„He who blessed our fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, may He bless the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our God, from the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea to the approach of the Aravah, on land, in the air, and at sea. May the Lord cause our enemies who rise against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, blessed be He, preserve and rescue our soldiers from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and send blessing and success in all the work of their hands. May He subdue our foes beneath them and crown them with the crown of salvation and the wreath of victory. And may there be fulfilled in them the verse: "For the Lord your God is He who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you." And let us say: Amen.”
