Lord of ages and destinies, before whose all-seeing eye the present, the past and the future lie unveiled; whose all-seeing eye encompasses all times, all kingdoms, all peoples and generations, as well as the least of all creatures! Your holy will is that we should celebrate today the feast of remembrance of the exodus of our ancestors from Egyptian slavery, and that we should enjoy the most blessed benefits, not only for the people of Israel, but through [Israel] for all people and eternity, and remember Your innumerable miracles. — Truly this has come to pass from the Lord, marvelous in our eyes; this day, the Lord has given it, let us celebrate it with joyful song.

Groß und mächtig, o Gott, waren deine Thaten, wodurch du den Unterdrücker eines ganzen Volkes zwangst, ihm die Menschenrechte, seine angeborne Freiheit, wieder zu geben, deine Allmacht zerschmetterte das Joch des Tirannen Pharao; und das Werk der Erlösung war vollendet. Jisrael war wieder eine freie, selbstständige Nation, Gott selbst ward ihr Anführer. Aber — kaum athmete es freier, kaum sah es fich der drückenden Gewalt enthoben, als durch Wuth, gekränkten Ehrgeiz und Mordlust entflammt, dieser Wüthrich dem Volke mit seinem ganzen Kriegsheer, und dem festen Vorsatze, dieses durch Sklavenjoch niedergebeugte und muthlose, ohne Wehr und Waffen sich befindende Haüflein, entweder unter seinen eisernen Scepter wieder zu zwingen, oder seine Blutdurst ganz an ihm zu sättigen. Schon glaubte er seines Sieges gewiß zu seyn, denn vortheilhaft war der Ort für ihn, wo er das Volk erreichte, am Schilfmeer nemlich, wo vorwärts der Tod im Wasser, und rückwärts das rächende Schwert des Feindes seiner harrte. Doch — in des Menschen Herz entstehen vielfältige Anschläge; des Ewigen Rathschluß allein hat Bestand; denn nicht so wie Pharao dachte, hat Gott beschlossen, ganz anders war&#8217;s von ihm im Buche des Schicksals verzeichnet. Gott schalt dem Schilfmeer — es versinkte. Durch Tiefen führte er trocknen Fußes sie, wie in der Wüste; befreiete sie von des Hassers Hand, rettete sie von Feindes Macht, Fluthen deckten ihre Widersacher, nicht einer, der entkam. — Wessen Mund ist mächtig, diese Wunder alle auszusprechen, wessen Herz sie sämmtlich zu fassen, und wessen Seele sie zu überdenken! dein, o Gott, ist die Macht, dein die Kraft, und dein die Herrlichkeit!

Great and mighty, O God, were your deeds, by which you forced the oppressor of a whole people to give them back their human rights, their inherent freedom; your omnipotence shattered the yoke of the tyrant Pharaoh; and the work of redemption was completed. Israel was again a free, independent nation, God Himself became its leader. But — hardly did it breathe more freely, hardly did it see itself relieved of the oppressive violence, when, inflamed by rage, aggrieved ambition and lust for murder, this rageful man presented himself to the people with his entire army of war, and the firm resolution to either force this little hapless nation, bowed down by the yoke of slavery and without defense and weapons, under his iron scepter again, or to satisfy his thirst for blood completely on it. He already believed that he was certain of victory, for the place where he reached the people was advantageous for him, namely at the Reed Sea, where death awaited him in the water ahead and the avenging sword of the enemy behind. But in the heart of man there are manifold suggestions; only the eternal counsel endures; for God did not decide as Pharaoh thought, it was quite differently recorded by him in the book of fate. God scolded the Reed Sea — it sank. Through depths he led them dry-footed, as in the wasteland; freed them from the hand of the hater, saved them from the power of the enemy, floods covered their adversaries, not one escaped. — Whose mouth is mighty to utter all these wonders, whose heart to grasp them all, and whose soul to ponder them! yours, O God, is the power, yours the strength, and yours the glory!

Nicht bloß erinnern soll uns dieses Fest an das, was vor vielen Jahren unsern Vorältern widerfahren ist, und dann unserem Herzen unbenützt entschwinden. Nein! wir sollen die Vergangenheit zur Belehrung für die Gegenwart anwenden; wir sollen das Geschehene für unsre gegenwärtigen Zeiten, Lagen und Verhältnisse zu benützen suchen.

But not feelings alone, nor mere thanks in the mouth should awaken the memory of the great days of the past in us. This celebration should not merely remind us of what happened to our ancestors many years ago and then disappear from our hearts unused. No!

They should draw our attention to your divine qualities, which you then showed in their glorious splendor, and which you still use every day for our good.

Du allein bist der Weise, der Allmächtige und der Starke, dem nichts zu widerstehen im Stande ist.

Heiliger Herr der Himmelsheere! lenke unsere Herzen zu steter Treue und willigem Gehorsam gegen unsern allergnädigsten König Ludwig, deinen Gesalbten; denn du bist es, der Ihn über uns gesetzt hat; du hast Ihm Gewalt und Majestät verliehen.

Der Geist der Gerechtigkeit und Klugheit leite Ihn, wenn Er Gesetze gibt, wenn Er Urtheile fällt, wenn Er belohnt oder straft. Laß Ihm Sein Schwert nur zum Schutze Seiner Völker, zur Vertheidigung Seiner Rechte und zur Sicherung des Friedens führen. Er fühle stets, daß du Sein Vorbild bist, du, der du lieber segnest als strafst. Laß Ihm immer gern die Stimme der Wahrheit hören, und fern bleibe der Schmeichler von Ihm, der „Gerecht und Beharrlich“ ist. Erleuchte Ihn bei Seiner Wahl der Minister, Räthe, Richter und anderer Beamten. Umgib Ihn mit Männern von Einsicht, Menschenliebe, Rechtschaffenheit und Muth, damit sie sich nicht scheuen vor Seinen Thron zu bringen, was Seinen Unterthanen nöthig und nützlich ist. Laß Ihm, Vater der Armen, Retter der leidenden Unschuld, das Glück Seiner Völker, das Muster guter Fürsten, und dein Bild auf Erden seyn. Er genieße in dem frohen Anblick eines blühenden Staates, und unter den Segenswünschen der Unterthanen, die Früchte Seiner weisen Regierung; und das Bewußtseyn, Menschen beglückt zu haben, sey einstweilen Sein Lohn, bis du Ihm nach einem langen Leben, ununterbrochener Gesundheit, ungestörtem Glücke, ungetrübter Freude an seiner sämmtlichen königlichen Familie, einst zur Krone der Unsterblichkeit rufen wirst! <em>Amen</em>.

