מִי שֶׁבֵּרַךְ אֲבוֹתֵֽינוּ אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיַעֲקֹב, שָׂרָה רִבְקָה רָחֵל וְלֵאָה, הוּא יְבָרֵך אֶת [names of veterans present וְאֶת] כׇּל־אֵלוּ שֶׁלָחֲמוּ בַּצָּבָא בְּעָד אַרְצֵינוּ, אַרְצוֹת הַבְּרִית, בְּכׇל זְמָן וַעֵת, בְּכׇל מָקוֹם. בָּרֵךְ אֶת כׇּל חַיָּלֵֽינוּ שֶׁיִּצְלְחוּ בְּכׇל מַעֲשֵׂי יְדֵיהֶם לְטוֹבָה, לְהַחֲזִיקָם וּלְהַחֲיוֹתָם. |
May He who blessed our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah, bless [names of veterans present, and] all those who have fought in the military on behalf of our country, the United States of America, in every time and era, in every place. Bless all of our soldiers that they should be successful, for good, in all of their endeavors; strengthen them and invigorate them. |
יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶֽיךָ, ה׳ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵֽינוּ, שֶׁתְּהִי אַרְצֵֽנוּ בְּרָכָה לְכׇל יוֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל, וְתִשְׁרָה בֵּינֵינוּ רֵעוּת וְחֵרוּת, וְהַנְחִלֵנוּ שָׁלוֹם וְאֶמֶת לְקָיֵּם מָה שֶׁכָּתוּב עַל־יָד נְבִיאֶֽךָ: ”לֹא יִשָׁא גוֹי אֶל־גוֹי חֶרֶב, וְלֹא יִלְמְדוּ עוֹד מִלְחָמָה,“ (ישעיה ב:ד, מיכה ד:ג) וְנֹאמָר: אָמֵן. |
May it be Your will, YHVH our God and God of our ancestors, that our land should be a blessing to all the inhabitants of the world. Immerse us in friendship and freedom, and foster among us true peace, that we might bring about the words written by the hand of Your prophet: “Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.”[1] Isaiah 2:4 and Micah 4:3 And let us say: Amen. |

Reading [the Torah]
JOINT BASE BALAD, Iraq — Chaplain (Capt.) Sarah Schechter, 332nd Air Expeditionary Wing rabbi, describes the newly arrived Jewish Torah following a Torah dedication ceremony at Gilbert Memorial Chapel here March 21. A Torah is a big parchment leather scroll on which the Five Books of Moses are handwritten in Hebrew. For thousands of years, this is how Jews have maintained their law, teachings, religion and society.

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. If you like what you've found here, please help keep our project alive and online with your financial contribution.
