רִבּוֹן הָעוֹלָמִים, עָדֶיךָ בָּאנוּ הַיּוֹם לְהַלֵּל וּלְהוֹדוֹת לְךָ עַל כׇּל הַטּוֹבוֹת שֶׁגָמַלְתָ לָמַלְכָּה הַיּוֹשֶׁבֶת עַל כִּסֵּא אֲבוֹתֶיהָ. כֶּתֶר מַלְכוּת וְהָדָר עַל רֹאשָׁהּ. שִׁבְטָהּ שֵּׁבֶט מִשְׁפָט וּמוּסָר, שֵּׁבֶט שִׁבְיוֹן וּדְרוֹר. מְגַמָּתָהּ לִשְׁלוֹם חֶבְרַת בְּנֵּי הָאָדָם, לְחֹפֶשׁ הָאֱנוֹשׁוּת וּלְאַחְדוּת הָעַמִים בְּכׇל אַרְצוֹת שִׁלְטוֹנָהּ הִיא עוֹשָׂה צְדָקוֹת לְכׇל גֶזַע וְלָשׁוֹן וָדָת. |
Lord of the Universe, We come before You today in prayer and gratitude for the gracious goodness You have bestowed upon our Sovereign Lady Queen Elizabeth. Her crown is honour and majesty; her sceptre, law and morality. Her concern has been for welfare, freedom and unity, and in the lands of her dominion she has sustained justice and liberty for all races, tongues and creeds. |
הִנֵּה שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה חָלְפוּ עַבְרוּ מֵעֵת עֲלִיָּתָהּ עַל כֵּס הַמְלוּכָה, בְּיַחַד עִם כׇל אֶזְרְחֵּי בְּרִיטַנְיָה אֲנַחְנוּ מִתְפַּלְלִים מֵּעֹמֶק הַלֵּב שֶׁתִּזְכֶּה מַלְכָּתֵנוּ הָדְגוּלָה עוֹד לְשָׁנִים רַבּוֹת שֶׁל מֶמְשָׁלָה פּוֹרִיָּה וּמְבֹרֶכֶת שֶׁתְּהֵא לָהּ וּלְעַמָהּ לְשֵׁם וּלְתִפְאֶרֶת וְלִתְהִלָּה. |
Seventy years have passed since Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne. Together with all our fellow citizens, we fervently pray that she be granted many more years of blessing so that she may continue to bring honour and glory to the Crown and to all her people. |
אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָׁמַיִם, בָּרֵךְ אֶת הַמַּלְכָּה הַנֶּהֱדֶרֶת, הָאֲצֵל מִשְּׁפִעַת טוּבְךָ עַל יוֹרֵשׁ הָעֶצֶר. כֻּלָם אוֹמְרִים כָּבוֹד וּבְאַלְפֵי בְּרָכוֹת יִהְיוּ בְּרוּכִים עִם כׇל בֵּית הַמְּלוּכָה. הַאֲרֵךְ יְמֵּיהֶם בְּטוֹב וּשְׁנוֹתֵּיהֶם בַּנְּעִימִים. תֵּן בְּלֵּב מַנְהִיגֵּי הַמְדִינָה וְיוֹעֲצֶיהָ רוּחַ חׇכְמָה וּבִינָה לַנְחוֹתֵּינוּ בִּנְתִיבוֹת אַחֲוָה וְאַחְדוּת וְחֵּרוּת. חַדֵּשׁ רוּחַ נָכוֹן בְּקֶרֶב הָעַמִים וְיוֹפִיעַ אוֹר צֶדֶק עוֹלָמִים. קָרֵב יוֹם הִגָּלוֹת מַלְכוּתְךָ עַל כׇּל יוֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ. |
Heavenly Father, may You continue to bestow Your blessings upon Her Majesty the Queen, the Prince of Wales and all the Royal Family and prolong their years in health and strength. Grant wisdom and understanding to the leaders and counsellors of the realm so that they and we may walk together in the paths of unity, freedom and harmony and may a new spirit inspire the nations of the world so that we may live together in righteousness and peace. |
בִּשְׁנַת זִכָּרוֹן וְהִתְרוֹמְמוּת זוֹ אָנוּ מְלֵאִים רַחֲשֵׁי אַהֲדָה וְהַכָּרַת טוֹבָה וּמִתְפַּלְּלִים וּמְקַוִּים לְשֶׁפַע וְלִשְׁלוֹם בְּרִיטַנְיָה, לִגְאוּלַת יִשְׂרָאֵל הַשְּׁלֵמָה וְלִפְדוּת הָאֱנוֹשׁוּת כֻּלָם |
In this year of joyful remembrance and celebration, we express our deepest sentiments of loyalty, esteem and gratitude. We pray for the peace and prosperity of Britain and the Commonwealth, for the well-being of the House of Israel and for the redemption of all mankind under the sovereignty of God. |
בִּמְהֵרָה וּבִזְמַן קָרוֹב. אָמֵן. |
May this, our prayer, be Your will speedily in our days, Amen. |

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.
