הרחמן הוא יחזיר לנו שלום בגבולינו: |
May the Merciful One restore peace within our borders! |
הרחמן הוא ישבור עול כיבוש מעל צווארינו והוא יוליכנו קוממיות בארצנו: |
May the Merciful One remove the yoke of occupation from upon our necks and walk us upright in our land. |
יהי רצון שלא יבש עמך ישראל בעולם הזה ולא יכלם לעולם הבא. |
May it be Your Will that Your People Israel never be embarrassed in this world nor find shame in the World to Come. |
דין אחד שפט בינינו ובין הגוים שלא ישאו חרב אלינו ולא נשא חרב אליהם. |
Let One Judge mediate between us and other nations, that they not lift sword against us and we not lift sword against them. |
השב בנינו לגבולינו בנחת וקבץ אחינו הנתונים בצרה לתוכה בשמחה. |
Calmly return our children to our borders and joyfully gather to them our brothers and sisters still afflicted by oppression. |
הרם דגל עלינו אהבה ותן אחווה בקרבינו ובין כל עם ועם וטהר ליבנו ושמר חרותינו. |
Raise over us a banner of love, grant us fellowship among ourselves and with all nations, purify our hearts and preserve our liberty. |
ואז ציון במשפט תפדה ושביה בצדקה וישכון ישראל לבטח ויתקע בשופר גדול ובאו האבדים בארץ אשור והנדחים בארץ מצרים והשתחוו לה׳ בהר הקדש בירושלים אמן סלה: |
Then Zion will be redeemed in justice, its repentant delivered by righteousness, and Israel will dwell securely. The great shofar will sound, the captives will come forth from Syria and the persecuted up from Egypt, and together they will serve the Lord on the Holy Mountain in Jerusalem. Amen Selah! |

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 "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

Texts with vowels are much more easier to use ;-)
I tried to add nikkud. In case you’ll find it helpful (and correct), you are free to use/add it:
יְהִי רָצוֹן שֶׁלֹּא יָבֵשׁ עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה וְלֹא יכלם לְעוֹלָם הַבָּא. דִּין אֶחָד שָׁפַט בֵּינֵינוּ וּבֵין הִגּוּיָם שֶׁלֹּא יִשְׂאוּ חָרֵב אֵלֵינוּ וְלֹא נַשָּׂא חָרֵב אֲלֵיהֶם. הַשָּׁב בָּנִינוּ לִגְבוּלֵנוּ בַּנַּחַת וְקִבֵּץ אָחִינוּ הַנְּתוּנִים בְּצָרָה לְתוֹכָהּ בַּשִּׂמְחָה. הָרָם דֶּגֶל עָלִינוּ אַהֲבָה וְתַן אֶחְוֶה בקרבינו וּבֵין כָּל עִם וְעִם וְטַהֵר לִבֵּנוּ וְשֶׁמַּר חֵרוּתֵנוּ.
וְאָז צִיּוּן בְּמִשְׁפָּט תִּפְדֶּה ושביה בַּצְּדָקָה וְיִשְׁכֹּן יִשְׂרָאֵל לַבֶּטַח וְיִתְקַע בְּשׁוֹפָר גָּדוֹל וּבָאוּ האבדים בְּאֶרֶץ אַשּׁוּר והנדחים בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לָהּ’ בָּהָר הֶקְדֵּשׁ בִּירוּשָׁלַיִם אמן סלה:
Thanks Chajm! I’ve added it to the text. The text still isn’t completely pointed but it’s a great improvement.
Per Ira’s request, we’ll review the niqqud first before adding above. (These sorts of improvements will be much more straightforward for contributors to make and process once our Open Siddur web application is complete.)
I don’t believe all the added nekudot are correct. They should not be added without further peer review.
Ira, would you like to take the lead on this? (If you need any help with text editors, Hebrew keyboard layouts, and Hebrew fonts supportive of niqqud, let me know your Operating System and I’ll make some recommendations.)
Honestly, if this was an enhancement and an undertaking I had preferred, I would have incorporated nekudot in my submissiom from the beginning.
Please consider it as niqqud are still useful for folk who are not fluent in reading modern Hebrew when they read prayers and liturgy in Hebrew.
