GOD OF HISTORY (AVOT): Blessed are You, Oh Adonai our God and God of our fathers, the God of
Avraham, the God of Itzchak and the God of Yaakov, the Great, Mighty and Revered God, the Most High
God who bestows loving kindnesses, the Creator of all things, who remembers the good deeds of the
patriarchs and in love came as a redeemer to their children's children for Your NAME'S sake. Oh King,
helper, savior and shield. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the shield of Avraham.

2. THE GOD OF NATURE (GEVUROT): You, Oh Adonai, are Mighty forever, You revive the dead, You have
the power to save. You cause the wind to blow and the rain to fall. You sustain the living with loving-
kindness, You revive the dead with great mercy, and You support the falling, heal the sick, set free the
bound and keep faith with those who sleep in the dust. Who is like You, Oh doer of Mighty acts? Who
resembles You, a King who puts to death and restores to life, and causes salvation to flourish? And You
are certain to revive the dead. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who revives the dead.

3. SANCTIFICATION OF GOD (KEDUSHAT HASHEM): We will sanctify Your NAME in this world just as it is
sanctified in the highest heavens, as it is written by Your prophet: And they call out to one another and
say: Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. Blessed be the Presence
of the LORD in his place. And in Your Holy Words it is written, saying, The LORD reigns forever, your
God, Oh Tzion, throughout all generations. Hallelujah. Throughout all generations, we will declare Your
greatness, and to all eternity we will proclaim Your holiness. Your praise, Our God, shall never depart
from our mouth, for You are a great and holy God and King. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the holy God.
You are holy, and Your NAME is holy, and holy beings praise You daily. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the
Holy God.

4. PRAYER FOR UNDERSTANDING (BINAH): You favor men with knowledge, and teach mortals
understanding. Oh favor us with the knowledge, the understanding and the insight that comes from
You. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the gracious giver of knowledge.

5. FOR REPENTANCE (TESHUVAH): Bring us back, Our father, to Your Instruction; draw us near, Our King,
to Your service; and cause us to return to You in perfect repentance. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who
delights in repentance.

6. FOR FORGIVENESS (SELICHAH): Forgive us, Our Father, for we have sinned; pardon us, Our King, for we
have transgressed; for You pardon and forgive. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who is merciful and always
ready to forgive.

7. FOR DELIVERANCE FROM AFFLICTION (GEULAH): Look upon our affliction and plead our cause, and
redeem us speedily for Your NAME'S sake, for You are a Mighty Redeemer. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai,
the redeemer of Yisrael.

8. FOR HEALING (REFUAH): Heal us, Oh Adonai, and we will be healed; save us and we will be saved, for
You are our praise. Oh grant a perfect healing to all our ailments, for You, Almighty King, are a faithful
and merciful healer. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the healer of the sick of His people Yisrael.
9. FOR DELIVERANCE FROM WANT (BIRKAT HASHANIM): Bless this year for us, Oh Adonai our God,
together with all the varieties of its produce, for our welfare. Bestow dew and rain for a blessing upon
the face of the earth. Oh satisfy us with Your goodness, and bless our year like the best of years. Blessed
are You, Oh Adonai, who blesses the years.

10. FOR GATHERING OF EXILES (GALUYOT): Sound the great shofar (trumpet) for our freedom, raise the
ensign to gather our exiles, and gather us from the four corners of the earth. Blessed are You, Oh
Adonai, who gathers the dispersed of His people Yisrael.

11. FOR THE RIGHTEOUS REIGN OF GOD (BIRKAT HADIN): Restore our judges as in former times, and our
counselors as at the beginning; and remove from us sorrow and sighing. Reign over us, You alone, Oh
Adonai, with loving kindness and compassion, and clear us in judgment. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai,
the King who loves righteousness and justice.

12. FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND PROSELYTES (TZADIKIM): May Your compassion be stirred, Oh Adonai our
God, towards the righteous, the pious, the elders of Your people the house of Yisrael, the remnant of
their scholars, towards proselytes, and towards us also. Grant a good reward to all who truly trust in
Your NAME. Set our lot with them forever so that we may never be put to shame, for we have put our
trust in You. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, the support and stay of the righteous.

13. FOR THE REBUILDING OF YERUSHALAYIM (BONEH YERUSHALAYIM): Return in mercy to Yerushalayim
Your city, and dwell in it as You have promised. Rebuild it soon in our day as an eternal structure, and
quickly set up in it the throne of David. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who rebuilds Yerushalayim.

14. FOR THE MESSIANIC KING (BIRKAT DAVID): Speedily bring the offspring of Your servant David to us,
and let him be exalted by Your saving power, for we wait all day long for Yeshua. Blessed are You, Oh
Adonai, who brings Yeshua to flourish.

15. FOR THE ANSWERING OF PRAYER (TEFFILLAH): Hear our voice, Oh Adonai our God; spare us and have
pity on us. Accept our prayer in mercy and with favor, for You are a God who hears prayers and
supplications. Our King, do not turn us away from Your presence empty-handed, for You hear the
prayers of Your people Yisrael with compassion. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who hears prayer.

16. FOR RESTORATION OF TEMPLE SERVICE (AVODAH): Be pleased, Oh Adonai our God, with Your people
Yisrael and with their prayers. Restore the service to the inner sanctuary of Your Temple, and receive in
love and with favor both the fire-offerings of Yisrael and their prayers. May the worship of Your
people Yisrael always be acceptable to You. And let our eyes behold Your return in mercy to Tzion.
Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who restores His divine presence to Tzion.

17. THANKSGIVING FOR GOD'S UNFAILING MERCIES (HODA’AH): We give thanks to You that You are
Adonai our God and the God of our fathers forever and ever. Through every Generation, You have been
the rock of our lives, the shield of our salvation. We will give You thanks and declare Your praise for our
lives that are committed into Your hands, for our souls that are entrusted to You, for Your miracles that
are daily with us, and for Your wonders and Your benefits that are with us at all times, evening, morning
and noon. Oh beneficent One, Your mercies never fail; Oh merciful One, Your loving kindnesses never
cease. We have always put our hope in You. For all these acts may Your NAME be blessed and exalted
continually, Our King, forever and ever. Let every living thing give thanks to You and praise Your NAME
in truth, Oh God, our salvation and our help. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, whose NAME is the
Beneficent One, and to whom it is fitting to give thanks.

18. FOR SHALOM (SIM SHALOM): Grant shalom, welfare, blessing, grace, loving kindness and mercy to us
and to all Yisrael Your people. Bless us, Our Father, One and All, with the light of Your countenance; for
by the light of Your countenance You have given us, Oh Adonai our God, a Torah of life, loving kindness
and salvation, blessing, mercy, life and shalom. May it please You to bless Your people Yisrael at all
times and in every hour with your shalom. Blessed are You, Oh Adonai, who blesses His people Yisrael
with shalom.
