עַל נֵס תְּחִיָּתֵנוּ וּבִנְיַן חַיֵּינוּ הַמְחֻדָּשׁ בְּמוֹלַדְתֵּנוּ, בֵּית חַיֵּינוּ, אַחֲרֵי אַלְפֵי שְׁנוֹת גָּלוּת;
עַל תַּעֲצוּמוֹת נֶפֶשׁ שֶׁל עַם שֶׁקָּם מִתְּהוֹמוֹת וְהֶעְפִּיל אֶל תְּקוּמָה וְעַצְמָאוּת, הֲגָנָה וּבִנְיָן;
עַל גְּבוּרַת לוֹחֲמִים שֶׁחֵרְפוּ נַפְשָׁם וְצִוּוּ חַיִּים, פְּרִיחָה וִיצִירָה;
עַל קִבּוּץ גָּלוּיוֹת מֵאַרְבַּע כַּנְפוֹת הָאָרֶץ וְעַל עֹשֶׁר הָעֵדוֹת וְהַשְּׁבָטִים, הָאֱמוּנוֹת וְהַדֵּעוֹת, הַמָּסוֹרוֹת וְהַתְּפִלּוֹת;
עַל עֹז הָרוּחַ לְהַצְהִיר בִּפְנֵי עַם וְעוֹלָם שֶׁנַּשְׁתִּית חַיֵּינוּ עַל יְסוֹדוֹת הַחֵרוּת הַצֶּדֶק וְהַשָּׁלוֹם, לְאוֹר חֲזוֹנָם שֶׁל נְבִיאֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל;
עַל הָאֱמוּנָה וְהַתִּקְוָה, עַל הַשְּׁאִיפָה לְשָׁלוֹם בֵּין בְּנֵי שָׂרָה לִבְנֵי הָגָר, וְעַל כִּסּוּפֵי הַגְּאֻלָּה הַמְּפַעֲמִים בָּנוּ וּמְכוֹנְנִים מִצְעָדֵנוּ.

The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libré 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.
