          <english>&lt;b&gt;Come, let us sing to the Lord&lt;/b&gt; before the arrival of Shabbat. &lt;b&gt;Let us raise our voices&lt;/b&gt; in joy to God, the strong &lt;b&gt;Rock Who is our salvation. Let us approach Him with thanks. Let us raise our voices to Him in song, because the Lord is a great God and a great King over all&lt;/b&gt; heavenly beings. God rules everything; the &lt;b&gt;secrets buried in the depths of the earth are in His hands, and the mountain peaks are His. The sea is His,&lt;/b&gt; because &lt;b&gt;He made&lt;/b&gt; it; &lt;b&gt;His hands formed the dry land. Come, let us prostrate, bow down, and bend our knees before the Lord, our Maker,&lt;/b&gt; because &lt;b&gt;He is our God, and we are the nation that He tends.&lt;/b&gt; We are like sheep&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; that are guided gently by God&apos;s caring hands. Moses says to the Jewish Nation: God will be kind to you immediately, &lt;b&gt;today, if you listen to His voice.&lt;/b&gt;</english>
