We hung our lyres on the willows in its midst. For there those who carried us away captive required of us a song; and those who tormented us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. How shall we sing the Lord s song in a foreign land? If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy. Remember, O Lord, against the Edomites, the day of Jerusalem; who said, Raze it, raze it, to its foundation. O daughter of Babylon, you are to be destroyed! Happy shall he be, who repays you for what you have done to us! Happy shall he be, who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rock! בשבת וי" טו ש יר ה מּ ע לוֹת.בּ שׁוּב י הו ה א ת ש יב ת צ יּוֹן ה י ינוּ כּ ח ל מ ים :אָז י מּ ל א ש חוֹק פּ ינוּ וּל שׁוֹנ נוּ ר נ ה.אָז יאמ רוּ ב גּוֹי ם ה ג דּ יל י הו ה ל ע שּׁוֹת ע ם א ל ה :ה ג דּ יל י הו ה ל ע שּׁוֹת ע מּ נוּ.ה י ינוּ ש מ ח ים :שׁוּב ה י הו ה א ת ש ב ית נוּ כּ א פ יק ים בּ נ ג ב :ה זּר ע ים ב ד מ ע ה ב ר נ ה י ק צרוּ :ה לוֹך י ל ך וּב כה נשּׁ א מ שׁ ך ה זּ ר ע.בּא י בא ב ר נ ה.נשּׁ א א ל מּת יו: On the Sabbath and holidays A song of ascent: When God restored the exiles, we were like dreamers. Then our mouth filled with laughter and our tongues with joyous song. Then it was said among the nations: God has done great thing for them. God has done great things for us. And so we rejoiced. Return our exiles, God, as You return streams to the Negev. Those who sow in tears will reap in joyous song. Though one weeps will planting the measure of seed, one will return home with joyful song, bearing sheaves of grain. בּ רוּך אַתּ ה י הו ה א ל הינוּ מ ל ך ה עוֹל ם.ה זּ ן א ת ה עוֹל ם כּ לּוֹ.בּ טוּבוֹ בּ ח ן בּ ח ס ד וּב ר ח מ ים. הוּא נוֹת ן ל ח ם ל כ ל בּ שּׁ ר.כּ י ל עוֹל ם ח ס דּוֹ :וּב טוּבוֹ ה גּ דוֹל תּ מ יד ל א ח ס ר ל נוּ ו אַל י ח ס ר ל נוּ מ זוֹן ל עוֹ לם ו ע ד.בּ ע בוּר ש מוֹ ה גּ דוֹל.כּ י הוּא אל ז ן וּמ פ ר נ ס ל כּל וּמ ט יב ל כּל וּמ כ ין מ זוֹן ל כ ל בּ ר יּוֹת יו א שׁ ר ב ר א :בּ רוּך אַתּ ה י הו ה.ה זּ ן א ת ה כּל: We praise You, God, Ruler of the universe, Who sustains the entire world with goodness, kindness and mercy.

