Pray for the well-being of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be at peace. May there be well-being within your ramparts, peace in your citadels.” For the sake of my kin and friends, I pray for your well-being; for the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I seek your good. adapted from Psalm 122 Pray for the well-being of Jerusalem: May those who love you be at peace.

17 It came to pass at a time of drought that Rabbi Eliezer went before the congregation and said twenty-four prayers, but his prayers were not answered. Then Rabbi Akiva came forward and intoned: “Avinu Malkeinu, Hear our prayer and have mercy upon us.”

And his prayer was answered.

You spread out the heavens and established the earth; You are our God; there is none else. In truth You alone are our Sovereign God, as it is written: “Know then this day and take it to heart: the Eternal One is God in the heavens above and on the earth below; there is none else.” Eternal God, we face the morrow with hope made stronger by the vision of Your deliverance, a world where poverty and war are banished, where injustice and hate are gone. Teach us more and more to respond to the pain of others, to heed Your call for justice, that we may bring nearer the day when all the world shall be one. On that day the age-old dream shall come true. On that day, O God, You shall be One and Your Name shall be One.

Teach them faithfully to your children; speak of them in your home and on your way, when you lie down and when you rise up. Bind them as a sign upon your hand; let them be a symbol before your eyes; inscribe them on the doorposts of your house, and on your gates. Be mindful of all My mitzvot, and do them: so shall you consecrate yourselves to your God. I am your Eternal God who led you out of Egypt to be your God; I am your Eternal God.

Imagine ourselves, enslaved in Egypt. We watch our parents bending under the weight of stones and our children beaten by the taskmasters’ whips. Imagine hearing a call from Moses that we are to go free, and gathering at the city’s gates to embark upon a trek into an unknown wilderness. We arrive at the water’s edge, trembling as the Egyptians charged at us from the crest of the hills. Caught between the water and their chariots, imagine the seas parting and our struggle to the far shore. We look behind to see the waters close and realize that we have survived. Imagining this deliverance, we comprehend our ancestors’ joy and sing this song as they did:

43 OUR ACCOUNTING ;¤e«T v®B©,±bU UN’TANEH TOKEF ;e, vb,bu It is said that the words we are about to utter were born of the martyrdom of Rabbi Amnon of Mayence. He chose to die that his faith might live. Three days after his death, Rabbi Amnon appeared to a colleague in a dream and taught him the liturgical poem beginning “Let us proclaim the sacred power of this day....” And he ordered him to send it as remembrance and testimony to all Jewish communities. He believed that if we make the effort to turn, every force of goodness, within and without, will help us to escape that death of the heart which leads to sin. Year after year we shudder at the reality of this prayer. How many shall pass on, how many shall come to be; who shall live and who shall die. The words remind us of our changing lives and fortunes. Reflecting upon the tragedies and victories of this past year, we take account of our communal experiences as well as our own personal losses and joys. . . . These are days of reflection and of hope.

You are Judge and all power is with You. You write and You seal, You record and recount. You remember deeds long forgotten. You write in the book of our days and what is written there will be proclaimed in our lives for we are in Your hands. We are in awe and filled with dread.

Among the sounds of the Shofar, we yearn to hear a still small voice, the voice of angels who delcare: This is the Day of Judgment! All who dwell on earth stand arrayed before You! As the shepherd seeks the flock and counts the sheep as they pass under the staff, so do You number and consider every soul and set the bounds of every life, decreeing its destiny.

On Rosh HaShanah it is written, on Yom Kippur it is sealed: How many shall pass on, how many shall come to be; who shall live and who shall die; who shall see ripe age and who shall not; who shall perish by fire and who by water;

46 who by sword and who by beast; who by hunger and who by thirst; who by earthquake and who by plague; who by strangling and who by stoning; who shall be secure and who shall be driven; who shall be tranquil and who shall be troubled; who shall be poor and who shall be rich; who shall be humbled and who exalted. But we trust that repentance, prayer and tzedakah will temper the severity of the decree.

