Fast Days and Mourning תעניות ואבילות

So By Your abundant mercies forgive us, our Father, for in our great folly we have strayed. Grant us pardon, our King, for our iniquities have multiplied. You are a God slow to anger, and You have taught us the way of repentance. Remember today the greatness of Your mercies and Your kindness for the descendants of Your beloved ones. Turn to us with mercy, for You are the Master of mercy. We come before You with supplication and prayer, as You made known to the humble one of old. And turn back from Your burning anger, as it is written in Your Torah. May we shelter and take refuge beneath Your wings, as on the day when Hashem descended in the cloud. Overlook the transgression and forgive the guilt, as on the day when He stood there with him. Hear our cry and accept our word with favor, as on the day when he proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

My soul mourns and my countenance darkened; my house of glory was burned by the hand of the lion. Even the survivors whom my kin had left behind were extinguished this day, the third of Tishrei. The raging waters swept over us in their flood; the adversaries trampled my sanctuary and plundered its portion. The elders of the remnant who had escaped on the day of vengeance were slain this day together with Gedaliah son of Ahikam. The poor of the people of the land were torn apart; what the locust left, the grasshopper devoured with fury. Vinedressers and farmers whom the governor of the land had appointed were gathered up this day, and there was none to repair the breach and stand in the gap. What shall I recount, my sighs are so many; my soul is weary and my assemblies are in mourning. My survivors who escaped the sword and the fury still do not endure; they are struck down within the walls. How long will You hide Your face from us? Hear our outcry and loosen our chains. Holy One, look upon our affliction, for we have no one to crown us king. Behold our lowliness, and we will offer praise before You. We have been ravaged from generation to generation, from age to age; the root of the serpent has bitten us. Mighty One, awaken to Your judgments and arise, atone for our sins and say: let us hasten the end. May Your mercies stir for the peoples reduced to a remnant, and strengthen them by Your kindness before the eyes of all nations. Show them Your wonders, You who dwell on high, God and King, seated upon the throne of mercy.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one. You increase forgiveness for sinners and pardon for transgressors. You perform acts of righteousness with all flesh and spirit, not dealing with them according to their wickedness. O God, You taught us to recite the thirteen attributes; remember for us today the covenant of the thirteen attributes, as You made known to the humble one of old, as it is written in Your Torah: Hashem descended in the cloud, stood there with him, and proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

Men of faith have perished; they come with the strength of their deeds; mighty ones to stand in the breach, who turn away harsh decrees... Faithfulness has perished; they used to come by the strength of their deeds. Mighty men who stood in the breach, who turned back the decrees. They were to us a wall and a shelter on the day of wrath. They calmed anger even by their whisper, they held back fury by their supplication. Before they even called to You, You answered them, knowing how to plead and to appease. Like a father You had compassion for their sake, You did not send their faces away empty. But because of the abundance of our sins we have lost them; they were gathered away from us because of our transgressions. They departed to their rest, leaving us to sighing. Those who repaired the breach have vanished, those who calmed anger have been cut off. None stands in the breach any more; those worthy to appease You have been spent. We have wandered to the four corners, and found no remedy. We return to You with shame upon our faces, to seek You, O God, in the time of our distress.

We have been astonished from calamities, our strength has been spent by distresses. We have bowed exceedingly low, brought down to the dust. Merciful One, such is our nature: we are stiff-necked and rebellious. We have cried out with our mouths: we have sinned; our heart is crooked and perverse. Most High, Your mercies are from eternity, forgiveness belongs to You. Turn back from evil, incline toward kindness. Do not hide Yourself in these times, O God, for we are in great distress. Let it be known to all Your goodness and grace toward us. Seal the mouth of the Accuser, let him not accuse us; rebuke him and let him be silent. And let a good advocate arise to vindicate us, let him proclaim our uprightness. Merciful and gracious One, You revealed Your ways to the faithful one of the house. When he asked it of You, You made known to him Your faithfulness.

And when they sinned, Israel in the wilderness, Moses stood in prayer before You, seeking mercy for Your people Israel, and thus he said in his prayer: Please forgive the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your kindness, just as You have borne with this people from Egypt until now. And You too answered him according to Your ways of goodness; You told him and were gracious to him, and You said to him: I have forgiven, according to your word.

Daniel the man greatly beloved, said before You: Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. And to Jerusalem, Your city, You said: Behold, I judge you for saying, I have not sinned. We are ashamed of our deeds, and we are covered with confusion because of our iniquities; we have no mouth to answer, nor forehead to raise our heads.

And God of our fathers, sustain this child and God of our fathers, do not make a full end of us, hold back Your hand in judgment. When rebuke comes before You, do not blot out our name from Your book. When You draw near to examine our faults, let Your mercies go before Your anger. Behold the poverty of our deeds, bring righteousness near to us. Instruct us when we cry out to You, ordain our salvation with urgency. Restore the captivity of the tents of the upright one, see how desolate his gates have become. Remember, You have sworn: this testimony shall not be forgotten from the mouth of his descendants. Release the seal of the testimony, set Your secret within Your teachings. Like the navel of the round goblet, may the spiced wine never be lacking. O God, know Israel who has known You, cast down the nations who have not known You. For You shall bring back to the stronghold those who are bound, prisoners of hope.

We have sinned. more than any people, we are ashamed more than any nation. Joy has departed from us, our heart is sick because of our iniquities. Our crown is broken, our glory has been taken from us. The dwelling of our sanctuary is destroyed because of our sins. Our citadel has become a desolation, the beauty of our land given over to strangers, our strength to foreigners. Before our eyes the fruit of our labor was plundered, torn away and taken from us. Their yoke was placed upon us, we bore it upon our shoulder. Slaves have ruled over us, and none delivers us from their hand. Many distresses have surrounded us, we called out to You, Hashem our God. You have distanced Yourself from us because of our iniquities; we turned away from You, we strayed like sheep and were lost. And still we have not turned back from our straying; how could we dare harden our faces, stiffen our necks, and say before You, Hashem our God and God of our fathers: we are righteous and have not sinned?

Ezra the scribe said before You: My God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, for our iniquities have multiplied over our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens. And You, God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in kindness, did not abandon them. Do not abandon us, our Father; do not forsake us, our King; do not forget us, our Creator; and do not make a full end of us in our exile. Fulfill for us, Hashem our God, the word You promised us through Jeremiah Your seer, as it is said: In those days and at that time, says Hashem, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant. And let no fault or sin hinder our prayer from rising before You; forgive and pardon all our iniquities, for You are a good and forgiving God.

What shall we say before You who sits on high, and what shall we recount before You who dwells in the heavens? Do You not know what is hidden and what is revealed? You know the secrets of the world, and the hidden mysteries of every living being. You search all the chambers of the heart, You see the kidneys and the heart. Nothing is concealed from You, and nothing is hidden from before Your eyes.

May it be May it be Your will, Hashem our God and God of our fathers, that You forgive us all our sins, that You atone for all our iniquities, that You pardon and forgive us all our transgressions, and that You forgive our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Your inheritance. Forgive us, our Father, for we have sinned; pardon us, our King, for we have transgressed. For You, my Lord, are good and forgiving, and abundant in kindness to all who call upon You. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, forgive my iniquity, for it is great. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, give me life; in Your righteousness, bring my soul out of distress. Hashem of hosts is with us, the God of Jacob is our stronghold, selah. Hashem of hosts, happy is the man who trusts in You. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

And He, He is merciful, He pardons iniquity and does not destroy; He often holds back His anger and does not stir up all His wrath. You, Hashem, will not withhold Your mercies from me; Your kindness and Your truth shall continually preserve me. Save us, Hashem our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to Your holy Name, to glory in Your praise. If You should mark iniquities, O God, who could stand? But forgiveness is with You, that You may be revered. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor requited us according to our iniquities. If our iniquities testify against us, Hashem, act for Your Name's sake. Remember Your compassions, Hashem, and Your kindnesses, for they are from of old. May Hashem answer you in the day of trouble; may the Name of the God of Jacob set you on high. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Our Father, our King, be gracious to us and answer us, for we have no meritorious deeds; deal with us charitably according to the abundance of Your mercies, and save us for Your Name's sake.