We praise You, God, Who provides food for all. נוֹד ה לּ ך י הו ה א ל הינוּ.ע ל שׁ ה נ ח ל תּ ל א בוֹת ינוּ א ר ץ ח מ ד ה טוֹב ה וּר ח ב ה.ו ע ל שׁ הוֹצ את נוּ י הו ה א ל הינוּ מ א ר ץ מ צ ר י ם.וּפ ד ית נוּ מ ב ית ע ב ד ים.ו ע ל בּ ר ית ך שׁ ח ת מ תּ בּ ב שּׁ ר נוּ.ו ע ל תּוֹר ת ך שׁ לּ נ מּד תּ נוּ.ו ע ל ח קּ י ך שׁ הוֹד ע תּ נוּ.ו ע ל ח י ים ח ן ו ח ס ד שׁ חוֹנ נ תּ נוּ.ו ע ל א כ יל ת מ זוֹן שׁ אַתּ ה ז ן וּמ פ ר נ ס אוֹת נוּ תּ מ יד.בּ כ ל יוֹם וּב כ ל ע ת וּב כ ל שׁ ע ה: We thank You for having given a lovely, good and spacious land to our fathers; for having liberated us from the land of Egypt and freed us from the house of bondage; for Your covenant which You have sealed in our flesh, for the Torah which You have taught us; for the laws which You have made known to us; for the life, grace and loving kindness which You have bestowed upon us, and for the sustenance with which You nourish and maintain us continually, in every day, every season, and every hour. בחנוכה ובפורים אומרים זה ו ע ל ה נּ סּ ים ו ע ל ה פּ ר ק ן ו ע ל ה ג בוּרוֹת ו ע ל ה תּ שׁוּעוֹת ו ע ל ה מּ ל ח מוֹת.שׁ ע ש ית ל א בוֹת ינוּ בּ י מ ים ה ה ם בּ ז מ ן ה זּ ה: חנוכה ב ימ י מ תּ ת י הוּ בּ ן יוֹח נ ן כּה ן גּ דוֹל ח ש מוֹנ א י וּב נ יו.כּ שׁ ע מ ד ה מ ל כוּת י ו ן ה ר שׁ ע ה ע ל ע מּ ך י ש ר א ל. ל ה ש כ יח ם תּוֹר ת ך וּל ה ע ב יר ם מ ח קּ י ר צוֹנ ך.ו אַתּ ה ב ר ח מ י ך ה ר בּ ים.ע מ ד תּ ל ה ם בּ ע ת צ ר ת ם.ר ב תּ א ת ר יב ם.דּ נ תּ א ת דּ ינ ם.נ ק מ תּ א ת נ ק מ ת ם.מ ס ר תּ ג בּוֹר ים בּ י ד ח ל ש ים.ו ר בּ ים בּ י ד מ ע טּ ים.וּט מ א ים בּ י ד ט הוֹר ים.וּר שׁ ע ים בּ י ד צ ד יק ים.ו ז ד ים בּ י ד עוֹס ק י תוֹר ת ך.וּל ך ע ש י ת שׁ ם גּ דוֹל ו ק דוֹשׁ בּ עוֹל מ ך.וּל ע מּ ך י ש ר א ל ע ש י ת תּ שׁוּע ה ג דוֹל ה וּפ ר ק ן כ ה יּוֹם ה זּ ה.ו אַח ר כּ ך בּ אוּ ב נ י ך ל ד ב יר בּ ית ך.וּפ נּוּ א ת ה יכ ל ך. ו ט ה רוּ א ת מ ק דּ שׁ ך.ו ה ד ל יקוּ נ רוֹת ב ח צ רוֹת ק ד שׁ ך.ו ק ב עוּ ש מוֹנ ת י מ י ח נ כּ ה א לּוּ.ל הוֹדוֹת וּל ה ל ל ל ש מ ך ה גּ דוֹל: פורים ב ימ י מ ר ד כ י ו א ס תּ ר בּ שׁוּשׁ ן ה ב יר ה.כּ שׁ ע מ ד ע ל יה ם ה מ ן ה ר שׁ ע.ב קּ שׁ ל ה ש מ יד ל ה רוֹג וּל אַבּ ד א ת כּ ל ה יּ הוּד ים.מ נ ע ר ו ע ד ז ק ן.ט ף ו נ ש ים.בּ יוֹם א ח ד.בּ שׁ ל שׁ ה ע שּׁ ר ל ח ד שׁ שׁ נ ים ע שּׁ ר הוּא ח ד שׁ א ד ר וּש ל ל ם ל בוֹז.ו אַתּ ה ב ר ח מ י ך ה ר בּ ים ה פ ר תּ א ת ע צ תוֹ.ו ק ל ק ל תּ א ת מ ח שׁ ב תּוֹ.ו ה שׁ בוֹת לּוֹ ג מוּלוֹ ב ראשׁוֹ.ו ת לוּ אוֹתוֹ ו א ת בּ נ יו ע ל ה ע ץ: On Hanukkah and Purim We thank You for the miracles, the deliverance, the mighty acts, and the triumphant victories which You provided for our fathers in ancient days at this time of year. On Hanukkah: In the days of Matityahu ben Yohanan, the Hasmonean high priest and his sons, when the wicked Hellenist forces arose to force Israel to forget the Torah and transgress the laws of Your will, You, God, in Your great mercy, stood by Your people in time of trouble and defended them, brought judgment, dealt retribution, and delivered the mighty into the hands of the weak, the many into the hands of the few, the impure into

