And because of all these things You do for us, God, our King, may Your name always be blessed, exalted, and raised forever and ever.
Bend knees at בָּרוּךְ; bow at אַתָּה; straighten up at יְיָ.

And all living things will thank You forever, and they will praise Your great name forever, because You are good. You are the God Who is our everlasting salvation and help; You are the good God. Blessed are You, Lord—You have a good name and reputation, and it is appropriate to give You thanks.
On festivals, besides for Simchat Torah, during the chazzan’s repetition of the Amidah, the Kohanim perform the Priestly Blessing at this point (page 592).
On Chol Hamoed (including Shabbat Chol Hamoed) and on Simchat Torah, (and on a festival, if no Kohanim are present,) the chazzan says the following during the repetition of the Amidah. The congregation responds אָמֵן as indicated:
Priestly Blessing
Hebrew
אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ, בָּרְכֵנוּ בַבְּרָכָה

כֹּהֲנִים עַם קְדוֹשֶׁךָ, כָּאָמוּר: יְבָרֶכְךָ יְיָ
וְיִשְׁמְרֶךָ: (אָמֵן) יָאֵר יְיָ פָּנָיו אֵלֶיךָ<sup>1</sup>, וִיחֻנֶּךָ:
(אָמֵן) יִשָּׂא יְיָ פָּנָיו אֵלֶיךָ, וְיָשֵׂם לְךָ שָׁלוֹם: (אָמֵן)

English
Our God and the God of our fathers, bless us with the three-part blessing found in the Torah, which was written by Your servant, Moses, and said by Aaron and his sons, the Kohanim, who are called Your holy nation. As it says in the Torah: May the Lord bless you with livelihood and guard your possessions from thieves. (Amen) May the Lord shine His joyful face upon you<sup>1</sup> and be gracious to you. (Amen) May the Lord, holding back His anger, turn His merciful face toward you, and give you peace. (Amen)
Bless us with peace and all good things

English
God, place peace, goodness, blessing, life, graciousness, kindness, and mercy on us and on all of the Children of Israel, Your nation. God, our Father, bless all of us together as one with the light of Your shining face. For with the light of Your shining face, Lord, our God, You gave us the Torah of life, loving-kindness, righteousness, blessing, mercy, life, and peace. May it be a good thing in Your eyes to bless Your nation, the Children of Israel, with Your peace at all times and at every moment. Blessed are You, Lord, Who blesses His nation, the Children of Israel, with the blessing of peace.
During the repetition of the Amidah, the chazzan says this verse quietly:
Accept our prayers
Hebrew
יִהְיוּ לְרָצוֹן אִמְרֵי פִי וְהֶגְיוֹן לִבִּי לְפָנֶיךָ,
יְיָ צוּרִי וְגוֹאֲלִי:
Sephardi
Yihyu leratzon imrei fi ve-hegyon libi lefanecha,
Adonai tzuri vego'ali:
English
May the words of the prayers that came from my mouth, and the thoughts of my heart, be acceptable to You—Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.
The chazzan’s repetition of the Amidah ends here. The silent Amidah continues:
Save me from the sin of speaking negatively about someone
Hebrew
אֱלֹהַי, נְצוֹר לְשׁוֹנִי מֵרָע, וּשְׂפָתַי
מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָה, וְלִמְקַלְלַי
נַפְשִׁי תִדֹּם, וְנַפְשִׁי כֶּעָפָר לַכֹּל
תִּהְיֶה.
Sephardi
Elohai, netzor leshoni mera, u-sefatai

English
My God, guard my tongue from saying bad things, and prevent my lips from speaking dishonestly. Let my soul be quiet and ignore those who curse me; let my soul be as humble as dust before everyone.
Destroy my enemies and open my heart to Your Torah and commandments
Hebrew
פְּתַח לִבִּי בְּתוֹרָתֶךָ,
וּבְמִצְוֹתֶיךָ תִּרְדֹּף נַפְשִׁי, וְכָל
הַחוֹשְׁבִים עָלַי רָעָה, מְהֵרָה הָפֵר

לְמַעַן יֵחָלְצוּן יְדִידֶיךָ, הוֹשִׁיעָה
יְמִינְךָ וַעֲנֵנִי. עֲשֵׂה לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ,

English
Open my heart to Your Torah so that I will understand it properly, and let my soul always chase after Your commandments. Quickly cancel the ideas of any people thinking of doing evil to me, and ruin their plans. Let them be like chaff—the small, inedible shells of grain—that flies away in the wind, and let the angel of the Lord push them away. Help me with Your right hand, and answer my prayers in order to save the Jewish Nation, Your precious nation, from trouble. Do it in order to make Your name great, so that everyone will recognize that You are a great God; do it in order to strengthen Your right hand, Whose glory has become weakened during exile; do it in order to reveal the greatness of Your Torah; do it in order to increase Your holiness in this world.