And now (Daniel 9:15) my Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and made Yourself a Name as it is to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. My Lord, according to all Your righteousness, let Your anger and Your fury turn away, I beg You, from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all around us. And now, hear, our God, the prayer of Your servant and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine upon Your desolate sanctuary, for Your own sake. Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. Our Father, merciful Father, show us a sign for good and gather our scattered ones from the four corners of the earth. Let all the nations recognize and know that You, Hashem, are our Father. We are the clay and You are our potter, and we are all the work of Your hand. Our Father, our King, our Rock and our Redeemer, have pity, Hashem, on Your people, and do not give Your heritage over to reproach, for the nations to rule over them; why should it be said among the peoples: where is their God? We know, Hashem, that we have sinned, and none can stand up for us except Your great Name, which will stand for us in the time of distress. And as a father has compassion on his children, have compassion on us. Spare Your people and have pity on Your heritage. Spare us, we pray, according to the abundance of Your mercies, be gracious to us, our King, and answer us. Yours, Hashem, is the righteousness, You who perform wonders at all times. Look, we pray, and save the flock You shepherd. Let not wrath rule over us, for Yours, Hashem, is the salvation, in You is our hope. God of pardons, we pray, forgive us, for You are a good and forgiving God.

We beseech You, Merciful and gracious King, remember the covenant made between the pieces, and let there appear before You the binding of the only son...

There is none There is none like You, gracious and merciful, our God. There is none like You, God slow to anger, abounding in kindness and truth. Save us and have compassion on us, deliver us from tumult and turmoil. Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look upon the stubbornness of this people, nor their wickedness, nor their sin. Turn away from Your burning anger, and relent of the evil You intended for Your people. Remove from us the plague of death, for You are merciful; for such is Your way, to grant free favor from generation to generation. We beseech You, Hashem, save us now! We beseech You, Hashem, grant success now! We beseech You, Hashem, answer us on the day we call. In You, Hashem, we have hoped; in You, Hashem, we have waited; in You, Hashem, we hope: do not remain silent, answer us. For the nations have said: their hope has perished. Let every knee bend before You, and let every stature bow down before You.

You who open Your a hand in repentance, to receive transgressors and sinners. Our soul is dismayed by the abundance of our distress. Do not forget us forever, arise and save us. Do not pour out Your wrath upon us, for we are Your people, the children of Your covenant. God, look! Our glory is diminished among the nations, and they have made us as abominable as impurity. How long shall Your strength remain captive, and Your splendor in the hand of the oppressor? Let them see, and be ashamed, and be dismayed at their own might. Awaken Your strength and save us for Your Name's sake. Let not our tribulations be of little account before You; let Your mercies speedily meet us in the time of our distresses. Not for our sake but for Your own sake, act, and do not destroy the remembrance of our remnant. For our eyes hope toward You, for You are a gracious and merciful God and King. And remember our testimony, which we proclaim every day, continually, twice with love: Hear, O Israel, Hashem is our God, Hashem is One.

and the earth my grandeur was brought low, and my ruin grew great; desolate I sit, on the day the lion leaned against the gazelle of the holy mountain, Zion my city. Therefore I mourn and grieve in the tenth month. In the tenth month the lion rose up in fury; on the tenth day of the month he built a siege wall against me. He advanced, he and all his people, to take vengeance upon my people, and they arrayed themselves in battle against them. Against the war, stand as my stronghold and my savior, against my enemies and him who subdues me. A cup full of mixed wine, give them to drink, Hashem my shepherd, my shield and the horn of my salvation.

in the tenth month, an enemy consumed me with the sword; on the tenth day of the month he prepared an ambush against me. Therefore I lament, and my joy has turned to bitterness: woe to us, for the day declines, for the shadows of evening lengthen. May evening turn into morning, and let not the traitors rise up; be gracious to Your people and bring healing to their pain. Remember for me the covenant of the fathers, as I spread out to You my palm and wrist, You who put to death and bring to life, who bring down to the grave and raise up again.

in the tenth month, a wolf of the steppes howled against my people; on the tenth day of the month he tore and devoured all who went out; a leopard lay in wait over their cities. Their cities were given over to the fire amid the abundance of their afflictions; rise up, Hashem, in Your strength, to make the arrogant drink shame; let them be utterly ashamed, when You act toward us for good, as a sign; Holy One of Israel, Hashem of hosts.

in the tenth month, the hands of the oppressor seized shield and buckler; on the tenth day of the month, like a man arrayed for war against a faithful city. Therefore gird yourself with sackcloth, tender congregation; shear off your crown and cast it away, and raise a lament upon the heights. The lament your people utters this day, in your presence, and our eyelids shall stream with water over the destruction of Your house. Awaken a day of vengeance against the oppressors who roar within Your house. Make known to me Your ways, Hashem, and teach me Your paths.

in the tenth month, my enemies raised a siege mound against my city; on the tenth day of the month my crown was cast down and my splendor fell. Those who caused my wound surrounded me with an incurable injury; my innermost being, my innermost being, I grieve. I await this day, awesome in the great council of the holy ones, and I plead before Him to overlook the transgression and the debt. Do not turn toward our wickedness, and erase the sin that is inscribed; bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return.

So By Your abundant mercies forgive us, our Father, for in our great folly we have strayed. Grant us pardon, our King, for our iniquities have multiplied. You are a God slow to anger, and You have taught us the way of repentance. Remember today the greatness of Your mercies and Your kindness for the descendants of Your beloved ones. Turn to us with mercy, for You are the Master of mercy. We come before You with supplication and prayer, as You made known to the humble one of old. And turn back from Your burning anger, as it is written in Your Torah. May we shelter and take refuge beneath Your wings, as on the day when Hashem descended in the cloud. Overlook the transgression and forgive the guilt, as on the day when He stood there with him. Hear our cry and accept our word with favor, as on the day when he proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

Then When the day of the reckoning of the valley of vision came, when Hashem's anger blazed in flashes of fire, He revealed it through the son of Buzi the seer: Write down for yourself the name of this day, the very essence of this day. I have spoken in the fire of My zeal to consume the rebellious house; behold, I am against it with anger and a blast of fury. And I will make it a byword, a mockery, and a disgrace: set on the pot, set it on. Dismay seized Zion and her palaces, her spirit trembled, her forces melted away, her heart was torn apart at the moment she was called: gather her pieces into her. To her adversaries I will hand over captives and spoil, her priests and her spices which she prepared with skill, into everlasting captivity, with none able to reopen a hand: the choicest of the flock has been taken. They ruled over you, they mocked you, ruler of nations; then you were called known, despised forever; the adversaries mistreat you, and speak against you: woe, city of blood! She transgressed, she sinned, she turned aside, she broke the covenant of God; she trespassed, she did evil, she sank into the deep pit; she cried out, and God did not hear her weeping, for her blood was within her. Hear the cry of her oppressed ones, from the hand of their oppressors; their tumult and their outcry shall not go unanswered; sevenfold You shall repay into their bosom according to their deeds: seven times the righteous falls and rises again. We have strayed in our wickedness, O God great and awesome; and if our transgressions prevail, Your compassion prevails still more; You had mercy, and in a moment You would have destroyed them in Your fury: I find distress and sorrow, and I call upon the Name of Hashem. May Your mercies stir for the peoples reduced to a remnant, and strengthen them by Your kindness before the eyes of all nations. Show them Your wonders, Rock who dwells on high, God and King, seated upon the throne of mercy.

