Bow forward and take three steps back. Bow to the left while saying עֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו; bow forward while saying הוּא; bow to the right while saying יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵינוּ; and bow forward again while saying וְעַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאִמְרוּ אָמֵן.
From Rosh Hashanah through Yom Kippur, say הַשָּׁלוֹם instead of שָׁלוֹם.
Grant peace to the Jewish Nation
Hebrew
עֹשֶׂה (הַשָּׁלוֹם) שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו, הוּא
יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵינוּ וְעַל כָּל
יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאִמְרוּ אָמֵן:

May God, <b>Who makes</b> (the) <b>peace in His heavens, make peace for us and for all the Children of Israel, and everyone say Amen.</b>
Rebuild the Holy Temple speedily
Hebrew
יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶיךָ, יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ,
שֶׁיִּבָּנֶה בֵּית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ בִּמְהֵרָה בְּיָמֵינוּ, וְתֵן
חֶלְקֵנוּ בְּתוֹרָתֶךָ:
Sephardi
Yehi ratzon milfanekha, Adonai Eloheinu veilohei avoteinu,

English
<b>May it be Your will, Lord, our God and the God of our fathers, that the Holy Temple should be built speedily in our days,</b> and that <b>You give us our portion in Your Torah,</b> so we will be able to learn it properly.
The silent Amidah ends here.
In the presence of a minyan, the chazzan repeats the Amidah, starting on page 193. The congregation should listen carefully to the chazzan and respond אָמֵן after each blessing. It is also customary to respond בָּרוּךְ הוּא וּבָרוּךְ שְׁמוֹ each time the chazzan says בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ.
On days when Tachanun is not said, the chazzan continues with Complete Kaddish, page 214. If there is no minyan present, continue with עָלֵינוּ, page 215.
For days when Tachanun is not said, see page 108. Additionally, Tachanun is not said in the afternoon of the following days: Friday, the day before Rosh Chodesh, the 24th of Kislev, the 14th of Shevat, the 13th of Adar (and Adar II in a leap year), the 17th of Iyar, the 8th of Av, and the 14th of Av. According to Chabad custom, Tachanun is also not said on the afternoon of the 18th of Kislev and the 11th of Tammuz.

VIDUY AND TACHANUN
Stand while saying Viduy.
May God accept our prayers even though we have sinned
Hebrew

<b>Our God and the God of our fathers, may our prayers</b> reach You; may they <b>come to You. Do not turn away our requests;</b> do not ignore our prayers, because <b>we are not so shameless and stubborn to say to You, Lord, our God and the God of our fathers,</b> that <b>we are righteous people and have not sinned.</b> Rather, we admit that <b>we and our ancestors have sinned.</b>
Bow slightly while saying this paragraph. As each sin is mentioned, tap the left side of your chest with your right fist. This shows regret for having followed any desires of the heart that may have led to sin.
