Siddur Bedtime Shema

Level
View
These levels are learning stages, not valid short services. Reaching the end of a level does not mean you have fulfilled the obligation of tefillah — it means you have learned that much of it. Keep davening the full service from a printed siddur or your app, and use the levels to decide what you are working on saying by heart.

How to use this. Pick a service and a level. Everything above that level is hidden, so you only see what you are working on now. Tap known on a prayer once you can say it without the transliteration; the bar at the top tracks the level. Tap Hide translit to test yourself. Tap any line to highlight it and keep your place. Levels are ordered by halachic weight, not page order. Two weeks per level is a normal pace.
  1. Level 1 — Start Here. Modeh Ani, washing, Asher Yatzar, the Torah blessings, and the first paragraph of Shema. Shema is a Torah obligation and the Torah blessings gate every word of Torah you say all day, so these come before anything long.
  2. Level 2 — The Amidah Frame. Blessings 1–3 and 17–19, plus the bowing and the three steps. Do not stop here when davening: an Amidah said in part is not an Amidah.
  3. Level 3 — The Amidah Middle. The thirteen requests. The longest single push in the project. Finishing this means you can daven Mincha.
  4. Level 4 — Tefillin and Tzitzit. Short texts, Torah-level mitzvot, a lot of physical choreography. Have someone show you once.
  5. Level 5 — Shema and Its Blessings. Barchu, Yotzer Or, Ahavat Olam, all three paragraphs, Emet V'Yatziv. Finishing this means you can daven Arvit.
  6. Level 6 — Morning Blessings. The fifteen. They all open with the same eight words, so your reading speed jumps here.
  7. Level 7 — Pesukei DeZimrah Core, and Aleinu. Baruch She'amar, Ashrei, Yishtabach. A legitimate short version of that section.
  8. Level 8 — Full Pesukei DeZimrah, and Tachanun. Hodu, the psalms, Az Yashir, Uva L'Tzion.
  9. Level 9 — Everything Else. The Beraita, Kaddish, Shir Shel Yom, Torah reading.

Upon Arising

Modeh AniL1
Say it immediately upon waking, before washing.
The siddur's reasoning: you would not lie in bed in the presence of a human king, and certainly not before God. Saying Modeh Ani makes you aware of His presence and gets you up. It contains no Divine Name, which is why it may be said before washing.
מוֹדֶה אֲנִי לְפָנֶיךָ מֶלֶךְ חַי וְקַיָּם,
Modeh ani l'faneicha melech chai v'kayam,
I offer thanks to You, living and eternal King,
שֶׁהֶחֱזַרְתָּ בִּי נִשְׁמָתִי בְּחֶמְלָה, רַבָּה אֱמוּנָתֶךָ.
shehechezarta bi nishmati b'chemla, raba emunatecha.
for You have mercifully restored my soul within me; Your faithfulness is great.
Order of Washing the HandsL1
Take the cup in the right hand, pass it to the left, and pour over the entire right hand to the wrist. Take the cup in the right hand and pour over the entire left. Repeat twice more, so each hand is washed three times in alternating sequence. Dry the hands.
It is forbidden to mention God's Name in a blessing, or to utter words of Torah, before washing. On Tisha B'Av and Yom Kippur, wash only until the knuckles. Stand while reciting the Morning Blessings.
Al Netilat YadayimL1
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו, וְצִוָּנוּ עַל נְטִילַת יָדָיִם.
Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav, v'tzivanu al netilat yadayim.
who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the washing of the hands.
Asher YatzarL1
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר יָצַר אֶת הָאָדָם בְּחָכְמָה,
Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher yatzar et ha'adam b'chochma,
who has formed man in wisdom,
וּבָרָא בוֹ נְקָבִים נְקָבִים, חֲלוּלִים חֲלוּלִים.
uvara vo n'kavim n'kavim, chalulim chalulim.
and created within him numerous orifices and cavities.
גָּלוּי וְיָדוּעַ לִפְנֵי כִסֵּא כְבוֹדֶךָ, שֶׁאִם יִפָּתֵחַ אֶחָד מֵהֶם אוֹ יִסָּתֵם אֶחָד מֵהֶם,
Galui v'yadua lifnei chisei ch'vodecha, she'im yipateach echad mehem o yisatem echad mehem,
It is revealed and known before the Throne of Your Glory that if but one of them were to be opened, or one of them blocked,
אִי אֶפְשַׁר לְהִתְקַיֵּם אֲפִלּוּ שָׁעָה אֶחָת.
i efshar l'hitkayem afilu sha'a echat.
it would be impossible to exist even for a short while.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, רוֹפֵא כָל בָּשָׂר וּמַפְלִיא לַעֲשׂוֹת.
Baruch atah Adonai, rofei chol basar umafli la'asot.
Blessed are You, Lord, who heals all flesh and performs wonders.
Elokai N'shamaL6
אֱלֹהַי, נְשָׁמָה שֶׁנָּתַתָּ בִּי טְהוֹרָה הִיא.
Elohai, n'shama shenatata bi t'hora hi.
My God, the soul which You have given within me is pure.
אַתָּה בְרָאתָהּ, אַתָּה יְצַרְתָּהּ, אַתָּה נְפַחְתָּהּ בִּי, וְאַתָּה מְשַׁמְּרָהּ בְּקִרְבִּי,
Atah v'ratah, atah y'tzartah, atah n'fachtah bi, v'atah m'shamrah b'kirbi,
You have created it, You have formed it, You have breathed it into me, and You preserve it within me.
וְאַתָּה עָתִיד לִטְּלָהּ מִמֶּנִּי, וּלְהַחֲזִירָהּ בִּי לֶעָתִיד לָבֹא.
V'atah atid lit'lah mimeni, ul'hachazirah bi le'atid lavo.
You will eventually take it from me, and restore it within me in the Time to Come.
כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהַנְּשָׁמָה בְקִרְבִּי, מוֹדֶה אֲנִי לְפָנֶיךָ יְיָ אֱלֹהַי וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתַי,
Kol z'man shehan'shama v'kirbi, modeh ani l'faneicha Adonai elohai velohei avotai,
So long as the soul is within me, I offer thanks to You, Lord my God and God of my fathers,
רִבּוֹן כָּל הַמַּעֲשִׂים, אֲדוֹן כָּל הַנְּשָׁמוֹת.
ribon kol hama'asim, adon kol han'shamot.
Master of all works, Lord of all souls.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, הַמַּחֲזִיר נְשָׁמוֹת לִפְגָרִים מֵתִים.
Baruch atah Adonai, hamachazir n'shamot lifgarim meitim.
Blessed are You, Lord, who restores souls to dead bodies.