Heed Most High, to the voice of the poor, and do not despise his supplication: his heart is bitter, on the day it was said to the son of Buzi the seer: Write down for yourself the name of this day, the very essence of this day. God of hosts, remember the calamities that so greatly afflict me. Under the sign of Capricorn, alas against me, these three calamities gathered together. And in it, the rejected sheep were struck by the plague. And in it, he who despised Your Name leaned against the city of their rejoicing. And in it was gathered the chief of the gate, that is Ezra the Priest. All these events came upon me, and many more like these. The lion exulted on that day, and an arrow brought calamity upon my city. And the tenth arose on the tenth day, to destroy all the rest of the tenth month. To destroy all the fruit of the vine and gather the clusters of my Nazirite. And I am still bound to Asshur, who stands arrayed at my side. I am cut off, and I do not know for which of the two to weep, this one or that one. Support Your people, on the day the lion leaned against the city of holy beauty. Hear their outcry, blot out their transgression, on the tenth day of the month. And the kingship, the anointed dynasty, renew it as in days of old. And for praise, as in the beginning, sanctify Your Name among us, O God. And every enemy and adversary, break by the strength of Your anger. Let them be trapped and perish, as on the day of the lightning in the holy city. And return, Most High, to the city of Zion; eye to eye we shall behold it. And then we shall say, in fair speech: behold, this is our God.

who sits in the heavens, take heed of those who pass through fire and water: and be gracious to the people who were struck, in their transgressions, twofold. On the day the oppressor first assailed the camp of the circling dance, the king of Babylon leaned against Jerusalem. You who answer in distress, do not despise the supplication of the afflicted; on the fast day of the tenth month, behold our affliction. This day on which You warned, in the vision, the son of Buzi the seer: Write down for yourself the name of this day, the very essence of this day. This day the lion lay in wait, and the leopard stationed itself against the gates. This day they leaned against the palace, the inheritance of beauty and splendor, and the plague began to strike those who defiled themselves in ashes. And in it also was gathered Ezra the Priest the scribe, and the heart of the people of the City of the Book turned to water within it: the king of Babylon leaned against Jerusalem.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one. You increase forgiveness for sinners and pardon for transgressors. You perform acts of righteousness with all flesh and spirit, not dealing with them according to their wickedness. O God, You taught us to recite the thirteen attributes; remember for us today the covenant of the thirteen attributes, as You made known to the humble one of old, as it is written in Your Torah: Hashem descended in the cloud, stood there with him, and proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

Men of faith have perished; they come with the strength of their deeds; mighty ones to stand in the breach, who turn away harsh decrees... Faithfulness has perished; they used to come by the strength of their deeds. Mighty men who stood in the breach, who turned back the decrees. They were to us a wall and a shelter on the day of wrath. They calmed anger even by their whisper, they held back fury by their supplication. Before they even called to You, You answered them, knowing how to plead and to appease. Like a father You had compassion for their sake, You did not send their faces away empty. But because of the abundance of our sins we have lost them; they were gathered away from us because of our transgressions. They departed to their rest, leaving us to sighing. Those who repaired the breach have vanished, those who calmed anger have been cut off. None stands in the breach any more; those worthy to appease You have been spent. We have wandered to the four corners, and found no remedy. We return to You with shame upon our faces, to seek You, O God, in the time of our distress.

We have been astonished from calamities, our strength has been spent by distresses. We have bowed exceedingly low, brought down to the dust. Merciful One, such is our nature: we are stiff-necked and rebellious. We have cried out with our mouths: we have sinned; our heart is crooked and perverse. Most High, Your mercies are from eternity, forgiveness belongs to You. Turn back from evil, incline toward kindness. Do not hide Yourself in these times, O God, for we are in great distress. Let it be known to all Your goodness and grace toward us. Seal the mouth of the Accuser, let him not accuse us; rebuke him and let him be silent. And let a good advocate arise to vindicate us, let him proclaim our uprightness. Merciful and gracious One, You revealed Your ways to the faithful one of the house. When he asked it of You, You made known to him Your faithfulness.

And when they sinned, Israel in the wilderness, Moses stood in prayer before You, seeking mercy for Your people Israel, and thus he said in his prayer: Please forgive the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your kindness, just as You have borne with this people from Egypt until now. And You too answered him according to Your ways of goodness; You told him and were gracious to him, and You said to him: I have forgiven, according to your word.

Daniel the man greatly beloved, said before You: Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. And to Jerusalem, Your city, You said: Behold, I judge you for saying, I have not sinned. We are ashamed of our deeds, and we are covered with confusion because of our iniquities; we have no mouth to answer, nor forehead to raise our heads.

And God of our fathers, sustain this child and God of our fathers, do not make a full end of us, hold back Your hand in judgment. When rebuke comes before You, do not blot out our name from Your book. When You draw near to examine our faults, let Your mercies go before Your anger. Behold the poverty of our deeds, bring righteousness near to us. Instruct us when we cry out to You, ordain our salvation with urgency. Restore the captivity of the tents of the upright one, see how desolate his gates have become. Remember, You have sworn: this testimony shall not be forgotten from the mouth of his descendants. Release the seal of the testimony, set Your secret within Your teachings. Like the navel of the round goblet, may the spiced wine never be lacking. O God, know Israel who has known You, cast down the nations who have not known You. For You shall bring back to the stronghold those who are bound, prisoners of hope.

We have sinned. more than any people, we are ashamed more than any nation. Joy has departed from us, our heart is sick because of our iniquities. Our crown is broken, our glory has been taken from us. The dwelling of our sanctuary is destroyed because of our sins. Our citadel has become a desolation, the beauty of our land given over to strangers, our strength to foreigners. Before our eyes the fruit of our labor was plundered, torn away and taken from us. Their yoke was placed upon us, we bore it upon our shoulder. Slaves have ruled over us, and none delivers us from their hand. Many distresses have surrounded us, we called out to You, Hashem our God. You have distanced Yourself from us because of our iniquities; we turned away from You, we strayed like sheep and were lost. And still we have not turned back from our straying; how could we dare harden our faces, stiffen our necks, and say before You, Hashem our God and God of our fathers: we are righteous and have not sinned?

Ezra the scribe said before You: My God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, for our iniquities have multiplied over our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens. And You, God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in kindness, did not abandon them. Do not abandon us, our Father; do not forsake us, our King; do not forget us, our Creator; and do not make a full end of us in our exile. Fulfill for us, Hashem our God, the word You promised us through Jeremiah Your seer, as it is said: In those days and at that time, says Hashem, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant. And let no fault or sin hinder our prayer from rising before You; forgive and pardon all our iniquities, for You are a good and forgiving God.

What shall we say before You who sits on high, and what shall we recount before You who dwells in the heavens? Do You not know what is hidden and what is revealed? You know the secrets of the world, and the hidden mysteries of every living being. You search all the chambers of the heart, You see the kidneys and the heart. Nothing is concealed from You, and nothing is hidden from before Your eyes.

