118 Guardian of a holy people, preserve the remnant of a holy people; let not a holy people perish, who repeat the threefold sanctification to the Holy One.

O thou who art reconciled by prayers and conciliated by supplications, be thou reconciled and conciliated to an afflicted generation, for there is none to help.

Our Father, our King, be gracious to us and answer us, for we have no merits; deal charitably and kindly with us and save us.

We know not what to do, but our eyes are upon thee. Remember thy mercy and thy kindness, O Lord, for they are eternal. May thy kindness rest on us, O Lord, as our hope rests on thee. O mind not our former iniquities; may thy compassion hasten to our aid, for we are brought very low. Take pity on us, O Lord, take pity on us, for we are exceedingly sated with contempt. When in wrath, remember to be merciful. He knows what we are made of, remembering that we are but dust. Help us, our saving God, for the sake of thy glorious name; rescue us and pardon our sins for thy name’s sake.

Glorified and sanctified be God's great name throughout the world which he has created according to his will. May he establish his kingdom in your lifetime and during your days, and within the life of the entire house of Israel, speedily and soon; and say, Amen.

May his great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.

Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored, adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be he, beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.

The following paragraph is said on Mondays and Thursdays, except on Rosh Ḥodesh, Erev Pesaḥ, Tish‘ah b'Av, Erev Yom Kippur, Ḥanukkah, the 14th and 15th of Adar and Adar Sheni.

O God who art slow to anger and abounding in kindness and truth, hide not thy face from us. Have pity on thy people, O Lord, and save us from all evil. We have sinned against thee, O Lord; forgive us, O God, in thy great mercy.
