Liturgy zu Dewarim 30:78

Deuteronomy 30:1-11
And it will come to pass when all these things come upon you, the blessing and the curse which I have set before you, that you will take it to heart in the midst of all the nations to which Adonoy, your God, has driven you. Then you will return unto Adonoy, your God, and obey His voice according to everything that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul. And then Adonoy, your God, will return your captivity and have compassion upon you; and He will return and gather you from among all the peoples where Adonoy, your God, has scattered you. Even if your scattered ones will be dispersed unto the outermost parts of heaven, from there Adonoy, your God, will gather you, and from there, He will take you. And Adonoy, your God, will bring you into the land which your forefathers possessed, and you will possess it; and He will do good to you and increase you even more than your fathers. Adonoy, your God, will circumcise your heart, and the hearts of your descendants, to love Adonoy, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live. Then Adonoy, your God, will set all these curses upon your enemies, and upon those who hate you, who have pursued you. But you will repent and listen to the voice of Adonoy, and perform all His commandments that I command you this day. And Adonoy, your God, will cause you to prosper in all your activities, in the fruit of your womb, in the fruit of your cattle, and the fruit of your soil, for good; for Adonoy will rejoice over you for goodness as He rejoiced over your fathers. For you will then obey the voice of Adonoy, your God, to observe His commandments and His decrees that are written in this Seifer Torah; for you will then return to Adonoy, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul.

Master of the Universe! just as our father, Abraham suppressed his compassion to do Your will with his whole heart, so may your compassion suppress your anger against us; and may your compassion prevail over your [other] attributes.¹²This refers to God’s attribute of stern justice. Act with us Adonoy, our God, kindly and with compassion. In your great goodness turn away your fierce anger from your people, and from your city, from your land and from your territorial heritage. Fulfill for us, Adonoy, our God, the promise you made in your Torah, through your servant, Moses, as it says, I will recall my covenant with Jacob, also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I recall; and I will recall the land.¹³Leviticus 26:42. And it is said: "And even then when they are in the land of their enemies I will not abhor them nor sparn them to destroy them— to annul my covenant with them; for I am Adonoy, their God."¹⁴Leviticus 26:44. And it is said: And I will recall for them the covenant with their ancestors whom I took out from the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, to be their God, I am Adonoy.¹⁵Leviticus 26:45. And it is said: "And Adonoy, Your God, will return your exiles and have compassion upon you, and will again gather you from [among] all the nations where Adonoy, your God, has scattered you. Even if your dispersed will be scattered to the ends of the world, from there Adonoy, your God, will gather you, and from there He will fetch you. And it is said: And Adonoy, your God will bring you into the land your forefathers inherited. And you will inherit it; And He will do good to you and multiply you more than your forefathers.¹⁶Deuteronomy 30:3-5. And it is said by Your prophets: Adonoy, be gracious to us, [for] we put our hope in You; be their strength every morning; also our deliverance in time of distress.¹⁷Isaiah 33:2. And it is said: It is a time of trouble for Jacob, but he will be delivered from it¹⁸Jeremiah 30:6. And it is said: In all their affliction, He is afflicted, and the angel of His Presence delivered them; in His love and in His pity, He redeemed them, and bore them and carried them forever.¹⁹Isaiah 63:9. and it is said: Who is an Almighty like You, forbearer of iniquity and forgiver of transgression for the remnant of his heritage? He does not maintain His wrath forever, for He desires to do kindness. He will again show us compassion, He will suppress our iniquities; And you will cast into the depths of the sea all their sins. You will grant truth to Jacob, kindliness to Abraham as You swore to our fathers from the days of old.²⁰Micah 7:18-20. And it is said: And I will bring them to My holy moutain; and make them joyful in My House of Prayer; their burnt-offerings and sacrifices will be accepted with favor on My Altar, for My House will be called a House of Prayer for all peoples.²¹Isaiah 56:7.

Moriah. exalted above all mountains to grant us rest; and with us, He will return; the banished ones He will gather. “He will bring back,” is not said³⁴See note 00 above. but “He will return and gather.”³⁵Deuteronomy 30:3.

May the Rock of His Kindness command to gather His congregations, that they be gathered to Him from the four directions; and to have us lay down on the mount that is the highest of mounts. And the One gathering the dispersed will [also] return - it does not state, "and He will bring back (yashiv)," but rather, "and He will return (shav) and gather" (Deuteronomy 30:3). Blessed is He, our God who has granted us good - according to His mercy, and abundant kindliness, He did great things for us. These things and similar ones may He increase for us; to magnify His great Name, powerful, and awesome which is pronounced upon us. Blessed is He, our God Who created us for His glory (Isaiah 43:7) - to extol Him, to praise Him; and to recount His majesty. Of all peoples, His kindliness has been powerful over us. Therefore, with [our] whole heart, and with [our] whole soul, and with all [our] possessions, we proclaim Him King, and declare His Unity. May the Possessor of peace grant us blessing and peace—from left (north) and from right (south), peace upon Israel. The merciful One, He will bless His people with peace, and they will merit to see children and grandchildren occupying themselves with Torah and with commandments, [bringing] peace upon Israel. Advisor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:5).

more than your forefathers.¹⁶Deuteronomy 30:3-5.
