I offer thanks to You, living and eternal King, for You have mercifully restored my soul within me; Your faithfulness is great.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us concerning the washing of the hands.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who formed man with wisdom and created in him many openings and many cavities. It is revealed and known before the throne of Your glory that if one of them were to be blocked, or if one of them were to be opened, it would be impossible to survive even for a single hour. Blessed are You, L‑rd, who heals all flesh and performs wonders.

My G‑d, the soul which You have placed within me is pure. You created it, You formed it, You breathed it into me, and You preserve it within me; You will one day take it from me and restore it to me in the time to come. As long as the soul is within me, I give thanks before You, L‑rd my G‑d and G‑d of my fathers, Master of all works, L‑rd of all souls. Blessed are You, L‑rd, who restores souls to dead bodies.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who gives the rooster understanding to distinguish between day and night.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who opens the eyes of the blind.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who releases the bound.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who straightens the bent.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who clothes the naked.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who gives strength to the weary.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who spreads out the earth above the waters.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who prepares the steps of man.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has provided me with all my needs.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who girds Israel with might.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who crowns Israel with splendor.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has not made me a gentile.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has not made me a slave.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has not made me a woman.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who removes sleep from my eyes and slumber from my eyelids. And may it be Your will, L‑rd our G‑d and G‑d of our fathers, to accustom us to [study] Your Torah and to make us cleave to Your commandments. Do not bring us into the hands of sin, nor into the hands of transgression and iniquity, nor into the hands of temptation, nor into the hands of disgrace. Let not the evil inclination have mastery over us, and keep us far from a bad person and from a bad companion. Make us cleave to the good inclination and to good deeds, and compel our inclination to be subservient to You. Grant us, this day and every day, grace, kindness and mercy in Your eyes and in the eyes of all who see us, and bestow upon us bountiful kindnesses. Blessed are You, L‑rd, who bestows bountiful kindnesses upon His people Israel.

May it be Your will, L‑rd my G‑d and G‑d of my fathers, to protect me this day and every day from brazen men and from brazenness; from a bad person, from a bad companion, from a bad neighbor, and from a bad mishap; from the evil eye, from evil speech, from slander, from false testimony, from people's hatred, from false accusation, from unnatural death, from grave illnesses and from evil occurrences; from the destructive adversary, from a harsh judgment and from a harsh opponent in judgment, whether he is a member of the covenant or not; and from the judgment of Gehinnom.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us concerning the words of Torah.

L‑rd our G‑d, make the words of Your Torah pleasant in our mouth and in the mouth of all Your people, the House of Israel, so that we and our descendants, and the descendants of all Your people, the House of Israel, may all know Your Name and study Your Torah for its own sake. Blessed are You, L‑rd, who teaches Torah to His people Israel.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has chosen us from among all the nations and given us His Torah. Blessed are You, L‑rd, who gives the Torah.

(Numbers 6:22-27)

The L‑rd spoke to Moses, saying:

Speak to Aharon and his sons, saying: Thus shall you bless the children of Israel; say to them:

May the L‑rd bless you and guard you.

May the L‑rd make His countenance shine upon you and be gracious to you.

May the L‑rd turn His countenance toward you and grant you peace.

And they shall set My Name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.

(Mishnah, Pe'ah 1:1)

These are the things that have no fixed measure: the corner of the field [left for the poor], the first fruits, the pilgrimage offering, acts of kindness, and the study of Torah.

(Shabbos 127a)

These are the things the fruits of which man enjoys in this world, while the principal remains for him in the World to Come. They are:

Honoring father and mother, acts of kindness, coming early to the house of study morning and evening, hospitality to guests, visiting the sick, providing for a bride, escorting the dead, concentration in prayer, and bringing peace between a person and his fellow and between husband and wife; and the study of Torah is equal to them all.

Blessed are You, L‑rd our G‑d, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us concerning the mitzvah of tzitzis.

I offer thanks to You, living and eternal King, for You have mercifully restored my soul within me; Your faithfulness is great.