Eilu d'varim she'ein lahem shiur: hapei'ah, v'habikurim, v'harei'ayon, ug'milut chasadim, v'talmud Torah.
These are the precepts for which no fixed measure is prescribed: the corner of the field, the first fruits, the pilgrimage offerings, deeds of kindness, and the study of Torah.
אֵלּוּ דְבָרִים שֶׁאָדָם אוֹכֵל פֵּרוֹתֵיהֶם בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה, וְהַקֶּרֶן קַיֶּמֶת לוֹ לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא, וְאֵלּוּ הֵן:

bringing peace between man and his fellow and between husband and wife. And the study of Torah is equivalent to them all.

Blessing on the Tzitzit

Tallit KatanL4
Stand and hold the tzitzit in the right hand (left-handed people hold them in the left). Recite the blessing, then kiss the tzitzit before releasing them.
Every day while dressing, before putting on the tallit katan, examine the tzitzit to make sure they are not torn, especially the parts lying on the corners and the coils. On weekdays, untangle the threads one from another before reciting the blessing. One who wears a tallit gadol for the morning prayer should not recite a blessing over the tallit katan.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו, וְצִוָּנוּ עַל מִצְוַת צִיצִת.
Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav, v'tzivanu al mitzvat tzitzit.
who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the mitzvah of tzitzit.

Order of Putting On the Tallit

Barchi NafshiL4
Stand with the folded tallit on the right shoulder, the four tzitzit in front. Examine the tzitzit while reciting this.
It is the Chabad custom to don the tallit and tefillin before Ma Tovu.
בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת יְיָ, יְיָ אֱלֹהַי גָּדַלְתָּ מְּאֹד, הוֹד וְהָדָר לָבָשְׁתָּ.
Barchi nafshi et Adonai, Adonai elohai gadalta m'od, hod v'hadar lavashta.
My soul, bless the Lord! Lord my God, You are greatly exalted; You have garbed Yourself with majesty and splendor.
עֹטֶה אוֹר כַּשַּׂלְמָה, נוֹטֶה שָׁמַיִם כַּיְרִיעָה.
Oteh or kasalma, noteh shamayim kayri'a.
You enwrap Yourself with light as with a garment; You spread the heavens as a curtain.
L'hit'atef BaTzitzitL4
Unfold the tallit and open it wide, kiss its upper edge, and swing it around from in front of you until it hangs behind you. Begin the blessing at this point. While reciting it, place the tallit over the head and upper body.
Bear in mind that God commanded us to enwrap ourselves in it, to remind us to perform all His commandments.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו, וְצִוָּנוּ לְהִתְעַטֵּף בַּצִּיצִת.
Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav, v'tzivanu l'hit'atef batzitzit.
who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us to enwrap ourselves with tzitzit.
The Wrap and Ma YakarL4
While concluding the blessing: gather the two right corners, raise them, and place them over the left shoulder; gather the two left corners and bring them to the left side of the chest. All four tzitzit are now on the left side, two in front and two behind.
It is the Chabad custom to cover the face with the upper part of the tallit only down to the eyes, not down to the mouth. Remain enwrapped as long as it takes to walk four cubits, about three seconds, and recite Ma Yakar. Then drape the tallit over the head, shoulders, and back for the entire time of prayer.
מַה יָּקָר חַסְדְּךָ אֱלֹהִים, וּבְנֵי אָדָם בְּצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ יֶחֱסָיוּן.
Ma yakar chasd'cha Elohim, uv'nei adam b'tzel k'nafeicha yechesayun.
How precious is Your kindness, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
יִרְוְיֻן מִדֶּשֶׁן בֵּיתֶךָ, וְנַחַל עֲדָנֶיךָ תַשְׁקֵם.
Yirv'yun mideshen beitecha, v'nachal adaneicha tashkem.
They shall be satiated with the delight of Your House, and You will give them to drink from the river of Your bliss.
כִּי עִמְּךָ מְקוֹר חַיִּים, בְּאוֹרְךָ נִרְאֶה אוֹר.
Ki imcha m'kor chayim, b'orcha nir'eh or.
For with You is the source of life; in Your light we see light.
מְשֹׁךְ חַסְדְּךָ לְיֹדְעֶיךָ, וְצִדְקָתְךָ לְיִשְׁרֵי לֵב.
M'shoch chasd'cha l'yod'echa, v'tzidkat'cha l'yishrei lev.
Bestow Your kindness upon those who know You, and Your righteousness on the upright in heart.

