Ma Tovu
מַה טֹּֽבוּ אֹהָלֶֽיךָ יַעֲקֹב, מִשְכְּנֹתֶֽיךָ יִשְרָאֵל. וַאֲנִי בְּרֹב חַסְדְּךָ אָבוֹא בֵיתֶֽךָ, אְֶשְתַּחֲוֶה אֶל הֵיכַל קָדְְשְךָ בְיִרְאָתֶֽךָ. יְיָ אָהַֽבְתִּי מְעוֹן בֵּיתֶֽךָ, וּמְקוֹם מִשְׁכַּן כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ. וַאֲנִי אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶה וְאֶכְרָֽעָה, אֶבְרְכָה לִפְנֵי יְיָ עֹשִׂי. וַאֲנִי, תְפִלָּתִי לְךָ יְיָ, עֵת רָצוֹן, אֱלֹהִים בְּרָב חַסְדֶּֽךָ, עֲנֵֽנִי בֶּאֱמֶת יִשְׁעֶֽךָ. |

How goodly are your tents, O Jacob, your dwelling places, O Israel. As for me, through Your abundant kindness I will enter Your house; I will prostrate myself toward Your Holy Sanctuary in awe of You. O ADONAI, I love the House where You dwell, and the place where Your glory resides. I shall prostrate myself and bow, I shall kneel before ADONAI my Maker. As for me, may my prayer to You, ADONAI, be at an opportune time; O God, in Your abundant kindness, answer me with the truth of Your Salvation.
Blessings of the Torah
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְשָֽׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו, וְצִוָּֽנוּ לַעֲסוֹק בְּדִבְרֵי תוֹרָה: וְהַעֲרֶב נָא יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ אֶת דִּבְרֵי תוֹרָתֶךָ בְּפִֽינוּ, וּבְפִי עַמְּךָ בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְנִהְיֶה אֲנַֽחְנוּ וְצֶאֱצָאֵֽינוּ וְצֶאֱצָאֵי עַמְּךָ בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, כֻּלָּֽנוּ יוֹדְעֵי שְׁמֶֽךָ, וְלוֹמְדֵי תוֹרָתֶֽךָ לִשְׁמָהּ: בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, הַמְלַמֵּד תּוֹרָה לְעַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל: |

May we and our offspring and the offspring of Your people, the House of Israel – all of us – know Your Name and study Your Torah for its own sake. Blessed are You, ADONAI, Who teaches Torah to His people Israel.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר בָּֽחַר בָּֽנוּ מִכָּל הָעַמִּים, וְנָֽתַן לָֽנוּ אֶת תּוֹרָתוֹ: בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, נוֹתֵן הַתּוֹרָה: |

