“Adon Olom”

Prayer 2

Lord of the universe

Who reigned before anything was created

At the time when He made all by His will,

Then was His Name proclaimed King.

And after all things will be uplifted,

The Awesome One will reign alone.

He was, He is,

And He shall be in glory.

He is One, and there is no other

To compare to Him, to call His equal.

Without beginning, without end -

Power and dominion belong to Him.

He is my G-d and my ever-living Redeemer,

The strength of my lot in time of distress.

He is my banner and my refuge,

My portion on the day I call.

Into His hand I entrust my spirit

When I sleep and when I wake.

And with my soul, my body too,

The L-rd is with me, I shall not fear.

Psalm 145:

Prayer 3

A Psalm of praise by David: I will exalt You, my

G-d the King, and bless Your Name forever. Every

Day I will bless You, and extol Your Name forever.

The L-rd is great and exceedingly exalted: there is

No limit to His greatness. One generation to another

Will praise Your works and tell of Your mighty acts.

I will speak of the splendor of Your glorious

Majesty and of Your wondrous deeds. They will

Proclaim the might of Your awesome acts, and I

Will recount Your greatness. They will express the

Remembrance of Your abounding goodness, and

Sing of Your righteousness. The L-rd is gracious

And compassionate, slow to anger and of great

Kindness. The L-rd is good to all, and His mercies

Extend over all His works. L-rd all Your works

Will give thanks to You, and Your pious ones will

Bless You. They will declare the glory of Your

Kingdom, and tell of Your strength, to make known

To mankind His mighty acts, and the glorious

Majesty of His kingdom. Your kingship is a

Kingship over all worlds, and Your dominion is

Throughout all generations. The L-rd supports all

Who fall, and straightens all who are bent. The eyes

Of all look expectantly to You, and You give them

Their food at the proper time. You open Your hand

And satisfy the desire of every living thing. The

L-rd is righteous in all His ways, and benevolent in

All His deeds. The L-rd is close to all who call upon

Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. He fulfills

The desire of those who fear Him, hears their cry

And delivers them. The L-rd watches over all who

Love Him, and will destroy all the wicked. My

Mouth will utter the praise of the L-rd, and let all

Flesh bless His holy Name forever.

Prayer 4

Our Father, merciful Father, Who is compassionate,

Have mercy on us, and grant our heart

Understanding to comprehend and to discern, to

Perceive, to learn and to teach, to observe, to

Practice, and to fulfill Your will with love.

Enlighten our eyes in Your wisdom, cause our

Hearts to cleave to Your Seven Commandments, and

Unite our hearts to love and fear Your Name, and

May we never be put to shame, disgrace or

Stumbling. Because we trust in Your holy, great and

Awesome Name, may we rejoice and exult in Your

Salvation. L-rd our G-d, may Your mercy and Your

Abounding kindness never forsake us.

Prayer 5

Almighty G-d, we accept upon ourselves that

Which is written in Your Torah: “You shall know

This day and take to your heart that the L-rd [alone]

Is G-d, in the heavens above and on the earth below

- There is none other!”

We affirm the precepts of : “You shall love the

L-rd, your G-d, with all your heart, and all your

Soul, and all your might,” and “Fear the L-rd, your

G-d, and serve Him, and in His Name [alone] shall

You vow:” and, as it says, “Fear G-d and keep His

Commandments, for that is a person's entire duty.”

“Amidah” (Standing) Prayer

Prayer 6

Blessed are You, G-d, the Supreme Being Who

bestows abundant kindness.

Please endow us graciously with wisdom, under

standing, and knowledge.

Please accept our repentance, and forgive us for

our errors and sins.

Grant complete healing for all our wounds and

ailments.

Bestow upon us all the needs for our sustenance

from Your bounty.

Hasten the day of which it is said: “G-d will be

King over the entire earth; in that day G-d will be

One and His Name One;” “For then I will turn the

peoples to pure language, so that all will call upon

the Name of G-d to serve Him with one purpose;”

and “They will not harm or destroy on all My holy

mountain, for the earth will be filled with

knowledge of G-d as water covering the sea bed.”

Hear our voice, G-d our merciful Father, have

compassion upon us and accept our prayers in

mercy and favor. (Other requests’ may be inserted

here.) Blessed are You, G-d, Who hears prayer.

“Prayer of the Repentant”

Prayer 7

O G-d, I have erred, sinned and willfully

transgressed before You, and I have done that

which is evil in Your eyes, especially with the sin(s)

of ... (quietly state the specific sins or errors).

I am sincerely ashamed of my sins, and I repent

and firmly undertake not to do so again.,

Please G-d, in Your infinite grace and

compassion, forgive my sins and transgressions and

grant me atonement, as it is written: “Let the

wicked abandon his way and the man of iniquity his

thoughts; and let him return unto G-d, and He will

show him compassion, and to our G-d, for He will

pardon abundantly.” And it is written: “Do I

desire at all that the wicked should die, says the

L-rd, G-d; it is rather that he return from his ways

And live!”

Psalm 20

Prayer 8

For the choirmaster, a Psalm by David. May the

L-rd answer you on the day of distress; may the

Name of the G-d of Jacob fortify you. May He

send your help from the Sanctuary, and support you

from Zion. May He remember all your offerings,

and always accept favorably your sacrifices. May

He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill your

every plan. We will rejoice in your deliverance, and

raise our banners in the Name of our G-d; may the

L-rd fulfill all your wishes. Now I know that the

L-rd has delivered His anointed one, answering

him from His holy Heavens with the mighty saving

power of His right hand. Some [rely] upon chariots

and some upon horses, but we invoke the Name of

the L-rd our G-d. They bend and fall, but we rise

and are invigorated. L-rd, deliver us; may the King

answer us on the day we call.
