How to read the transliterations
Hebrew
לַיהוָה הַיְשׁוּעָה, עַל עַמְּךָ בִרְכָתֶךָ סֶלָה.
יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת עִמָּנוּ, מִשְׂגָּב לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶלָה.
יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, אַשְׁרֵי אָדָם בֹּטֵחַ בָּךְ.
יְהוָה הוֹשִׁיעָה, הַמֶּלֶךְ יַעֲנֵנוּ בְיוֹם קָרְאֵנוּ.
Israeli
ladonai hayshu-ah, al amecha virchatecha selah.
Adonai Tz'va-ot imanu, misgav lanu Elohei Ya-akov selah.
Adonai Tz'va-ot, ashrei Adam boteach bach.
Adonai hoshi-ah, hamelech ya-anenu v'yom korenu.
English
Deliverance is Yours, Adonai; may Your blessings be upon Your people forever. Adonai Tz’va’ot is with us. The God of Jacob is our protection. Adonai Tz’va’ot, blessed are those who trust in You. Adonai, deliver us! Surely our sovereign will respond to us in the hour of our calling.
Hebrew
הוֹשִׁיעָה אֶת־עַמֶּךָ וּבָרֵךְ אֶת־נַחֲלָתֶךָ,
וּרְעֵם וְנַשְּׂאֵם עַד הָעוֹלָם.
נַפְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָה לַיהוָה, עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הוּא.
כִּי בוֹ יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ, כִּי בְשֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ בָטָחְנוּ.
יְהִי חַסְדְּךָ יְהוָה עָלֵינוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר יִחַלְנוּ לָךְ.
הַרְאֵנוּ יְהוָה חַסְדֶּךָ, וְיֶשְׁעֲךָ תִּתֶּן־לָנוּ.
קוּמָה עֶזְרָתָה לָּנוּ וּפְדֵנוּ לְמַעַן חַסְדֶּךָ.
אָנֹכִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ הַמַּעַלְךָ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם,
הַרְחֶב־פִּיךָ וַאֲמַלְאֵהוּ.
אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁכָּכָה לּוֹ,
אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁיְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו.
וַאֲנִי בְּחַסְדְּךָ בָטַחְתִּי יָגֵל לִבִּי בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ,
אָשִׁירָה לַיהוָה כִּי גָמַל עָלָי.
Israeli
hoshi-ah et-amecha uvarech et-nachalatecha,
ure-em venase-em ad ha-olam.
nafshenu chiktah ladonai, ezrenu umaginenu hu.
ki vo yismach libenu, ki v'shem kodsho vatachnu.
yehi chasdecha Adonai aleinu ka-asher yichalnu lach.
harenu Adonai chasdecha, veyeshacha titen-lanu.
kumah ezratah lanu ufdenu lema-an chasdecha.
anochi Adonai Elohecha hama-alcha me-eretz Mitzrayim,
harchev-picha va-amalehu.
ashrei ha-am shekachah lo,
ashrei ha-am she-Adonai elohav.
va-ani b'chasdecha vatachti yagel libi bishu-atecha,
ashirah ladonai ki gamal alai.
English
DELIVER AND BLESS this people, whom You have made Your own; shepherd them and exalt them forever. We await Adonai, our helper and protector. Our hearts rejoice in God; we have faith in God’s holy name. May Your love and kindness be with us, Adonai, for our hope is in You. Show us Your love and kindness, and extend Your deliverance to us. Arise and come to our help; redeem us through Your kindly love. “I am Adonai your God who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open your mouth and I will satiate you.” Joyous the people who are so favored; joyous the people whose God is Adonai. I trust in Your love and kindness; my heart rejoices in Your deliverance; I sing to Adonai for all that God has done for me.