Numbers 6:24-26
יְבָרֶכְךְ יְיָ וְיִשְׁמְרֶֽךָ: יָאֵר יְיָ פָּנָיו אֵלֶֽיךָ וִיחֻנֶּךָּ: יִשָׂא יְיָ פָּנָיו אֵלֶיךָ וְיָשֵׂם לְךָ שָׁלוֹם: |
Y'varekka ADONAI v'yishm'reka. Yaeir ADONAI panav eileka vichuneka. Yisa ADONAI panav eileka v’yasem l’ka shalom. |
May Adonai bless you and safeguard you. May Adonai illuminate His countenance for you and be gracious to you. May Adonai turn His countenance to you and establish peace for you.
Mishnah, Peah 1:1
אֵלּוּ דְבָרִים שֶׁאֵין לָהֶם שִׁעוּר: הַפֵּאָה וְהַבִּכּוּרִים וְהָרַאָיוֹן וּגְמִילוּת חֲסָדִים וְתַלְמוּד תּוֹרָה: |
Eilu d’varim she’ein lahem shiur. Hapeiah v’habikurim v’hara’ayon ug’milut chasadim v’talmud Torah. |
These are the precepts that have no prescribed measure: the corner of the field [which must be left for the poor], the firstfruit offering, the pilgrimage, acts of kindness, and Torah study.
Talmud, Shabbat 127a
אֵלּוּ דְבָרִים שֶׁאָדָם אוֹכֵל פֵּרוֹתֵיהֶם בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה וְהַקֶּֽרֶן קַיֶּֽמֶת לוֹ לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא, וְאֵֽלוּ הֵן: כִּבּוּד אָב וָאֵם, וּגְּמִילוּת חֲסָדִים, וְהַשְׁכָּמַת בֵּית הַמִּדְרָשׁ שַׁחֲרִית וְעַרְבִית, וְהַכְנָסַת אוֹרְחִים, וּבִקּוּר חוֹלִים, וְהַכְנָסַת כַּלָּה, וּלְוָיַת הַמֵּת, וְעִיוּן תְּפִלָּה, וַהֲבָאַת שָׁלוֹם בֵּין אָדָם לַחֲבֵרוֹ, וְתַלְמוּד תּוֹרָה כְּנֶֽגֶד כֻּלָּם. |
Eilu d’varim she’adam okeil peroteihem ba’olam hazeh v’hakeren lo laolam habah, v’eilu hen. Kibud av vaeim, ug’milut chasadim, v’hash’kamat beit hamidrash shacharit v’arvit, v’hak’nasat orchim, uvikur cholim, v’hak’nasat kalah, ulvayat hamet, v’iyun t’filah, va’havaat shalom bein adam la’chaveiro, v’talmud Torah k’neged kulam. |
These are the precepts whose fruits a person enjoys in this world, but whose principle remains in the World to Come, They are: the honor due to father and mother, acts of kindness, early attendance at the house of study morning and evening, hospitality to guests, visiting the sick, providing for a bride, escorting the dead, absorption in prayer, bringing peace between man and his fellow – and the study of Torah is equivalent to them all.
Mattai 5:18-19
כִּי אָמֵן אֹמֵר אֲנִי לָכֶם עַד כִּי יַעַבְרוּ הַשָׁמַיִם וְהָאָרֶץ לֹא תַּעֲבֹר יוֹד אַחַת אוֹ קוֹץ אֶחָד מִן־הַתּוֹרָה עַד אֲשֶׁר יְקֻיַּם הַכֹּל. לָכֵן הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יָפֵר אַחַת מִן הַמִּצְוֹת הַקְּטַנּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה וִילַמֵּד אֶת־בְּנֵי הָאָדָם לַעֲשׂוֹת כָּמוֹהוּ קָטוֹן יִקָּרֵא לוֹ בְּמַלְכוּת הַשָׁמָיִם וַאֲשֶׁר יַעָשֶׂה וִילַמֵּד אוֹתָן לָזֶה גָּדוֹל יִקָּרֵא בְּמַלְכוּת הַשָׁמָיִם. |
For, amen, I say to you, until Heaven and Earth pass away, not one yod or one thorn will pass away from the Torah until all has been established. Therefore the man who nullifies one of these minor mitzvot and teaches men to do like him will be called small in the Kingdom of Heaven, but whoever does and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Elohai Neshama
אֱלֹהַי, נְשָׁמָה שֶׁנָּתַֽתָּ בִּי טְהוֹרָה הִיא. אַתָּה בְרָאתָהּ, אַתָּה יְצַרְתָּהּ, אַתָּה נְפַחְתָּהּ בִּי, וְאַתָּה מְשַׁמְּרָהּ בְּקִרְבִּי, וְאַתָּה עָתִיד לִטְּלָהּ מִמֶּֽנִי, וּלְהַחֲזִירָהּ בִּי לֶעָתִיד לָבוֹא. כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהַנְּשְָׁמָה בְקִרְבִּי, מוֹדֶה [מוֹדָה] אֲנִי לְפָנֶֽיךָ, יְיָ אֱלֹהַי וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתַי, רִבּוֹן כָּל הַמַּעֲשִׂים, אֲדוֹן כָּל הַנְּשָׁמוֹת. בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, הַמַּחֲזִיר נְשָׁמוֹת לִפְגָרִים מֵתִים. |
Elohai neshama shenatata bi t’horah hi. Atah v’ratah, atah y’tzartah, atah n’fachtah bi, v’atah m’sham’rah b’kir’bi, v’atah atid lit’lah mimeni, ul’hachazirah bi leatid lavo. Kol z’man shehan’shamah v’kir’bi, modeh [modah] ani l’faneka, ADONAI Elohai veilohei avotai, ribon kol hamaasim, adon kol han’shamot. Baruch atah ADONAI, hamachzir n’shamot lif’garim meitim. |
My God, the soul You placed within me is pure. You created it, You fashioned it, You breathed it into me, You safeguard it within me, and eventually You will take it from me, and restore it to me in the Time to Come. As long as the soul is within me, I gratefully thank You, ADONAI, my God and the God of my ancestors, Master of all works, Lord of all souls. Blessed are You, ADONAI, Who restores souls to the dead.

