Pray for the peace of America.
May those who love her be tranquil,
and the hands of violence stilled within her.
May there be peace in Your political campaigns
and in the pursuit of Your citizens’ causes,
Tranquility in Your public discourse,
in every corner of the land.
For the sake of my friends and my kin,
and for the sake of every American,
those with whom I agree,
and those whom I oppose,
I pray for peace.
For the sake of the house of Adonai our God,
and for the sake of our country,
blessed by Adonai
with the gifts of freedom
and self-government,
I seek the welfare of all.

Based on Psalms 122:6-9, this prayer for civility and domestic peace in the United States of America was offered in the day following the assassination attempt of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.
