Be'Rosh Hashana yikateivun, uv'Yom Tzom Kippur yechateimun.
Kama ya'avrun, ve'chama yibareiun, mi yichyeh, u'mi yamut. Mi ve'kitzo u'mi lo ve'kitzo. Mi vamayim, u'mi va'esh. Mi va'cherev u'mi va'chayah. Mi va'raav, u'mi va'tzama. Mi va'raash, u'mi vamagefa. Mi va'chanika u'mi va'sekila. Mi yanuch, u'mi yanua. Mi yishaket, umi yitareif. Mi yishalev, u'mi yityasar. Mi yeani, u'mi ye'asher. Mi yishapel, u'mi yarum. U'teshuva, u'tefila, u'zedaka ma'avirin et roa ha'gezeira. | בְּראֹשׁ הַשָּׁנָה יִכָּתֵבוּן, וּבְיוֹם צוֹם כִּפּוּר יֵחָתֵמוּן.
כַּמָּה יַעַבְרוּן וְכַמָּה יִבָּרֵאוּן, מִי יִחְיֶה וּמִי יָמוּת. מִי בְקִצּוֹ וּמִי לא בְקִצּוֹ. מִי בַמַּיִם, וּמִי בָאֵשׁ. מִי בַחֶרֶב, וּמִי בַחַיָּה. מִי בָרָעָב, וּמִי בַצָּמָא. מִי בָרַעַשׁ, וּמִי בַמַּגֵּפָה. מִי בַחֲנִיקָה, וּמִי בַסְּקִילָה. מִי יָנוּחַ, וּמִי יָנוּעַ. מִי יִשָּׁקֵט, וּמִי יִטָּרֵף. מִי יִשָּׁלֵו, וּמִי יִתְיַסָּר. מִי יֵעָנִי, וּמִי יֵעָשֵׁר. מִי יִשָּׁפֵל, וּמִי יָרוּם. וּתְשׁוּבָה וּתְפִלָּה וּצְדָקָה מַעֲבִירִין אֶת רעַ הַגְּזֵרָה |
Translation:On Rosh Hashanah it is written,
On Yom Kippur it is sealed, How many shall pass away, And how many shall be born, Who shall live and who shall die, Who shall complete his years, And who shall not complete his years, Who shall die by fire and who by water, Who by the sword and who by a wild beast, Who by famine and who by third, Who by earthquake and who by pestilence, Who by strangling and who by stoning, Who shall be at rest and who shall wander, Who shall be serene and who shall be disturbed, Who shall be at ease and who shall be afflicted, Who shall be poor and who shall be rich, Who shall be humbled and who shall be exalted. But penitence, prayer, and deeds of mercy annul the severity of the judgment. Translation from the Mahzor for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur by Ben-Zion Bokser (1959), in the public domain | |
Information:Part of the U'Netanneh Tokef prayer composed circa 12th century.