53 GENESIS 21:1-21 1 The Lord took note of Sarah as He had promised, and the Lord did for Sarah as He had spoken. 2 Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken. 3 Abraham gave his newborn son, whom Sarah had borne him, the name of Isaac. 4 And when his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as God had commanded him. 5 Now Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him. 6 Sarah said, “God has brought me laughter; everyone who hears will laugh with me.” 7 And she added, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would suckle children! Yet I have borne a son in his old age.” 8 The child grew up and was weaned, and Abraham held a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. 9 Sarah saw the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham playing. 10 She said to Abraham, “Cast out that slave-woman and her son, for the son of that slave shall not share in the inheritance with my son Isaac.” 11 The matter distressed Abraham greatly, for it concerned a son of his. 12 But God said to Abraham, “Do not be distressed over the boy or your slave; whatever Sarah tells you, do as she says, for it is through Isaac that offspring shall be continued for you. 13 As for the son of the slave-woman, I will make a nation of him, too, for he is your seed.” 14 Early next morning Abraham took some bread and a skin of water, and gave them to Hagar. He placed them over her shoulder, together with the child, and sent her away. And she wandered about in the wilderness of Beer-sheba. 15 When the water was gone from the skin, she left the child under one of the bushes, 16 and went and sat down at a distance, a bowshot away; for she thought, “Let me not look on as the child dies.” And sitting thus afar, she burst into tears. 17 God heard the cry of the boy, and an angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Fear not, for God has heeded the cry of the boy where he is. 18 Come, lift up the boy and hold him by the hand, for I will make a great nation of him.” 19 Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water. She went and filled the skin with water, and let the boy drink. 20 God was with the boy and he grew up; he dwelt in the wilderness and became a bowman. 21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran; and his mother got a wife for him from the land of Egypt.

GENESIS 22:1-19 1 Some time afterward, God put Abraham to the test. He said to him, “Abraham,” and he answered, “Here I am.” 2 And He said, “Take your son, your favored one, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the heights that I will point out to you.” 3 So early next morning, Abraham saddled his ass and took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and he set out for the place of which God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place from afar. 5 Then Abraham said to his servants, “You stay here with the ass. The boy and I will go up there; we will worship and we will return to you.” 6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and put it

55 on his son Isaac. He himself took the firestone and the knife; and the two walked off together. 7 Then Isaac said to his father Abraham, “Father!” And he answered, “Yes, my son.” And he said, “Here are the firestone and the wood; but where is the sheep for the burnt offering?” 8 And Abraham said, “God will see to the sheep for His burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them walked on together. 9 They arrived at the place of which God had told him. Abraham built an altar there; he laid out the wood; he bound his son Isaac; he laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 And Abraham picked up the knife to slay his son. 11 Then an angel of the Lord called to him from heaven: “Abraham! Abraham!” And he answered, “Here I am.” 12 And he said, “Do not raise your hand against the boy, or do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your favored one, from Me.” 13 When Abraham looked up, his eye fell upon a ram, caught in the thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering in place of his son. 14 And Abraham named that site Adonai-yireh, whence the present saying, “On the mount of the Lord there is vision.” 15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, 16 and said, “By Myself I swear, the Lord declares: Because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your favored one, 17 I will bestow My blessing upon you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and the sands on the seashore; and your descendants shall seize the gates of their foes. 18 All the nations of the earth shall bless themselves by your descen- dants, because you have obeyed My command.” 19 Abraham then returned to his servants, and they departed together for Beer-sheba; and Abraham stayed in Beer-sheba.

FROM FIRST SAMUEL I 1 There was a man from Ramathaim of the Zuphites, in the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah son of Jeroham son of Elihu son of Tohu son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. 2 He had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah; Peninnah had children, but Hannah was childless. 3 This man used to go up from his town every year to worship and to offer sacrifice to the Lord of Hosts at Shiloh. Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were priests of the Lord there. 4 One such day, Elkanah offered a sacrifice. He used to give portions to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters; 5 but to Hannah he would give one portion only – though Hannah was his favorite – for the Lord had closed her womb. 9 After they had eaten and drunk at Shiloh, Hannah rose. The priest Eli was sitting on the seat near the doorpost of the temple of the Lord. 10 In her wretchedness, she prayed to the Lord, weeping all the while. 11 And she made this vow: “O Lord of Hosts, if You will look upon the suffering of Your maidservant and will remember me and not forget Your maid- servant, and if You will grant Your maidservant a male child, I will dedicate him to the Lord for all the days of his life; and no razor shall ever touch his head.” 12 As she kept on praying before the Lord, Eli watched her mouth. 13 Now Hannah was praying in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice could not be heard. So Eli thought she was drunk. 14 Eli said to her, 58 “How long will you make a drunken spectacle of yourself? Sober up!” 15 And Hannah replied, “Oh no, my lord! I am a very unhappy woman. I have drunk no wine or other strong drink, but I have been pouring out my heart to the Lord. 16 Do not take your maidservant for a worthless woman; I have only been speaking all this time out of my great anguish and distress.” 17 “Then go in peace,” said Eli, “and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of Him.” 18 She answered, “You are most kind to your handmaid.” So the woman left, and she ate, and was no longer downcast. 19 Early next morning they bowed low before the Lord, and they went back home to Ramah. Elkanah knew his wife Hannah and the Lord remembered her. 20 Hannah conceived, and at the turn of the year bore a son. She named him Samuel, meaning, “I asked the Lord for him.” 21 And when the man Elkanah and all his household were going up to offer to the Lord the annual sacrifice and his votive sacrifice, 22 Hannah did not go up. She said to her hus- band, “When the child is weaned, I will bring him. For when he has appeared before the Lord, he must remain there for good.” 23 Her husband Elkanah said to her, “Do as you think best. Stay home until you have weaned him. May the Lord fulfill His word.” So the woman stayed home and nursed her son until she weaned him. 24 When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, along with three bulls, one ephah of flour, and a jar of wine. And though the boy was still very young, she brought him to the House of the Lord at Shiloh. 25 After slaughtering the bull, they brought the boy to Eli. 26 She said, “Please, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood here beside you and prayed to the Lord. 27 It was this boy I prayed for; and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him. 28 I, in turn, hereby lend him to the Lord. For as long as he lives he is lent to the Lord.” And they bowed low there before the Lord.

