Translation

Freedom shall He proclaim
for man and woman
and protect you like
the pupil of the eye
Pleasant will be your
reputation never to cease
Rest and be content
of the Sabbath day

Seek my Temple and my Hall
and show me a sign of salvation
Plant a branch within my vineyard
turn to the outcry of my people!

Tread the press in Bozrah
and also Babylon
which overpowered
Smash my foes
with wrathful anger
hear my voice
on the day I call

O God let bloom
on the desert-like mountain
myrtle, acacia,
cypress, and box tree
To the exhorters
and to the scrupulous
give peace as
flowing as a river

Crush my foes O jealous God
with melting heart and grief
May we open our mouth and fill it
our tongue sing Your joyful song

Let your soul know Torah
then it will be
a crown on your head
Observe the precepts
of your Holy One
observe your holy Sabbath