Allmächtiger! es gehört zu deiner göttlichen Vorsehung, daß Handel und Wandel die Glieder der menschlichen Gesellschaft näher verbinde, und so ist auch der Handelsstand den du zu meiner Bestimmung mir angewiesen hast, wie jeder andere von deiner Allmeisheit für den Menschen als nothwendig und nützlich anerkannt worden, und jeder Mensch, der dieses Geschäft ehrlich und redlich betreibt, kann deines Beistandes und deiner Seligkeit versichert seyn. — Doch wird zu diesem Gerwerbe besonders eine unerschütterliche Rechtschaffenheit erfordert, wenn man den vielen Versuchungen entgehen will, denen der Handelsstand ausgesetzt ist. Der Kaufmann, sagt einer deiner heiligen Propheten, hat die Trugwage in seine Hand, und sehnt nach ungerechtem Gute sich. Auch lehrt die traurige Erfahrung es, daß viele aus diesem Stande, aus Geldbegierde die Kaüfer durch zu hohe Preise und Verfälschung der Waaren übervortheilen, und dem übertriebenen Gewinnste ihre Redlichkeit opfern.

Almighty, it is part of your divine providence that trade and commerce bring the members of human society closer together, and so the trade that you have assigned to me for my purpose, like every other, has been recognized by your omnipotence as necessary and useful for man, and every man who conducts this business honestly and honestly can be assured of your support and your bliss. — But for this trade an unshakable integrity is especially required, if one wants to escape the many temptations to which the merchant class is exposed. The merchant, says one of your holy prophets, has the deceitfulness in his hand, and longs for unjust good.<span class="footnote_referrer"><a role="button" tabindex="0" onclick="footnote_moveToReference_41935_4('footnote_plugin_reference_41935_4_1');" onkeypress="footnote_moveToReference_41935_4('footnote_plugin_reference_41935_4_1');" ><sup id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_41935_4_1" class="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text">[1]</sup></a><span id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_41935_4_1" class="footnote_tooltip"> Cf. Hosea 12:8. The correct verse citation seems to be mangled in both the 1815 and 1843 editions. (It is absent in the 1839 edition.) I&#8217;ll speculate that this prayer of a tradeswoman had a different valence for its male editors in the early 19th century. Incorrectly cited is Hosea 2:6 — a verse referencing harlotry rather than defrauiding merchants.&nbsp;</span></span><script type="text/javascript"> jQuery('#footnote_plugin_tooltip_41935_4_1').tooltip({ tip: '#footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_41935_4_1', tipClass: 'footnote_tooltip', effect: 'fade', predelay: 0, fadeInSpeed: 200, delay: 400, fadeOutSpeed: 200, position: 'center right', relative: true, offset: [0, 0], });</script> Sad experience also teaches that many of this class, out of greed for money, overcharge the merchants by too high prices and adulteration of the goods, and sacrifice their honesty to the exaggerated profit.

Da ich nun bei meinem Nahrungsstande so vielen Gefahren ausgefetzt bin, so rufe ich dich, o Gott! um deinen Beistand an, damit ich nicht von niedriger Gewinnfucht verblendet, mich durch Betrug und andere niedrige und ungerechte Mittel zu bereichern suche, und dich, mein Wohlthäter! und mein Gewissen darüber vergesse: denn der Betrüger, sagt der weise Salomo, genießt seines Betruges nicht, Fleiß hingegen ist ein Schatz des weisen Mannes.

Mein Wort soll ihm statt des Schwurs, und meine Redlichkeit statt der Betheuerung gelten. Nie will ich mir die Einfalt und Unerfahrenheit der Kaüfer, durch Überbietung des Preises oder Darreichung schlechter Waare zu Nutzen machen; nie beim Einkauf der Armuth, der bedrängten Lage des Handwerkers oder sonstigen Verfaüfers mich bedienen, um ihnen ihre Feilschaft zu einem sehr niedrigen Preis abzudringen, und mit ihrem Schaden mich zu bereichern.

I will therefore rely on your assistance, use the greatest diligence in my business, observe the most excellent order; but I will never degrade myself to become a cheat to my neighbor by unjust measure and weight, by adulteration of goods; I will never resort to usurious gain; I will never adopt the shameful habit of trying to convince the buyer by swearing, the oath may be true or false, that I cannot give the goods otherwise than for the price determined for him. My word shall apply to him instead of an oath, and my honesty instead of a betrayal. I will never take advantage of the simplicity and inexperience of the merchants by overbidding the price or offering bad goods; I will never make use of the poor, the hard-pressed situation of the craftsman or other merchant in order to wrest their bargain at a very low price from them, and to enrich myself at their expense.

<p>&#8220;Gebet einer Handelsfrau (Prayer for a merchant woman)&#8221; was first published in Pereẓ (Peter) Beer&#8217;s <em><a href="/?p=41918">Gebetbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer mosaischer Religion</a></em> (1815), as teḥinah №40 on p. 129-132 where it was rendered in Judeo-German. The German rendering transcribed above follows teḥinah №40 in Henry Frank&#8217;s 1839 edition on p. 110-112. A variation can also be found in the Beer&#8217;s 1843 edition as teḥinah №41 on p. 110-112.</p>
<p>We welcome corrections and improvements. The transcription of the German from Latin script in Fraktur type provided machine-readable text for a machine translation by <a href="https://www.deepl.com/en/translator">DeepL</a>, which we then edited for accuracy and clarity. &#8211;Aharon Varady</p>

Wo soll ich Worte hernehmen, gütigster, zärtlichster Vater! deine Gnade und Barmherzigkeit zu preisen, die du mich in so vollem Maße hast erfahren lassen. Doch du siehest nicht auf Worte, und wie voll mein Herz mit Dankbarkeit gegen dich ist, das ist dir, vor dem die Gedanken des Menschen offenbar sind, bekannt; — wahrlich! du hast, mehr an mir gethan, als ich zu wünschen und zu hoffen wagen konnte. O lobe den Herrn meine Seele, was er dir Gutes gethan hat! ihn der dich von so vielerlei Übeln befreiete, der dein Leben vom Tode errettete, der dich beschenkte mit Gnade und Barmherzigkeit. Nie, nie will ich vergessen, was du in diesen bedenklichen Umständen meines Gebärens an mir gethan; täglich will ich an das Gute gedenken, womit du mich erfreuet hast; unaufhörlich soll mein Herz des Dankes, und mein Mund des Lobes deiner Allmacht und Allgüte voll seyn. Und wodurch könnte ich dir meinen Dank besser bezeugen, als wenn ich deinen heiligen Geboten nachlebe, und meine Pflichten als Mensch, als Gattin und als Mutter erfülle. Ja, diesen Pflichten soll mein Leben ganz gewidmet seyn, nichts soll mich davon abhalten.

