בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ
אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ, מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם,

וּבְמֹשֶׁה עַבְדּוֹ, וּבְיִשְׂרָאֵל עַמּוֹ,
וּבִנְבִיאֵי הָאֱמֶת וָצֶֽדֶק.

Translation:

Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, King of the universe, who hast chosen good prophets, and hast found pleasure in their words which were spoken in truth. Blessed art thou, O Lord, who hast chosen the Law, and Moses thy servant, and Israel thy people, and prophets of truth and righteousness.
