Vor dem Einsegnen des Neumondes.[1] sieh Anhang. |
Before the Blessing of the New Moon. |
Dich allmächtiger Gott, der du deine milde Hand öffnest, und jedes lebende Wesen mit Wohlwollen sättigest, dich bete ich an! Verleihe auch mir, den meinigen und allen, die sich jetzt mit uns zum Gebet vereinigt haben, unsere Bedürfnisse in Frieden und auf eine ehrenvolle Art. Erhöre unser Flehen und segne unser Werk. Schenke uns Ruhe und Frieden, und behüte uns vor unglücklichen Ereignissen. Laß mich nicht bethört und beherrscht werden von bösen Begierden, sondern erhalte meine Seele rein zu deinem Dienste. Beschütze mich und alle meine Mitmenschen vor Hungersnoth, vor Feuer⸗ und Wasserschaden und andern bösen Begegnissen. |
Almighty God, you who open your gentle hand, and satisfy every living being with benevolence, I worship you! Grant also — to me, to mine, and to all who have now joined with us in prayer — our necessities in peace and in an honorable way. Hear our supplications and bless our work. Give us rest and peace, and guard us from unfortunate events. Do not let me be beguiled and dominated by evil desires, but keep my soul pure for your service. Protect me and all my fellow men from famine, from fire and water damage and other evil encounters. |
Erhöre mich, O Gott, wenn ich zu dir flehe, stehe in der Noth mir bei! Möge der fromme Wandel meiner Vorältern, mögen die Eigenschaften deines göttlichen Wesens mir Fürsprecher vor deinem Throne sein. Laß mich die Tage meines Lebens in Gottesfurcht, Glück und Frieden verleben. Erleuchte mich und die Meinigen (meine Kinder) in deinen heiligen Lehren. Gieb, daß wir Wohlwollen finden in den Augen aller Menschen, und laß unsere Hoffnungen erfüllt werden! |
Hear me, O God, when I beseech thee; stand by me in my distress! May the pious conduct of my forefathers, may the attributes of your divine being be my intercessor before your throne. Let me live out the days of my life in the fear of God, in happiness and in peace. Enlighten me and mine (my children) in your holy teachings. Grant that we may find favor in the eyes of all men, and let our hopes be fulfilled! |
Erhörer des Gebets, denke meiner (meines Mannes und meiner Hausgenossen) heute beim Beginn eines neuen Monats in deiner Gnade. Und mögen dir wohlgefällig sein die Worte meines Mundes und die Gedanken meines Herzens, Ewiger, mein Hort und mein Erlöser, Amen. |
Hearer of prayer, remember me (my husband and my household) today at the beginning of a new month in your grace. And may the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be pleasing to you, Eternal One, my refuge and my Redeemer, Amen. |

- 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.

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.
