And I lifted up my hands in righteousness and blessed the Great Set-Apart One, and spoke with the breath of my mouth, and with the tongue of flesh, which Elohim has made for the children of the flesh of men, that they should speak therewith, and He gave them breath and a tongue and a mouth that they should speak therewith:
2
‘Blessed be You, O Sovereign, King, Great and mighty in Your greatness, Sovereign of the whole creation of the heaven, King of kings and Elohim of the whole world. And Your power and kingship and greatness abide for ever and ever, And throughout all generations Your dominion: And all the heavens are Your throne for ever, And the whole earth Your footstool for ever and ever.
3
For You have made and You rule all things, And nothing is too hard for You, Wisdom departs not from the place of Your throne, Nor turns away from Your presence. And You know and see and hear everything, And there is nothing hidden from You [for You see everything]. 4. And now the mal’akhiym of Your heavens are guilty of trespass, And upon the flesh of men abides Your wrath until the great day of judgement. 5. And now, O Elohim and Sovereign and Great King, I implore and beseech You to fulfil my prayer, To leave me a posterity on earth, And not to destroy all the flesh of man, And make the earth without inhabitant, So that there should be an eternal destruction. 6. And now, my Sovereign, destroy from the earth the flesh which has aroused Your wrath, But the flesh of righteousness and uprightness establish as a plant of the eternal seed, And hide not Your face from the prayer of Your servant, O Sovereign.’ Kingdom.