May it be May it be Your will, Hashem our God and God of our fathers, that You forgive us all our sins, that You atone for all our iniquities, that You pardon and forgive us all our transgressions, and that You forgive our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Your inheritance. Forgive us, our Father, for we have sinned; pardon us, our King, for we have transgressed. For You, my Lord, are good and forgiving, and abundant in kindness to all who call upon You. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, forgive my iniquity, for it is great. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, give me life; in Your righteousness, bring my soul out of distress. Hashem of hosts is with us, the God of Jacob is our stronghold, selah. Hashem of hosts, happy is the man who trusts in You. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

And He, He is merciful, He pardons iniquity and does not destroy; He often holds back His anger and does not stir up all His wrath. You, Hashem, will not withhold Your mercies from me; Your kindness and Your truth shall continually preserve me. Save us, Hashem our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to Your holy Name, to glory in Your praise. If You should mark iniquities, O God, who could stand? But forgiveness is with You, that You may be revered. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor requited us according to our iniquities. If our iniquities testify against us, Hashem, act for Your Name's sake. Remember Your compassions, Hashem, and Your kindnesses, for they are from of old. May Hashem answer you in the day of trouble; may the Name of the God of Jacob set you on high. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Our Father, our King, be gracious to us and answer us, for we have no meritorious deeds; deal with us charitably according to the abundance of Your mercies, and save us for Your Name's sake.

And now (Daniel 9:15) my Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and made Yourself a Name as it is to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. My Lord, according to all Your righteousness, let Your anger and Your fury turn away, I beg You, from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all around us. And now, hear, our God, the prayer of Your servant and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine upon Your desolate sanctuary, for Your own sake. Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. Our Father, merciful Father, show us a sign for good and gather our scattered ones from the four corners of the earth. Let all the nations recognize and know that You, Hashem, are our Father. We are the clay and You are our potter, and we are all the work of Your hand. Our Father, our King, our Rock and our Redeemer, have pity, Hashem, on Your people, and do not give Your heritage over to reproach, for the nations to rule over them; why should it be said among the peoples: where is their God? We know, Hashem, that we have sinned, and none can stand up for us except Your great Name, which will stand for us in the time of distress. And as a father has compassion on his children, have compassion on us. Spare Your people and have pity on Your heritage. Spare us, we pray, according to the abundance of Your mercies, be gracious to us, our King, and answer us. Yours, Hashem, is the righteousness, You who perform wonders at all times. Look, we pray, and save the flock You shepherd. Let not wrath rule over us, for Yours, Hashem, is the salvation, in You is our hope. God of pardons, we pray, forgive us, for You are a good and forgiving God.

We beseech You, Merciful and gracious King, remember the covenant made between the pieces, and let there appear before You the binding of the only son...

There is none There is none like You, gracious and merciful, our God. There is none like You, God slow to anger, abounding in kindness and truth. Save us and have compassion on us, deliver us from tumult and turmoil. Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look upon the stubbornness of this people, nor their wickedness, nor their sin. Turn away from Your burning anger, and relent of the evil You intended for Your people. Remove from us the plague of death, for You are merciful; for such is Your way, to grant free favor from generation to generation. We beseech You, Hashem, save us now! We beseech You, Hashem, grant success now! We beseech You, Hashem, answer us on the day we call. In You, Hashem, we have hoped; in You, Hashem, we have waited; in You, Hashem, we hope: do not remain silent, answer us. For the nations have said: their hope has perished. Let every knee bend before You, and let every stature bow down before You.

You who open Your a hand in repentance, to receive transgressors and sinners. Our soul is dismayed by the abundance of our distress. Do not forget us forever, arise and save us. Do not pour out Your wrath upon us, for we are Your people, the children of Your covenant. God, look! Our glory is diminished among the nations, and they have made us as abominable as impurity. How long shall Your strength remain captive, and Your splendor in the hand of the oppressor? Let them see, and be ashamed, and be dismayed at their own might. Awaken Your strength and save us for Your Name's sake. Let not our tribulations be of little account before You; let Your mercies speedily meet us in the time of our distresses. Not for our sake but for Your own sake, act, and do not destroy the remembrance of our remnant. For our eyes hope toward You, for You are a gracious and merciful God and King. And remember our testimony, which we proclaim every day, continually, twice with love: Hear, O Israel, Hashem is our God, Hashem is One.

So By Your abundant mercies forgive us, our Father, for in our great folly we have strayed. Grant us pardon, our King, for our iniquities have multiplied. You are a God slow to anger, and You have taught us the way of repentance. Remember today the greatness of Your mercies and Your kindness for the descendants of Your beloved ones. Turn to us with mercy, for You are the Master of mercy. We come before You with supplication and prayer, as You made known to the humble one of old. And turn back from Your burning anger, as it is written in Your Torah. May we shelter and take refuge beneath Your wings, as on the day when Hashem descended in the cloud. Overlook the transgression and forgive the guilt, as on the day when He stood there with him. Hear our cry and accept our word with favor, as on the day when he proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in kindness and truth...

the Agagite, As he deepened his evil scheme, as he set himself against a holy people to destroy it and put it under the ban, my right hand cried out weeping to the Rock who dwells on high: for Hashem will not abandon His people. The Agagite thought to destroy the remnant of Israel and annihilate us; he cast the lot, the pur, on this day to cut us off; my right hand did not rise nor move against him, for he who trusts in Hashem, kindness surrounds him. The Agagite was led astray by his pride into a foolish counsel, he hastened to weigh out ten thousand pieces of silver to destroy a scattered sheep; my right hand purified itself with fasting and restraint: Hashem is good as a stronghold in the day of distress. The Agagite went out joyful from the house of delights, he set up a gallows to hang the faithful man upon it; my right hand clothed itself with grace and leaned upon Him who is clothed with majesty, Father of orphans and judge of widows. The Agagite hastened to summon his sages and experts in matters of women: she shall fall before him, such was their counsel; my right hand revealed the secret to Hadassah, and she clothed herself with royalty along with the fast she had imposed upon herself. The Agagite, at the hour he came to the banquet feast, she opened her mouth with wisdom, beloved and generous; my right hand exulted at seeing the downfall of Haman with affection: God revered in the great council of the holy ones. Holy One, revered in the council of the seraphim of my dwelling, let Your faithful people proclaim Your praises: for Your salvation I have hoped, Hashem; so shall all Your enemies perish, Hashem. May Your mercies stir for the peoples reduced to a remnant, and strengthen them by Your kindness before the eyes of all nations. Show them Your wonders, Rock who dwells on high, God and King, seated upon the throne of mercy. You gave Your servants hope through the visions of their writings, to deliver them to mercy before all their captors, and You spoke to their heart to heal their pains; and yet, despite this, while they were in the land of their enemies. You silenced me then, a lion from a fruitful vine, he exiled me and brought me up to a land of darkness; You sent ahead four who meditated on the law of wisdom, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: one was saved from lions, and the others from their flames. The ram and the boar hastened in tumult and confusion, my light nearly darkened and the brightness of my sun was nearly veiled; You supported my right hand by my right hand and by Hadassah, and the arrows that were aimed at me returned into the hearts of those who shot them. A worthless, vile man rose up against me in my transgression, he opened his throat against me like the boar in the forest; You sent ahead for me defenders for the war of the law of the gate, and behold, I take delight in their wisdom and their words; and yet, despite this, while they were in the land of their enemies.

