Hebrew

יְהִי יהוה אֱלֹהֵינוּ עִמָּנוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִם־אֲבֹתֵינוּ, אַל־יַעַזְבֵנוּ וְאַל־יִטְּשֵׁנוּ:
לְהַטּוֹת לְבָבֵנוּ אֵלָיו, לָלֶכֶת בְּכָל־דְּרָכָיו וְלִשְׁמֹר מִצְוֹתָיו וְחֻקָּיו וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו
אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה אֶת־אֲבֹתֵינוּ: וִיהְיוּ דְבָרַי אֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר הִתְחַנַּנְתִּי לִפְנֵי יהוה,
קְרֹבִים אֶל־יהוה אֱלֹהֵינוּ יוֹמָם וָלָיְלָה, לַעֲשׂוֹת מִשְׁפַּט עַבְדּוֹ וּמִשְׁפַּט
עַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל דְּבַר־יוֹם בְּיוֹמוֹ: לְמַעַן דַּעַת כָּל־עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ כִּי יהוה הוּא
הָאֱלֹהִים, אֵין עוֹד:

May the LORD our God be with us, as He was with our ancestors. May He never abandon us or forsake us, ever; as He turns our hearts toward Him, to follow all His paths and to keep His commands and His statutes and laws, as He charged our ancestors. And may these words with which I have pleaded before the LORD be close to the LORD our God, day and night, that He do justice for Your servant, and for Your people Israel, day by day. That all the peoples of the earth shall know that the LORD is God; there is no other.

Ps. 5Ps. 26Ps. 25Ps. 121Deut. 26

Hebrew

יהוה נְחֵנִי בְצִדְקָתֶךָ לְמַעַן שׁוֹרְרָי, הַיְשַׁר לְפָנַי דַּרְכֶּךָ: וַאֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי אֵלֵךְ, פְּדֵנִי
וְחָנֵּנִי: פְּנֵה־אֵלַי וְחָנֵּנִי כִּי־יָחִיד וְעָנִי אָנִי: רַגְלִי עָמְדָה בְמִישׁוֹר, בַּמַּקְהֵלִים
אֲבָרֵךְ יהוה: יהוה שֹׁמְרִי, יהוה צִלִּי עַל־יַד יְמִינִי. עֶזְרִי מֵעִם יהוה, עֹשֵׂה
שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ: יהוה יִשְׁמָר־צֵאתִי וּבוֹאִי לְחַיִּים וּלְשָׁלוֹם, מֵעַתָּה וְעַד עוֹלָם.
הַשְׁקִיפָה מִמְּעוֹן קָדְשְׁךָ מִן־הַשָּׁמַיִם, וּבָרֵךְ אֶת־עַמְּךָ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאֵת
הָאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר נָתַתָּה לָּנוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּעְתָּ לַאֲבֹתֵינוּ, אֶרֶץ זָבַת חָלָב

English

Lead me, LORD, in Your righteousness, because of my foes; make Your way straight before me. As for me, I lead a blameless life; redeem me and show me favor. Turn to me and show me favor, for I am lonely and afflicted. My foot stands on level ground: in the assemblies I will bless the LORD. The LORD is my Guardian; the LORD is my Shade at my right hand. My help comes from the LORD, Maker of heaven and earth. The LORD will guard my coming and going, for life and for peace, now and for evermore. Gaze down from Your holy dwelling place, from the heavens, and bless Your people Israel, and the land that You have given us, as You promised our ancestors: a land flowing with milk and honey.

Gen. 49Ps. 121Ex. 15

Hebrew

Glorious God, I bring before You song and praise; I shall worship You day and night. Blessed be the One and Only One - who was, who is and who will always be. LORD God, God of Israel, King, King of kings, Holy One, blessed be He. He is the living God, the living and ever, forever enduring King. Blessed be the name of His glorious kingdom for ever and ever. I long for Your salvation, LORD. All the nations will walk, each in the name of its god; and I will walk in the name of the LORD, the living God and eternal King. My help comes from the LORD, Maker of heaven and earth. The LORD will reign for ever and all time.

Ps. 67

Hebrew

לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹת, מִזְמוֹר שִׁיר: אֱלֹהִים יְחָנֵּנוּ וִיבָרְכֵנוּ, יָאֵר פָּנָיו אִתָּנוּ סֶלָה:

For the Chief Musician; with stringed instruments. A psalm. A song. May God be gracious to us and bless us; may He cause His face to shine upon us, Selah, that Your way may be known on earth, Your salvation, among all nations. May the peoples praise You, God; may all the peoples praise You! The nations will rejoice and break into song; for You judge the peoples with equity and guide the nations of the earth, Selah. May the peoples praise You, God; may all the peoples praise You! The earth has yielded its produce; may God, our God, bless us. May God bless us, and may all the ends of the earth fear Him!

Some say Adon Olam (page 22) at this point.