Order of Putting On the Tefillin

Shel YadL4
Place the arm tefillin directly on the left biceps (left-handed: right biceps). Turn it slightly toward the body so that when the arm is lowered it faces the heart. Before tightening it, recite the blessing, mindful that it applies also to the head tefillin.
Stand when putting on tefillin. Not worn on Shabbat, festivals, or Chol HaMoed. Be careful that nothing interposes between the tefillin and the arm or head. Do not interrupt between the arm tefillin and the head tefillin.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֺתָיו, וְצִוָּנוּ לְהָנִיחַ תְּפִלִּין.
Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav, v'tzivanu l'haniach t'filin.
who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us to put on tefillin.
Winding the ArmL4
Tighten the knot. Wind the strap twice around the biceps, over the part of the tefillin through which the strap passes, forming the shape of a shin. Then wind the strap seven times around the forearm, and wrap the remaining strap around the hand and palm.
Be careful that the end of the knot, which is in the shape of a yud, is not shifted from the arm tefillin.
Shel RoshL4
Place the head tefillin above the forehead, centered exactly above the face. The knot, which is in the shape of a daled, should be centered at the top of the nape of the neck.
If you spoke between the arm tefillin and the head tefillin, recite Baruch atah Adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu al mitzvat tefillin on the head tefillin. This applies only if you spoke about matters unrelated to the donning. It is proper not to interrupt at all.
Finishing the HandL4

Aromimcha Adonai ki dilitani, v'lo simachta oy'vai li.
I exalt You, Lord, for You have uplifted me, and did not allow my enemies to rejoice over me.
יְיָ אֱלֹהָי, שִׁוַּעְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ וַתִּרְפָּאֵנִי.
Adonai elohai, shivati eilecha vatirpa'eini.
Lord, my God, I cried out to You, and You healed me.
יְיָ הֶעֱלִיתָ מִן שְׁאוֹל נַפְשִׁי, חִיִּיתַנִי מִיָּרְדִי בוֹר.
Adonai he'elita min sh'ol nafshi, chiyitani miyord'i vor.
Lord, You have brought up my soul from the grave; You have kept me alive, that I should not descend to the pit.
זַמְּרוּ לַיְיָ חֲסִידָיו, וְהוֹדוּ לְזֵכֶר קָדְשׁוֹ.
Zamru LaShem chasidav, v'hodu l'zecher kodsho.
Sing to the Lord, you His pious ones, and praise His holy Name.
כִּי רֶגַע בְּאַפּוֹ, חַיִּים בִּרְצוֹנוֹ, בָּעֶרֶב יָלִין בֶּכִי וְלַבֹּקֶר רִנָּה.
Ki rega b'apo, chayim birtzono, ba'erev yalin bechi v'laboker rina.
For His wrath endures but for a moment, when He is conciliated there is life; when one retires at night weeping, joy will come in the morning.
וַאֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי בְשַׁלְוִי, בַּל אֶמּוֹט לְעוֹלָם.
Va'ani amarti v'shalvi, bal emot l'olam.
In my security I thought, I shall never falter.
יְיָ בִּרְצוֹנְךָ הֶעֱמַדְתָּה לְהַרְרִי עֹז, הִסְתַּרְתָּ פָנֶיךָ הָיִיתִי נִבְהָל.
Adonai birtzoncha he'emadta l'harari oz, histarta fanecha hayiti nivhal.
Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; when You concealed Your countenance, I was alarmed.
אֵלֶיךָ יְיָ אֶקְרָא, וְאֶל אֲדֹנָי אֶתְחַנָּן.
Eilecha Adonai ekra, v'el Adonai etchanan.
I called to You, O Lord, and I made supplication to the Lord.
מַה בֶּצַע בְּדָמִי בְּרִדְתִּי אֶל שָׁחַת, הֲיוֹדְךָ עָפָר, הֲיַגִּיד אֲמִתֶּךָ.
Ma betza b'dami b'ridti el shachat, hayod'cha afar, hayagid amitecha.
What profit is there in my death, in my going down to the grave? Can dust praise You? Can it proclaim Your truth?
שְׁמַע יְיָ וְחָנֵּנִי, יְיָ הֱיֵה עֹזֵר לִי.
Shema Adonai v'choneini, Adonai heyeh ozer li.
Lord, hear and be gracious to me; Lord, be a help to me.
הָפַכְתָּ מִסְפְּדִי לְמָחוֹל לִי, פִּתַּחְתָּ שַׂקִּי וַתְּאַזְּרֵנִי שִׂמְחָה.
Hafachta misp'di l'machol li, pitachta saki vat'az'reini simcha.
You have turned my mourning into dancing; You have loosened my sackcloth and girded me with joy.
לְמַעַן יְזַמֶּרְךָ כָבוֹד וְלֹא יִדֹּם, יְיָ אֱלֹהַי לְעוֹלָם אוֹדֶךָּ.

Ki LaShem ham'lucha, umoshel bagoyim.
For sovereignty is the Lord's, and He rules over the nations.
וְעָלוּ מוֹשִׁיעִים בְּהַר צִיּוֹן לִשְׁפֹּט אֶת הַר עֵשָׂו, וְהָיְתָה לַיְיָ הַמְּלוּכָה.

Touch the hand tefillin at uk'shartam l'ot al yadecha, the head tefillin at v'hayu l'totafot bein einecha, and touch the fingertips to the lips.
וּכְתַבְתָּם עַל מְזֻזוֹת בֵּיתֶךָ וּבִשְׁעָרֶיךָ.

And you shall write them upon the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.
וְהָיָה אִם שָׁמֹעַ תִּשְׁמְעוּ אֶל מִצְוֺתַי אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוֶּה אֶתְכֶם הַיּוֹם, לְאַהֲבָה אֶת יְיָ אֱלֹהֵיכֶם וּלְעָבְדוֹ בְּכָל לְבַבְכֶם וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁכֶם.
V'haya im shamoa tishm'u el mitzvotai asher anochi m'tzaveh etchem hayom, l'ahava et Adonai eloheichem ul'ovdo b'chol l'vavchem uv'chol nafsh'chem.
And it will be, if you will diligently obey My commandments which I enjoin upon you this day, to love the Lord your God and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
וְנָתַתִּי מְטַר אַרְצְכֶם בְּעִתּוֹ, יוֹרֶה וּמַלְקוֹשׁ, וְאָסַפְתָּ דְגָנֶךָ וְתִירֹשְׁךָ וְיִצְהָרֶךָ.

And I will give grass in your fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be sated.