Jeremiah 31:1-16 1 Thus said the Lord: 2 The people escaped from the sword, Found favor in the wilderness; When Israel was marching homeward 3 The Lord revealed Himself to me of old. Eternal love I conceived for you then; Therefore I continue My grace to you. 4 I will build you firmly again, O Maiden Israel! Again you shall take up your timbrels and go forth to the rhythm of the dancers. 5 Again you shall plant vineyards on the hills of Samaria; Men shall plant and live to enjoy them. 6 For the day is coming when watchmen shall proclaim on the heights of Ephraim: Come, let us go up to Zion, to the Lord our God! 7 For thus said the Lord: Cry out in joy for Jacob, shout at the crossroads of the nations! Sing aloud in praise, and say: Save, O Lord, Your people, the remnant of Israel. 8 I will bring them in from the northland, gather them from the ends of the earth – the blind and the lame among them, those with child and those in labor – in a vast throng they shall return here. 9 They shall come with weeping, and with compassion will I guide them. I will lead them to streams of water, by a level road where they will not stumble. For I am ever a Father to Israel, Ephraim is My first-born. 10 Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, and tell it in the isles afar. Say: He who scattered Israel will gather them, and will guard them as a shepherd his flock. 11 For the Lord will ran- som Jacob, redeem him from one too strong for him. 12 They shall come and shout on the heights of Zion, radiant over the bounty of the Lord – over new grain and wine and oil, and over sheep and cattle. They shall fare like a watered garden, they shall never languish again. 13 Then shall maidens dance gaily, young men and old alike. I will turn their mourning to joy, I will comfort them and cheer them in their grief. 14 I will give the priests their fill of fatness,

60 and My people shall enjoy My full bounty – declares the Lord: 15 Thus said the Lord: A cry is heard in Ramah – wail- ing, bitter weeping – Rachel weeping for her children. She refuses to be comforted For her children, who are gone. 16 Thus said the Lord: Restrain your voice from weeping, your eyes from shedding tears; For there is a reward for your labor.

On this day of the world’s birth, we stand before You as chil- dren, praying that You treat us with a parent’s compassion. We look to You for mercy, gentleness and kindness. Our ancestors came before You on this day to seek Your love and goodness. You rule over all the earth. Your grandeur resounds throughout the world. We appeal to You as a merciful Ruler. May all our actions proclaim that the Eternal God of Israel, reigns over all. Blessed is the Sovereign God of all the earth, who hallows (the Sabbath) the House of Israel and the day of Remembrance.

REVELATION SHOFAROT ,urpua Adonai descended upon Mount Sinai in fire; smoke tumbled down the trembling mountain and the blare of the Shofar resounded. May You be present to us as You were at Sinai. Help us to know You when we strive to create the good and the beautiful, and when we work for justice and peace. The psalmist affirms: God stands revealed amid acclamation: the Eternal One, amid the sound of the shofar. The prophet declares: All you who dwell on earth, who inhabit the world, when the shofar is sounded, take heed! The Eternal God will cause the shofar to be sounded and stride forth with the stormwinds of the South. Thus, O God, will You shield Your people with peace. /oh¦n£j©rC k¥t¨r§G°h INg ,gUr§T kIe g¥nIJ '²h±h 'v¨T©t QUrC

70 ALL THE WORLD VAYE-ETAYU uh,thu

All the world shall come to serve Thee, And bless Thy glorious name, And Thy righteousness triumphant, The islands shall acclaim. Yea the peoples shall go seeking who knew Thee not before, And the ends of earth shall praise Thee, And tell Thy greatness o’er.

They shall build for Thee their altars, Their idols overthrown, And their graven gods shall shame them As they turn to Thee alone. They shall worship Thee at sunrise, And feel Thy kingdom’s might, And impart Thy understanding, To those astray in the night.

With the coming of Thy kingdom The hills will shout with song, And the islands laugh exultant, That they to God belong. And through all Thy congregations So loud Thy praise shall ring, That the utmost peoples, hearing, Shall hail Thee crowned King.
