The text of the prayer here is that which was distributed by Rabbi Captain Udi Schwartz, head of the chief rabbi for Tsahal (IDF), and published by Arutz 7. The kavvanah is derived from one published in 1983 by Rav Yitschok Zilberstein for those who, due to their state of health, must eat or drink in order to live (find Toras haYoledes (1983), chapter 52, section 10, p. 357; pp. 331-332 in the bilingual edition 1989). That kavvanah, according to Rabbi Zilberstein was, “הועתק ממחזור עתיק” (“copied from an old maḥzor”). A plea for retributive justice at the end of aseh l’maan shemekha (“Act for the Sake of Your Name”) in the Seliḥot of Elul and the Days of Awe, in response to the suffering endured on and after 7 October 2023. A prayer is for all members of עם ישראל who are in dangerous or oppressive conditions: Israeli soldiers including those who are in combat at this moment, captives and wounded soldiers and civilians alike, “all those threatened by malice in our land and in exile,” and “all those in need of Your comfort” — especially the families of dead or wounded soldiers and civilians in Israel and in exile.