Where shall I find words, most gracious, most tender father, to praise your grace and mercy, which you have let me experience in such a full measure. But you do not look at words, and how full my heart is with gratitude to you, that is known to you, before whom the thoughts of man are revealed; — truly! you have done more for me than I could wish and dare to hope. O praise the Lord my soul, what he has done for you! he who delivered you from so many evils, who saved your life from death, who bestowed upon you grace and mercy. Never, never will I forget what you have done for me in these precarious circumstances of my birth; daily I will remember the good things you have done for me; continually my heart will be full of thanksgiving and my mouth of praise for your omnipotence and all-goodness. And how could I better testify to my gratitude to you than by living up to your holy commandments and fulfilling my duties as a human being, as a wife and as a mother. Yes, my life shall be completely dedicated to these duties, nothing shall keep me from it.

Auch mein liebes neugebornes Kind empfehle ich in deinen göttlichen Schutz. Laß es zum guten, zum nützlichen und rechtschaffnen Menschen heranwachsen, laß an Körper und Geist es stets gesund seyn, erleuchte es mit deinem heiligen Geiste, damit es von deinen heiligen Geboten nie abweiche, und dadurch dieß und jenseits des Lebens glückselig werde. — Und endlich, erhalte, allgütiger Vater! mir meinen zärtlich geliebten Gatten, und meinen Kindern ihren treuen Vater, lange noch am Leben und Gesundheit. Stehe ihm bei, und erleichtere ihm die Last seiner Gatten⸗ und Vatersorgen.

I also entrust my dear newborn child to your divine protection. Let it grow up to be a good, useful and righteous human being, let it always be healthy in body and mind, enlighten it with your holy spirit, so that it never deviates from your holy commandments and thereby becomes blissful in this life and beyond. — And finally, all-good Father, keep my beloved husband, my children&#8217;s faithful father, alive and healthy for a long time. Stand by him, and lighten the burden of his worries as a husband and father.

Wenn ich von der jetzt erreichten Höhe meines Daseyns auf die durchgelaufene Bahn, auf die verschiedenen Lagen und den ganzen Zusammenhang meines Lebens zurück sehe, so zeigt sich deine Allgüte mir im hellsten Lichte. Wie hast du Allgütiger! mich so sanft, so väterlich geleitet; aus wie viel Gefahren, die mir bekannt wurden, und um so mehr, die mir unbekannt blieben, mich gerettet! wie viel Gutes, das ich kaum erwarten durfte, kaum mir zu wünschen getrauete, hast du mir zu Theil werden lassen! — Für dieses alles, mein Gott und mein Vater! ist meine ganze Seele deines Lobes, mein ganzes Herz deines Dankes voll. Aber womit kann ich ihn aüßern, diesen heißesten, diesen innigsten Dank? — mit Worten? dieß ist ein leerer Schall. Mit Thaten? was kann ich schwaches Geschöpf für dich, der du Welten ohne Zahl in einem Augenblick aus ihrem Nichts hervorrufen, und in einem andern wieder dahin versenken kannst? was kann ich für dich thun, der du, erhaben über alle Bedürfnisse, dir selbst genug bist? —Aber du bist ein Vater aller Menschen, alle sind sie deine Kinder. Ich will durch Erfüllung meiner Pflichten ihr Wohl nach meinen Kräften befördern, und dieß ist, o Allgütiger! sicher der angenehmste Dienst, welchen der Mensch dir zu leisten im Stande ist. Ich will es, ich, gelobe es dir, Allwissender! in vollem Ernste an diesem mir feierlichen Tage, der an die Wohlthaten alle, die du durch so viele Jahre mir zukommen läßt, mich so kräftig erinnert.

When, from the height of my existence that I have now reached, I look back over the path I have travelled through the various situations and the entire context of my life, your all-goodness reveals itself to me in the brightest light. How you have guided me so gently, so fatherly; how many dangers, which became known to me, and all the more, which remained unknown to me, you have saved me from; how many good things, which I could hardly expect, hardly dared to wish for, you have bestowed upon me! — For all this, my God and my Father, my whole soul is full of your praise, my whole heart of your thanks. But how can I express this most ardent, this most heartfelt gratitude? — With words? these are vacuous sounds. With deeds? What can I, weak creature, do for you, who can call forth worlds without number from their nothingness in one moment and sink them there again in another? what can I do for you, who, exalted above all needs, are enough for yourself? — But you are a father of all people, they are all your children. By fulfilling my duties, I want to promote their welfare to the best of my ability, and this, O kind one, is surely the most pleasant service that man is capable of rendering you. I will, I vow to you, All-knowing, in all earnestness on this solemn day, which reminds me so powerfully of all the benefits you have bestowed on me through so many years.

