          <text>The following blessing and response are said only in the presence of a minyan. They represent a formal summons to the congregation to engage in an act of collective prayer. The custom of bowing at this point is based on I Chronicles 29:20, &quot;David said to the whole assembly, &apos;Now bless the LORD your God.&apos; All the assembly blessed the LORD God of their fathers and bowed their heads low to the LORD and the King.&quot; The Leader says the following, bowing at &quot;Bless,&quot; standing straight at &quot;the LORD.&quot; The congregation, followed by the Leader, responds, bowing at &quot;Bless,&quot; standing straight at &quot;the LORD.&quot;</text>
