May His illustrious name become increasingly great and holy
In the world that He created according to His will,
and may he establish His kingdom
In your lifetime and in your days
and in the lifetime of all the house of Israel
Speedily and soon. And say amen

May His illustrious name be blessed always and forever.
Blessed, praised, glorified, exalted, extolled
Honoured, raised up and acclaimed
be the name of the Holy one blessed be He
beyond every blessing hymn, praise and consolation
that is uttered in the world. And let us say amen
Upon Israel, upon the teachers and their students
And all their students' students
And for all those who occupy themselves in the Torah
In this country
And in all other countries
May they and we be granted abundant peace
Grace, kindness and mercy
Long life and plentiful provisions and deliverance
From their Father in heaven and earth.
And say amen
May abundant peace from heaven, and life
Be upon us and upon all Israel, And say amen

May He who makes peace in his high places
In his mercy make peace
upon us and upon all Israel, And say amen
