ברכת תפלין	ΕΥΧΗ ΔΙΑ ΤΑ “ΤΕΦΙΛΙΝ„ (ΦΥΛΑΚΤΗΡΙΑ)
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ לְהָנִיחַ תְּפִלִּין:	Εὐλογητὸς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ Βασιλεὺς τοῦ Παντὸς, ὁ ἁγιάσας ἡμᾶς διὰ τῶν ἐντολῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ δοὺς εἰς ἡμᾶς τὴν ἐντολὴν νὰ φορῶμεν τὰ «Τεφιλίν.»
ואם הפסיק בדבור בין תפלין של יד לתפלין של ראש יברך
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ עַל מִצְוַת תְּפִלִּין:	Εὐλογητὸς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὁ Βασιλεὺς τοῦ Παντὸς, ὁ ἁγιάσας ἡμᾶς διὰ τῶν ἐντολῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ δοὺς εἰς ἡμᾶς τὴν ἐντολὴν τῶν Τεφιλίν.
