אזכרה לנספי הקורונה – להוסיף בתפילות יזכור:
יִזְכֹּר אֱלֹהִים אֶת נִשְׁמוֹת כֹּל חַלְלֵי מַגֵּפַת הַקּוֹרוֹנָה, אֲנָשִׁים וְנָשִׁים, זְקֵנִים וּזְקֵנוֹת, שֶׁנְּשִׁימָתָם נֶעֶתְקָה מֵהֶם בְּלֹא עֵת, בְּשָׁכְבָם גַּלְמוּדִים בְּבָתֵּי הַחוֹלִים וּבְהִתְעַלְפַם בְּרֹאשׁ חוּצוֹת, וְאֶת עוֹבְדֵי הָרְפוּאָה, וּבָהֶם רוֹפְאִים וְרוֹפְאוֹת, אַחִים וְאֲחָיוֹת, שֶׁמָּסְרוּ נַפְשָׁם עַל רְפוּאָתָם וְנֶאֶסְפוּ מִפְּנֵי הָרָעָה, בַּעֲבוּר שֶׁבְּלִי נֶדֶר נִתֵּן צְדָקָה בְּעַד הַזְכָּרַת נִשְׁמָתָם.
גּוֹדֵר פְּרָצוֹת יִגְדֹּר הַפִרְצָה שֶׁפָּרַץ בְּעוֹלָמוֹ, וְיוֹשִיעֵנוּ מִן הַמַּגֵּפָה וּמִן הַשִּׂנְאָה וּמִן הַקִּנְאָה וּמִן הַתַּחֲרוּת.
יָהּ נִשְׁמַת עוֹלָם הַנּוֹתֶנֶת דַּעַת וּמְלַמֶּדֶת בִּינָה הִיא תִּתֵּן לַמְּבִינוֹת וְלַחוֹקְרוֹת לֵב לָדַעַת וְלִלְמֹד אֶת רְפוּאָתָהּ וְתִשְׁלַח לָנוּ וּלְכֹל בָּאֵי עוֹלָם חֹסֶן יְשׁוּעוֹת בְּקָרוֹב.
חָסִין קַדִּישׁ בְּרוֹב טוּבְךָ נַהֵל עוֹלָמֶךָ יָחִיד גֵּאָה לְעוֹלָמְךָ פְּנֵה זוֹכְרֵי קְדֻשָּׁתֶּךָ. אֵל נָא רְפָא נָא לָנוּ — אֵל נָא רְפָא נָא לָנוּ
***
לאמירה בסמיכות לתפלת גשם או לקריאת ״ויעל משה״:
אָז לָךְ שִׁלְטוֹן בְּכׇל חַי. בְּכֵן אֵין שִׁלְטוֹן בְּיוֹם הַמָּוֶת.
זֶה לְפָנֶיךָ לֹא יִצְדַּק חַי. חֲמָתָךְ חֲמַת מַלְאֲכֵי מָוֶת.
טוֹב וּמוּטַב כֶּלֶב חַי. יוֹצֵא וָבָא וְלֹא אַרְיֵה בַּמָּוֶת.
סֶלָה תִּזָּכֵר בְּפִי כֹּל חַי. עַל כֵּן אֵין זִכְרְךָ בַּמָּוֶת.
פְּקוּדָה בְּיָדְךָ נֶפֶשׁ כׇּל חָי. צַדִּיק תִּפְדֶּה מֵרֹעַ מָוֶת.
קַיָם וָחַי אַתָּה וּמְחַיֶּה כֹּל חַי. רוֹצֶה לְשׁוֹבֵב אֱנוֹשׁ עַד יוֹם הַמָּוֶת.
שְׁלוֹם תַּשְׁמִיעַ לְכֹל חַי. תַּעְצֹר מַגֵּפָה תִּבְלַע מָוֶת.
ככתוב בִּלַּע הַמָּוֶת לָנֶצַח, וּמָחָה אֲדֹנָי אֶלֹהִים דִּמְעָה מֵעַל כׇּל פָּנִים.
(יניי, מתוך קרובה לסדר ״ויאמר ה׳ אל משה הן קרבו ימיך למות״, 2892 ,2152 ,JTS, ENA, ראו גם צ״מ רבינוביץ, מחזור פיוטי יניי, עמ׳ 188)
רִבּוֹן הָעוֹלָמִים. פְדֵה וְהַצֵּל אֶת עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן הַדֶּבֶר וּמִן הַחֶרֶב ומן הַבִּזָּה וּמִן הַשִּׁדָּפוֹן וּמִן הַיֵרָקוֹן וּמִכׇּל מִינֵי מַשְׁחִית וּמִכׇּל מִינֵי פּוּרְעָנוּת הַמִּתְרַגֵּשׁ לְעוֹלָם. טֶרֶם נִקְרָא וְאַתָּה תַּעֲנֶה. בָּרוּךְ עוֹצֵר הַמַּגֵּפָה. (בבלי כתובות ח ע״ב)	Master of the worlds, redeem and save, rescue and deliver Your people, Israel, from the pestilence and from the sword, and from spoil, and from the blight, and from the mildew, and from all types of destruction that suddenly erupt and come to the world. Before we call and you will respond. Blessed are you, who halts the plague.^[1] Ketubot 8b in the name of Resh Laḳish.

Additional Notes:

The views expressed in this work represent the views of their creator(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the Open Siddur Project's developers, its diverse community of volunteer contributors, or its institutional partners.
We strongly advise against printing sacred texts and art containing divine names as these copies must be regarded with reverence, complicating their casual treatment and disposal.
If you must dispose of a printed sacred text (one containing Divine Names), please locate the closest genizah (often established by a synagogue) and contact its custodians for further instructions. We also recommend using Morah Yehudis Fishman's Prayer for Adding a Work to the Genizah.

Support this work: The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-commercial, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libre Open Access archive of contemplative praxes, liturgical readings, and Jewish prayer literature (historic and contemporary, familiar and obscure) composed in every era, region, and language Jews have ever prayed. Our goal is to provide a platform for sharing open-source resources, tools, and content for individuals and communities crafting their own prayerbook (siddur). Through this we hope to empower personal autonomy, preserve customs, and foster creativity in religious culture.

ויהי נעם אדני אלהינו עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננה עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננהו׃ (תהלים צ:יז) · "May the pleasantness of אדֹני our elo’ah be upon us; may our handiwork be established for us — our handiwork, may it be established." (Psalms 90:17)