Was mir bevorstehet, weiß ich nicht, und kann darüber keine weitere Betrachtung austellen, als die einzige, welche mir auch die befriedigendste ist: daß nemlich es das Werk deiner höchsten; Weisheit, deiner Vatergüte seyn wird; und bin ich unter der Fürsorge meines gütigen Vaters, so rufe ich mit David aus: „und wall ich auch im Todes⸗Schattenthale, so wall ich ohne Furcht, denn du bist mit mir.“ Nach der gewöhnlichen Ordnung, welche deine Weisheit in Die Natur gelegt hat, ist es freilich nicht anders zu erwarten, als daß mit der Zunahme an Fahren, auch die Unannehmlichkeiten, die Beschwerlichkeiten, die Leiden des Alters zunehmen werden. — Ich will mich darauf vorbereiten, sie sollen mir nicht unerwartet kommen. Ich will ihnen ruhig und unerschüttert entgegen sehen, und mit Job sagen: „habe ich von Gott so viel Gutes empfangen, wie sollte ich nicht auch das Böse annehmen?” ich sehe es im Voraus, meine körperliche Schwäche wird mit den Jahren zunehmen! diese Hülle aus Staub und Erde, wird vielleicht noch schmerzlich zerstört werden, und so allmählig sich ihrer Auflösung nähern. — Halte ich aber diese kurze Zeit der Leiden, gegen die lange genossene Zeit der Gesundheit, des Vergnügens, und gegen die darauf folgenden ewigen Zeiten der ununterbrochenen himmlischen Freuden, so kann ich über die bald vorübergehende Zeit der Leiden mich leicht beruhigen; sie ist blos der enge Eingang zu einem edlern Leben, zur unaufhörlichen Glückseligkeit. Dies ist mein kräftigster Trost, dies meine stärkste Zuversicht, dein Mund, o Gott! verkündet mir dieses, deine göttlichen Eigenschaften verbürgen mir es, und — ich bin ruhig und sicher, jetzt und in Ewigkeit! <em>Amen</em>.

What is in store for me, I do not know, and can make no other observation about it than the only one which is also the most satisfactory to me: namely, that it will be the work of your highest wisdom [and] your fatherly kindness; and if I am under the care of my kind father, then I exclaim with David: &#8220;and if I also walk in the Valley of Death, then I walk without fear, for you are with me&#8221; <span class="citation">(Psalms 23:4)</span>. According to the standard rules that your wisdom has set in Nature, it is to be expected, of course, that with the increase of travel, [that] the inconveniences, the troubles, the sufferings of old age will also increase. — I want to prepare myself for them, [that] they should not come to me unexpectedly. I will face them calmly and unshakenly, and say with Job: &#8220;If I have received so much good from God, how should I not also accept the evil?&#8221; <span class="citation">(Job 2:10)</span> I see it in advance, [that] my physical weakness will increase with the years! This shell of dust and earth will perhaps still be painfully destroyed, and thus gradually approach its dissolution. — But if I weigh this short time of suffering against the long enjoyed time of health, of pleasure, and against the following eternal times of uninterrupted heavenly joys, I can easily relax about the quick passing time of suffering; it is only the narrow entrance to a nobler life, to unceasing bliss. This is my strongest consolation, this is my strongest assurance, your mouth, O God! proclaims this to me, your divine attributes vouch for it, and — I am calm and secure, now and forever! <em>Amen</em>.

Immer rückt sie näher heran, die wichtige, die entscheidende Stunde, da ich nach der von dir, o allweiser und allgütiger Gott, getroffenen Einrichtung meiner Natur, meiner Leibesfrucht soll entbunden werden! Allwissender, du kennst meine Schwäche, und du wirst als Vater mir, es verzeihen, daß ich dieser Stunde ängstlich entgegen sehe! Ob mein Gebären leicht, ob es schwer seyn wird, ist nur deiner Allwissenheit bekannt; doch ich will im Voraus mich darüber nicht bekümmern, und dadurch der Stärke des Geistes, der Kräfte des Körpers, und des getrosten Muthes mich nicht berauben; die mir in der Stunde meiner Entbindung so nöthig sind; ich will mit stiller Gelassenheit, im Vertrauen auf deinen mächtigen Beistand, auf deine Hülfe und auf deinen Trost ihn erwarten.

It is getting closer and closer, the important, the decisive hour, when I shall be delivered from my nature, from my womb, according to the arrangement made by you, O all-wise and all-good God! All-knowing, you know my weakness, and you, as my father, will forgive me for anxiously looking forward to this hour! Whether my childbirth will be easy or difficult is known only to your omniscience; but I do not want to worry about it in advance, and thereby not deprive myself of the strength of spirit, the powers of the body, and the confident courage, which are so necessary to me in the hour of my delivery; I will await it with calm composure, trusting in your mighty assistance, in your help and in your comfort.

Du sprachst, und die Hülfe kam; du wolltest, und Rettung war da. Dir also, gütigster Vater, dir übergebe ich jetzt mein Schicksal, magst du über mich bestimmt haben, was es immer sey, es kann nicht anders als zu meinem Besten seyn. Voll kindlicher Ergebung in deinen Willen, o Gott, will ich der frohen Hoffnung Raum in meinem Herzen geben, daß du in meiner Entbindung mir und meiner Leibes⸗Frucht, deine Hülfe nicht versagen wirst; daß du uns beiden diese Stunde leicht ohne allzugroße Schmerzen, ohne Schaden wirst überstehen lassen; daß du mich mit einem gesunden, wohlgestalteten Kinde erfreuen wirst. Zu dir, mein Vater! ist meine, Zuversicht, daß du auch Dießmal meine Angst in frohe Verwunderung, meine Traurigkeit in Freude verwandeln wirst. Belebe du selbst, o Gott! diese frohe Hoffnung in mir, und stärke durch deinen göttlichen Geist mich in diesem Vertrauen; darum rufe ich dich aus dem Innern meiner Seele an, dich, der du mein Gott und mein Vater, mein Schutz und mein Erretter bist!

Almighty, you have helped so many difficult births through your divine assistance, I myself have experienced so many samples of your omnipotence and omnibenevolence in my life; your power, your wisdom, has also supported me so often and delivered me from dangers from which no human power, no human art and science was able to save. You spoke, and help came; you wanted, and salvation was there. So, most gracious father, to you I now hand over my fate; you may have determined it for me, whatever it may be, it cannot be other than for my good. Full of childlike surrender to your will, O God, I want to give room in my heart to the joyful hope that you will not deny your help to me and my womb in my delivery; that you will let us both easily survive this hour without too much pain, without harm; that you will make me happy with a healthy, well-shaped child. To you, my Father, is my confidence that you will also this time turn my fear into joyful wonder, my sadness into gladness. You yourself, O God, revive this joyful hope in me, and strengthen me in this trust through your divine Spirit; therefore I call upon you from the depths of my soul, you who are my God and my Father, my protector and my savior! Amen.

