There is none like You

among gods, my Master,

and nothing like Your works.¹

footnotes: ¹ Tehillim 86:8.

Your Kingship is the kingship for all worlds

and Your dominion is in every generation.²

footnotes: ² Tehillim 145:13.

Adonoy is King, Adonoy was King,

Adonoy will be King forever and ever.

Adonoy will give strength to His people

Adonoy will bless His people with peace.³

footnotes: ³ Tehillim 29:11.

Father of compassion!

Do good, as You see fit, to Tziyon.

May You rebuild the walls of Yerushalayim.

For in You alone do we trust,

King,

Almighty,

Exalted and Uplifted, Master of worlds.

And whenever the Ark traveled

Moshe would say: “Rise, Adonoy

and let Your enemies be scattered,

and those who hate You, flee before You.”

For from Tziyon will go forth the Torah,

and the word of Adonoy from Yerushalayim.

Blessed is He Who gave the Torah

to His people Yisrael in His holiness.

Adonoy, Adonoy,

Almighty, Compassionate, and Gracious,

Slow to anger

and Abounding in kindness and truth.

He preserves kindness

for thousands of generations,

forgiving iniquity, transgression and sin,

and He cleanses [the penitent].⁴

footnotes: ⁴ Shemos 34:6, 7.

Master of the universe!

Fulfil my request for good,

gratify my wishes and grant my request.

Forgive all my iniquities,

and all the iniquities of my family,

with forgiveness of lovingkindness

and compassion.

Purify me of my sins,

my iniquities and my transgressions.

Remember us favorably before You,

and be mindful of us

for deliverance and compassion.

Remember us for a good, long life

of peace, of maintenance and sustenance.

Give us bread to eat,

clothes to wear, and wealth and honor;

give us long life to meditate in Your Torah,

and to fulfill its commandments;

[give us] intelligence and understanding

to understand and be intellectually creative

in comprehending its profound concepts.

Send healing for all our sorrows,

and bless all the work of our hands.

Ordain for us good decrees

of deliverances and comforts,

and remove from us

all harsh decrees.

Cause the hearts of government leaders,

their advisors and officers,

to be favorably inclined toward us.

Amein! And may this be Your will.

May the words of my mouth be acceptable

and the thoughts of my heart — before You

Adonoy, my Rock and my Redeemer.

But as for me,

may my prayer to You, Adonoy,

be at a favorable time;

God, in the abundance of Your kindness,

answer me with the truth of Your deliverance.⁵
