El, merciful and compassionate, helper in times of trouble, very near. When we suffer you are readily found. We come now to bless and sanctify the month of Adar. You did wonders for your holy people through Mordekhai the Yehudi and Esther the Queen in this month when the wicked Haman arose to destroy, to slay, and to exterminate both old and young in your nation, Yisra’el, the seed of Avraham. In your great mercy you only frightened but did not punish them. You sealed the edict with the seal of lime, and when the Jews repented you sent saviors, Mordekhai the Yehudi and Esther the Queen, that they nullified the edict. The wicked Haman and his children were hanged. So too, Master of the Cosmos, hear our pleas in the merit of Mordekhai and Esther. Bless this month for us for good, and place in the heart of the king and of their advisors the desire to always deal kindly with us, through your mercy. (May Haman’s students have Haman’s downfall. Amen.)

To the best of my ability, this is a faithful transcription of the תְּחִנָה לְשַׁבָּת מְבָרְכִים רֹאשׁ חוֺדֶשׁ אַדָר (“Tkhine for Shabbat Mevorkhim Rosh Ḥodesh Adar [II]”) which appeared in תחנות מקרא קודש (Teḥinot Miqra Ḳodesh, Widow and Brothers Romm, Vilna 1877) before its adaptation in Shas Tkhine Ḥadashe, the source from which this translation was made. English translation adapted slightly from Techinas: A Voice from the Heart “As Only A Woman Can Pray” by Rivka Zakutinsky (Aura Press, 1992). –A.N. Varady

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