ḤANOḴ 84

1 And I lifted up my hands in righteousness and baraḵ the Qadosh and Great One, and spoke with the breath of my mouth, and with the tongue of flesh, which Elohim has made for the children of the flesh of men, that they should speak with, and He gave them breath and a tongue and a mouth that they should speak with,

2 “Baruḵ are You, O Aḏon, Sovereign, great and mighty in Your greatness, Aḏon of the whole creation of the shamayim, Sovereign of sovereigns and Elohim of the whole world. And Your power and reign and greatness abide forever and ever, and throughout all generations. Your dominion, and all the shamayim are Your throne forever, and the whole earth Your footstool forever and ever.

3 “For You have made and You rule all, and no matter is too hard for You. Wisdom does not depart from the place of Your throne, nor turn away from Your presence. And You know and see and hear all matters, and there is none hidden from You for You see all.

4 “And now the messengers of Your shamayim are guilty of trespass, and upon the flesh of men Your wrath abides until the great day of judgment.

5 “And now, O Elohim and Aḏon and Great Sovereign, I implore and pray to fulfill my prayer, to leave me a posterity on earth, and not destroy all the flesh of man, and make the earth without inhabitant, so that there should be an eternal destruction.

6 “And now, Aḏonai, destroy from the earth the flesh which has aroused Your wrath, but the flesh of righteousness and uprightness establish as a plant of the eternal seed, and do not hide Your face from the prayer of Your servant, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.”