P'sukei D'zimrah - Verses of Praise
All Returns to Prayer
To pray is to bow
With my heart
In the direction of holiness.
To bow is to see
With my soul
Beauty and splendor.
To see is to bless
With my spirit
The glory of creation.
To bless is to yearn
With my breath
For the wisdom of the ages.
To yearn is to welcome
With my being
The hopes of tomorrow.
To welcome is to summon
With my sight
Awe and righteousness.
To summon is to pray
With my strength
For light to descend from heaven
And for peace to reign on earth.

In mercy do You give light to the earth and to all who dwell upon it, and in Your goodness do you renew every day, continuously, the work of Creation. How great are Your works, Adonai!

Our powerful God, our rock-like fortress, our shield of redemption, be a stronghold for us! Blessed God, great in knowledge, prepared and formed the rays of the sun. The beneficent One created honor for God's Name, and placed luminaries around God's might. The heads of God's legions, holy ones, exalters of the Almighty, are always relating the honor of God and God's holiness. May You be blessed, Adonai our God, beyond the praises of Your handiwork and beyond the brightness of the luminaries that You created—may they glorify You!

Bring us in peacefulness from the *four corners* of the earth and lead us with upright pride to our land. For You affect salvations, O God; You have chosen us from among every people and tongue.
Chazzan - And You have brought us close to Your great Name forever in truth, to offer praiseful thanks to You, and proclaim Your Oneness with love. Blessed are You, ADONAI, Who chooses His people Israel with love. (Cong. - Amen.)

Recite the next paragraph aloud together.
Deut. 6:5
וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת יְיָ | אֱלֹהֶיךָ, בְּכָל-לְבָֽבְךָ, וּבְכָל-נַפְשְׁךָ, וּבְכָל-מְאֹדֶֽךָ. וְהָיוּ הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה, אֲשֶׁר | אָֽנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיּוֹם, עַל-לְבָבֶֽךָ: וְשִׁנַּנְתָּם לְבָנֶיךָ, וְדִבַּרְתָּ בָּם בְּשִׁבְתְּךָ בְּבֵיתֶךָ, וּבְלֶכְתְּךָ בַדֶּרֶךְ וּֽבְשָׁכְבְּךָ, וּבְקוּמֶֽךָ. וקְשַׁרְתָּם לְאוֹת | עַל-יָדֶךָ, וְהָיוּ לְטֹטָפֹת בֵּין | עֵינֶֽיךָ, וּכְתַבְתָּם | עַל מְזֻזֹת בֵּיתֶךָ וּבִשְׁעָרֶֽיךָ: |

