Translation:May I journey toward peace,
May my footsteps be guided towards peace, May I be supported in peace May I be protected from any enemy or ambush along the way May it be Your will, my God May I journey toward peace, May my footsteps be guided towards peace, May I be supported in peace May I be protected from any enemy or ambush along the way Blessed are You, who hears prayer | |
Information:The Traveller's Prayer is said when setting out on a journey, traditionally after the onset of the journey or at the moment of departing city limits. An early variant of the prayer can be found in the Talmud Bavli (Berachot 29b-30a). This shortened version of the prayer is inspired by Shai Tsabari's rendition, which like the version in the Talmud (and unlike the modern standard text) is in the first person singular rather than plural.
The translation is inspired by Aharon Varady's translation on OpenSiddur.org. | |
