          <english>The Gemara says: &lt;b&gt;It was taught in the academy of Rabbi Yishmael: Even if the Children of Israel had no merit other than greeting their Father in Heaven once a month&lt;/b&gt; by saying the blessing over the new moon, &lt;b&gt;it would be enough for them. Abaye said: Therefore we must say it standing.&lt;/b&gt; In the Song of Songs it says: &lt;b&gt;Who is this coming up from the desert, hanging on to her Beloved&lt;/b&gt;—the Divine Presence? It is the Children of Israel, who love God and look forward to greeting Him every month during the sanctification of the new moon.</english>

          <english>&lt;b&gt;May it be Your will, Lord, my God and the God of my fathers, to fill the lack of light in the moon and make it as bright as the sun, so there will no longer be a decrease in the amount of light in it. May the light of the moon be as the light of the sun,&lt;/b&gt; as the great light that shone during &lt;b&gt;the seven days of Creation,&lt;/b&gt; as it &lt;b&gt;was before its&lt;/b&gt; light &lt;b&gt;was decreased. As it says&lt;/b&gt; in the Torah: &lt;b&gt;And God made the two great sources of light&lt;/b&gt;—the sun and the moon. Originally they were created with equal brightness, but God later made the moon less bright. &lt;b&gt;May the&lt;/b&gt; following verse &lt;b&gt;written&lt;/b&gt; in Hosea &lt;b&gt;be fulfilled by us: The Jewish Nation will look for the Lord, their God, and David, their king. Amen.&lt;/b&gt;</english>

          <hebrew>עָלֵינוּ לְשַׁבֵּחַ לַאֲדוֹן הַכֹּל,
לָתֵת גְּדֻלָּה לְיוֹצֵר
בְּרֵאשִׁית, שֶׁלֹּא עָשָׂנוּ כְּגוֹיֵי
הָאֲרָצוֹת, וְלֹא שָׂמָנוּ כְּמִשְׁפְּחוֹת
הָאֲדָמָה, שֶׁלֹּא שָׂם חֶלְקֵנוּ
כָּהֶם, וְגוֹרָלֵנוּ כְּכָל הֲמוֹנָם,
שֶׁהֵם מִשְׁתַּחֲוִים לְהֶבֶל וָרִיק.
וַאֲנַחְנוּ כּוֹרְעִים וּמִשְׁתַּחֲוִים
וּמוֹדִים לִפְנֵי מֶלֶךְ מַלְכֵי
הַמְּלָכִים, הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא.
שֶׁהוּא נוֹטֶה שָׁמַיִם וְיוֹסֵד</hebrew>

We should praise Him because &lt;b&gt;He has not given us a portion like theirs;&lt;/b&gt; He has given us His Torah. He has &lt;b&gt;not given us a share like all of their people;&lt;/b&gt; for they bow down to false gods—to &lt;b&gt;emptiness and nothingness.&lt;/b&gt; But we</english>