Gott der Liebe und der Erbarmung: verschmähe die Thränen deiner Magd nicht, und öffne dein Ohr ihren Seufzern. Wohin kann ich meine Zuflucht nehmen, wem darf ich meine Noth klagen, vor wem meinen Schmerz und Kummer so offenherzig ausschütten, als vor dir, mein Vater im Himmel? Du siehest was ich leide, dir ist&#8217;s bekannt, welches harte Loos mich getroffen, welche Bürde mich niederdrückt! — Ich bekenne es mit Reue und Demuth. daß ich durch meine Sünden eine schwehre Strafe verschuldet habe. Ich erkenne es als Gnade, wenn du auf dieser Welt dafür mich büßen läßt, um einst rein und gelaütert vor dir zu erscheinen. Nur bitte ich um deinen mächtigen Beistand, daß ich unter diesem Kummer nicht erliege, nicht an deiner Gnade verzweifle. Ich rufe dich um die Gabe der Geduld und Sanftmuth an, daß ich durch Ausbrüche der Ungeduld, durch eine mürrische Gemüthsstimmung, diese Bürde mir nicht noch mehr erschwere! Ich flehe dich um Weisheit und Ergebenheit, daß ich in mein Schicksal, so hart es auch ist, mich füge, deinen Wink zur Besserung nicht außer Acht laße, und durch Murren wider deine Schickung, durch Zweifel an deine Hülfe, meine Sünden nicht vervielfältige.

God of love and mercy: do not spurn the tears of your handmaid, and open your ear to her sighs. Where can I take refuge, to whom may I lament my distress, before whom may I pour out my pain and sorrow so openly, than before you, my Father in heaven? You see what I suffer, you know what hard fate has befallen me, what burden weighs me down! — I confess with remorse and humility that I have incurred a heavy punishment through my sins. I recognize it as mercy, if you let me atone for it in this world, in order to appear pure and blessed before you one day. I only ask for your mighty help that I do not succumb under this grief, that I do not despair of your grace. I call upon you for the gift of patience and gentleness, so that I do not make this burden even more difficult for myself through outbursts of impatience, through a sullen mood! I beseech you for wisdom and submission, that I may submit to my fate, no matter how hard as it is, that I not ignore your hint for improvement, and I do not multiply my sins by grumbling against your providence, by doubting your help.

<p>&#8220;Unglückliche Ehe (Unhappy Marriage)&#8221; was first published in Pereẓ (Peter) Beer&#8217;s <em><a href="/?p=41918">Gebetbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer mosaischer Religion</a></em> (1815), as teḥinah №39 on p. 127-129 where it was rendered in Judeo-German. The German rendering transcribed above follows teḥinah №39 in Henry Frank&#8217;s 1839 edition on p. 108-110. A variation can also be found in the Beer&#8217;s 1843 edition as teḥinah №40 on p. 107-109. We have labeled this prayer as problematic as submission in the circumstance of a dysfunctional relationship is unhealthy, terrible advice. In the event of an unhappy marriage, please seek appropriate marriage counseling and family therapy. You are not alone. Social services offered by your local Jewish Family Service agency may be able to help.</p>
<p>We welcome corrections and improvements. The transcription of the German from Latin script in Fraktur type provided machine-readable text for a machine translation by <a href="https://www.deepl.com/en/translator">DeepL</a>, which we then edited for accuracy and clarity. &#8211;Aharon Varady</p>

					<description><![CDATA[The first anthology of teḥinot published in Judeo-German rather than Yiddish.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The first anthology of teḥinot published in Western Judeo-German rather than Eastern Yiddish was compiled by the pioneering Jewish educator and maskil Pereẓ (Peter) Beer (1758-1838) in Prague, <em>Gebetbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer mosaischer Religion</em> (1815), printed in vaybertaytsh/mashket type. </p>
<p>A second, possibly unendorsed, edition under the same title was published posthumously in 1839 and printed in Fraktur (Latin script) with edits by Henry Frank in Sulzbach.<span class="footnote_referrer"><a role="button" tabindex="0" onclick="footnote_moveToReference_41918_10('footnote_plugin_reference_41918_10_1');" onkeypress="footnote_moveToReference_41918_10('footnote_plugin_reference_41918_10_1');" ><sup id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_41918_10_1" class="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text">[1]</sup></a><span id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_41918_10_1" class="footnote_tooltip"> &#8221;Auch suchte ich, so viel möglich, Wohlklang in dieselben zu bringen, und scheute weder Mühe noch Aufmerksämkeit, so daß sie gewiß alle ihre frühern Geschwister, bei ihrem ohnehin bleibenden moralischen Werth und sittlichen Eindruck, übertreffen werden.&#8221; (I have tried, as much as possible, to reproduce them. I also tried, as much as possible, to bring harmony into them, and spared neither effort nor attention, so that they will certainly surpass all their earlier siblings, with their already lasting moral value and moral impression.)&nbsp;</span></span><script type="text/javascript"> jQuery('#footnote_plugin_tooltip_41918_10_1').tooltip({ tip: '#footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_41918_10_1', tipClass: 'footnote_tooltip', effect: 'fade', predelay: 0, fadeInSpeed: 200, delay: 400, fadeOutSpeed: 200, position: 'center right', relative: true, offset: [0, 0], });</script> </p>
<p>A third edition, under the title <em>Gebet⸗ und Erbauungsbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer mosaischer Religion</em> with further substantial edits, was published in 1843 by Kaulfuß Witwe, Prandel &#038; Company in Vienna. Althought this edition was also published posthumously, it appears to have been an endorsed edition as it contains a foreword that seems to have been written by Beer. </p>