And yet, despite this, while they were in the land of their enemies, I did not reject them nor abhor them so as to destroy them, breaking My covenant with them; for I am Hashem their God. I will remember My covenant with Jacob; I will also remember My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham I will remember, and I will remember the land. Out of my distress I called upon God; God answered me and set me free. Hashem is on my side, I will not fear; what can man do to me? Hashem is on my side among those who help me, and I shall see the downfall of my enemies. It is better to take refuge in Hashem than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in Hashem than to trust in nobles. All the nations surrounded me; in the Name of Hashem I cut them down. I was pushed hard so that I might fall, but Hashem helped me.

the arrogant have risen in every generation, and God protected me. First a lion arose, scattering me on every side; after him arose a bear bereft of her cubs, and to tear me apart he sold me; he thrust me hard to make me fall, but Hashem helped me. Then, as I went forth from oppression, a serpent came upon the road, against the man exhausted and weary, to instill fear in his heart; You cut him down and struck him, leg upon thigh, on the day You raised the hand of the humble one and made him victorious over them: he thrust me hard to make me fall, but Hashem helped me. When Haman the Agagite arose, like the dragon to swallow me, he wrote an accusation against me, in a single day to cut me off; God sent from heaven and saved me, He let me live and girded me with strength and salvation: he thrust me hard to make me fall, but Hashem helped me. Your Name is the tower in which I trust, O God who formed me from the womb; You delivered my soul from death and the pit, my eye from tears, my foot from stumbling, and in the land of my exile, God, You made me fruitful: he thrust me hard to make me fall, but Hashem helped me.

He thrust me hard to make me fall, but Hashem helped me. My strength and my song is God, He has become my salvation. A voice of joy and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: the right hand of Hashem does valiantly. The right hand of Hashem is exalted, the right hand of Hashem does valiantly. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of God. God has chastened me severely, but He has not given me over to death. Open for me the gates of righteousness, I will enter through them and give thanks to God. This is the gate of Hashem, the righteous shall enter through it. I thank You, for You have answered me, and have become my salvation. If Hashem had not been with us, let Israel now say.

How of foreigners, of cruel ones, like bees they surrounded us; when Haman arose, at that time, like the plunder of Shalman they despoiled us. In the abundance of their treachery, a cup of poison, to no profit, they made us drink. If Hashem had not been with us, then they would have swallowed us alive. How did they imagine, how did they conspire, together in their hearts, the plan to destroy the daughter of Israel, one nation; in the secret of their council, to exterminate them, to make them disappear as though they had never existed. And between the oven and the hearth, the waters overwhelmed us. If Hashem had not been with us, then they would have swallowed us alive. The oppressor rose up, and against me he stirred his enmity and his hatred; he established a law, decreeing the end, to destroy the congregation of the Almighty and His heritage. But the Rock had mercy, He generously repaid the good, and showed His power, to destroy him, to annihilate him and his sons who had afflicted us. The oppressor plotted, in the time of distress, and he cast the lot of his fate. But the Rock paid heed, and then He turned his own reward back upon his head. And the glorious God, in the month of Adar, showed His strength to His congregation. Through slaying, forever, He struck him who had struck us. If Hashem had not been with us, then they would have swallowed us alive.

If Hashem who was with us, let Israel now say. If Hashem had not been with us, when men rose up against us, then they would have swallowed us alive, when their anger blazed against us. Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, a torrent would have passed over our soul. Then would have passed over our soul the raging waters. Blessed be Hashem, who did not give us as prey to their teeth. Our soul escaped like a bird from the fowler's snare; the snare was broken, and we escaped. Our help is in the Name of Hashem, who made heaven and earth.

O Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. Bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one. You increase forgiveness for sinners and pardon for transgressors. You perform acts of righteousness with all flesh and spirit, not dealing with them according to their wickedness. O God, You taught us to recite the thirteen attributes; remember for us today the covenant of the thirteen attributes, as You made known to the humble one of old, as it is written in Your Torah: Hashem descended in the cloud, stood there with him, and proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

Men of faith have perished; they come with the strength of their deeds; mighty ones to stand in the breach, who turn away harsh decrees... Faithfulness has perished; they used to come by the strength of their deeds. Mighty men who stood in the breach, who turned back the decrees. They were to us a wall and a shelter on the day of wrath. They calmed anger even by their whisper, they held back fury by their supplication. Before they even called to You, You answered them, knowing how to plead and to appease. Like a father You had compassion for their sake, You did not send their faces away empty. But because of the abundance of our sins we have lost them; they were gathered away from us because of our transgressions. They departed to their rest, leaving us to sighing. Those who repaired the breach have vanished, those who calmed anger have been cut off. None stands in the breach any more; those worthy to appease You have been spent. We have wandered to the four corners, and found no remedy. We return to You with shame upon our faces, to seek You, O God, in the time of our distress.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one. You increase forgiveness for sinners and pardon for transgressors. You perform acts of righteousness with all flesh and spirit, not dealing with them according to their wickedness.

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

We have been astonished from calamities, our strength has been spent by distresses. We have bowed exceedingly low, brought down to the dust. Merciful One, such is our nature: we are stiff-necked and rebellious. We have cried out with our mouths: we have sinned; our heart is crooked and perverse. Most High, Your mercies are from eternity, forgiveness belongs to You. Turn back from evil, incline toward kindness. Do not hide Yourself in these times, O God, for we are in great distress. Let it be known to all Your goodness and grace toward us. Seal the mouth of the Accuser, let him not accuse us; rebuke him and let him be silent. And let a good advocate arise to vindicate us, let him proclaim our uprightness. Merciful and gracious One, You revealed Your ways to the faithful one of the house. When he asked it of You, You made known to him Your faithfulness.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one.

And when they sinned, Israel in the wilderness, Moses stood in prayer before You, seeking mercy for Your people Israel, and thus he said in his prayer: Please forgive the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your kindness, just as You have borne with this people from Egypt until now. And You too answered him according to Your ways of goodness; You told him and were gracious to him, and You said to him: I have forgiven, according to your word.

Daniel the man greatly beloved, said before You: Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. And to Jerusalem, Your city, You said: Behold, I judge you for saying, I have not sinned. We are ashamed of our deeds, and we are covered with confusion because of our iniquities; we have no mouth to answer, nor forehead to raise our heads.

And God of our fathers, sustain this child and God of our fathers, do not make a full end of us, hold back Your hand in judgment. When rebuke comes before You, do not blot out our name from Your book. When You draw near to examine our faults, let Your mercies go before Your anger. Behold the poverty of our deeds, bring righteousness near to us. Instruct us when we cry out to You, ordain our salvation with urgency. Restore the captivity of the tents of the upright one, see how desolate his gates have become. Remember, You have sworn: this testimony shall not be forgotten from the mouth of his descendants. Release the seal of the testimony, set Your secret within Your teachings. Like the navel of the round goblet, may the spiced wine never be lacking. O God, know Israel who has known You, cast down the nations who have not known You. For You shall bring back to the stronghold those who are bound, prisoners of hope.

We have sinned. more than any people, we are ashamed more than any nation. Joy has departed from us, our heart is sick because of our iniquities. Our crown is broken, our glory has been taken from us. The dwelling of our sanctuary is destroyed because of our sins. Our citadel has become a desolation, the beauty of our land given over to strangers, our strength to foreigners. Before our eyes the fruit of our labor was plundered, torn away and taken from us. Their yoke was placed upon us, we bore it upon our shoulder. Slaves have ruled over us, and none delivers us from their hand. Many distresses have surrounded us, we called out to You, Hashem our God. You have distanced Yourself from us because of our iniquities; we turned away from You, we strayed like sheep and were lost. And still we have not turned back from our straying; how could we dare harden our faces, stiffen our necks, and say before You, Hashem our God and God of our fathers: we are righteous and have not sinned?

