הָאֵל הָעוֹנֶה בְּעֵת צָרָה וּמוֹשִׁיעַ, הָרֹפֵא לִשְׁבוּרֵי לֵב וּמְחַבֵּשׁ לְעַצְּבוֹתָם (תהלים קמז:ג), שֶׁחָלַק מֵחָכְמָתוֹ לְבָשָׂר וָדָם אֲשֶׁר הֵבִיאוּ לִיצִירַת חִסּוּן זֶה.	El who answers in times of distress and saves, “Healer of broken hearts who binds their wounds” (Psalm 147:3), who shares divine wisdom with flesh and blood that has resulted in the creation of this vaccine:
יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶיךָ, שֶׁבְּכֹחַ מַעֲשֵׂי אֱנוֹשׁ בְּעֶזְרַת הַחוֹנֵן לְאָדָם דַּעַת וּמְלַמֵּד לֶאֱנוֹשׁ בִּינָה, מַדָּע וְהַשְׂכֵּל אֶזְכֶּה לִבְרִיאוּת וְחֹסֶן וִיקֻיַּם בָּנוּ הַכָּתוּב ”וַהֲסִרֹתִי מַחֲלָה מִקִּרְבֶּךָ“ (שמות כג:כה) ”כִּי אֲנִי ה׳ רֹפְאֶךָ“ (שמות טו:כו). ”יוֹדוּ לַה׳ חַסְדּוֹ וְנִפְלְאוֹתָיו לִבְנֵי אָדָם“. (תהלים קז:ח)	May it be your will that through the power of this human effort aided by God who graciously grants humans knowledge and teaches mortals understanding, science and discernment that I merit health and resilience so that these verses may be fulfilled for us: “I have removed illness from your midst” (Exodus 23:25) “for I, YHVH, are your healer” (Exodus 15:26). “Let them praise YHVH for thon’s kindness and wondrous deeds for humanity” (Psalms 107:8).
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה, רוֹפֵא כׇל בָּשָׂר וּמַפְלִיא לַעֲשׂוֹת.	Blessed are you who brings healing to all flesh and makes wondrous works.

This prayer, for those receiving vaccinations, was offered by the Masorti Movement in Israel and the Knesset haRabanim b’Yisrael. It was shared on 27 December 2020 via the Open Siddur Project Discussion group on Facebook. The English translation was made by Shoshana Michael Zucker with editing by Aharon Varady.

Knesset haRabanim b'Yisrael

The Knesset haRabanim b'Yisrael (Rabbinical Assembly in Israel) is the central body of Masorti-affiliated rabbis in the State of Israel. It is closely associated with the Masorti Movement for Conservative Judaism in Israel, and the international Rabbinical Assembly.

Masorti Movement in Israel

HaTenu'ah haMasortit (התנועה המסורתית, the Masorti Movement in Israel) creates opportunities for all Jews to live Jewish lives in Israel unhindered, and on their own terms. It is a religious movement based on values of inclusion combined with traditional practice and Halakha (Jewish Law). Masorti represents a “third” way. Not secular Judaism. Not ultra-Orthodoxy. But a Jewish life that integrates secular beliefs. Halakhah with inclusion and egalitarianism. Tradition that recognizes the realities of today’s world. The Masorti Movement is committed to a pluralistic, egalitarian, and democratic vision of Zionism. Masorti engages tens of thousands of Israelis each year, young and old, native born as well as olim from around the globe.

Shoshana Michael Zucker (translation)

Shoshana Michael Zucker was first fascinated by the boundaries and history of Jewish liturgy as a teenager in NFTY in the early 1970s, the waning days of the Union Prayer Book. Since then, she has moved to Israel, raised a family and launched them into adulthood, while praying from varied siddurim with countless notes in the margin and extra notes stuck between the pages. A translator and editor by profession, she would rather study and teach Torah.

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 "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
