Renew me, grown old from senseless sins, O most immaculate one./Present me untouched by all torments, and pray for me to the Master of all. I will lift, up my eyes to the hills. From where comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who watches over Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord shall protect you; the Lord is your shelter at your right hand. The sun shall not burn you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; the Lord shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and forevermore.

O my most holy ladyTheotokos, through thy holy and all-powerful prayers, banish from me, thy lowly and wretched servant, despondency, forgetfulness, folly, carelessness, and all filthy, evil, and blasphemous thoughts from my wretched heart and my darkened mind. And quench the flame of my passions, for I am poor and wretched, and deliver me from many and cruel memories and deeds, and free me from all their evil effects. For blessed art thou by all generations, and glorified is thy mosthonourablename unto the ages of ages. Amen. Rabbi Richard N. Levy’s On Wings of Light: The Hillel Siddur for Kabbalat Shabbat and Shabbat Evening features virtuoso translations of the standard prayers, translations that function more as riffs on the classic liturgy than straight renditions. It is especially good for a “learner’s minyan” or someone in search of a siddur to read while a congregation recites a standard liturgy that does not energize his/her prayer experience. It is truly meet to bless thee, theTheotokos, ever-blessed and most blameless, and Mother of our God. Morehonourablethan the Cherubim, and beyond compare more glorious than the Seraphim, who without corruptiongavestbirth to God the Word, the veryTheotokos, thee do we magnify.
