HOSHANOT FOR HOSHANA RABBAH

Hebrew
תִּתְּנֵנוּ לְשֵׁם וְלִתְהִלָּה, הוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ,
אֶל הַחֶבֶל וְאֶל הַנַּחֲלָה,
תְּרוֹמְמֵנוּ לְמַעְלָה לְמַעְלָה,
תְּקוֹבְצֵנוּ לְבֵית הַתְּפִלָּה, תַּצִּיבֵנוּ
כְּעֵץ עַל פַּלְגֵי מַיִם שְׁתוּלָה, תִּפְדֵּנוּ
מִכָּל נֶגַע וּמַחֲלָה, תַּעְטְרֵנוּ בְּאַהֲבָה
כְּלוּלָה, תְּשַׂמְּחֵנוּ בְּבֵית הַתְּפִלָּה,
תְּנַהֲלֵנוּ עַל מֵי מְנוּחוֹת סֶלָה,
תְּמַלְּאֵנוּ חָכְמָה וְשֵׂכֶל, תַּלְבִּישֵׁנוּ
עֹז וּגְדֻלָּה, תַּכְתִּירֵנוּ בְּכֶתֶר
הַמַּעֲלָה, תְּיַשְּׁרֵנוּ בְּאֹרַח סְלוּלָה,
תַּסִּיעֵנוּ בְּיֹשֶׁר מְסִלָּה, תְּחָנֵּנוּ
בְּרַחֲמִים וּבְחֶמְלָה, תַּזְכִּירֵנוּ בְּמִי
זֹאת עוֹלָה, תּוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ לְקֵץ הַגְּאֻלָּה,
תְּהַדְּרֵנוּ בְּזִיו הַמּוֹלָה, תַּדְבִּיקֵנוּ
כְּאֵזוֹר חֲגוּרָה, תְּגַדְּלֵנוּ בְּיָד
הַגְּדוֹלָה, תְּבִיאֵנוּ לְבֵיתְךָ בְּרִנָּה
וְצָהֳלָה, תְּאַמְּצֵנוּ בְּרֶוַח וְהַצָּלָה,
תְּאַדְּרֵנוּ בְּאֶבֶן תְּלוּלָה, תְּלַבְּבֵנוּ
בְּבִנְיַן עִירָךְ כְּבַתְּחִלָּה, תְּעוֹרְרֵנוּ
לְצִיּוֹן בְּשַׁכְלוּלָה, תְּזַכֵּנוּ בְּבוֹנֶה
הָעִיר עַל תִּלָּה, תַּרְבִּיצֵנוּ בְּשָׂשׂוֹן
וְגִילָה, תְּחַזְּקֵנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶלָה:

God, make us famous and praised. Bring us to our portion and inheritance. Raise us higher and higher. Gather us together and bring us to the Holy Temple, the House of Prayer. Stand us up straight, like a tree that is planted next to flowing water. Free us from every plague and disease. Surround us with perfect love. Let us rejoice in the Holy Temple, the House of Prayer. Lead us along calm waters forever. Fill us with wisdom and intelligence. Dress us with majesty and greatness. Crown us with the special crown—Torah. Lead us on smooth roads. Establish us on the straight path, the path of righteousness. Graciously give us mercy and pity. Remember what You have said about us. “Who is as worthy as this nation, the Jewish Nation, going up from the wilderness?” Help us reach the final Redemption. Make us beautiful with the light of angels. Attach us strongly to You as a belt is attached to its wearer. Make us great with Your great hand. Bring us to Your House, the Holy Temple, with song and celebration. Strengthen us with relief and salvation. Glorify us with the Holy Temple built on the foundation stone on top of a mountain. Gladden our hearts with the rebuilding of Your city, Jerusalem, the way it used to be. Awaken our hearts to Zion (Jerusalem) when it is re-established. Let us merit seeing the city of Jerusalem rebuilt on its place. Let us rest in joy and gladness. Strengthen us forever, God of Jacob.
The chazzan says the following phrase aloud, followed by the congregation:

We beg You<sup>1</sup> to listen to the pleading of those who long for Your help, who bring You joy with the willows that grow next to rivers, and please help us. We beg You to redeem the Jewish Nation, the people You have planted within the Land of Israel, as you sweep away Dumah, the nation of Edom, and please help us. We beg You to look at the covenant that is marked on our bodies, as You sink the evil people who make the earth a darker place, and please help us. We beg You to remember for our sake our father Abraham who recognized Your existence. Give kindness to his children, the Jewish Nation, because he made You known, and please help us. We beg You that when You perform miracles for the Children of Israel, who are pure-hearted, it should be known that it is Your miracle, and not just a coincidence, and please help us. We beg You, all-powerful God, give us Your salvation as You promised our fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and please help us. We beg You to fulfill the requests of the people who pray to You, just as You fulfilled Isaac’s requests to You when he was tied up on Mount Moriah during the Binding of Isaac, and please help us. We beg You to strengthen the Children of Israel, who are the trees of Your orchard, by scattering their enemies, and please help us. We beg You to
