הֱיֵה נָא קָרוֹב לְשַׁוְעָתֵנוּ
יְהִי־נָא חַסְדְּךָ לְנַחֲמֵנוּ
כִּי אַתָּה יְהֹוָה הָעוֹנֶה בְּעֵת צָרָה
פּוֹדֶה וּמַצִּיל בְּכָל־עֵת צָרָה וְצוּקָה
Please be near to our cry
Let Your loving kindness console us
For You, God, are the One who answers in time of trouble
Who redeems and rescues in all times of trouble and distress