Hisham'ru lachem pen yifteh l'vavchem, v'sartem va'avadtem elohim acheirim v'hishtachavitem lahem.
Take care lest your heart be lured away, and you turn astray and worship alien gods and bow down to them.
וְחָרָה אַף יְיָ בָּכֶם, וְעָצַר אֶת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְלֹא יִהְיֶה מָטָר, וְהָאֲדָמָה לֹא תִתֵּן אֶת יְבוּלָהּ, וַאֲבַדְתֶּם מְהֵרָה מֵעַל הָאָרֶץ הַטֹּבָה אֲשֶׁר יְיָ נֹתֵן לָכֶם.

For then the Lord's wrath will flare up against you, and He will close the heavens so that there will be no rain and the earth will not yield its produce, and you will swiftly perish from the good land which the Lord gives you.
וְשַׂמְתֶּם אֶת דְּבָרַי אֵלֶּה עַל לְבַבְכֶם וְעַל נַפְשְׁכֶם, וּקְשַׁרְתֶּם אֹתָם לְאוֹת עַל יֶדְכֶם, וְהָיוּ לְטוֹטָפֹת בֵּין עֵינֵיכֶם.

Therefore, place these words of Mine upon your heart and upon your soul, and bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for a reminder between your eyes.
Touch the hand tefillin and head tefillin again at these words, and touch the fingertips to the lips.
וְלִמַּדְתֶּם אֹתָם אֶת בְּנֵיכֶם לְדַבֵּר בָּם, בְּשִׁבְתְּךָ בְּבֵיתֶךָ וּבְלֶכְתְּךָ בַדֶּרֶךְ, וּבְשָׁכְבְּךָ וּבְקוּמֶךָ.
V'limadtem otam et b'neichem l'daber bam, b'shivt'cha b'veitecha uv'lecht'cha vaderech, uv'shochb'cha uv'kumecha.
You shall teach them to your children, to speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road, when you lie down and when you rise.

And you shall inscribe them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
לְמַעַן יִרְבּוּ יְמֵיכֶם וִימֵי בְנֵיכֶם עַל הָאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע יְיָ לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶם לָתֵת לָהֶם, כִּימֵי הַשָּׁמַיִם עַל הָאָרֶץ.
L'ma'an yirbu y'meichem vimei v'neichem al ha'adama asher nishba Adonai la'avoteichem latet lahem, kimei hashamayim al ha'aretz.
so that your days and the days of your children may be prolonged on the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give to them for as long as the heavens are above the earth.
Hold the tzitzit in the right hand as well now, and look at them. Keep them until v'nechmadim la'ad. At the three starred words, pass the tzitzit over the eyes and kiss them.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְיָ אֶל מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹר: דַּבֵּר אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם,

to make for themselves fringes on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to attach a thread of blue on the fringe of each corner.
וְהָיָה לָכֶם לְצִיצִת, וּרְאִיתֶם אֹתוֹ וּזְכַרְתֶּם אֶת כָּל מִצְוֺת יְיָ וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם,

and you will not follow after your heart and after your eyes by which you go astray,
לְמַעַן תִּזְכְּרוּ וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֶת כָּל מִצְוֺתָי, וִהְיִיתֶם קְדֹשִׁים לֵאלֹהֵיכֶם.
L'ma'an tizk'ru va'asitem et kol mitzvotai, vihyitem k'doshim leloheichem.
so that you may remember and fulfill all My commandments, and be holy to your God.
אֲנִי יְיָ אֱלֹהֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִי אֶתְכֶם מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם לִהְיוֹת לָכֶם לֵאלֹהִים, אֲנִי יְיָ אֱלֹהֵיכֶם.

All nineteen blessings must be said, in order, every time. There is no valid partial Amidah. If your level setting is hiding some of them, keep reading those from your siddur or app while you work on memorizing the rest. Interruptions of any form are forbidden from here until the end. Follows immediately from ga'al Yisrael with no interruption at all.

Tachanun

When Tachanun Is OmittedL8
Skip the whole section on Shabbat, Rosh Chodesh, all festivals and the days around them, Chanukah, Purim, Tu BiShvat, Lag BaOmer, the whole month of Nisan, from Rosh Chodesh Sivan through Isru Chag, Tisha B'Av, and Tu B'Av.
Also omitted in a house of mourning and on a day when a circumcision takes place in the synagogue. This also determines whether you strike your chest at chatanu and fashanu in the Amidah. If you are unsure, watch whether the congregation says it.
Nefilat ApayimL8
Sit. Lean forward and rest your face on your left forearm, since the tefillin are on the left arm. Cover the face.
The name means falling on the face. Done only in a room where a Torah scroll is present; alone at home, say the words sitting upright without leaning.
רַחוּם וְחַנּוּן חָטָאתִי לְפָנֶיךָ, יְיָ מָלֵא רַחֲמִים רַחֵם עָלַי וְקַבֵּל תַּחֲנוּנָי.
Rachum v'chanun chatati l'faneicha, Adonai malei rachamim rachem alai v'kabel tachanunai.
Merciful and gracious One, I have sinned before You. Lord, full of mercy, have mercy on me and accept my supplications.
יְיָ אַל בְּאַפְּךָ תוֹכִיחֵנִי, וְאַל בַּחֲמָתְךָ תְיַסְּרֵנִי.
Adonai al b'ap'cha tochicheini, v'al bachamat'cha t'yas'reini.
Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger, nor chastise me in Your wrath.
חָנֵּנִי יְיָ כִּי אֻמְלַל אָנִי, רְפָאֵנִי יְיָ כִּי נִבְהֲלוּ עֲצָמָי.
Choneini Adonai ki umlal ani, r'fa'eini Adonai ki nivhalu atzamai.
Be gracious to me, Lord, for I am feeble; heal me, Lord, for my bones tremble.
וְנַפְשִׁי נִבְהֲלָה מְאֹד, וְאַתָּה יְיָ עַד מָתָי.
V'nafshi nivhala m'od, v'atah Adonai ad matai.
My soul is greatly terrified; and You, Lord, how long?
שׁוּבָה יְיָ חַלְּצָה נַפְשִׁי, הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי לְמַעַן חַסְדֶּךָ.
Shuva Adonai chal'tza nafshi, hoshi'eini l'ma'an chasdecha.
Return, Lord, release my soul; deliver me for the sake of Your kindness.
Sit up now.
Shomer YisraelL8
Sit upright.
שׁוֹמֵר יִשְׂרָאֵל, שְׁמֹר שְׁאֵרִית יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאַל יֹאבַד יִשְׂרָאֵל, הָאוֹמְרִים שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל.

