After a Bar Mitzva boy has finished the Torah blessing, his father says aloud:

Hebrew

בָּרוּךְ שֶׁפְּטָרַנִי מֵעָנְשׁוֹ שֶׁלָּזֶה׃

Sephardi

Baruch shepetarani me'onsho shellazeh:

English

Blessed is He who has released me from the responsibility for this child.

In some congregations, during the week before a yahrzeit, “God, full of mercy” for a relative is said (page 850).

מי שברך לעולה לתורה

FOR AN OLEH

Hebrew

מִי שֶׁבֵּרַךְ אֲבוֹתֵינוּ אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיַעֲקֹב, הוּא יְבָרֵךְ אֶת (פְּלוֹנִי בֶּן פְּלוֹנִי),
בַּעֲבוּר שֶׁעָלָה לִכְבוֹד הַמָּקוֹם וְלִכְבוֹד הַתּוֹרָה וְלִכְבוֹד הַשַּׁבָּת
(בְּיוֹם טוֹב: וְלִכְבוֹד הָרֶגֶל). בִּשְׂכַר זֶה הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא יִשְׁמְרֵהוּ וְיַצִּילֵהוּ מִכָּל
צָרָה וְצוּקָה וּמִכָּל נֶגַע וּמַחֲלָה, וְיִשְׁלַח בְּרָכָה וְהַצְלָחָה בְּכָל מַעֲשֵׂה יָדָיו
(בְּיוֹם טוֹב: וְיִזְכֶּה לַעֲלוֹת לָרֶגֶל) עִם כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶחָיו, וְנֹאמַר אָמֵן.

May He who blessed our fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, bless (name, son of father’s name) who has been called up in honor of the All-Present, in honor of the Torah, and in honor of Shabbat (On Yom Tov: and in honor of the festival). As a reward for this, may the Holy One, blessed be He, protect and deliver him from all trouble and distress, all infection and illness, and send blessing and success to all the work of his hands (On Yom Tov: and may he merit to go up to Jerusalem for the festivals), together with all Israel, his brethren, and let us say: Amen.

מי שברך לחולה

FOR A SICK MAN

Hebrew

מִי שֶׁבֵּרַךְ אֲבוֹתֵינוּ אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיַעֲקֹב, מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹן דָּוִד וּשְׁלֹמֹה הוּא

וּלְרַפְּאוֹתוֹ וּלְהַחֲזִיקוֹ וּלְהַחֲיוֹתוֹ וְיִשְׁלַח לוֹ מְהֵרָה רְפוּאָה שְׁלֵמָה מִן הַשָּׁמַיִם
לְרַמַ״ח אֵבָרָיו וּשְׁסָ״ה גִּידָיו בְּתוֹךְ שְׁאָר חוֹלֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, רְפוּאַת הַנֶּפֶשׁ
וּרְפוּאַת הַגּוּף. שַׁבָּת הִיא מִלִּזְעוֹק / בְּיוֹם טוֹב: יוֹם טוֹב הוּא מִלִּזְעוֹק / וּרְפוּאָה
קְרוֹבָה לָבוֹא, הַשְׁתָּא בַּעֲגָלָא וּבִזְמַן קָרִיב, וְנֹאמַר אָמֵן.

May He who blessed our fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Moses and Aaron, David and Solomon, bless and heal one who is ill, (sick person’s name, son of mother’s name), on whose behalf (name of the one making the offering) is making a contribution to charity. As a reward for this, may the Holy One, blessed be He, be filled with compassion for him, to restore his health, cure him, strengthen and revive him, sending him a swift and full recovery from heaven to all his 248 organs and 365 sinews, amongst the other sick ones in Israel, a healing of the spirit and a healing of the body – though on Shabbat (On Yom Tov: on festivals) it is forbidden to cry out, may healing be quick to come – now, swiftly and soon, and let us say: Amen.
