Siddur Part 10 YoSer

Appreciated! You are the Sacred One, our God, Ruler of all existence,
“Shaping light and creating darkness,
making peace and creating everything.” (Yesha`ya 44:7)
The one who illuminates the land and all who live on it,
the One who perpetually renews the act of creation every day.
“How numerous are Your works, You made all of them with wisdom,
Your possessions fill the land.” (Tehillim 104:24)
The exalted Ruler, the idea of Whom existed alone
at the beginning of time,
the One who is worthy of praises, glorification, magnification,
and exceedingly good since the beginning of the world.
Our Ruler, God of the world,
have compassion on us with Your abundant mercies.
Master of our strength, Rock of our fortress,
defender of our salvation, and a fortress for our sake.
Appreciated God of great knowledge,
having prepared and made the brilliance of the sun,
having shaped goodness in honor of the idea of You,
having placed luminaries surrounding Your strength,
the leaders of the sacred hosts, the exalted of God,
continuously recounting the sanctity of the One.
Sacred One, our God, You will make Yourself appreciated
in the heavens above and on the earth below,
and upon every praise of Your handiwork,
and the luminaries which You formed – they will glorify You!
You will make Yourself forever appreciated, our Rock, our Ruler,
our Liberator, creating sacred ones.
The idea of You will be forever raised in praise, our Ruler,
forming servants who serve by standing at the top of the world
and sounding their voice in unison
with the words of the living God, Ruler of all existence.
All are beloved, all are bright with clarity, all are mighty,
reverentially doing the will of their creator with love.
All accept upon themselves the “guiding yoke”
of heavenly sovereignty from each other,
giving each other permission to declare the sanctity of their Rock
with a settled spirit, with clear speech, and pure breath.
All answer as one and reverently declare,
“Sacred! Sacred! Sacred! is the Sacred One of hosts,
Whose glory fills the entire land!” (Isaiah 6:3)
In unison, the sublime orbits and the lifeforces of the Temple
raise themselves up opposite each other,
praising and declaring,
“The glory of the Sacred One
is appreciated from its place!” (Ezekiel 3:12)
They will offer melodies to the blessed God,
they will sing songs and make their praises heard by God,
the ruling life and being,
for the One alone does mighty deeds, making innovations,
sowing righteousness, sprouting salvation,
Master of wonders, perpetually renewing
the act of creation every day.
As it says, “To the maker of the great lights,
for the kindness of the One is eternal!” (Tehillim 136:7)
You established the luminaries to bring the world joy.
Appreciated! You are the Sacred One, shaping the luminaries!