Shomer goy echad, sh'mor sh'erit am echad, v'al yovad goy echad, ham'yachadim shimcha Adonai eloheinu Adonai echad.
Guardian of a unique nation, guard the remnant of a unique people, and let not that nation perish, who proclaim Your Oneness: the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
וַאֲנַחְנוּ לֹא נֵדַע מַה נַּעֲשֶׂה, כִּי עָלֶיךָ עֵינֵינוּ.
Va'anachnu lo neda ma na'aseh, ki alecha eineinu.
We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.
זְכֹר רַחֲמֶיךָ יְיָ וַחֲסָדֶיךָ, כִּי מֵעוֹלָם הֵמָּה.
Z'chor rachameicha Adonai vachasadecha, ki me'olam hema.
Remember Your mercies, Lord, and Your kindnesses, for they are from of old.
יְהִי חַסְדְּךָ יְיָ עָלֵינוּ, כַּאֲשֶׁר יִחַלְנוּ לָךְ.
Y'hi chasd'cha Adonai aleinu, ka'asher yichalnu lach.
May Your kindness be upon us, Lord, as we have placed our hope in You.

Torah Reading

Mondays and ThursdaysL9
On Mondays, Thursdays, Rosh Chodesh, fast days and festivals, the Torah is read here, after Tachanun and before Ashrei.
Three people are called up on a Monday or Thursday. As a beginner you are unlikely to be called up before you know the blessings; if you are, say so rather than guess. The blessings over the Torah are short and worth learning early, but they belong to the person called up, not to the congregation.

Ashrei and Uva L'Tzion

AshreiL8
Said again here. Full text as printed in Pesukei DeZimrah above.
This is the second of the three daily recitations of Ashrei; the third is at Mincha.
Uva L'TzionL8
Contains a Kedushah. With a minyan the Kedushah verses are said aloud together.
וּבָא לְצִיּוֹן גּוֹאֵל, וּלְשָׁבֵי פֶשַׁע בְּיַעֲקֹב, נְאֻם יְיָ.
Uva l'Tziyon go'el, ul'shavei fesha b'Yaakov, n'um Adonai.
A redeemer shall come to Zion, and to those in Jacob who repent of transgression, says the Lord.
וַאֲנִי זֹאת בְּרִיתִי אוֹתָם אָמַר יְיָ, רוּחִי אֲשֶׁר עָלֶיךָ וּדְבָרַי אֲשֶׁר שַׂמְתִּי בְּפִיךָ,
Va'ani zot b'riti otam amar Adonai, ruchi asher alecha ud'varai asher samti b'ficha,
And as for Me, this is My covenant with them, says the Lord: My spirit which is upon you and My words which I have put in your mouth
לֹא יָמוּשׁוּ מִפִּיךָ וּמִפִּי זַרְעֲךָ וּמִפִּי זֶרַע זַרְעֲךָ, אָמַר יְיָ, מֵעַתָּה וְעַד עוֹלָם.
lo yamushu mipicha umipi zar'acha umipi zera zar'acha, amar Adonai, me'atah v'ad olam.
shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your children, nor from the mouth of your children's children, says the Lord, from now to eternity.
וְאַתָּה קָדוֹשׁ יוֹשֵׁב תְּהִלּוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל.
V'atah kadosh yoshev t'hilot Yisrael.
And You, holy One, are enthroned upon the praises of Israel.
וְקָרָא זֶה אֶל זֶה וְאָמַר: קָדוֹשׁ קָדוֹשׁ קָדוֹשׁ יְיָ צְבָאוֹת, מְלֹא כָל הָאָרֶץ כְּבוֹדוֹ.
V'kara zeh el zeh v'amar: kadosh kadosh kadosh Adonai tz'va'ot, m'lo chol ha'aretz k'vodo.
And one called to the other and said: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is filled with His glory.
וַתִּשָּׂאֵנִי רוּחַ, וָאֶשְׁמַע אַחֲרַי קוֹל רַעַשׁ גָּדוֹל: בָּרוּךְ כְּבוֹד יְיָ מִמְּקוֹמוֹ.
Vatisa'eini ruach, va'eshma acharai kol ra'ash gadol: baruch k'vod Adonai mim'komo.
Then a wind lifted me up, and I heard behind me a great roaring sound: Blessed be the glory of the Lord from its place.
יְיָ יִמְלֹךְ לְעֹלָם וָעֶד.
Adonai yimloch l'olam va'ed.
The Lord will reign forever and ever.
יְיָ אֱלֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיִשְׂרָאֵל אֲבוֹתֵינוּ, שָׁמְרָה זֹּאת לְעוֹלָם לְיֵצֶר מַחְשְׁבוֹת לְבַב עַמֶּךָ, וְהָכֵן לְבָבָם אֵלֶיךָ.
Adonai elohei Avraham Yitzchak v'Yisrael avoteinu, shomra zot l'olam l'yetzer machsh'vot l'vav amecha, v'hachen l'vavam eilecha.
Lord, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel our fathers, keep this forever as the desire of the heart of Your people, and direct their heart to You.
וְהוּא רַחוּם יְכַפֵּר עָוֺן וְלֹא יַשְׁחִית, וְהִרְבָּה לְהָשִׁיב אַפּוֹ, וְלֹא יָעִיר כָּל חֲמָתוֹ.
V'hu rachum y'chaper avon v'lo yashchit, v'hirba l'hashiv apo, v'lo ya'ir kol chamato.
And He, being compassionate, pardons iniquity and does not destroy; time and again He turns away His anger, and does not arouse all His wrath.
כִּי אַתָּה אֲדֹנָי טוֹב וְסַלָּח, וְרַב חֶסֶד לְכָל קֹרְאֶיךָ.
Ki atah Adonai tov v'salach, v'rav chesed l'chol kor'echa.

sheló sam chelkeinu kahem, v'goraleinu k'chol hamonam.

