Uva L'Tzion
This prayer is recited only at Shabbat mincha. It is full of quotes from Tanakh which depict angels calling out reminders of God's glory. It asks God to direct our hearts toward holiness, and reminds us that God is merciful; it expresses our hope that we may live to see messianic time when the work of creation will be complete. As it is written in Isaiah, "Trust in God forever, for in God is the strength of all the worlds." (by Rabbi Rachel Barenblat)
'Redemption will come to those who make teshuvah,' says ADONAI. 'And this is My covenant with them: My spirit that is upon you, My words which I have given you, will not leave you or your children, now or ever.'
You, O God, are holy, enthroned on our prayers; and we are like the fire-angels on high, singing one to another, Holy, Holy, Holy is ADONAI of hosts. God's Presence fills the world!
We grant one another permission to pray; we remind ourselves that God's holiness exists both here and in the highest heavens.
We remember the vision of Ezekiel: "A spiritwind carried me away and I heard behind me the sound of a great roaring which said, Blessed is the Presence of ADONAI from wherever it shall be, accompanied by the beating of vast angels' wings, the sound of a great roaring."
Together we ask:
Help us to pray like the angels
in whose hearts and minds
holy holy holy
ricochets like a laser beam.
Open our hearts to You, God,
and to Your Torah,
so that our souls might sing to You
and not be stilled.
From the birthplace of creation,
please, God
send us redemption: help us
transform ourselves,
turn our hearts toward holiness,
stir us to create healing,
open our eyes to Your presence
everywhere, everywhere.

Torah Service
Stand. From the moment the Ark is opened until the Torah is returned to it, one must conduct themselves with the utmost respect, and avoid unnecessary conversation. It is commendable to kiss the Torah with another object (tzitzit, siddur, etc.) as it is carried to the bimah [reading table] and back to the Ark. One should turn as the Torah makes its circuit around the congregation to face the Torah always.
The Ark is opened; before the Torah is removed the congregation recites:
וַיְהִי בִּנְסֽוֹעַ הָאָרֹן וַיֹּֽאמֶר משֶׁה, קוּמָה ׀ יְיָ, וְיָפֻֽצוּ אֹיְבֶֽיךָ, וְיָנֻֽסוּ מְשַׂנְאֶֽיךָ מִפָּנֶֽיךָ: כִּי מִצִּיּוֹן תֵּצֵא תוֹרָה , וּדְבַר יְיָ מִירוּשָלָֽיִם: בָּרוּךְ שֶׁנָּתַן תּוֹרָה לְעַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל בִּקְדֻשָּׁתוֹ: |
Vay'hi binsoa haaron vayomer Moshe: Kuma ADONAI v'yafutsu oy'vecha v'yanusu m'sanecha mipanecha. Ki miTsion teitsei Torah ud'var ADONAI mirushalayim. Baruch shenatan Torah l'amo Yisraeil bikdushato. |
When the Ark would travel, Moses would say, 'Arise, ADONAI, and let Your foes be scattered, let those who hate You flee from You.' For from Zion the Torah will come forth and the word of ADONAI from Jerusalem. Blessed is He Who gave the Torah to His people Israel in His holiness.
B'rich Sh'meh
Blessed is the Name of the Master of the
universe,
blessed
is Your crown and
Your place. May Your favor remain
with Your
people
Israel forever; may
You display the salvation of
Your right hand
to
Your people in Your
Holy Temple, to benefit us
with the goodness of
Your luminescence and
to accept our prayers with
mercy. May it be
Your
will that You extend
our lives with goodness
and that I be
numbered
among the righteous;
that You have mercy on me
and protect
me, all that
is mine and that is
Your people Israel’s. It
is You Who
nourishes all
and sustains all;
You control everything. It
is You
Who control kings,
and kingship is
Yours. I am a servant of
the Holy
One Blessed is He,
and I prostrate
myself before Him and
before the
glory of His Torah at
all times. Not
in any man do I put
trust, nor
on any angel do I rely -
only on the
God of heaven Who is
the God of
truth, Whose Torah is truth
and Whose
prophets are true
and Who acts
liberally with kindness and
truth. In
Him do I trust,
and to His
glorious and holy Name do I
declare
praises.
*May it be
Your will
that You open my heart to the
Torah and
that You fulfill
the wishes
of my heart and the heart of Your
entire
people Israel for
good, for
life, and for peace. (Amen.)

