Prayer for the Royal Family in Hebrew
הַנּוֹתֵן תְּשׁוּעָה לַמְּלָכִים וּמֶמְשָׁלָה לַנְּסִיכִים, מַלְכוּתוֹ מַלְכוּת כָּל־עוֹלָמִים. הוּא יְבָרֵךְ
OUR SOVEREIGN LORD, KING CHARLES,
OUR GRACIOUS QUEEN CAMILLA,
THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES,
AND ALL THE ROYAL FAMILY.
מֶלֶךְ מַלְכֵי הַמְּלָכִים בְּרַחֲמָיו, יְּחַיֵיהוּ, וְיִשְׁמְרֵהוּ, וּמִכָּל־צָרָה וְיָגוֹן יַצִילֵהוּ. וִיבָרֵךְ וְיִשְׁמֹר אֶת צְבָא הַמֶּלֶךְ. וְיִתֵּן בְּלִבּוֹ וּבְלֵב כָּל־יוֹעֲצָיו, רוּחַ חָכְמָה וּבִינָה, לְהַחֲזִיק שְׁלוֹם הַמַּלְכוּת, וְשַׁלְוַת עַמּוֹ, וְלַעֲשׂוֹת חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת עִם־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל. בְּיָמָיו, וּבְיָמֵינוּ, יִפְרֹשׂ אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם סֻכַּת שָׁלוֹם עַל־כָּל־יוֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל, וּבָא לְצִיּוֹן גּוֹאֵל. וְנֹאמַר אָמֵן.
Prayer for the Royal Family
He who gives salvation to kings and dominion to princes, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom – may He bless
OUR SOVEREIGN LORD, KING CHARLES,
OUR GRACIOUS QUEEN CAMILLA,
THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES,
AND ALL THE ROYAL FAMILY.
May the supreme King of kings in His mercy preserve the King in life, guard him and deliver him from all trouble and sorrow. May He bless and protect His Majesty’s Armed Forces. May He put a spirit of wisdom and understanding into his heart and into the hearts of all his counsellors, that they may uphold the peace of the realm, advance the welfare of the nation, and deal kindly and justly with all the House of Israel. In his days and in ours may our Heavenly Father spread the tabernacle of peace over all the dwellers on earth; and may the redeemer come to Zion; and let us say Amen.
The National Anthem In Hebrew
—שְׁמֹר מַלְכֵּנוּ
לְעוֹלָם יְחִי מַלְכֵּנוּ
—שְׁמֹר הַמֶּלֶךְ
שְׁלַח שָׁלוֹם בִּנְוֵהוּ
עֹז וְהָדָר עַטְּרֵהוּ
לָעַד הַמְשִׁילֵהוּ
—שְׁמֹר הַמֶּלֶךְ.
מִבְחַר בִּרְכָתְךָ—
לְהָרִיק עָלָיו הוֹאֵל
יְחִי הַמֶּלֶךְ
יָגֵן בְּעַד חֻקֵּינוּ
אָז יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ
וְנָשִׁיר בְּכָל מְאֹדֵנוּ
—שְׁמֹר הַמֶּלֶךְ.
The National Anthem
God save our gracious King!
Long live our noble King!
God save the King!
Send him victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the King.
Your choicest gifts in store
On him be pleased to pour,
Long may he reign.
May he defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the King.
