[RUBRIC:] Alternating versicle (*pʿox*) for the Eve of Sunday (*Kiwrakamut* [Entrance of Sunday]).

Behold, bless the Lord, all you servants of the Lord, who stand in the house of the Lord, and in the courts of our God. By night lift up your hands to the sanctuary, and bless the Lord. May the Lord bless us from Zion, [He] who made heaven and earth. I will give thanks to You, Lord, with my whole heart; before the angels I will sing psalms to You. For You heard the words of my mouth; I will worship toward Your holy temple, and give thanks to Your name, for Your mercy and Your truth. You have magnified Your holy name above all; in whatever day I call upon You, answer me swiftly, and multiply strength in my soul. Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to You, for they have heard the words of Your mouth, and let them bless Your ways. Great is the glory of the Lord; the Lord is high; He looks upon the lowly, and knows the haughty from afar.