Uchtavtam, al m'zuzot beitecha, uvisharecha. |
You shall love ADONAI, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your resources. Let these matters that I command you today be upon your heart. Teach them thoroughly to your children and speak of them while you sit in your home, while you walk on the way, when you retire and when you arise. Bind them as a sign upon your arm and let them be tefillin between your eyes, and write them on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.
While reciting the second paragraph (Deuteronomy 11:13-21), concentrate on accepting all the commandments and the concept of reward and punishment.
Deuteronomy 11:13-21
וְהָיָה אִם-שָׁמֹעַ תִּשְׁמְעוּ אֶל-מִצְוֹתַי, אֲשֶׁר ׀ אָנֹכִי מְצַוֶּה ׀ אֶתְכֶם הַיּוֹם, לְאַהֲבָה אֶת יְיָ ׀ אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם, וּלְעָבְדוֹ בְּכָל-לְבַבְכֶם וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁכֶם. וְנָֽתַתִּי מְטַֽר-אַרְצְכֶם בְּעִתּוֹ, יוֹרֶה וּמַלְקוֹשׁ, וְאָֽסַפְתָּ דְגָנֶךָ וְתִירֽשְׁךָ וְיִצְהָרֶֽךָ. וְנָֽתַתִּי ׀ עֵשֶׂב ׀ בְּשָֽׂדְךָ לִבְהֶמְתֶּךָ, וְאָֽכַלְתָּ וְשָׂבָֽעְתָּ. הִשָּֽׁמְרוּ לָכֶם פֶּן-יִפְתֶּה לְבַבְכֶם, וְסַרְתֶּם וַעֲבַדְתֶּם ׀ אֱלֹהִים ׀ אֲחֵרִים וְהִשְׁתַּחֲוִיתֶם לָהֶם. וְחָרָה ׀ אַף-יְיָ בָּכֶם, וְעָצַר ׀ אֶת-הַשָּׁמַיִם וְלֹא-יִהְיֶה מָטָר, וְהָאֲדָמָה לֹא תִתֵּן אֶת-יְבוּלָהּ וַאֲבַדְתֶּם ׀ מְהֵרָה מֵעַל הָאָרֶץ הַטֹּבָה ׀ אֲשֶׁר ׀ יְיָ נֹתֵן לָכֶם: וְשַׂמְתֶּם ׀ אֶת דְּבָרַי ׀ אֵלֶּה עַל-לְבַבְכֶם וְעַל-נַפְשְׁכֶם וּקְשַׁרְתֶּם ׀ אֹתָם לְאוֹת ׀ עַל-יֶדְכֶם, וְהָיוּ לְטוֹטָפֹת בֵּין ׀ עֵינֵיכֶם: וְלִמַּדְתֶּם ׀ אֹתָם ׀ אֶת-בְּנֵיכֶם, לְדַבֵּר בָּם, בְּשִׁבְתְּךָ בְּבֵיתֶךָ, וּבְלֶכְתְּךָ בַדֶּרֶךְ, וּבְשָׁכְבְּךָ וּבְקוּמֶֽךָ: וּכְתַבְתָּם ׀ עַל-מְזוּזוֹת בֵּיתֶךָ וּבִשְׁעָרֶֽיךָ: לְמַעַן ׀ יִרְבּוּ ׀ יְמֵיכֶם וִימֵי בְנֵיכֶם עַל הָֽאֲדָמָה ׀ אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע ׀ יְיָ לַאֲבֹֽתֵיכֶם לָתֵת לָהֶם, כִּימֵי הַשָּׁמַיִם ׀ עַל-הָאָֽרֶץ: |
And it will come to pass that if you continually hearken to My commandments that I command you today, to love, ADONAI your God, and to serve Him, with all your heart and with all your Soul - then I will provide rain for your land in its proper time, the early and late rains, that you may gather in your grain, your wine, and your oil. I will provide grass in your field for your cattle and you will eat and be satisfied. Beware lest your heart be seduced and you turn astray and serve gods of others and bow to them. Then the wrath of ADONAI will blaze against you. He will restrain the heaven so there will be no rain and the ground will not yield its produce. And you will swiftly be banished from the goodly land which ADONAI gives you. Place these words of Mine upon your heart and upon your soul; bind them for a sign upon your arm and let them be tefillin between your eyes, Teach them to your children, to discuss them, while you sit in your home, while you walk on the way, when you retire and when you arise. And write them on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates. In order to prolong your days and the days of your children upon the ground that ADONAI has sworn to your ancestors to give them, like the days of the heaven on the earth.
The tzitzit are kissed at each mention of the word and at the end of the paragraph, and are passed before the eyes at 'that you may see it'.
Numbers 15:37-41
וַיֹּאמֶר | יְיָ | אֶל-מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹֽר: דַּבֵּר | אֶל-בְּנֵי | יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָֽמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם: וְעָשׂוּ לָהֶם צִיצִת עַל-כַּנְפֵי בִגְדֵיהֶם לְדֹֽרֹתָם, וְנָֽתְנוּ | עַל-צִיצִת הַכָּנָף פְּתִיל תְּכֵֽלֶת. וְהָיָה לָכֶם לְצִיצִת, וּרְאִיתֶם | אֹתוֹ וּזְכַרְתֶּם | אֶת-כָּל-מִצְוֹת | יְיָ, וַֽעֲשִׂיתֶם | אֹתָם, וְלֹא תָתוּרוּ | אַֽחֲרֵי לְבַבְכֶם וְאַֽחֲרֵי | עֵינֵיכֶם, אֲשֶׁר-אַתֶּם זֹנִים | אַחֲרֵיהֶֽם: לְמַעַן תִּזְכְּרוּ וַעֲשִׂיתֶם | אֶת-כָּל-מִצְוֹתָי, וִהְיִיתֶם קְדֹשִים לֵאלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם: אֲנִי יְיְ | אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם, אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִי | אֶתְכֶם | מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם, לִהְיוֹת לָכֶם לֵאלֹהִים, אֲנִי | יְיָ | אֱלֹהֵיכֶם: |

