אַל תִּזְכָּר לָנוּ עֲו‍ֹנוֹת רִאשׁוֹנִים.

Remember not the sins of our ancestors;

מַהֵר יְקַדְּמוּנוּ רַחֲמֶיךָ

let Your compassion come swiftly toward us,

כִּי דַלּוֹנוּ מְאֹד:

for we have been brought very low.

חַטֹּאת נְעוּרֵינוּ וְפְשָׁעֵינוּ

The sins of our youth and our transgressions,

אַל תִּזְכֹּר

remember not;

כְּחַסְדְּךָ זְכָר לָנוּ אַתָּה

with Your kindliness remember us

לְמַעַן טוּבְךָ יְהֹוָה

for the sake of Your goodness, Adonoy.

זְכֹר רַחֲמֶֽיךָ יְהֹוָה

Remember Your mercies, Adonoy,

גָּאַֽלְתָּ שֵֽׁבֶט

You have redeemed the tribe

נַחֲלָתֶֽךָ

of Your inheritance,

הַר צִיּוֹן זֶה שָׁכַנְתָּ בּוֹ:

this mountain of Zion where You have dwelled.

זְּכוֹר יְהֹוָה חִבַּת יְרוּשָׁלָֽםִ

Remember, Adonoy, the affection of Jerusalem,

אַהֲבַת צִיּוֹן אַל תִּשְׁכַּח לָנֶֽצַח:

the love of Zion, forget not until eternity.

Remember, Adonoy,

לִבְנֵי אֱדוֹם אֵת יוֹם יְרוּשָׁלָֽםִ

to the sons of Edom, the day of Jerusalem,

הָאֹמְרִים

[it was they] who said,

עָֽרוּ עָֽרוּ עַד הַיְסוֹד בָּהּ:

“Raze it, raze it to its very foundations.”

אַתָּה תָקוּם

You will arise

תְּרַחֵם צִיּוֹן.

and have compassion on Zion,

כִּי עֵת לְחֶנְנָהּ

כִּי בָא מוֹעֵד:

for the appointed time has come.

אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּֽעְתָּ לָהֶם בָּךְ

to whom You swore by Your very Self,

וַתְּדַבֵּר אֲלֵהֶם

and You said to them:

אַרְבֶּה אֶת זַרְעֲכֶם

“I will multiply your seed

כְּכוֹכְבֵי הַשָּׁמָֽיִם.

as the stars of the heavens;

וְכָל הָאָֽרֶץ הַזֹּאת אֲשֶׁר אָמַֽרְתִּי

and all this land that I have promised,

אֶתֵּן לְזַרְעֲכֶם

I will give to your descendants,

וְנָחֲלוּ לְעוֹלָם:

and they will inherit it forever.”

זְכֹר לַעֲבָדֶֽיךָ

Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob;

אַל תֵּֽפֶן אֶל קְשִׁי הָעָם הַזֶּה

do not regard the stubborness of this people,

וְאֶל רִשְׁעוֹ וְאֶל חַטָּאתוֹ:

or their wickedness, or their sin.

Do not, we beseech You

תָשֵׁת עָלֵֽינוּ חַטָּאת

the covenant with their ancestors,

אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵֽאתִי אוֹתָם

whom I brought out

מֵאֶֽרֶץ מִצְרַֽיִם

of the land of Egypt,

לְעֵינֵי הַגּוֹיִם

in the sight of the nations;

לִהְיוֹת לָהֶם לֵאלֹהִים

to be their God

אֲנִי יְהֹוָה:

I am Adonoy.”

עֲשֵׂה עִמָּֽנוּ כְּמָה שֶׁהִבְטַחְתָּֽנוּ.

Do unto us as You promised,

וְאַף גַּם זֹאת

“And yet for all that,

בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶֽרֶץ אוֹיְבֵיהֶם

when they are in the land of their enemies,

לֹא מְאַסְתִּים

I will not reject them

וְלֹא גְעַלְתִּים לְכַלֹּתָם

Sweep aside our transgressions

כָּעָב וְכֶעָנָן

as a thick cloud and as a mist,

כְּמָה שֶׁכָּתוּב.

“I have swept away like a thick cloud

פְּשָׁעֶֽיךָ

your transgressions,

Who blots out your transgressions

לְמַעֲנִי

for My own sake;

וְחַטֹּאתֶֽיךָ לֹא אֶזְכֹּר:

and your sins, I will not recall.”

says Adonoy,

אִם יִהְיוּ חֲטָאֵיכֶם כַּשָּׁנִים

though your sins be as scarlet,

כַּשֶּֽׁלֶג יַלְבִּֽינוּ

they shall be as white as snow;

אִם יַאְדִּֽימוּ כַתּוֹלָע

כַּצֶּֽמֶר יִהְיוּ:

they shall become [white] as wool.”

“For an Almighty of mercy is Adonoy,

אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ

your God;

לֹא יַרְפְּךָ וְלֹא יַשְׁחִיתֶֽךָ

He will not abandon you or destroy you,

וְלֹא יִשְׁכַּח

and He will not forget

אֶת בְּרִית אֲבוֹתֶֽיךָ

בִּקְצֵה הַשָּׁמָֽיִם

are in the farthermost part of heaven,

מִשָּׁם יְקַבֶּצְךָ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ

“And Adonoy, your God will return

אֶת שְׁבוּתְךָ וְרִחֲמֶֽךָ

your captivity and have compassion on you;

וְשָׁב וְקִבֶּצְךָ

and He will again gather you

מִכָּל הָעַמִּים

from [among] all the peoples,

אֲשֶׁר הֱפִיצְךָ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ שָֽׁמָּה:

where Adonoy, your God has scattered you.”
