Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)

90 (Tefillah of Moshe, ish HaElohim) Adonoi, Thou hast been our ma’on (dwelling place) b’dor vador.

² Before the harim were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed eretz and the tevel (inhabited world), even from olam ad olam, Thou art El (G-d).

³ Thou turnest enosh to dakka (dust); and sayest, Shuvu, ye Bnei Adam.

⁴ For an elef shanim in Thy sight are but as yom etmol (yesterday) when it is past, and as an ashmurah (watch, division of time) in the lailah.

⁵ Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sheinah (sleep); in the boker they are like khatzir (grass) which withereth.

⁶ In the boker it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the erev it is cut down, and drieth up.

¹³ Shuvah, Hashem. Ad mosai? Have compassion on Thy avadim.

¹⁴ O satisfy us baboker with Thy chesed; that we may sing for joy and be glad kol yameinu (all our days).

¹⁵ Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen ra’ah.

¹⁶ Let Thy work appear unto Thy avadim, and Thy glory unto their banim.

¹⁷ And let the no’am (favor, delightfulness) of Adonoi Eloheinu be upon us; and establish Thou the ma’aseh yadeinu upon us; yes, the ma’aseh yadeinu establish Thou it.

[HAAZINU]

32 Give ear, O Shomayim, and I will speak; and hear, O Ha’Aretz, the words of my mouth.

² My teaching shall drop as the matar, my speech shall distil as the tal, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the esev;

³ Because I will publish the Shem of Hashem; ascribe ye greatness unto Eloheinu.

⁴ He is the Tzur, His po’al is tamim; for all His ways are mishpat; El Emunah and without avel (iniquity), tzaddik and yashar is He.

⁵ They have corrupted themselves, their mum is not His; the defect is in His banim; a dor ikesh u’petaltol (a perverse and crooked generation).

⁶ Do ye thus repay Hashem, O foolish people without chacham? Is not He Avicha that hath bought thee? Hath He not made thee, and established thee?

⁷ Remember the yemot olam, consider shenot dor v’dor: ask Avicha, and he will show thee; thy zekenim, and they will tell thee.

⁸ When HaElyon divided to the Goyim their nachalah, when He separated the Bnei Adam, He set the gevulot (borders) of the people according to the number of the Bnei Yisroel.

⁹ For Hashem’s chelek is His people; Ya’akov is the chevel (allotment) of His nachalah.

¹⁰ He found him in an eretz midbar, and in a barren and howling wilderness; He encircled him, He granted him discernment, He preserved him as the pupil of His eye.

¹¹ As a nesher stirreth up her ken (nest), fluttereth over her young, spreadeth her wings, taketh them up, beareth them on her wings,

¹² So Hashem alone did lead him, and there was no el nekhar (strange g-d) with him.

¹³ He made him ride on the high places of Eretz, that he might eat the tenuvot sadeh (increase of the fields); and He made to suckle him devash out of the rock, and shemen out of the flinty rock;

¹⁴ Butter of cattle, and cholov tzon, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with chittah (wheat) as fat as kidneys; and thou didst drink the pure dahm of the grape.

¹⁸ Of the Tzur that fathered thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten El that formed thee.

⁷ About all things, showing yourself a mofet of ma’asim tovim. In the hora’ah [of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach], show integrity, seriousness,

⁸ Along with dibur (speech) that is orthodox [in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach] and beyond reproach, that the mitnagged may be brought to bushah (shame), having no lashon hora to say against you.

¹¹ For the Chen v’Chesed of Hashem has appeared, bringing Yeshu’at Eloheynu to kol Bnei Adam,

¹² Instructing us to deny all that is frai (irreligious) and not of chasidus [in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach] and all that is ta’avanut, and to live with seichel and tzidkat Hashem and yirat Shomayim in the Olam Hazeh,

¹³ Awaiting the tikvah hameashsheret (the blessed hope), the appearing of the kavod HaEloheinu HaGadol and Moshieynu Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua,

¹⁴ Who gave his nefesh on behalf of us, that for us he might bring in the Geulah, redeeming us MI KOL AVONOTAV ("from all Israel’s sins” TEHILLIM 130:8; Isa 53:8), making tahor AM LI SEGULAH ("a people for My possession” SHEMOT 19:5), zealous for ma’asim tovim.

¹⁵ Preach these things, with words that give chizzuk (strengthening) and reprove with all authority. Let no one "write you off.”