לְהַעֲבִיר גִּלּוּלִים מִן הָאָרֶץ, וְהָאֱלִילִים כָּרוֹת יִכָּרֵתוּן, לְתַקֵּן עוֹלָם בְּמַלְכוּת שַׁדַּי,
l'ha'avir gilulim min ha'aretz, v'ha'elilim karot yikaretun, l'taken olam b'malchut Shadai,
to banish idolatry from the earth, and false gods will be utterly destroyed, to perfect the world under the sovereignty of the Almighty,
וְכָל בְּנֵי בָשָׂר יִקְרְאוּ בִשְׁמֶךָ, לְהַפְנוֹת אֵלֶיךָ כָּל רִשְׁעֵי אָרֶץ.

יַכִּירוּ וְיֵדְעוּ כָּל יוֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל, כִּי לְךָ תִּכְרַע כָּל בֶּרֶךְ, תִּשָּׁבַע כָּל לָשׁוֹן.
Yakiru v'yed'u kol yosh'vei tevel, ki l'cha tichra kol berech, tishava kol lashon.
Then all the inhabitants of the world will recognize and know that every knee should bend to You, every tongue should swear by You.
לְפָנֶיךָ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ יִכְרְעוּ וְיִפֹּלוּ, וְלִכְבוֹד שִׁמְךָ יְקָר יִתֵּנוּ,

and they will all take upon themselves the yoke of Your kingship, and You will reign over them forever and ever,
כִּי הַמַּלְכוּת שֶׁלְּךָ הִיא, וּלְעוֹלְמֵי עַד תִּמְלֹךְ בְּכָבוֹד, כַּכָּתוּב בְּתוֹרָתֶךָ: יְיָ יִמְלֹךְ לְעֹלָם וָעֶד.

Opening

How Mincha WorksL2
Three parts: Ashrei → Amidah → Aleinu, with Tachanun between the last two on most days.
Mincha reuses material you already know from Shacharit, which is why it unlocks early. Time window: from half an hour after midday until sunset. If you are short on time, the Amidah is the part you cannot drop.
AshreiL7
Concentrate on Poteach et yadecha. If you say that verse without attention, go back and say it again. Tefillin are normally off by Mincha, so there is no touching here.
Psalm 145 with two verses added at the front and one at the end. Alphabetical, but there is no verse for the letter nun; that is intentional. Said three times every day.
אַשְׁרֵי יוֹשְׁבֵי בֵיתֶךָ, עוֹד יְהַלְלוּךָ סֶּלָה.
Ashrei yoshvei veitecha, od y'hal'lucha sela.
Happy are those who dwell in Your House; they will yet praise You forever.
אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁכָּכָה לּוֹ, אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁיְיָ אֱלֹהָיו.
Ashrei ha'am shekacha lo, ashrei ha'am sheAdonai elohav.
Happy is the people whose lot is thus; happy is the people whose God is the Lord.
תְּהִלָּה לְדָוִד: אֲרוֹמִמְךָ אֱלוֹהַי הַמֶּלֶךְ, וַאֲבָרְכָה שִׁמְךָ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד.
T'hila l'David: Aromimcha elohai hamelech, va'avarcha shimcha l'olam va'ed.
A psalm of praise by David: I will exalt You, my God the King, and bless Your Name forever.
בְּכָל יוֹם אֲבָרְכֶךָּ, וַאֲהַלְלָה שִׁמְךָ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד.
B'chol yom avar'checa, va'ahal'la shimcha l'olam va'ed.
Every day I will bless You, and extol Your Name forever.

Amidah

Before You BeginL2
Take three steps back, then three steps forward. Recite quietly but audibly, standing with feet together. Face Jerusalem.
All nineteen blessings must be said, in order, every time. There is no valid partial Amidah. If your level setting is hiding some of them, keep reading those from your siddur or app while you work on memorizing the rest. Interruptions of any form are forbidden from here until the end. Preceded by Ashrei and Half Kaddish. On a public fast the chazzan adds Aneinu.
אֲדֹנָי שְׂפָתַי תִּפְתָּח, וּפִי יַגִּיד תְּהִלָּתֶךָ.
Adonai s'fatai tiftach, ufi yagid t'hilatecha.
My Lord, open my lips, and my mouth shall declare Your praise.

Opening

How Arvit WorksL5
V'hu Rachum → Barchu → two blessings → Shema → two blessings → Amidah → Aleinu.
Same shape as Shacharit: blessings before the Shema, the Shema, blessings after, then the Amidah. Two blessings come after in the evening rather than one. Said after nightfall. The Amidah is not repeated aloud by the chazzan.
V'hu RachumL5
Stand.
וְהוּא רַחוּם יְכַפֵּר עָוֺן וְלֹא יַשְׁחִית, וְהִרְבָּה לְהָשִׁיב אַפּוֹ, וְלֹא יָעִיר כָּל חֲמָתוֹ.
V'hu rachum y'chaper avon v'lo yashchit, v'hirba l'hashiv apo, v'lo ya'ir kol chamato.
And He, being compassionate, pardons iniquity and does not destroy; time and again He turns away His anger, and does not arouse all His wrath.
יְיָ הוֹשִׁיעָה, הַמֶּלֶךְ יַעֲנֵנוּ בְיוֹם קָרְאֵנוּ.
Adonai hoshi'a, hamelech ya'aneinu v'yom kor'einu.
Lord, deliver us; may the King answer us on the day we call.
BarchuL5
Bow at Barchu, straighten at Adonai. Requires a minyan; praying alone, skip it.
בָּרְכוּ אֶת יְיָ הַמְבֹרָךְ.
Chazzan: Barchu et Adonai ham'vorach.
Bless the Lord who is blessed.
בָּרוּךְ יְיָ הַמְבֹרָךְ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד.
All: Baruch Adonai ham'vorach l'olam va'ed.
Blessed be the Lord who is blessed for all eternity.