The Torah is removed from the Ark and presented to the assistant, who accepts it in his right arm. The assistant turns to Ark, bows and raises the Torah, and recites:
גַדְּלוּ לַיְיָ אִתִּי, וּנְרוֹמְמָה שְׁמוֹ יַחְדָּו. |
Gadlu laADONAI iti un'rom'ma sh'mo yachdav. |
Declare the greatness of ADONAI with me, and let us exalt His Name together.
The assistant turns to the right and carries the Torah in a circuit around to the bimah, as the congregation responds:
לְךָ יְיָ הַגְּדֻלָּה וְהַגְּבוּרָה וְהַתִּפְאֶֽרֶת וְהַנֵּֽצַח וְהַהוֹד, כִּי כֹל בַּשָּׁמַֽיִם וּבָאָֽרֶץ: לְךָ יְיָ הַמַּמְלָכָה וְהַמִּתְנַשֵּׂא לְכֹל לְרֹאשׁ: |

Yours, ADONAI, is the greatness, the strength, the splendor, the triumph, and the glory; even everything in heaven and earth; Yours, ADONAI, is the kingdom, and the sovereignty over every leader.
Rom'mu
רוֹמְמוּ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַהֲדוֹם רַגְלָיו קָדוֹשׁ הוּא: רוֹמְמוּ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ, וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְהַר קָדְשׁוֹ, כִּי קָדוֹשׁ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ: |

Exalt ADONAI, our God, and bow at His footstool; He is Holy! Exalt ADONAI, our God, land bow to His Holy Mountain; for holy is ADONAI our God.
אַב הָרַחֲמִים, הוּא יְרַחֵם עַם עֲמוּסִים, וְיִזְכּוֹר בְּרִית אֵיתָנִים, וְיַצִּיל נַפְשׁוֹתֵֽינוּ מִן הַשָּׁעוֹת הָרָעוֹת, וְיִגְעַר בְּיֵֽצֶר הָרַע מִן הַנְּשׂוּאִים, וְיָחוֹן אֹתָֽנוּ לִפְלֵיטַת עוֹלָמִים, וִימַלֵּא מִשְׁאֲלוֹתֵֽינוּ בְּמִדָּה טוֹבָה יְשׁוּעָה וְרַחֲמִים: |

May the Father of compassion have mercy on the nation that is borne by Him, and may He remember the covenant of the spiritually mighty. May He rescue our souls from the bad times, and upbraid the Evil Inclination to leave those borne by Him, graciously make us an eternal remnant, and fulfill our requests in good measure, for salvation and mercy.
All recite:
You who cling to ADONAI, your God, you are all alive today.

Parting with the Torah
יְהַלְלוּ אֶת שֵׁם יְיָ, כִּי נִשְׂגָּב שְׁמוֹ לְבַדּוֹ. |
Y'hal'lu et sheim ADONAI, ki nisgav sh'mo l'vado. |
Let them praise the Name of ADONAI, for His Name alone will have been exalted.
Congregation responds:
הוֹדוֹ עַל אֶֽרֶץ וְשָׁמָֽיִם. וַיָּֽרֶם קֶֽרֶן לְעַמּוֹ, תְּהִלָּה לְכָל חֲסִידָיו, לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עַם קְרוֹבוֹ, הַלְלוּיָהּ. |
Hodo al eretz v'shamayim vayarem keren l'amo t'hilah l'kol chasidav liv'nei Yisraeil am k'rovo Hal'luYah. |
His glory is above earth and heaven. And He will have exalted the pride of His people, causing praise for all His devout ones, for the Children of Israel, His intimate people. Halleluyah!
The Torah makes its final circuit around the congregation.
עֵץ חַיִּים הִיא לַמַּחֲזִיקִים בָּהּ, וְתֹמְכֶֽיהָ מְאֻשָּׁר. דְּרָכֶֽיהָ דַרְכֵי נֹֽעַם, וְכָל נְתִיבוֹתֶֽיהָ שָׁלוֹם. הֲשִׁיבֵֽנוּ יְיָ, אֵלֶֽיךָ וְנָשֽׁוּבָה, חַדֵּשׁ יָמֵֽינוּ כְּקֶֽדֶם. |

