Envoys will come from Egypt. Let the Ethiopians stretch out their hands to God. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God!

Ascribe power to God, whose glory is over Israel, whose power is in the skies. You are awesome, God, from your sanctuaries. The God of Israel is the one who gives strength and power to the people.

May he defend the afflicted of the people and deliver the children of the poor, but crush the oppressor. May they fear you as long as the sun and moon shine from generation to generation.

May he rule from sea to sea, from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth. May the nomads bow down before him, and his enemies lick the dust. May the kings of Tarshish and of distant shores bring gifts, and may the kings of Sheba and Seba offer tribute. May all kings bow down to him, and all nations serve him. For he will deliver the needy when they cry out for help, and the poor when there is no deliverer. He will have compassion on the poor and the needy, and he will save the lives of the needy. He will redeem them from oppression and violence, since their lives are precious in his sight. May he live long and be given gold from Sheba, and may prayer be offered for him continuously, and may he be blessed every day. May grain be abundant in the land all the way to the mountain tops; may its fruits flourish like the forests of Lebanon, and may the cities sprout like the grass of the earth. May his fame be eternal as long as the sun may his name endure, and may they be blessed through him, and may all nations call him blessed. Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who alone does awesome deeds. And blessed be his glorious name forever, and may the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen!

Bind the festival sacrifice with ropes to the horn at the altar. You are my God, and I will praise you; my God, and I will exalt you. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good and his gracious love is eternal. Alef
