Baruch atah, Adonai
Eloheinu v’Elohei avoteinu v’imoteinu,
Elohei Avraham, Elohei Yitzchak, v’Elohei Yaakov,
Elohei Sarah, Elohei Rivkah, Elohei Rachel v’Elohei Leah.
Ha-El hagadol hagibor v’hanora,
El elyon, konei shamayim vaaretz.

Magein avot v’imahot bidvaro,

Ha-El hakadosh, she-ein kamohu,
hameiniach l’amo b’yom Shabbat kodsho
ki vam ratzah l’haniach lahem
l’fanav naavod b’yirah vafachad,
v’nodeh lish’mo b’chol yom tamid,

El hahodaot, adon hashalom,

Blessed are You, Adonai,
Our God and God of those who came before us:
God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob,
God of Sarah, God of Rebecca, God of Rachel and God of Leah.
Great, mighty and revered God, God transcendent,
Maker of heaven and earth.

With a word, You shielded our ancestors;
with a phrase, You give all things life.
Sacred God, beyond compare,
who took joy in providing rest for Your people
on Your holy Shabbat day.
We will serve You reverently,
acknowledging on each and every day forever, just who You are:
the One to whom blessing goes,
the One to whom thanksgiving is due,
Source of peace, who recalls the time of creation
by sanctifying Shabbat, blessing the seventh day,
and in holiness, granting rest to a people overflowing with joy.