Auf einer Geschäftsreise, welche ich wegen der Herausgabe der bei mir in deutscher und hebräischer Sprache erscheinenden Bibel unternahm, wurde ich in mehreren der ersten städte Bayerns von einigen unserer ersten Herren Rabbiner, und auch insbesondere von vielen geistreichen Damen aufgefordert, das früher und in  jüdisch-deutscher Sprache erschienene, aber seit langer Zeit nicht mehr gedruckte und gänzlich vergriffene „Gebetbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer, mosaischer Religion, von P. Beer&#8221; neu aufzulegen, und in reine deutsche sprache überzutragen, so wagte ich es denn dieser Aufforderung nachzukommen, und bemühte mich, so viel in meinen Kräften stand, diese Gebete, welche P. Beer, wie er selbst in seiner Vorrede sagt, theils sammelte, theils aus eigener Feder fließen ließ, getreu, und von ihren frühern unzähligen. Fehlern gereinigt, wiederzugeben. Auch suchte ich, so viel möglich, Wohlklang in dieselben zu bringen, und scheute weder Mühe noch Aufmerksämkeit, so daß sie gewiß alle ihre frühern Geschwister, bei ihrem ohnehin bleibenden moralischen Werth und sittlichen Eindruck, übertreffen werden. — Ich rechne auf Nachsicht für einzelne Fehler, wenn das Ganze dafür spricht, daß mein Unternehmen nicht vergeblich und zwecklos ist. Sollte ich aber dennoch, wider Vermuthen, dem Tadel des Einen oder des Andern mich unterwerfen müssen; so lebe ich auf der andern Seite der freudigen Hoffnung, daß mich die Schönen, welche jetzt der gründlichen Erlernung der deutschen Sprache und Stylübung mehr als je obliegen, rechtfertigen, und in der öffentlichen Meinung unterstützen werden! — Bei einer erwünschten zweiten Auflage würde ich Verbesserungen von Kennern auf das Dankbarste anerkennen.

On a business trip, which I undertook because of the publication of the Bible, which I publish in German and Hebrew, I was asked in several of the first cities of Bavaria by some of our first rabbis, and also especially by many witty ladies, to reprint the &#8220;Gebetbuch für gebildete Frauenzimmer, mosaischer Religion, von P. Beer&#8221; and to translate it into pure German, so I dared to comply with this request and tried, as much as I could, to reproduce these prayers, which P. Beer, as he himself says in his preface, partly collected, partly from his own pen, faithfully and corrected from their earlier innumerable errors. I have tried, as much as possible, to reproduce [the prayers]. I also tried, as much as possible, to bring harmony into them, and spared neither effort nor attention, so that they will certainly surpass all their earlier siblings, with their already lasting moral value and moral impression. — I rely on leniency for individual mistakes, if the whole speaks for the fact that my enterprise is not in vain and futile. Should I nevertheless, contrary to presumption, have to submit to the censure of one or the other, I live on the other side of the joyful hope that the belles, who are now more than ever committed to the thorough learning of the German language and stylistic practice, will justify me and support me in public opinion! — In the case of a desired second edition, I would most gratefully acknowledge improvements by experts.

Religion ist das geistige Band, welches das Himmlische mit dem Irdischen vereint. Sie ist gleichsam eine Leiter, deren Fuß auf der Erde wurzelt, und deren Spitze bis in den Himmel reicht, worauf Gott durch Bekanntmachung seiner über Alles erhabenen Eigenschaften und seines, das Beste des Menschen bezweckenden Willens, mittelst Vernunft und Offenbarung zu dem Menschen sich herabließ, so wie der Mensch durch Anerkennung dieser göttlichen Eigenschaften, und Befolgung seines Willens sich zu Gott erhebt. Für den Menschen sind also Erkenntniß Gottes, und Befolgung seines Willens die Mittelstufen, worauf Gott sich ihm, und er Gott sich nahet. Denn, je reinere Kenntnisse ein Mensch von Gott sich erworben hat, um so größern Andrang zur Liebe, zum Glauben und Vertrauen zu demselben wird sein Herz fühlen, und je liebevoller sein Herz gegen Gott gestimmt ist, um so stärker wird seine Thatkraft zur Befolgung seines Willens angeregt, und um so kräftiger wird sie in seinen Handlungen sich äußern.

Religion is the spiritual bond that unites the heavenly with the earthly. It is, as it were, a ladder, the foot of which is rooted on earth and the top of which reaches up to heaven, whereupon God, by making known His supreme attributes and His will, which aims at the best of man, condescended to man by means of reason and revelation, just as man rises to God by recognizing these divine attributes and following His will. For man, then, knowledge of God and compliance with his will are the middle stages by which God approaches him and he approaches God. For the purer knowledge a man has acquired of God, the greater the urge to love, believe and trust in Him his heart will feel, and the more loving his heart is toward God, the more strongly his power of action will be stimulated to follow His will, and the more powerfully it will express itself in his actions.

Hat der Mensch sich richtige Kenntnisse von Gottes Allmacht, Allgüte und Allweisheit erworben, und erkennt er zugleich seine eigene Schwäche und Abhängigkeit, so drängt sich ihm unabweislich der Gedanke auf, daß Gott ihm Alles ist, er selbst aber sich wenig genügen kann.

When man has acquired correct knowledge of God&#8217;s omnipotence, omnibenevolence and omniscience, and at the same time recognizes his own weakness and dependence, the thought inevitably forces itself upon him that God is everything to him, but that he himself is hardly sufficient. These reflections fill man&#8217;s mind with praise and gratitude to the Giver of all good things when he enjoys and is about to enjoy joys, and with the desire and request for relief and relief in suffering and sad circumstances, to the Almighty who wants to help and to the Almighty who can help.

Durch ein solches andächtiges und inbrünstiges Gebet wird der Mensch angeregt, über sich selbst überhaupt, und über seine Mängel und Fehler insbesondere nachzudenken, und er siehet ein, wie oft er von der ihm von Gott durch Natur und Offenbarung vorgezeichneten Bahn zu seiner eigenen Glückseligkeit abgewichen, fühlt Reue und faßt den Vorsatz sich zu bessern. Jede Tugend, jeder gute und edle Vorsatz, und jede Anregung zum Guten erlangt neue Bewegsgründe und neue Kräfte zur That überzugehen. Den sünder weckt es aus seiner Betäubung der Gottesvergessenheit, und mit jeder Thräne der Zerknirschung, die sich aus seinem Auge drängt, befestiget sich der Entschluß in seinem Herzen, auf den Weg zur Tugend einzulenken, und nie wieder in Fehltritte auszugleiten. So wie andererseits der Glückliche dadurch belehrt wird, daß er nicht nur das Gute dankbar und bescheiden zu genießen, sondern auch einen würdigen Gebrauch von seinem Überflusse dadurch zu machen habe, daß er dem Dürftigen davon mildthätig und freundlich mittheile.

