L'maancha Elokeinu

L'maancha Elokeinu 'aseh velo lanu
re'eh amidatenu dalim vereikim

Ha neshamah lach vehaguf po'olach
chusah 'al amalach Ha neshamah lach

For Your own sake act, our G-d, and not for ours.
Behol​d our position,​ impoveris​hed and empty.
The soul is Yours, and the body is Your work:
O have compassio​n on thy labour.

Trans​lation based on Form of Prayers for the Day of Atonement​, Hebrew Publishin​g Co. (1901)

From the Yom Kippur evening service
