**עֲנֵֽנוּ** יְהֹוָה עֲנֵֽנוּ בְּיוֹם צוֹם תַּעֲנִיתֵֽנוּ. כִּי בְצָרָה גְדוֹלָה אֲנָֽחְנוּ. אַל־תֵּֽפֶן אֶל־רִשְׁעֵֽנוּ וְאַל־תַּסְתֵּר פָּנֶֽיךָ מִמֶּֽנּוּ וְאַל־תִּתְעַלַּם מִתְּ֒חִנָּתֵֽנוּ. הֱיֵה נָא קָרוֹב לְשַׁוְעָתֵֽנוּ. יְהִי־נָא חַסְדְּ֒ךָ לְנַחֲמֵֽנוּ. טֶֽרֶם נִקְרָא אֵלֶֽיךָ עֲנֵֽנוּ. כַּדָּבָר שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר וְהָיָה טֶֽרֶם יִקְרָֽאוּ וַאֲנִי אֶעֱנֶה. עוֹד הֵם מְדַבְּ֒רִים וַאֲנִי אֶשְׁמָע. כִּי אַתָּה יְהֹוָה הָעוֹנֶה בְּעֵת צָרָה. פּוֹדֶה וּמַצִּיל בְּכָל־עֵת צָרָה וְצוּקָה:

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
Answer us, Adonoy, answer us on the day of our fasting, for we are in great trouble. Do not regard our wickedness, do not conceal Your countenance from us, and do not be unmindful of our supplication. Please be near to our cry, let Your loving kindness console us. Even before we call unto You, answer us, as it is said: “And it shall come to pass that before they call I will answer;⁸ while they are yet speaking, I will hear. For You, Adonoy, are the One Who answers in time of trouble, Who redeems and rescues in all times of trouble and distress.
