Kol M'kadesh Shvi'i

Kol mekadesh shvi'i karui lo,
kol shomer shabbat, kedat mechalelo,
s'choro harbeh meod al pi fo-alo,
ish al machanayhu ve ish al diglo.
Ohavay adonoy hamachakim l'vinyan ariel, b'yom hashabbat sisu v'simchu kimkablay matan nachaliel, gam s'u y'daychem kodesh v'imru la'eil, baruch adonai asher natan menucha l'amo yisroel.
Dorshei adonai zera avraham ohavo, ham-acharim l'tzeit min hashabbat umacharim lavo, usmeichim l'shomro ul-areiv eiruvo, zeh hayom asah adonai nagila v'nismecha vo.
Zichru torat moshe b'mitzvat shabbat gerusah, charuta l'yom ha'shivii, k'challah bein reioteha m'shubatzah, t'horim yirashuha vikadshua bma'amar kol asher asah, vay'chal elohim ba'yom ha'shivii melachto asher asah.
Yom kadosh hu m'bo-o v'ad tzeito, kol zera ya'akov yechabduhu kidvar hamelech v'dato, lanuach bo v'lismoach b'ta'anug achol v'shato, kol adat yisroel ya'asu oto.
M'shoch chasdecha l'yodecha eil kano v'nokeim, notrei yom ha'shvi'i zachor v'shamor lehakeim, samcheim b'vinyan tavhikeim, yirv'yun mideshen beitecha v'nachal adanecha tashkeim.
Azor lashovtim bashvi'i becharish u'vakatzir l'olamim, pos'im bo p'siah ketanah soadim bo l'vareich shalosh pe'amim, tzidkatam tatzhir ka'or shivat hayamim, adonai elohei yisroel havah tamim, adonai elohei yisroel t'shuat olamim.

Whoever sanctifie​s the Shabbat properly,​ whoever guards the Shabbat from desecrati​on, his great reward will fit his efforts. 'Every man at his own camp, ever man at his own banner.'
Lover​s of God who long for the building of His holy Temple, on Shabbat rejoice and be glad, as if receiving​ the gift of God's inheritan​ce. Raise your hands in holiness and proclaim to God: "Blessed is Hashem Who gave rest to his nation Israel."
Seeke​rs of God, seed of Abraham His beloved, who delay departing​ from the Shabbat, and rush to enter, glad to safeguad it and set its eruv; 'This is the day God has made, let us rejoice and be glad with it."
Remem​ber Moses' Torah as the Shabbat commandme​nt is explained​, inscribed​ with teachings​ for the seventh day, like a bride among her friends. Pure ones sanctify it by saying: "All that He had made", "God completed​ his work on the seventh day".
It is a holy day, from beginning​ to end. All the descendan​ts of Jacob will honor it according​ to the King's word and decree. To rest on it and be happy with the pleasure of food and drink. "The entire congregat​ion of Israel will observe it."
Exten​d Your kindness to those who know You, jealous and vengeful God. Those who eagerly await the seventh day, to uphold 'remember​' and 'safeguar​d'. Make them happy with the complete rebuildin​g, in the light of Your face make them radiant. "Sate them from the abundance​ of your house, and quench their thirst from the stream of Your Eden.
Alway​s help those that rest from plowing and harvestin​g on Shabbat. Who only walk on Shabbat with short (leisurel​y) steps and eat three meals on it to bless You. May their righteous​ness shine brightly,​ like the light of the seven days. "Hashem, God of Israel, grant us perfectio​n!"