And ADONAI said to Moses saying: Speak to the Children of Israel and say to them that they are to make themselves tzitzit on the corners of their garments, throughout their generations. And they are to place upon the tzitzit of each corner a thread of techeilet. And it shall constitute tzitzit for you, that you may see it and remember all the commandments of ADONAI and perform them; and not explore after your heart and after your eyes after which you stray. So that you may remember and perform all My commandments; and be holy to your God. I am ADONAI, your God, Who has removed you from the land of Egypt to be a God to you. I am ADONAI your God - it is true.
Hebrews 1:1-3
Ha Elohim asher dibar mikedem pe’ahmim rahbot uvid’rahkim rahbot el hah-avot beyad hahnevi’im, dibayr alainu be’ah’kharit hai-yamim hah-aylleh b’yad hahbayn asher sam leyoh-raysh kol uv’yaho gam asah et hah-olahmim.

In the past God spoke to our fathers through the prophets, at many times in various ways; but now in the end of days He has spoken to us by the Messiah, His Son, who He appointed the heir of all things and through whom He made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the flawless manifestation of His reality. [ADONAI] sustains all things by His powerful word. After [Yeshua] made atonement for sins, he sat down in the place of authority beside the Majesty in heaven.
יְיָ אֱלֹהֵיכֶם אֱמֶת |
Adonai, Eloheikem, Emet. |
ADONAI, your God, Is true.
…And certain, established and enduring, fair and faithful, beloved and cherished, delightful and pleasant, awesome and powerful, correct and accepted, good and beautiful is this affirmation to us forever and ever. True - the God of the universe is our King; the Rock of Jacob is the Shield of our salvation. From generation to generation He endures and His Name endures and His throne is well established; His sovereignty and faithfulness endure forever. His words are living and enduring, faithful and delightful forever (kiss the tzitzit and release them) and to all eternity;
Chazzan - for our ancestors and for us, for our children and for our generations, and for all the generations of Your servant Israel's offspring.
Upon the earlier and upon later generations, this affirmation is good and enduring forever. True and faithful, it is an unbreachable decree. It is true that You are ADONAI, our God and the God of our ancestors,
Chazzan - our King and the King of our ancestors, our Redeemer, the Redeemer of our ancestors; our Molder, the Rock of our salvation; our Liberator and our Rescuer this has ever been Your Name. There is no God but You.
Stand, in anticipation of the Amidah.

Amidah
Take three steps backward, then three steps forward. Remain standing with the feet together while reciting Shemoneh Esrei. It should be recited with quiet devotion and without any interruption, verbal or otherwise. Although it should not be audible to others, one must pray loudly enough to hear oneself.

You are eternally mighty, my Lord, the Resuscitator of the dead are You; abundantly able to save, (Between Sukkot and Pesach: Who makes the wind blow and makes the rain descend); Who sustains the living with kindness, revives the dead with abundant mercy, supports the fallen, heals the sick, releases the confined, and maintains His faith to those asleep in the dust. Who is like You, O Master of mighty deeds, and who is comparable to You, O King Who causes death and restores life and makes salvation sprout! And You are faithful to revive the dead. Blessed are You, ADONAI, Who revives the dead.

Elohai N'tzor (Meditation after the Amidah)
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: |

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.
Sit. You may insert silent personal prayers and meditations.

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: |

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. |
