A prayer for the State of Israel

A prayer for the State of Israel

Avinu, avinu sheh’ba’shamayim
Tzur yisrael veh’go’alo
Barekh,barekh et medinat Yisrael
Reishit tzmihat geulateynu
Hagen aleyha be’evrat hasdekha
U’fros aleyha sukkat shlomekha

U’shlakh orkha v’amitkha
Le’rasheya, sareyha, v’yoatzeha
V’taknem be’etza tova milfanekha
Hazek et yidei meginei eretz kodsheynu

V’hankhilem Eloheinu yeshua
V’ateret nitzahon te’atrem
V’natata shalom b’aretz
V’simhat olam l’yoshveha

Avinu, avinu sheh’ba’shamayim
V’nomar Amen

Our Father in Heaven, Rock and Redeemer of the people Israel; Bless the State of Israel, with its promise of redemption. Shield it with Your love; spread over it the shelter of Your peace. Guide its leaders and advisors with Your light and Your truth. Help them with Your good counsel. Strengthen the hands of those who defend our Holy Land. Deliver them; crown their efforts with triumph. Bless the land with peace, and its inhabitants with lasting joy. And let us say: Amen.