It is a tree of life for those who grasp it, and its supporters are praiseworthy. Its ways are ways of pleasantness and all its paths are peace. Lengthy days are at its right; at its left are wealth and honor. ADONAI desired, for the sake of its [Israel's] righteousness, that the Torah be made great and glorious.
The Torah is returned to the Ark
And when it rested he would say, Return ADONAI to the myriad thousands of Israel. Arise, ADONAI, to Your resting place, You and the Ark of Your strength. Let Your priests be clothed in righteousness, and Your devout ones will sing joyously. For the sake of David, Your servant, turn not away the face of Your anointed. For I have given you a good teaching, do not forsake My Torah.
The Ark is closed.

You are One, Your name is One, and who compares to Your people Israel, one nation to whom You gave the beauty, splendor and redemption of the holy day of rest? Abraham rejoiced in it, Isaac celebrated in it, Jacob and his children took comfort in it. It is the rest of love and magnanimity, the rest of truth and faith, the rest of peace and wholeness, the complete rest that You have given us to be with You. May your children reccognize and know that from you comes their rest, and through their rest, they will sanctify Your Name.

Meditation after the Amidah
Elohai N'tzor
My God, guard my tongue from evil and my lips from speaking deceitfully. To those who curse me, let my soul be Silent; and let my soul be like dust to everyone. Open my heart to Your Torah, then my soul will pursue Your commandments. As for all those who design evil against me, speedily nullify their counsel and disrupt their design. Act for Your Name's sake; act for Your right hand's sake; act for Your sanctity's sake; act for Your Torah's sake. That Your beloved ones may be given rest; let Your right hand save, and respond to me.
May the expressions of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before You, ADONAI, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Bow and take three steps back. Bow left and say, 'He Who makes peace ...’ bow right and say, 'may He make peace ...’ bow forward and say, 'and upon ... Amen.'
עֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו הוּא יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵֽינוּ וְעַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאִמְרוּ אָמֵן: |
Oseh shalom bimromav, hu yaaseh shalom aleinu v'al kol Yisraeil, v'im'ru: Amein. |
He Who makes peace in His heights, may He make peace upon us, and upon all Israel. Now respond: Amen.
May it be Your will, ADONAI our God and the God of our forefathers, that the Holy Temple be rebuilt, speedily in our days. Grant us our share in Your Torah, and may we serve You there with reverence, as in days of old and in former years. Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to ADONAI, as in days of old and in former years.

It is our duty to praise the Master of all, to ascribe greatness to the Molder of primeval creation, for He has not made us like the nations of the lands and has not emplaced us like the families of the earth; for He has not assigned our portion like theirs nor our lot like all their multitudes. But we bend our knees, bow, and acknowledge our thanks before the King Who reigns over kings, the Holy One, Blessed is He. He stretches out heaven and establishes earth's foundation, the seat of His homage is in the heavens above and His powerful Presence is in the loftiest heights. He is our God and there is none other. True is our King, there is nothing beside Him, as it is written in His Torah: ‘You are to know this day and take to your heart that ADONAI is the only God - in heaven above and on the earth below - there is none other.’
עַל כֵּן נְקַוֶּה לְךָ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ, לִרְאוֹת מְהֵרָה בְּתִפְאֶֽרֶת עֻזֶּךָ, לְהַעֲבִיר גִלוּלִים מִן הָאָֽרֶץ וְהָאֱלִילִים כָּרוֹת יִכָּרֵתוּן . לְתַקֵּן עוֹלָם בְּמַלְכוּת שַׁדַּי, וְכָל בְּנֵי בָשָׂר יִקְרְאוּ בִשְׁמֶֽךָ. לְהַפְנוֹת אֵלֶֽיךָ כָּל רִשְׁעֵי אָֽרֶץ. יַכִּֽירוּ וְיֵדְעוּ כָּל יוֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל, כִּי לְךָ תִּכְרַע כָּל בֶּֽרֶךְ, תִּשָּׁבַע כָּל לָשׁוֹן: לְפָנֶֽיךָ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ יִכְרְעוּ וְיִפֹּֽלוּ. וְלִכְבוֹד שִׁמְךָ יְקָר יִתֵּֽנוּ. וִיקַבְּלוּ כֻלָּם אֶת עוֹל מַלְכוּתֶֽךָ. וְתִמְלֹךְ עֲלֵיהֶם מְהֵרָה לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד. כִּי הַמַּלְכוּת שֶלְךָ הִיא, וּלְעֽוֹלְמֵי עַד תִּמְלוֹךְ בְּכָבוֹד: |