Borei yom valaila, golel or mip'nei choshech v'choshech mip'nei or,
He creates day and night, rolls away light before darkness and darkness before light,
וּמַעֲבִיר יוֹם וּמֵבִיא לָיְלָה, וּמַבְדִּיל בֵּין יוֹם וּבֵין לָיְלָה, יְיָ צְבָאוֹת שְׁמוֹ.
uma'avir yom umevi laila, umavdil bein yom uvein laila, Adonai tz'va'ot sh'mo.
causes day to pass and brings on night, and divides between day and night; the Lord of hosts is His Name.

El chai v'kayam, tamid yimloch aleinu l'olam va'ed.

Ahavat OlamL5
The second blessing before the Shema. At the end, gather the tzitzit if you are wearing a tallit katan.
Shorter than the morning version and it closes differently: ohev amo Yisrael, not habocher b'amo Yisrael b'ahava.
אַהֲבַת עוֹלָם בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל עַמְּךָ אָהַבְתָּ, תּוֹרָה וּמִצְוֺת, חֻקִּים וּמִשְׁפָּטִים אוֹתָנוּ לִמַּדְתָּ.
Ahavat olam beit Yisrael amcha ahavta, Torah umitzvot, chukim umishpatim otanu limadta.
With everlasting love You have loved the House of Israel Your people; Torah and mitzvot, statutes and laws You have taught us.
עַל כֵּן יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ, בְּשָׁכְבֵנוּ וּבְקוּמֵנוּ נָשִׂיחַ בְּחֻקֶּיךָ,
Al ken Adonai eloheinu, b'shochveinu uv'kumeinu nasiach b'chukecha,
Therefore, Lord our God, when we lie down and when we rise we will speak of Your statutes,

Ki hem chayeinu v'orech yameinu, uvahem nehgeh yomam valaila.
For they are our life and the length of our days, and we will meditate on them day and night.
וְאַהֲבָתְךָ אַל תָּסִיר מִמֶּנּוּ לְעוֹלָמִים.
V'ahavat'cha al tasir mimenu l'olamim.
And may You never remove Your love from us.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, אוֹהֵב עַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל.
Baruch atah Adonai, ohev amo Yisrael.
Blessed are You, Lord, who loves His people Israel.

Shema

The ShemaL1
Recite the first verse aloud, with your right hand covering your eyes. Say Baruch shem in an undertone.
No tefillin at night, so there is no touching at uk'shartam. Level 1 is the first paragraph only, through uvish'arecha. Paragraphs two and three come at Level 5.
שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל, יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ, יְיָ אֶחָד.
Shema Yisrael, Adonai eloheinu, Adonai echad.
Hear, O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One.
בָּרוּךְ שֵׁם כְּבוֹד מַלְכוּתוֹ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד.
Baruch shem k'vod malchuto l'olam va'ed.
Blessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom for ever and ever.
וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת יְיָ אֱלֹהֶיךָ, בְּכָל לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל מְאֹדֶךָ.
V'ahavta et Adonai elohecha, b'chol l'vavcha uv'chol nafsh'cha uv'chol m'odecha.
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
וְהָיוּ הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיּוֹם עַל לְבָבֶךָ.
V'hayu had'varim ha'eileh asher anochi m'tzav'cha hayom al l'vavecha.
And these words which I command you today shall be upon your heart.
וְשִׁנַּנְתָּם לְבָנֶיךָ וְדִבַּרְתָּ בָּם, בְּשִׁבְתְּךָ בְּבֵיתֶךָ וּבְלֶכְתְּךָ בַדֶּרֶךְ, וּבְשָׁכְבְּךָ וּבְקוּמֶךָ.
V'shinantam l'vanecha v'dibarta bam, b'shivt'cha b'veitecha uv'lecht'cha vaderech, uv'shochb'cha uv'kumecha.
You shall teach them thoroughly to your children, and you shall speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road, when you lie down and when you rise.
וּקְשַׁרְתָּם לְאוֹת עַל יָדֶךָ, וְהָיוּ לְטֹטָפֹת בֵּין עֵינֶיךָ.
Uk'shartam l'ot al yadecha, v'hayu l'totafot bein einecha.
You shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for a reminder between your eyes.
וּכְתַבְתָּם עַל מְזֻזוֹת בֵּיתֶךָ וּבִשְׁעָרֶיךָ.
Uch'tavtam al m'zuzot beitecha uvish'arecha.
And you shall write them upon the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.
Level 1 ends here. Paragraphs two and three follow at Level 5, exactly as printed in the Shacharit Shema.

Blessings After the Shema

Emet V'EmunahL5
The first blessing after the Shema. Do not pause between eloheichem and emet.
The evening parallel to Emet V'Yatziv. Both close with ga'al Yisrael.
אֱמֶת וֶאֱמוּנָה כָּל זֹאת, וְקַיָּם עָלֵינוּ, כִּי הוּא יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְאֵין זוּלָתוֹ, וַאֲנַחְנוּ יִשְׂרָאֵל עַמּוֹ.
Emet ve'emuna kol zot, v'kayam aleinu, ki hu Adonai eloheinu v'ein zulato, va'anachnu Yisrael amo.
All this is true and faithful, and binding upon us: that He is the Lord our God and there is none other, and we are Israel His people.
הַפּוֹדֵנוּ מִיַּד מְלָכִים, מַלְכֵּנוּ הַגּוֹאֲלֵנוּ מִכַּף כָּל הֶעָרִיצִים.

He redeems us from the hand of kings; our King who delivers us from the grip of all the tyrants.
הָעֹשֶׂה גְדֹלוֹת עַד אֵין חֵקֶר, וְנִפְלָאוֹת עַד אֵין מִסְפָּר.
Ha'oseh g'dolot ad ein cheker, v'nifla'ot ad ein mispar.