Through such devout and fervent prayer, man is stimulated to reflect on himself in general, and on his shortcomings and faults in particular, and he realizes how often he has deviated from the path to his own happiness laid out for him by God through nature and revelation, feels remorse and resolves to improve himself. Every virtue, every good and noble intention, and every stimulus to do good acquires new motives and new powers to proceed to action. It awakens the sinner from his stupor of forgetfulness of God, and with every tear of contrition that flows from his eye, the resolution is strengthened in his heart to turn to the path of virtue and never again to slip into wrongdoing. Just as, on the other hand, the happy man is taught that he should not only enjoy the good with gratitude and modesty, but also make a worthy use of his abundance by giving it to the poor with kindness and charity.

Ein Gebet dieser Art beshwichtiget auch den Sturm in der Brust des Leidenden und Unglücklichen aller Art, indem er sich des Dranges seines Herzens vor Gott entlediget, und durch kindliches Vertrauen auf ihn sich beruhiget fühlt. Es ist ihm gleich einem Freunde, der seinen Kummer in den Busen seines vertrautesten, seines bewährtesten Freundes ausschüttet, und dadurch , wenn auch nicht immer Abhilfe, doch durch seine Theilnahme Trost und Erleichterung findet. Der Gedanke, daß seine Leiden aus den Händen eines so gerechten als liebreichen Vaters kommen, wird ihm Trost, Muth und Stärke zur Überwindung oder geduldigen Ausharrung derselben einflößen, so wie seine kindliche Zuversicht zu der göttlichen Waltung ihn belehren wird, daß seine Leiden Mittel in der Hand Gottes sind, um sein Bestes zu bezwecken, und daß selbst in diesen Leiden der Keim zu seinem Wohle, sey es dieß⸗ oder jenseits des Grabes, liegt, obgleih sein endlicher Verstand den unendlichen, in das ganze Weltall eingreifenden Gottesplan zu erfassen nicht vermag.

A prayer of this kind also soothes the storm in the breast of the suffering and unfortunate of all kinds, in that he relieves himself of the urge of his heart before God, and feels calmed by childlike trust in him. He is like a friend who pours out his sorrow into the bosom of his most intimate, his most trusted friend, and thereby finds, if not always relief, at least comfort and relief through his sympathy. The thought that his sufferings come from the hands of such a just and loving father will instill in him comfort, courage and strength to overcome or patiently endure them, just as his childlike confidence in divine guidance will instruct him, that his sufferings are means in the hands of God for the purpose of his best, and that even in these sufferings lies the germ of his good, whether this or beyond the grave, although his finite mind is not able to grasp the infinite plan of God intervening in the whole universe.

Vorzüglich erinnert ein so geartetes Gebet den Menschen an seine Pflichten. So z. B. kann kein Sünder um Verzeihung seiner Sünden zu Gott beten, ohne sich zu erinnern, daß auch er seinen Beleidigern zu verzeihen, und Groll, Haß und Rachsucht aus seinem Herzen zu verbannen habe. Wer Gott um Verleihung des Guten oder um Abwendung des Übels für sich anruft, dem drängt sich unausweichlich der Gedanke auf, daß auch er alle seine Kräfte aufzubieten habe, um das Übel von seinem Nächsten abzuwenden und sein Wohl zu befördern. Denn welch&#8217; eine Vermessenheit gehört dazu, von Gott, dem Vater aller Menschen, für sich etwas zu erbitten, was man seinen Brüder versagt!

Especially such a prayer reminds man of his duties.

Whoever calls upon God for the bestowal of good or for the averting of evil for himself is inevitably forced to think that he, too, must summon all his strength to avert evil from his neighbor and to promote his own good. For what presumption it is to ask God, the Father of all men, for something for oneself which one denies to one&#8217;s brothers!

Aus diesen Betrachtungen gehet hervor, daß ein Gebet, welches die angeführten wohlthätigen Wirkungen bezwecken, und den einflußreichsten Segen für den Betenden und für andere Menschen hervorbringen soll, nur aus dem Innersten des Menschen kommen, und nur in den eigenen Worten des Betenden, so wie die Empfindung seines Herzens, bei jeder sich darbietenden Gelegenheit sie ihm eingibt bestehen kann, welches man Herzensgebet nennt, weil es der Übergang der Herzensgefühle in Worten ist, im Gegensatze des Lippengebets, wo das Herz von dem, was der Mund spricht, nichts weiß und das Gefühl kalt, so wie das Gemüth unangeregt und leer bleibt. Über Gebete dieser Art spricht sich Gott durch den heiligen Propheten <span class="citation">(Isaias, 29, 13)</span> in folgenden Worten aus: „Dieses Volk nahet sich mir mit dem Munde nur, ehrt mich blos mit den Lippen, ihr Herz aber ist fern von mir.“

From these considerations it is evident that a prayer which is intended to produce the beneficial effects mentioned and the most influential blessing for the person praying and for other people can only come from the innermost part of the human being and can only exist in the words of the person praying, as the feelings of his heart give them to him on every occasion. This is called prayer of the heart, because it is the transition of the heart&#8217;s feelings into words, in contrast to the prayer of the lips, where the heart knows nothing of what the mouth speaks and the feeling remains cold, as well as the mind unaffected and empty. God speaks about prayers of this kind through the holy prophet <span class="citation">(Isaiah 29:13)</span> in the following words: &#8220;This people approaches me only with their mouth, honors me only with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Gebete der letzten Art entstehen blos aus dem leidigem Irrwahne, der bei vielen Menschen sich eingenistet hat, daß der Mensch durch sein Gebet Gott, der doch erhaben über alle Schwachheiten und Bedürfnisse ist, einen Dienst leistet, er dasselbe bei dessen Unterlassung mit unerbittlicher Strenge als einen unerläßlichen Tribut einfordert, und es nicht nach den Empfindungen unseres Gemüths und Reinheit des Herzens, sondern nach der öftern Wiederholung und nach der Menge der Worte, selbst wenn das Herz dabei auch gar nichts fühlt, ja selbst wenn sie dem Betenden ganz unverständlich sind, schätzt und würdiget. Ein Wahn, der leider bei unsern Glaubensgenossen tiefe Wurzel gefaßt hat, indem der ungebildete, das Wesentliche der mosaischen Religion nicht kennende, und daher die Schale für den Kern ansehende Theil wähnt, nur in einer Sprache beten zu müssen die er nicht verstehet, und in einer solchen Überzahl, die jeden Funken von Andacht verscheucht.

