Kabbalah4All Transliteration Guidelines

a as in father

ai or ay as in aisle

e as in red

ei as in eight

i as in pizza

o as in no

oy as in toy

u as in tune

ch as in Bach in German (strong sound from the throat)

g as in give

tz as in lots

’ typically adds an “EH” sound after a consonant, this is known as a Shva Na orpronounced Shva as in the word “Sh’ma”.

- a dash is simply used to aid in pronounciation, usually if two like vowels follow eachother, as in the word “da-at.”

In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes falls somewhereelse in the word. In our transliteration, when the syllable falls somewhere else other than the lastsyllable, that stressed syllable will be underlined. Example: Melech.

Hebrew Rules

The following are some of the Hebrew rules you may notice in our siddur.

Kj¤l«¤n In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes fallssomewhere else in the word. Whenever a syllable other than the last is accented, a“meteg” (the vertical line under the first letter) will appear.

lÇk The “masoret” above the letter Chaf indicates that this is a Kamatz Katan, which ispronounced as “o”; in this example the word is “kol.”

Egœ§n §U ¦i The “rafe” above a letter indicates it is a Shva Na. This example is pronouncedyism’chu.Note that the rafe does not appear above the first letter of a word that has a Shvaas that is ALWAYS a Shva Na.

fh mildzTEHILIM 16

This psalm illustrates David’s humility beautifully. It is important that we realize that everything we have from our talents to our treasures are given to us by the Creator. True humilityis the fruit of this realization.

Michtam l’David, A Miktam of David,

shomreni El ki chasiti vach.Protect me, Almighty One, for I have sought refuge in You.

Amart Ladonai,I said to Hashem,

Adonai atah, You are my Lord,

tovati bal alecha.You are not obligated to benefit me.

Likdoshim asher ba-aretz hemah,But for the holy ones who are (buried) in the earth,

v’adirei kol cheftzi vam.and for the mighty, all my desires are because of them.

Yirbu atz’votam acher maharu,May their sorrows multiply, those who hurry after other gods,

bal asich niskeihem midam,I shall not pour out their libations of blood,

uval esa et sh’motamand I will not carry their names

al s’fatai.upon my lips.

Adonai m’nat chelki v’chosi, Hashem is my allotted portion and my cup,

atah tomich gorali.You guide my destiny.

Chavalim naflu li banimim,Portions have fallen to me in pleasant places,

af nachalat shaf-rah alai.indeed my heritage is beautiful to me.

Avarech et AdonaiI will bless Hashem Who

The Bar’chu calls us to prayer, it calls us to turn to the east and face our promised land, itcalls us to still the racing thoughts of our minds and to become present, it calls us toacknowledge that there is One Who is responsible for all the blessings in our lives.

rnyTHE SHEMA

The Shema is an affirmation of faith. It expresses our love for the Creator, and also serves asan ode to the divinity of the soul. Kabbalah teaches that the Shema is the acknowledgementof unity and connects us to Beriyah, the World of Creation. It brings the Creator’s Onenessinto our consciousness and reminds us that we must extend unconditional love to all. The

enlarged letters r and c form the word c¥r, which means witness. By saying the Shema, we

bear witness to the Creator’s unity as we declare it to the world. The first verse of Shema

connects us to the spiritual world of Zeir Anpin. l`xyi rny is Netzach and Hod, epidl` dedidedi is Chesed, Gevurah, and Tiferet, and cg` is the aspect of the unification of Malchut and

Zeir Anpin. Their union reveals the 13 Attributes of Mercy, which is also alluded to in the

gematria of cg` which is 13. The Shema is a very powerful tool for healing because the 248

words connect to the 248 parts of the human body and the 248 sparks of the human soul.

It is important to say each word clearly and not to run words together.We recite the first verse aloud while covering the eyes with the right hand.

dlcad xcqHAVDALAH SERVICE

The word “Havdalah” means “distinction”. The entire connection is to distinguish betweenthe Shabbat (the Festival) to which he have connected and the week that we are about toenter, both as an existence in time and as a feeling of existence. The greatest tool wehave for appreciating anything is the ability to distinguish and differentiate. When we seethings as rare and unique, they stand out as special, and somehow have their own placein the world. When Shabbat (or the Festival) is over, we mark the ending with Havdalahand recognize the beginning of a new week.

Rishon l’Tziyon hineh hinam,This first that come to Zion will announce: Behold they are here!

v’Lirushalayim m’vaser eten.and I will send a herald for Jerusalem.

Al tism’chi oyavti li,Do not rejoice over me my enemy,

ki nafalti kamti,for though I fell, I will rise,

ki eshev bachoshechthough I sit in darkness,

Adonai or li. Hashem is a light unto me.

Kumi ori ki va orech,Arise! Shine! For your light has come,

uchvod Adonaiand the glory of Hashem

alayich zarach.shines upon you.

Ki hineh hachoshechFor, behold, darkness

SEDER BIRKAT HALEVANAH dpald zkxa xcq

The Birkat HaLevanah should be recited after seven days pass from the molad.The latest time that it can be said is fifteen days after the molad.

During Tishrei, the Birkat HaLevanah is postponed until after Yom Kippur.

dpald zkxa xcqSEDER BIRKAT HALEVANAH

Rabbi Yochanan taught that one who blesses the new moon is regarded like one who greetsthe Shechinah. We recognize Hashem’s existence through miracles, revelations, and throughthe cycles of nature. The moon’s cycles are most apparent and we as Israel are likened to themoon, for at times we have suffered at the hands of others and our light has been dim like thenew moon and at other times we have shone brightly and gloriously like the full moon.

hi mildzTEHILIM 19

Through the contemplation of nature and study of Torah, we can recognize our Creator.However, only the Torah can guide us on how to attain spiritual fulfillment, as this psalmdeclares “The Torah of Hashem is perfect, it restores the soul.”

Lam’natze-ach mizmor l’David.For the conductor, a psalm by David.

Hashamayim m’sap’rim k’vod El,The heavens declare the glory of the Almighty One,

uma-aseh yadav magid haraki-a.and the firmament tells the work of His hands.

Yom l’yom yabi-a omer,Day following day utters speech,

v’lailah l’lailah y’chaveh da-at.and night following night conveys knowledge.

Ein omer v’ein d’varim, There is no speech and there are no words,

b’li nishma kolam.unheard is their sound.

B’chol ha-aretz yatza kum,But throughout the earth their line goes forth,

uvik-tzeh tevel mileihem,and their words reach the farthest ends of the world,

lashemesh sham ohel bahem.He has set up a tent for the sun in their midst.

V’hu k’chatan yotze mechupato,And it is like a groom coming forth from his bridal chamber,

yasis k’gibor larutz orach.rejoicing like a warrior to run the course.
