In 1852, this teḥinah was translated into English (with a short prayer added for children) by Miriam Wertheimer under the title “Prayer for a woman who is about to become a mother, after the benediction of the citron” in Devotional Exercises for the Use of Jewish Women on Public and Domestic Occasions (1852), pp. 52-54. . . .
