Righteousness is Yours, Adonoy

while shame is ours.

How can we complain?

What can we say?

What can we speak?

And how can we justify ourselves?

Let us search into our ways and examine them,

and return to You;

for Your right hand is extended

to receive those who repent.

Not with virtue nor with good deeds

do we come before You,

but like the poor and needy

we knock at Your door.

At Your door, do we knock,

Merciful and Gracious One.

Please do not turn us away empty-handed

from Your Presence.

From Your Presence our King

turn us not away empty-handed;

for You hear [our] prayers.

You Who hears prayer,

unto You does all flesh come.

All flesh shall come

to prostrate themselves before You, Adonoy.

They will come and prostrate themselves

before You, my Master

and they will give honor to Your Name.

Come let us prostrate ourselves and bow;

let us kneel before Adonoy, our Maker.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving,

His courtyards with praise,

give thanks to Him, bless His Name.

As for us, through Your abundant kindness

we will enter Your House;

we will prostrate ourselves

toward Your Holy Sanctuary in awe of You.

Behold, bless Adonoy—

all [you] servants of Adonoy,

who stand in the House of Adonoy

in the night.

Lift your hands to the Sanctuary

and bless Adonoy.

Let us come to His Dwelling Places,

let us prostrate ourselves at His footstool.

Exalt Adonoy, our God,

and prostrate yourselves at His footstool,

Holy is He!

Exalt Adonoy, our God

and prostrate yourselves at His holy mountain,

for Adonoy our God is holy.

Prostrate yourselves before Adonoy

in the splendor of holiness,

tremble before Him all [peoples of] the earth.

We will prostrate ourselves

toward Your Holy Sanctuary,

and give thanks to Your Name

for Your kindness and for Your truth;

for You have magnified

Your word far beyond Your Name.

Adonoy, God of Hosts,

who is like You, a mighty God;

and Your faithfulness is round about You.

For who in the skies

can be compared to Adonoy,

who can be likened to Adonoy

among the sons of the mighty?

For You are great

and do wondrous things;

You alone are God.

For great beyond the heavens

is Your kindness,

and until the skies is Your truth.

Great is Adonoy and highly extolled,

and His greatness is unfathomable.

For great is Adonoy and most highly extolled,

and awesome is He above all gods.

For a great Almighty is Adonoy

and a great King over all gods.

For who is so mighty in heaven or on earth

that can duplicate Your works

and Your power.

Who would not fear You, King of nations?

For to You it is fitting;

for among all the wise ones of the nations,

and in all their kingdoms,

there is none like You.

There is none like You, Adonoy

great are You,

and great is Your Name in might.

Yours is an arm with might

strong is Your hand, exalted is Your right hand.

Yours is the day, also Yours is the night,

You established [the] luminary and [the] sun.

For in His hands are the depths of the earth,

and the heights of the mountains are His.

Who can recount the mighty deeds of Adonoy,

or cause to be heard all His praise?

Yours Adonoy

is the greatness, the might, the glory,

the victory and the beauty,

for all that is in heaven and on earth [is Yours];

Yours Adonoy, is the kingdom,

and You are uplifted over all rulers.

Yours are the heavens,

also Yours is the earth,

the inhabited world and its fullness;

You have founded them.

You set all the borders of the earth,

summer and winter, You formed them.

You crushed the heads of Leviathan,

You gave him as food to the people of legions.

You split open the fountain and brook,

You dried up mighty rivers.

You crumbled the sea with Your strength;

You shattered the heads of sea monsters

upon the waters.

You rule over the majesty of the sea;

when it raises its waves, You still them.

Great is Adonoy and highly extolled

in the city of our God,

the mountain of His Sanctuary.

Adonoy of Hosts, God of Israel,

enthroned upon the cherubim

You alone are God.

The Almighty is revered

in the great council of the holy ones

and is awe inspiring

over all that are about Him.

And the heavens will praise Your wonders,

Adonoy,

and Your faithfulness [will be praised]

in the assembly of holy ones.

Come let us sing to Adonoy,

let us sound the shofar

to the Rock of our deliverance.

Let us greet His Presence with thanksgiving,

with hymns let us raise our voices unto Him.

Righteousness and justice

are the foundations of Your throne,

kindness and truth precede Your Presence.

For together let us take sweet counsel;

into the House of God

let us walk with the throngs.

For the sea is His, and He made it;

and the dry land, His hands formed.

For in His hand

is the soul of every living thing,

and the spirit of all human flesh.

The soul is Yours,

and the body is Your doing,

have pity on Your work.

The soul is Yours, and the body is Yours,

Adonoy! Act [on our behalf]

for the sake of Your Name.

We have come [relying] on Your Name,

Adonoy! Act [on our behalf]

for the sake of Your Name.

For the sake of the glory of Your Name,

for gracious and merciful Almighty

is Your Name,

For the sake of Your Name, Adonoy,

pardon our iniquity, for it is great.

Pardon us our Father,

because of our great foolishness,

we have sinned.

Forgive us our King,

for our iniquity is great.