Ezra the scribe said before You: My God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, for our iniquities have multiplied over our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens. And You, God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in kindness, did not abandon them. Do not abandon us, our Father; do not forsake us, our King; do not forget us, our Creator; and do not make a full end of us in our exile. Fulfill for us, Hashem our God, the word You promised us through Jeremiah Your seer, as it is said: In those days and at that time, says Hashem, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant. And let no fault or sin hinder our prayer from rising before You; forgive and pardon all our iniquities, for You are a good and forgiving God.

What shall we say before You who sits on high, and what shall we recount before You who dwells in the heavens? Do You not know what is hidden and what is revealed? You know the secrets of the world, and the hidden mysteries of every living being. You search all the chambers of the heart, You see the kidneys and the heart. Nothing is concealed from You, and nothing is hidden from before Your eyes.

May it be May it be Your will, Hashem our God and God of our fathers, that You forgive us all our sins, that You atone for all our iniquities, that You pardon and forgive us all our transgressions, and that You forgive our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Your inheritance. Forgive us, our Father, for we have sinned; pardon us, our King, for we have transgressed. For You, my Lord, are good and forgiving, and abundant in kindness to all who call upon You. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, forgive my iniquity, for it is great. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, give me life; in Your righteousness, bring my soul out of distress. Hashem of hosts is with us, the God of Jacob is our stronghold, selah. Hashem of hosts, happy is the man who trusts in You. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

And He, He is merciful, He pardons iniquity and does not destroy; He often holds back His anger and does not stir up all His wrath. You, Hashem, will not withhold Your mercies from me; Your kindness and Your truth shall continually preserve me. Save us, Hashem our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to Your holy Name, to glory in Your praise. If You should mark iniquities, O God, who could stand? But forgiveness is with You, that You may be revered. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor requited us according to our iniquities. If our iniquities testify against us, Hashem, act for Your Name's sake. Remember Your compassions, Hashem, and Your kindnesses, for they are from of old. May Hashem answer you in the day of trouble; may the Name of the God of Jacob set you on high. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Our Father, our King, be gracious to us and answer us, for we have no meritorious deeds; deal with us charitably according to the abundance of Your mercies, and save us for Your Name's sake.

And now (Daniel 9:15) my Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and made Yourself a Name as it is to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. My Lord, according to all Your righteousness, let Your anger and Your fury turn away, I beg You, from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all around us. And now, hear, our God, the prayer of Your servant and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine upon Your desolate sanctuary, for Your own sake. Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. Our Father, merciful Father, show us a sign for good and gather our scattered ones from the four corners of the earth. Let all the nations recognize and know that You, Hashem, are our Father. We are the clay and You are our potter, and we are all the work of Your hand. Our Father, our King, our Rock and our Redeemer, have pity, Hashem, on Your people, and do not give Your heritage over to reproach, for the nations to rule over them; why should it be said among the peoples: where is their God? We know, Hashem, that we have sinned, and none can stand up for us except Your great Name, which will stand for us in the time of distress. And as a father has compassion on his children, have compassion on us. Spare Your people and have pity on Your heritage. Spare us, we pray, according to the abundance of Your mercies, be gracious to us, our King, and answer us. Yours, Hashem, is the righteousness, You who perform wonders at all times. Look, we pray, and save the flock You shepherd. Let not wrath rule over us, for Yours, Hashem, is the salvation, in You is our hope. God of pardons, we pray, forgive us, for You are a good and forgiving God.

We beseech You, Merciful and gracious King, remember the covenant made between the pieces, and let there appear before You the binding of the only son...

There is none There is none like You, gracious and merciful, our God. There is none like You, God slow to anger, abounding in kindness and truth. Save us and have compassion on us, deliver us from tumult and turmoil. Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look upon the stubbornness of this people, nor their wickedness, nor their sin. Turn away from Your burning anger, and relent of the evil You intended for Your people. Remove from us the plague of death, for You are merciful; for such is Your way, to grant free favor from generation to generation. We beseech You, Hashem, save us now! We beseech You, Hashem, grant success now! We beseech You, Hashem, answer us on the day we call. In You, Hashem, we have hoped; in You, Hashem, we have waited; in You, Hashem, we hope: do not remain silent, answer us. For the nations have said: their hope has perished. Let every knee bend before You, and let every stature bow down before You.

You who open Your a hand in repentance, to receive transgressors and sinners. Our soul is dismayed by the abundance of our distress. Do not forget us forever, arise and save us. Do not pour out Your wrath upon us, for we are Your people, the children of Your covenant. God, look! Our glory is diminished among the nations, and they have made us as abominable as impurity. How long shall Your strength remain captive, and Your splendor in the hand of the oppressor? Let them see, and be ashamed, and be dismayed at their own might. Awaken Your strength and save us for Your Name's sake. Let not our tribulations be of little account before You; let Your mercies speedily meet us in the time of our distresses. Not for our sake but for Your own sake, act, and do not destroy the remembrance of our remnant. For our eyes hope toward You, for You are a gracious and merciful God and King. And remember our testimony, which we proclaim every day, continually, twice with love: Hear, O Israel, Hashem is our God, Hashem is One.

and the earth my grandeur was brought low, the day the wicked one thought to subdue me; the joy of my heart ceased, and I was cast out from my house of rest. My gates mourn and grieve, the day my noble one and my savior were cut off. Therefore I lament day after day, in the fourth month.

in the tenth month, the fourth month, calamities and sighs enveloped me, on the seventeenth of that month; I wearied of my sighing and found no rest; I groaned bitterly in weeping, over every shaven head; for on this day the Tablets were broken. The Tablets departed from me and tribulations surrounded me, the hand of my adversary prevailed and scattered me on every side; turn back, I pray, and shield those who await the wondrous end, for the sun and shield is Hashem of hosts.

in the tenth month, the fourth month, I imagined I could climb out of the miry clay, but none upholds me; on the seventeenth of that month I became prey, food, and destruction; I found no rest, and my pain is continually before me, for on this day the daily offering ceased. The daily offering, the day it was removed, my wailing grew as the wailing of Eglayim, and my mourning grew as the mourning of Hadadrimmon, doubled; turn back, I pray, and revive our slumbering ones, O God who dwells in the heavens, give us life from this time forth.

in the tenth month, the fourth month, I bore the wrath of the Rock, and His fury burned within me; on the seventeenth of that month, dread seized me and a devastating storm; I forgot what is good, and my soul turned away from peace because of the strife of Seir, for on this day the city wall was breached. The city, the day it was breached, when Teman and Magdiel arose, my strength failed and found no help; turn back, I pray, and sanctify the remnant that escaped from Ariel: they have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, and revered the God of Israel.

in the tenth month, the fourth month, day, alas, alas, day of rebuke and wrath; on the seventeenth of that month my glory went into exile and my splendor departed from me; my wound has no healing, my injury is incurable and my spirit is broken, for on this day Apostomus burned the Torah. The Torah, the day it was burned, my sorrows were renewed upon me, and my elders and my aged ones ceased to come from the holy city; turn back, I pray, and in Your strength be gracious to the congregation of my faithful ones: a spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Hashem.

in the tenth month, the fourth month, the stranger measured out my iniquity with a full measure and poured it all out; on the seventeenth of that month, the stranger laid waste my dwelling and devoured Jacob; year after year, on this day, I eat bitterness, for on this day an idol was set up in the Temple. The day the idol was set up, an image of jealousy and abomination, my spirit was wounded and my hope was disappointed; turn back, I pray, and heal the waywardness of Your people, and love them freely: bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return.