3 the hands of the pure, the wicked into the hands of the righteous, and the arrogant into the hands of the followers of Your Torah. You made Your name great and holy in Your world and for Your people Israel You granted great deliverance to this very day. And afterward, Your children came to Your Temple, cleaned and purified Your sanctuary, and kindled lights in Your holy courts, setting aside these eight days of dedication for thanks and praise to Your great name. On Purim: In the days of Mordehai and Esther, in Shushan, the Persian capital, the wicked Haman arose to slay, plunder and annihilate the Jews, young and old, on the thirteenth of Adar, the twelfth month of the year, but You, in Your great mercy, frustrated his plan and foiled his plot, causing him to experience the evil he had planned for others; Haman and his sons were hung on their own gallows. ו ע ל ה כּל י הו ה א ל הינוּ א נ ח נוּ מוֹד ים ל ך וּמ ב ר כ ים אוֹת ך.י ת ב ר ך ש מ ך בּ פ י כּ ל ח י תּ מ יד ל עוֹל ם ו ע ד :כ כּ תוּב.ו אָכ ל תּ ו שּׁ ב ע תּ וּב ר כ תּ א ת י הו ה א ל הי ך ע ל ה אָר ץ ה טּב ה א שׁ ר נ ת ן ל ך :ב רוּך אַ תּה י הו ה.ע ל ה אָר ץ ו ע ל ה מּ זוֹן: For all of this, God, we thank You and praise You. May Your name be praised by every living being forever, as it is written in the Torah: When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise God for good land which God has given you. We praise You, God, for the land and its nourishment. ר ח ם נ א י הו ה א ל הינוּ ע ל י ש ר א ל ע מּ ך.ו ע ל י רוּשׁ ל י ם ע יר ך.ו ע ל צ יּוֹן מ ש כ ן כּ בוֹד ך.ו ע ל מ ל כוּת ב ית דּ ו ד מ ש יח ך.ו ע ל ה בּ י ת ה גּ דוֹל ו ה קּ דוֹשׁ שׁ נ ק ר א ש מ ך ע ל יו :א ל ה ינוּ.אָב ינוּ.ר ע נוּ זוּנ נוּ פּ ר נ ס נוּ ו כ ל כּ ל נוּ ו ה ר ו יח נוּ.ו ה ר ו ח ל נוּ י הו ה א ל הינוּ מ ה ר ה מ כּ ל צ רוֹת ינוּ.ו נ א אַל תּ צ ר יכ נוּ י הו ה א ל הינוּ ל א ל יד י מ תּ נ ת בּ שּׁ ר ו ד ם ו ל א ל יד י ה ל ו אָת ם.כּ י א ם ל י ד ך ה מּ ל אָה.ה פּ תוּח ה.ה קּ דוֹשׁ ה ו ה ר ח ב ה.שׁ לּא נ בוֹשׁ ו ל א נ כּ ל ם ל עוֹל ם ו ע ד: Have mercy, God, on Israel Your people, and on Jerusalem, Your city, and on Zion the abode of your glory, and on the royal house of David your anointed, and the great and holy House that is called by Your Name. Our God, our Father, ten and nourish us, sustain and maintain us, and grant us relief, our God, from all our troubles. God, do not allow us to become dependent on gifts or loans from flesh and blood, but rather on Your full, open and generous hand, so that we will never be humiliated or put to shame.
