ערבית אחר התפלה מתחילין לספור העומר שזמנו מתחלת ליל ט"ז בניסן ומונה והולך מ"ט יום. שכח לספור בתחלת הלילה הולך וסופר כל הלילה. ומצוה על כל אחד ואחד לספור לעצמו. וצריך לספור מעומד ולברך תחלה. וסופר הימים והשבועות כיצד ביום הראשון עומד ומברך על ספירת העומר היום יום אחד עד שמגיע לשבעה ימים ואז יאמר היום שבעה ימים שהם שבוע אחד וביום שמונה יאמר היום שמונה ימים שהם שבוע אחד ויום אחד עד שיגיע לי"ד יאמר היום ארבעה עשר ימים שהם ב' שבועות וכן לעולם. (טור או"ח תפ"ט). ועתה בעונותינו שנתבטלה הבאת העומר אין הספירה מן התורה אלא מדרבנן זכר למקדש. ואם נסתפק לו אם מנה או לא מנה חוזר ומונה בלא ברכה. (אבודרהם).

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
*The Omer is counted from the second night of Pesach until the night before Shavuos. The counting of forty-nine days (seven weeks) between the Festival of Pesach and Shavuos (the Feast of Weeks), connects the exodus from Egypt with the festival of the giving of the Torah. Just as one who awaits a most intimate friend on a certain day counts the days in eager anticipation of his arrival, so do we count the days from our liberation till the day we receive the Torah, which is the culmination and fulfillment of our freedom. It is proper to count the Omer at the beginning of the night, usually after the Maariv Service, and the Omer should be counted while standing.*

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
To Him, Who grants victory:¹ a psalm with instrumental music, a song. [May] God favor us and bless us, [may He] cause His countenance to shine among us forever; [so] that Your way become known on earth, [and] Your deliverance among all nations. Peoples will thank You, God, all the peoples will thank You. Nations will rejoice and sing when You judge the peoples justly, and lead the nations upon the earth forever. Peoples will thank You, God, all the peoples will thank You. The earth will have yielded its produce; God, our God, will have blessed us. God will bless us, and they will fear Him— all [men even from] the ends of the earth.

footnotes:
¹ Psalm 67 is recited because the seven verses which follow the introductory verse contain 49 words corresponding to the seven weeks (49 days) that link Pesach to the giving of the Torah on Shavuos.

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
Master of the universe, You commanded us through the hands of Your servant, Moses, to count the Omer in order to purify us from our evil and defilement. As You have written in Your Torah: And you shall count for yourselves, from the day after the day of rest, from the day you bring the *omer* as the wave-offering, seven complete weeks, shall there be; until the day following the seventh week shall you count fifty days, in order to cleanse the souls of Your people Israel from their impurities. Therefore, may it be Your will, Adonoy, our God, and God of our fathers, that in the merit of the Omer which I counted today, may any defect I have caused be rectified. May I be purified and sanctified with sublime holiness, and thereby may abundant bounty be bestowed upon all the worlds. May it rectify our being, our spirit and our souls from every baseness and defect, and may it purify us and sanctify us with Your sublime holiness. Amen, Selah.