So By Your abundant mercies forgive us, our Father, for in our great folly we have strayed. Grant us pardon, our King, for our iniquities have multiplied. You are a God slow to anger, and You have taught us the way of repentance. Remember today the greatness of Your mercies and Your kindness for the descendants of Your beloved ones. Turn to us with mercy, for You are the Master of mercy. We come before You with supplication and prayer, as You made known to the humble one of old. And turn back from Your burning anger, as it is written in Your Torah. May we shelter and take refuge beneath Your wings, as on the day when Hashem descended in the cloud. Overlook the transgression and forgive the guilt, as on the day when He stood there with him. Hear our cry and accept our word with favor, as on the day when he proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in kindness and truth...

then through my betrayal, the word of him who dwells in my abode; as my sin spread, it made heavy my yoke, my accuser; a stranger prevailed over me, striking me a blow to crush me, his anger tore at me and he hated me. I abandoned the ways he had taught me; therefore he stirred up against me anger, fury, and wrath; he poured out his rage upon me and pierced me with his arrows, and set me up as his target. Five calamities befell me on this day, my creatures were torn apart and I was made a desolation; my soul grew weary to the point of death and faintness, I writhed at hearing it, I was dismayed at seeing it. All these things, when I remember them, awaken sighs within me; a flame has kindled me, consuming my loins and my innards; I magnify my bitter lamentation and put joy far from me, for on this day the Tablets were broken. A stranger banded together against me and gathered his multitude, they surrounded me like waters, and I sank with none to uphold me; therefore I shall wail with my mouth, and continually I shall moan, for on this day the daily offering ceased. My rebels roared like the roaring of the waters of Michal, my life was cut off in the pit, and I was given over as food; he proclaimed a summons against me, and my multitude was struck with terrible mourning, for on this day an idol was set up in the Temple. O you who are populous, a stranger has confined you, and laid bare your gates; he made my vineyard a desolation, on the day of wrath and fury; the stranger saw his desire fulfilled, and his hand grew strong with violence, for on this day Apostomus burned the Torah.

They gnashed of the wicked, on the day Hashem's wrath was aroused against me; the cruel and perverse stranger spared neither the aged nor the young, his anger burned against me and his firebrands consumed me, for on this day the city wall was breached. Have mercy, Hashem, and speak to the heart of the grieving ones, who sit dumbfounded on the seventeenth of the month; O God, roll down upon them, from on high, the abundance of Your mercies, God and King, seated upon the throne of mercy.

Heed bound, who was handed over into the hands of Babylon and the prince of the city: toward You he groans, this long while, and pleads like a young child. Before You, Rock, with constricted heart, the turmoil of his innards stirs like a storm, on the day the enemy prevailed and the city wall was breached. Therefore I bow down and clasp my hands, on the fifth day they summoned me, and because of the calf, the Tablets left me. And the stranger seized the stronghold, and put me under lock, and he also abolished the daily offering, and prevented me from bringing it. And an idol was placed, in the sanctuary entire, and the stranger burned Your law in fire. I tremble deeply at this, and I shudder, on the day the Almighty stripped me bare; and the serpent from the north overwhelmed me like a flood, and led captive the land of the gazelle, and also shaped me like a ball. On the day the light of Sheshach darkened, he thrust me toward the hand of Persia; he devoured me, he crushed me, and I raise a lament over this. Is it forever, my stronghold, is it forever that Your anger shall smolder? Repair my breach through the Son of Peretz, and gather the rose from among the thorns. Open Your eyes, accept my prayer like the fat of a rich offering. Build the dwelling place, and restore to us the border, the Carmel and the Bashan. Judge him who is silent, and then he shall repay him who kindles and him who sets aflame.

My God, our salvation, hear our cry, and behold our desolation, and the length of our exile, every year, when we remember our affliction, on the day when five calamities befell our fathers. Please, God of spirits, who searches hidden secrets, look upon the scattered flock, dispersed to the four winds, every year at this time they sigh, on the day that through straying the Tablets were broken, and throughout all the days of our years we must grieve over our sorrow. Draw us up from the miry clay in which we are sunk with none to uphold us, You gave Your flock over as food, to plunder and destruction, every year on this day sorrow attaches itself, the day the hand of the stranger rose up, and the daily offering was abolished, because of the abundance of our iniquities and the enormity of our sins. O God who is all-powerful, deliver from mourning those who mourn, from the hand of the perverse and foolish one who devoured the remnant of Jacob, every year on this day we eat bitterness, when the stranger was set up against me, an idol in the sanctuary; over all our misfortunes let our tears flow. How awesome is our breach, for we have turned away from awe, O You who are radiant, clothed in light, who teaches all my recompense, every year on this day I will examine my lament, because on this day Apostomus burned the Torah; therefore we lie down in our shame, because of the ruin of our house of glory. Merciful One, who atones for iniquity, and does not stir up all His fury, swiftly deliver from the hands of the goat the scattered sheep and the little flock, every year on this day the turmoil of his innards stirs like a storm, the day the strangers prevailed and the city wall was breached, for we have become a mockery and a derision to all who surround us. Merciful One, return with mercy to afflicted Zion, and hasten, we pray, to grant to the grieving wife the consolation that is written; and then we shall sing a song, when You rebuild the ruined city, gathering our scattered ones, and restoring our captivity.

God King who sits upon the throne of mercy, who conducts Himself with loving-kindness, forgiving the iniquities of His people, causing them to pass away one by one. You increase forgiveness for sinners and pardon for transgressors. You perform acts of righteousness with all flesh and spirit, not dealing with them according to their wickedness. O God, You taught us to recite the thirteen attributes; remember for us today the covenant of the thirteen attributes, as You made known to the humble one of old, as it is written in Your Torah: Hashem descended in the cloud, stood there with him, and proclaimed the Name of Hashem. And there it is said:

And He passed Hashem passed before him and proclaimed: Hashem, Hashem, God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in kindness and truth, keeping kindness for thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and clearing the guilty...

Men of faith have perished; they come with the strength of their deeds; mighty ones to stand in the breach, who turn away harsh decrees... Faithfulness has perished; they used to come by the strength of their deeds. Mighty men who stood in the breach, who turned back the decrees. They were to us a wall and a shelter on the day of wrath. They calmed anger even by their whisper, they held back fury by their supplication. Before they even called to You, You answered them, knowing how to plead and to appease. Like a father You had compassion for their sake, You did not send their faces away empty. But because of the abundance of our sins we have lost them; they were gathered away from us because of our transgressions. They departed to their rest, leaving us to sighing. Those who repaired the breach have vanished, those who calmed anger have been cut off. None stands in the breach any more; those worthy to appease You have been spent. We have wandered to the four corners, and found no remedy. We return to You with shame upon our faces, to seek You, O God, in the time of our distress.

We have been astonished from calamities, our strength has been spent by distresses. We have bowed exceedingly low, brought down to the dust. Merciful One, such is our nature: we are stiff-necked and rebellious. We have cried out with our mouths: we have sinned; our heart is crooked and perverse. Most High, Your mercies are from eternity, forgiveness belongs to You. Turn back from evil, incline toward kindness. Do not hide Yourself in these times, O God, for we are in great distress. Let it be known to all Your goodness and grace toward us. Seal the mouth of the Accuser, let him not accuse us; rebuke him and let him be silent. And let a good advocate arise to vindicate us, let him proclaim our uprightness. Merciful and gracious One, You revealed Your ways to the faithful one of the house. When he asked it of You, You made known to him Your faithfulness.

And when they sinned, Israel in the wilderness, Moses stood in prayer before You, seeking mercy for Your people Israel, and thus he said in his prayer: Please forgive the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your kindness, just as You have borne with this people from Egypt until now. And You too answered him according to Your ways of goodness; You told him and were gracious to him, and You said to him: I have forgiven, according to your word.