הַשָּׂם נַפְשֵׁנוּ בַּחַיִּים, וְלֹא נָתַן לַמּוֹט רַגְלֵנוּ.
Hasam nafsheinu bachayim, v'lo natan lamot ragleinu.
He has kept us alive, and has not allowed our feet to falter.
הָעֹשֶׂה לָּנוּ נִסִּים וּנְקָמָה בְּפַרְעֹה, אוֹתוֹת וּמוֹפְתִים בְּאַדְמַת בְּנֵי חָם.
Ha'oseh lanu nisim un'kama b'Far'oh, otot umoftim b'admat b'nei Cham.
He performed for us miracles and vengeance upon Pharaoh, signs and wonders in the land of the children of Ham.
וַיּוֹצֵא אֶת עַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל מִתּוֹכָם לְחֵרוּת עוֹלָם.
Vayotzei et amo Yisrael mitocham l'cheirut olam.
And He brought His people Israel out from among them to everlasting freedom.
וְרָאוּ בָנָיו גְּבוּרָתוֹ, שִׁבְּחוּ וְהוֹדוּ לִשְׁמוֹ, וּמַלְכוּתוֹ בְרָצוֹן קִבְּלוּ עֲלֵיהֶם.
V'ra'u vanav g'vurato, shib'chu v'hodu lishmo, umalchuto v'ratzon kib'lu aleihem.
His children beheld His might; they extolled and gave thanks to His Name, and willingly accepted His sovereignty.
מֹשֶׁה וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לְךָ עָנוּ שִׁירָה בְּשִׂמְחָה רַבָּה, וְאָמְרוּ כֻלָּם:
Moshe uv'nei Yisrael l'cha anu shira b'simcha raba, v'amru chulam:
Moses and the children of Israel with great joy raised their voices in song to You, and they all proclaimed:
מִי כָמֹכָה בָּאֵלִם יְיָ, מִי כָּמֹכָה נֶאְדָּר בַּקֹּדֶשׁ, נוֹרָא תְהִלֹּת עֹשֵׂה פֶלֶא.
Mi chamocha ba'elim Adonai, mi kamocha nedar bakodesh, nora t'hilot oseh fele.
Who is like You among the supernal beings, O Lord! Who is like You, resplendent in holiness, awesome in praise, performing wonders!
מַלְכוּתְךָ רָאוּ בָנֶיךָ, בּוֹקֵעַ יָם לִפְנֵי מֹשֶׁה, זֶה אֵלִי עָנוּ וְאָמְרוּ: יְיָ יִמְלֹךְ לְעֹלָם וָעֶד.
Malchut'cha ra'u vanecha, bokei'a yam lifnei Moshe, zeh eli anu v'amru: Adonai yimloch l'olam va'ed.
Your children beheld Your sovereignty as You split the sea before Moses. This is my God, they exclaimed, and declared: The Lord shall reign forever and ever.
וְנֶאֱמַר: כִּי פָדָה יְיָ אֶת יַעֲקֹב, וּגְאָלוֹ מִיַּד חָזָק מִמֶּנּוּ.
V'ne'emar: ki fada Adonai et Yaakov, ug'alo miyad chazak mimenu.
And it is said: For the Lord has redeemed Jacob and delivered him from a power mightier than he.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, גָּאַל יִשְׂרָאֵל.
Baruch atah Adonai, ga'al Yisrael.
Blessed are You, Lord, who delivered Israel.
HashkiveinuL5
The second blessing after the Shema. Said sitting.
This one has no morning equivalent. It asks for protection through the night, which is why it appears only in the evening.
הַשְׁכִּיבֵנוּ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ לְשָׁלוֹם, וְהַעֲמִידֵנוּ מַלְכֵּנוּ לְחַיִּים טוֹבִים וּלְשָׁלוֹם.

Ufros aleinu sukat sh'lomecha, v'takneinu b'eitza tova milfaneicha, v'hoshi'einu l'ma'an sh'mecha.
Spread over us the shelter of Your peace, set us aright with good counsel from before You, and deliver us for the sake of Your Name.
וְהָגֵן בַּעֲדֵנוּ, וְהָסֵר מֵעָלֵינוּ אוֹיֵב, דֶּבֶר וְחֶרֶב וְרָעָב וְיָגוֹן, וְהָסֵר שָׂטָן מִלְּפָנֵינוּ וּמֵאַחֲרֵינוּ.
V'hagen ba'adeinu, v'haser me'aleinu oyev, dever v'cherev v'ra'av v'yagon, v'haser satan milfaneinu ume'achareinu.
Shield us, remove from us enemy, plague, sword, famine and sorrow, and remove the adversary from before us and behind us.
וּבְצֵל כְּנָפֶיךָ תַּסְתִּירֵנוּ, כִּי אֵל שׁוֹמְרֵנוּ וּמַצִּילֵנוּ אָתָּה, כִּי אֵל מֶלֶךְ חַנּוּן וְרַחוּם אָתָּה.

Amidah

Before You BeginL2
Take three steps back, then three steps forward. Recite quietly but audibly, standing with feet together. Face Jerusalem.
All nineteen blessings must be said, in order, every time. There is no valid partial Amidah. If your level setting is hiding some of them, keep reading those from your siddur or app while you work on memorizing the rest. Interruptions of any form are forbidden from here until the end. Preceded by Hashkiveinu and Half Kaddish. Not repeated aloud by the chazzan. On Motzaei Shabbat insert Atah chonantanu into the fourth blessing.
אֲדֹנָי שְׂפָתַי תִּפְתָּח, וּפִי יַגִּיד תְּהִלָּתֶךָ.

ki hamalchut shel'cha hi, ul'olmei ad timloch b'chavod, kakatuv b'toratecha: Adonai yimloch l'olam va'ed.
for sovereignty is Yours, and to all eternity You will reign in glory, as it is written in Your Torah: The Lord will reign forever and ever.
