Master of the worlds and Lord of the lords, Father of mercy and forgiveness. We thank you,
HaWaJa”H, our Elokim and Elokim of our ancestors, by bowing and kneeling, that You have
brought us closer to Your Torah and Your holy service. You have initiated us into the
mysteries of Your holy Torah. What are we? What is our life that You have given us so much
mercy. For this reason we give our prayer and kneel before You, because You give mercy and
You forgive all our transgressions and sins. May our sins not bring separation between us
and You.
For this reason, may it be Your will, HaWaJa”H, our Elokim and Elokim of our ancestors, to
attune our hearts in such a way that we will fear and love You. Listen to our words and open
our uncircumcised hearts to the mysteries of Your Torah. May our study, which we are about
to do before the throne of Your glory, be pleasant as a pleasant fragrance. Shine upon us the
light of the source of our souls in all our conditions.
May the sparkles of Your holy servants glow, through whom you’ve revealed these words to
the world. May their merits and those of their ancestors and the merits of their study and
purity assist us, so that we do not stumble on the subject of the words which we are about
to learn. May You shine upon us due to their merits by what we learn, as a pleasant
expression of praise of Israel: “Open my eyes so that I will see the wonders in Your Torah”.
May the words of my mouth and the contemplation of my heart be pleasant to You,
HaWaJa”H, my rock and my redeemer; because HaWaJa”H will grant from His mouth
wisdom, knowledge and understanding.