Daniel the man greatly beloved, said before You: Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. And to Jerusalem, Your city, You said: Behold, I judge you for saying, I have not sinned. We are ashamed of our deeds, and we are covered with confusion because of our iniquities; we have no mouth to answer, nor forehead to raise our heads.

And God of our fathers, sustain this child and God of our fathers, do not make a full end of us, hold back Your hand in judgment. When rebuke comes before You, do not blot out our name from Your book. When You draw near to examine our faults, let Your mercies go before Your anger. Behold the poverty of our deeds, bring righteousness near to us. Instruct us when we cry out to You, ordain our salvation with urgency. Restore the captivity of the tents of the upright one, see how desolate his gates have become. Remember, You have sworn: this testimony shall not be forgotten from the mouth of his descendants. Release the seal of the testimony, set Your secret within Your teachings. Like the navel of the round goblet, may the spiced wine never be lacking. O God, know Israel who has known You, cast down the nations who have not known You. For You shall bring back to the stronghold those who are bound, prisoners of hope.

We have sinned. more than any people, we are ashamed more than any nation. Joy has departed from us, our heart is sick because of our iniquities. Our crown is broken, our glory has been taken from us. The dwelling of our sanctuary is destroyed because of our sins. Our citadel has become a desolation, the beauty of our land given over to strangers, our strength to foreigners. Before our eyes the fruit of our labor was plundered, torn away and taken from us. Their yoke was placed upon us, we bore it upon our shoulder. Slaves have ruled over us, and none delivers us from their hand. Many distresses have surrounded us, we called out to You, Hashem our God. You have distanced Yourself from us because of our iniquities; we turned away from You, we strayed like sheep and were lost. And still we have not turned back from our straying; how could we dare harden our faces, stiffen our necks, and say before You, Hashem our God and God of our fathers: we are righteous and have not sinned?

Ezra the scribe said before You: My God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift up my face to You, my God, for our iniquities have multiplied over our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens. And You, God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in kindness, did not abandon them. Do not abandon us, our Father; do not forsake us, our King; do not forget us, our Creator; and do not make a full end of us in our exile. Fulfill for us, Hashem our God, the word You promised us through Jeremiah Your seer, as it is said: In those days and at that time, says Hashem, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant. And let no fault or sin hinder our prayer from rising before You; forgive and pardon all our iniquities, for You are a good and forgiving God.

What shall we say before You who sits on high, and what shall we recount before You who dwells in the heavens? Do You not know what is hidden and what is revealed? You know the secrets of the world, and the hidden mysteries of every living being. You search all the chambers of the heart, You see the kidneys and the heart. Nothing is concealed from You, and nothing is hidden from before Your eyes.

May it be May it be Your will, Hashem our God and God of our fathers, that You forgive us all our sins, that You atone for all our iniquities, that You pardon and forgive us all our transgressions, and that You forgive our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Your inheritance. Forgive us, our Father, for we have sinned; pardon us, our King, for we have transgressed. For You, my Lord, are good and forgiving, and abundant in kindness to all who call upon You. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, forgive my iniquity, for it is great. For Your Name's sake, Hashem, give me life; in Your righteousness, bring my soul out of distress. Hashem of hosts is with us, the God of Jacob is our stronghold, selah. Hashem of hosts, happy is the man who trusts in You. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Bring us back to You, Hashem, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

And He, He is merciful, He pardons iniquity and does not destroy; He often holds back His anger and does not stir up all His wrath. You, Hashem, will not withhold Your mercies from me; Your kindness and Your truth shall continually preserve me. Save us, Hashem our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to Your holy Name, to glory in Your praise. If You should mark iniquities, O God, who could stand? But forgiveness is with You, that You may be revered. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor requited us according to our iniquities. If our iniquities testify against us, Hashem, act for Your Name's sake. Remember Your compassions, Hashem, and Your kindnesses, for they are from of old. May Hashem answer you in the day of trouble; may the Name of the God of Jacob set you on high. Hashem, save! May the King answer us on the day we call. Our Father, our King, be gracious to us and answer us, for we have no meritorious deeds; deal with us charitably according to the abundance of Your mercies, and save us for Your Name's sake.

And now (Daniel 9:15) my Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and made Yourself a Name as it is to this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. My Lord, according to all Your righteousness, let Your anger and Your fury turn away, I beg You, from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all around us. And now, hear, our God, the prayer of Your servant and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine upon Your desolate sanctuary, for Your own sake. Incline, my God, Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name; for it is not because of our righteousness that we lay our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Lord, hear; my Lord, forgive; my Lord, hearken and act, do not delay, for Your own sake, my God, for Your Name is called upon Your city and upon Your people. Our Father, merciful Father, show us a sign for good and gather our scattered ones from the four corners of the earth. Let all the nations recognize and know that You, Hashem, are our Father. We are the clay and You are our potter, and we are all the work of Your hand. Our Father, our King, our Rock and our Redeemer, have pity, Hashem, on Your people, and do not give Your heritage over to reproach, for the nations to rule over them; why should it be said among the peoples: where is their God? We know, Hashem, that we have sinned, and none can stand up for us except Your great Name, which will stand for us in the time of distress. And as a father has compassion on his children, have compassion on us. Spare Your people and have pity on Your heritage. Spare us, we pray, according to the abundance of Your mercies, be gracious to us, our King, and answer us. Yours, Hashem, is the righteousness, You who perform wonders at all times. Look, we pray, and save the flock You shepherd. Let not wrath rule over us, for Yours, Hashem, is the salvation, in You is our hope. God of pardons, we pray, forgive us, for You are a good and forgiving God.

We beseech You, Merciful and gracious King, remember the covenant made between the pieces, and let there appear before You the binding of the only son...

There is none There is none like You, gracious and merciful, our God. There is none like You, God slow to anger, abounding in kindness and truth. Save us and have compassion on us, deliver us from tumult and turmoil. Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look upon the stubbornness of this people, nor their wickedness, nor their sin. Turn away from Your burning anger, and relent of the evil You intended for Your people. Remove from us the plague of death, for You are merciful; for such is Your way, to grant free favor from generation to generation. We beseech You, Hashem, save us now! We beseech You, Hashem, grant success now! We beseech You, Hashem, answer us on the day we call. In You, Hashem, we have hoped; in You, Hashem, we have waited; in You, Hashem, we hope: do not remain silent, answer us. For the nations have said: their hope has perished. Let every knee bend before You, and let every stature bow down before You.

You who open Your a hand in repentance, to receive transgressors and sinners. Our soul is dismayed by the abundance of our distress. Do not forget us forever, arise and save us. Do not pour out Your wrath upon us, for we are Your people, the children of Your covenant. God, look! Our glory is diminished among the nations, and they have made us as abominable as impurity. How long shall Your strength remain captive, and Your splendor in the hand of the oppressor? Let them see, and be ashamed, and be dismayed at their own might. Awaken Your strength and save us for Your Name's sake. Let not our tribulations be of little account before You; let Your mercies speedily meet us in the time of our distresses. Not for our sake but for Your own sake, act, and do not destroy the remembrance of our remnant. For our eyes hope toward You, for You are a gracious and merciful God and King. And remember our testimony, which we proclaim every day, continually, twice with love: Hear, O Israel, Hashem is our God, Hashem is One.

Blessed are You, Hashem, our God, King of the universe, the true Judge.

Righteous are You, Hashem, and Your judgments are right. Hashem is righteous in all His ways, and pious in all His deeds.

He will swallow up He will swallow up death forever, and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces, and remove the reproach of His people from all the earth, for Hashem has spoken. and the comforters say: May you be comforted from Heaven. until here during the seven days of mourning
