Avinu Shebashamyaim tzur Yisrael vego’alo barekh et medinat Yisrael reishit tzemichat geulateinu.  Hagein aleyha be’evrat chasdekha ufros aleyha sukkat shelomekha ushelach orekha va’amitekha lerasheha, sareha, veyo’atzeha vetakneim be’atzah tovah milfanekha.  Chazeik et yedei meginei eretz kodsheinu vehanchileim Eloheynu Yeshua va’ateret nitzahon te’atreim, venatata shalom ba’aretz vesimchat olam leyoshveha.  Vinomar, amen. 

Our Father in Heaven, rock and Redeemer of the people of Israel; Bless the State of Israel with the beginning of the blossoming our redemption.  Shield it with Your love; spread over it the shelter of Your peace.  Guide its leaders and advisors with Your light and truth.  Help them with your good counsel.  Strengthen the hands of those who defend our Holy Land.  Deliver them; crown their efforts with triumph.  Bless the land with peace, and its inhabitants with lasting joy.  And let us say: Amen
