Almighty who is slow to anger and full of compassion, do not hide Your presence from us. Adonoy, spare Your people¹This verse from Joel (2:17) was inserted here by the sages of Italy as an abbreviated form of Tachanun to be recited by latecomers to the synagogue, instead of the entire “Vehu Rachum”, so that they could pay attention to the reading of the Torah. and save us from all evil. We have sinned against You, Master, forgive us, please, in keeping with Your abundant mercy, Almighty.

Almighty who is slow to anger and of great kindness and truth, do not rebuke us in Your anger.

We have sinned against You, Master, forgive us, please, in keeping with Your abundant mercy, Almighty.

Incline Your ear, my God, and hear;¹⁴“Hear” that which others say and think about us; or “hear” our cry for help.—S.R. Hirsch open Your eyes and behold our desolate places and the city which is called by Your Name, for it is not on account of our righteousness that we let fall our supplications before You, but because of Your great mercy. My Master, hear! my Master, forgive! my Master, listen and take action, do not delay! For Your sake, my God, for Your Name is proclaimed over Your¹⁵If the city which You have founded should fall, and the people You have chosen should perish, the cause of the universal acknowledgement of Your Oneness, would suffer.—S.R.

Our Father, merciful Father, show us a sign for good and gather our dispersed [people] from the four corners of the earth, [so that] all nations will recognize and know that You, Adonoy, are our God.¹⁶Daniel 9:15-19. And now, Adonoy, You are our Father; we are the clay and You are our Former; and we are all the work of Your hand. Deliver us, for Your Name’s sake our Father, our Rock, our King and our Redeemer.¹⁷Isaiah 64:7. Adonoy, spare Your people, and let not Your heritage be [an object] of contempt for nations to rule over.¹⁸Joel 2:17. Why should they say among the peoples, Where is their God? Adonoy, we know that we have sinned, and there is none to stand up in our behalf. Let Your great Name stand up for us at the time of distress. We know that we have no [good] deeds, [therefore] deal charitably with us for Your Name’s sake. As a father has compassion on his children, so do You have compassion on us, Adonoy,¹⁹Others translate this as a prayer rather than a fact: “So, Adonoy, have compassion on us.” and [therefore] deliver us for Your Name’s sake. Have pity on Your people, have compassion on Your heritage, spare us with Your great mercy; favor us, our King, and answer us, for righteousness is Yours, Adonoy, Who performs wonders at all times.