Ki ha malchut shel'cha hi, ul'ol'mei ad timloch b'chavod. |
Therefore we put our hope in You, ADONAI our God, that we may
soon see Your
mighty splendor, to remove detestable idolatry from
the earth, and
false gods will be utterly cut off, to perfect the
universe through
the Almighty's sovereignty. Then all humanity will
call upon Your
Name, to turn all the earth's wicked toward You. All
the world's
inhabitants will recognize and know that to You every
knee should
bend, every tongue should swear. Before You, ADONAI, our
God, they
will bend every knee and cast themselves down and to the
glory of
Your Name they will render homage, and they will all accept
upon
themselves the yoke of Your kingship that You may reign over
them
soon and eternally. For the kingdom is Yours and You will reign
for
all eternity in glory as it is written in Your Torah: ADONAI
shall
reign for all eternity.
Chazzan - And it is said: ADONAI will
be
King over all the world - on that day ADONAI will be One and His
Name will be One.
כַּכָּתוּב בְּתוֹרָתֶֽךָ, יְיָ יִמְלֹךְ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד: «וְנֶאֱמַר, וְהָיָה יְיָ לְמֶֽלֶךְ עַל כָּל הָאָֽרֶץ, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא יִהְיֶה יְיָ אֶחָד, וּשְמוֹ אֶחָד: |
Kakatuv b'toratecha: ADONAI yimloch l'olam vaed. Veneemar: v'haya ADONAI l'melech al kol haaretz; bayom hahu yih'ye ADONAI echad, ush'mo echad. |
This occurence of Mourner's Kaddish is included even if there are no mourners present. As always, the Kaddish is omitted in the absence of a minyan. Mourners rise; all others remain standing if standing, seated if seated. Leader and mourners recite:

Havdalah
A cup of wine is taken in the right hand, and the following is said.
הִנֵּה אֵל יְשׁוּעָתִי, אֶבְטַח וְלֹא אֶפְחָד, כִּי עָזִּי וְזִמְרָת יָהּ יְיָ, וַיְהִי לִי לִישׁוּעָה. וּשְׁאַבְתֶּם מַֽיִם בְּשָׂשׂוֹן, מִמַּעַיְנֵי הַיְשׁוּעָה. לַייָ הַיְשׁוּעָה, עַל עַמְּךָ בִרְכָתֶֽךָ סֶּֽלָה. יְיָ צְבָאוֹת עִמָּֽנוּ, מִשְׂגָּב לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶֽלָה. יְיָ צְבָאוֹת, אַשְרֵי אָדָם בֹּטֵֽחַ בָּךְ. יְיָ הוֹשִֽׁיעָה, הַמֶּֽלֶךְ יַעֲנֵֽנוּ בְיוֹם קָרְאֵֽנוּ. לַיְּהוּדִים הָיְתָה אוֹרָה וְשִׂמְחָה וְשָׂשׂוֹן וִיקָר. כֵּן תִּהְיֶה לָּֽנוּ. כּוֹס יְשׁוּעוֹת אֶשָּׂא, וּבְשֵׁם יְיָ אֶקְרָא. |

Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid: for God the Lord is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation. Salvation belongs to Lord: Your blessing be upon Your people. (Selah.) The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah.) The Jews had light and joy and gladness and honour. (So be it with us.) I will lift the cup of salvation, and call upon the Name of the Lord.
