May God’s great Name be exalted and sanctified. Amen.

In the world that God created as God willed.

May God reign in God’s kingship in your lifetimes and in your days

And in the lifetime of the entire family of Israel swiftly and soon. Amen.

May God’s great Name be blessed forever and ever.

Blessed, praised, glorified, exalted, extolled, mighty, upraised, and

lauded be the Name of the Holy One, Blessed is God

Beyond any blessing and song,

Praise and consolation that are uttered in the world. Now say: Amen.

May there be abundant peace from Heaven

and life upon us and upon all Israel. Amen.

May the One who makes peace in the heavens above

cause peace to descend upon us, upon all Israel

and upon the entire world and we say: Amen.
