Remember not the sins of our ancestors;

let Your compassion come swiftly toward us,

for we have been brought very low.

The sins of our youth and our transgressions,

remember not;

with Your kindliness remember us

for the sake of Your goodness, Adonoy.

Remember Your mercies, Adonoy,

and kindlinesses

for they are from the beginning of the world.

Remember us Adonoy

with favor for Your people

recall us with Your deliverance.

Remember Your congregation

which You have acquired of old,

You have redeemed the tribe

of Your inheritance,

this mountain of Zion where You have dwelled.

Remember, Adonoy, the affection of Jerusalem,

the love of Zion, forget not until eternity.

Remember, Adonoy,

to the sons of Edom, the day of Jerusalem,

[it was they] who said,

“Raze it, raze it to its very foundations.”

You will arise

and have compassion on Zion,

for it is time to be gracious to her,

for the appointed time has come.

Remember Abraham, Isaac, Israel,

Your servants,

to whom You swore by Your very Self,

and You said to them:

“I will multiply your seed

as the stars of the heavens;

and all this land that I have promised,

I will give to your descendants,

and they will inherit it forever.”

Remember Your servants,

Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob;

do not regard the stubborness of this people,

or their wickedness, or their sin.

Do not, we beseech You

place upon us this sin,

wherein we have acted foolishly and sinned.

We have sinned, our Rock;

pardon us our Creator.

Remember to us the covenant of the Patriarchs,

as You promised,

“And I will remember my covenant with Jacob,

and also my covenant with Isaac,

and also my covenant with Abraham

will I remember,”

and the land I will remember.

Remember to us the covenant of the ancestors,

as You promised,

“And I will remember for their sake,

the covenant with their ancestors,

whom I brought out

of the land of Egypt,

in the sight of the nations;

to be their God

I am Adonoy.”

Do unto us as You promised,

“And yet for all that,

when they are in the land of their enemies,

I will not reject them

and I will not abhor them, to destroy them,

to annul My covenant with them;

for I am Adonoy, their God.”

Be accessible to us when we seek You,

as it is written:

“And from there

you will seek Adonoy, your God,

and you will find Him;

if you search after Him

with all your heart

and with all your soul.”

Open our hearts

to love Your Name,

as it is written in Your Torah:

“And Adonoy, your God will open your heart,

and the heart of your descendants,

to love Adonoy, your God,

with all your heart,

and with all your soul,

that you may live.”

Sprinkle clean water upon us,

and cleanse us, as it is written:

“And I will sprinkle clean water upon you,

and you will be clean;

from all your defilements,

and from all your idols,

I will cleanse you.”

Sweep aside our transgressions

as a thick cloud and as a mist,

as You have promised:

“I have swept away like a thick cloud

your transgressions,

and like a mist, your sins;

return to Me, for I have redeemed You.”

Blot out our transgressions for Your sake,

as You promised:

“I, I [alone] am He

Who blots out your transgressions

for My own sake;

and your sins, I will not recall.”

Make our sins as white as snow or wool,

as it is written:

“Come now, let us reason together,

says Adonoy,

though your sins be as scarlet,

they shall be as white as snow;

though they be red as crimson,

they shall become [white] as wool.”

Have compassion on us and do not destroy us,

as it is written:

“For an Almighty of mercy is Adonoy,

your God;

He will not abandon you or destroy you,

and He will not forget

the covenant of your fathers

which He swore to them.”

Gather our dispersed ones, as it is written:

“If your dispersed

are in the farthermost part of heaven,

from there Adonoy, your God will gather you,

and from there He will take you.”

Bring back our captivity

and have compassion on us,

as it is written:

“And Adonoy, your God will return

your captivity and have compassion on you;

and He will again gather you

from [among] all the peoples,

where Adonoy, your God has scattered you.”

Bring us to Your holy mountain,

and make us joyful in Your House of Prayer,

as it is written:

“And I will bring them to My holy mountain,

and make them joyful in My House of Prayer;

their burnt-offerings and sacrifices

will be accepted with favor on My Altar,

for My House,

will be called a House of Prayer

for all peoples.”
