Our God and God of our fathers, be with the mouths of those³⁰See Shemos 4:15. Hashem said to Moshe, when he was reluctant to appear before Pharaoh, “אָנֹכִי אֶהְיֶה עִם פִּיךָ וְעִם פִּיהוּ, I will be with your mouth, and with his (Aharon’s) mouth” when you speak to Pharaoh. who have been sent by Your people the House of Yisrael, who stand to offer fervent prayer and supplication before You, in behalf of Your people, the House of Yisrael. Instruct them what to say, teach them what they shall speak, disclose to them what they shall ask, make known to them how they may glorify You. In the light of Your countenance may they walk, [their] knee, unto You may they bend, Your people, with their mouths, may they bless, and from the blessings of Your mouth, may they all be blessed. Your people, they lead into Your Presence, and from their midst,³¹This is based on the fact that the Chazzan stands in the middle of the synagogue, as he prays, with the congregation on both sides of him. they approach You; the eyes of Your people are fixed on them, and their eyes³²This refers to the eyes of the Chazzan, and is based on Midrash Tehillim 106:1, שְׁלִיחַ צִבּוּר יו‍ֹרֵד לִפְנֵי הַתֵּבָה לְפִי שֶׁעֵינֵיהֶם שֶׁל צִבּוּר תְּלוּיו‍ֹת בּו‍ֹ וְעֵינָיו תְּלוּיּו‍ֹת בְּהקב"ה שֶׁהוּא שׁו‍ֹמֵעַ תְּפִלָּתָם. “The Chazzan descends to the stand, for the eyes of the congregation are fixed on him, and his eyes are fixed on the Holy One, blessed be He, Who hears prayer. look longingly to You. They approach the Holy Ark in awe, to appease anger and wrath; and Your people surround them like a wall, and You, from the heavens look upon them with compassion. They lift their eyes to You in heaven, their hearts are poured out before You as water, and You, [please] hear [their prayer] from the heavens. May they not stammer with their tongue, nor become entangled in their speech, may they not be ashamed of those who rely on them,³³This refers to the congregations on whose behalf they are sent. They ask not to be humiliated by the collective sins of the congregations they represent. Another version is that “בְּמַשְׁעֵנָם” refers to Hashem, upon Whom they all rely. The Chazzan thus prays that he not be ashamed before Hashem. and may they not bring disgrace to their multitude [their congregation]; and may their mouths never say a word that is not according to Your will. For those to whom You are favorably disposed, Adonoy, our God, they have truly found favor, and those upon whom You have compassion, they have truly found compassion. For we know, Adonoy, our God, that You will show favor to whom You will show favor, and that You will be compassionate to whom You will be compassionate. As it is written in Your Torah: And He said: “I will cause to pass over all My goodness before you, and I will proclaim the Name, Adonoy in your presence; “I will show favor to whom I show favor, and I will be compassionate to whom I will be compassionate.”³⁴Shemos 33:19. And it is said: “Let them not be ashamed through me those who wait for You, my Master, God of Hosts; let them not be disgraced through me, those who seek You, God of Yisrael.”³⁵Tehillim 69:7.

We have forgotten Your goodness, and been mindless of Your great kindnesses; we have rebelled against Your word, and have turned away from Your laws. We have indulged in the vanities of this world, and to men of arrogance and deceit we have turned. We have been very foolish, we have loved evil more than good, and falsehood rather than speaking righteousness, we have sought impurity rather than purity, and the loathsome rather than the clean; we have exchanged the permanent [world] for the transitory. Day by day we rise early to sin, until our iniquities have mounted above our heads, and are more numerous than our hairs, and more powerful than the words of our mouth, and exceeded the steps of our feet, and surpassed the breathing of our nostrils. We have sunk into muddy depths, and there is no foothold; we have come into deep waters, and a whirlpool has swept us away.¹Psalms 69:3. Not You Adonoy, our God, have we harmed, but [only] ourselves, not You have we irritated but [only] ourselves; for when man sins, what effect has it on You? If his transgressions are numerous, what does it do to You? But woe to the sons of man who sin against You, and woe to their souls, for they bring evil upon themselves. Our God, we are too ashamed and disgraced, to lift our faces to You, our God;²Ezra 9:6. for we are like a repulsive vessel, thus are we disgraced in our own eyes. As a man immersed in a [muddy] ditch and soils his clothing;³Job 9:31. and as we were conceived in iniquity, so the shame of our faces have covered us.⁴Psalms 44:16.