Prayers of the latter kind arise only from the unfortunate delusion that has taken root in many people, that man, through his prayer, renders a service to God, who after all is exalted above all weaknesses and needs, and that if he fails to do so, he demands it with inexorable severity as an indispensable tribute, and does not value and appreciate it according to the feelings of our mind and purity of heart, but according to the frequent repetition and the quantity of the words, even if the heart does not feel anything at all, even if they are completely incomprehensible to the praying person. This is a delusion that has unfortunately taken deep root among our co-religionists, in that the uneducated, ignorant of the essentials of the Mosaic religion, and therefore considering the shell to be the core, believe that they have to pray only in a language they do not understand, and in such excess that any spark of devotion is dispelled.

Wenn der Psalmist <span class="citation">(Ps. 145, 17)</span> sagt: „Gott ist Allen nahe, die ihn in der Wahrheit anrufen“, so muß es auch Menschen geben, die Gott nicht in der Wahrheit anrufen. Darunter aber werden jene Betenden verstanden, die Gott mit dem Munde anrufen, ohne daß der Geist daran Theil nimmt, oder das Gemüth etwas dabei fühlt. Diese nehmen das Mittel, für den Zweck, und der Zweck, nämlich die Aufmerksamkeit auf seine Pflichten, und Aufmunterung zum Guten gehet ganz verloren. — Aber, wird Mancher einwenden, wie kann bei einer so großen Anzahl von Gebeten, die in unsern täglichen und festlichen Gebetbüchern zusammengetragen, und zu deren Herablesung mehrere Stunden nöthig sind, die Andacht in voller Kraft sich erhalten? — Wahrlich, das kann sie nicht. Daher sagt Salomo schon <span class="citation">(Predig. 4. 17)</span>: „Gott ist im Himmel, und du bist auf der Erde, darum laß deiner Worte wenig seyn“. Die spätern Weisen in Israel sprechen sich hierüber noch deutlicher in den Worten aus, „Besser wenig beten mit Andacht, als viel ohne Andacht.“

When the psalmist <span class="citation">(Psalms 145:17)</span> says: &#8220;God is near to all who call on him in truth,&#8221; there must also be people who do not call on God in truth. By this, however, are understood those who call upon God with their mouths without the spirit taking part in it or the mind feeling anything. They take the means for the end, and the end, namely attention to one&#8217;s duties and encouragement to do good, is completely lost. — But, some will object, how can devotion remain in full force with such a large number of prayers, which are collected in our daily and festive prayer books, and for the reading of which several hours are necessary? — Truly, it cannot. Therefore Solomon already says <span class="citation">(Ecclesiastes 4:17)</span>: &#8220;God is in heaven, and you are on earth, therefore let your words be few. The later sages in Israel speak even more clearly about this in the words, &#8220;It is better to pray little with devotion than much without devotion.&#8221;

Diese Betrachtungen haben mich veranlaßt bereits vor dreißig Jahren, für meine Gattin und meine heranwachsenden Töchter, einige Gebete zu verfassen, und da sie bei mehreren ihrer Freundinnen Beifall gefunden, haben, im Jahre 1815 im Drucke herauszugeben. Diese Gebete erschienen zwar damals eben in deutsher Sprache, aber mit sogenannten jüdisch⸗deutschen Lettern abgedruckt, weil in damaliger Zeit noch das Vorurtheil herrschte, daß in der Synagoge kein Buch gelesen werden darf, welches nicht mit hebräischen, oder sogenannten jüdisch⸗deutschen Lettern abgedruckt ist. Da nun einerseits in dieser Zwischenzeit dieses Vorurtheil, so wie mehrere dieser Art durch Bildung und Einsicht, wie der Nebel vor dem Sonnenschein zerronnen, und andererseits die erste Auflage dieses Gebetbuchs längst vergriffen ist, so fand ich es nicht unzuträglich, eine zweite vermehrte und verbesserte Auflage zu veranstalten.

These reflections prompted me thirty years ago to compose some prayers for my wife and my growing daughters, and since they met with the approval of several of her friends, to publish them in print in 1815. These prayers appeared at that time in German, but printed in so-called Judeo-German letters, because at that time the prejudice still prevailed that no book may be read in the synagogue which is not printed in Hebrew or so-called Judeo-German letters. Since, on the one hand, this prejudice, as well as several others of this kind, has melted away like the mist before the sunshine, and on the other hand, the first edition of this prayer book has long been out of print, I found it not inappropriate to organize a second, increased and improved edition.

Zwar sind diese Gebete mehr Betrachtungen und Anregungen, als was man sonst gewöhnlich Gebete, das heißt, Anreden an Gott nannte. Aber dies sollten sie auch seyn, wenn sie dem oben angegebenen Zweck entsprechen sollen. — Ich hoffe, daß kein ächt gebildetes Frauenzimmer mosaischen Glaubens sich schämen wird, dieses Gebetbuch auf ihrer Toilette finden zu lassen, und oft in⸗ und außer der Synagoge davon Gebrauch zu machen. Denn meine Absicht bei diesen angestellten Betrachtungen ist keineswegs, die Freuden des Lebens, die Gottes Vaterhand so milde, so segensreich und in so übershwenglicher Fülle dem Menschen zum Genusse, nicht aber um dabei zu darben, ihm darzubieten die Gnade hatte, zu verscheuchen, sondern vielmehr durch Hinlenkung zum wahren Zwecke mittelst Befolgung der Gesetze der Vernunft, und des geoffenbarten göttlichen Willens, sie um so genußreicher, angenehmer und dauerhafter zu machen.

Admittedly, these prayers are more reflections and suggestions than what one usually called prayers, i.e., addresses to God. But this is what they should be, if they are to correspond to the purpose stated above. — I hope that no genuinely educated woman of the Mosaic faith will be ashamed to have this prayer book found in her closet, and to make frequent use of it in and out of the synagogue. For my intention in these reflections is by no means to scare away the pleasures of life, which God&#8217;s Father&#8217;s hand has so mildly, so beneficently, and in such profuse abundance bestowed upon man for his enjoyment, and not to deprive him of it, but rather, by directing him to the true purpose by following the laws of reason and the revealed divine will, to make them all the more enjoyable, pleasant, and lasting. God grant that all who make use of this book may benefit from it, according to the wishes of the author.
