          <hebrew>אֲבָרְכָה אֶת יְהֹוָה בְּכָל עֵת, תָּמִיד
תְּהִלָּתוֹ בְּפִי: סוֹף דָּבָר
הַכֹּל נִשְׁמָע, אֶת הָאֱלֹהִים יְרָא
וְאֶת מִצְוֹתָיו שְׁמוֹר כִּי זֶה כָּל
הָאָדָם: תְּהִלַּת יְהֹוָה יְדַבֵּר פִּי וִיבָרֵךְ
כָּל בָּשָׂר שֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד:
וַאֲנַחְנוּ נְבָרֵךְ יָהּ מֵעַתָּה וְעַד
עוֹלָם הַלְלוּיָהּ:</hebrew>
          <english>&lt;b&gt;I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise is always in my mouth. After all is said and heard, fear God and keep His commandments, because this is a person&apos;s whole purpose in this world. My mouth will say the praises of the Lord, and everyone will do the same and bless His holy name forever and ever. We will bless God now and forever. Praise the Lord.&lt;/b&gt;</english>

          <text>1 On a basic level, washing the fingertips before saying the blessings after a meal is for reasons of hygiene—to wash off any &quot;Sodomite salt&quot; that might remain, which can afflict the eye upon contact. On a deeper level, it represents washing off any stinginess or lack of empathy we might have after eating a hearty meal. These feelings can dim our eyes from seeing and caring about the needs of others. We rid ourselves of these feelings before blessing God after the meal.</text>
