Text Translation:
He will proclaim freedom for all his children / and will keep you as the apple of his eye
Pleasant is your name and will not be destroyed / repose and rest on the Sabbath day
Seek my sanctuary and my home / give me a sign of deliverance
Plant a vine in my vineyard / look to my people, hear their laments
Tread the wine-press in Bozrah / and in Babylon that city of might
Crush my enemies in anger and fury / on the day when I cry, hear my voice
Plant, Oh God, in the mountain waste / Fir and acacia, myrtle and elm
Give to those who teach and to those who obey / abundance peace, like the flow of a river
Repel my enemies, oh zealous God / fill their hearts with fear and despair
Then we shall open our mouths / and fill our tongues with Your praise
Know wisdom, that your soul may live / and it shall be a diadem for your brow
Keep the commandment of your Holy One / observe the Sabbath, your sacred day.
