Shabbat Shalom Lecha Dodi
The full version of the song (note that many Reformcongregations omit verses 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8 which make reference to Orthodox conceptions of messianic redemption):

| 29 | Your God will rejoice in you, | Yasis alayich E-lohayich | ישיש עליך אלהיך |
| 30 | As a groom rejoices in a bride. | Kimsos chatan al kalah | כמשוש חתן על כלה |

| 32 | And God will you revere | Ve-et Ado-nai ta'aritzi | ואת יי תעריצי |
| 33 | By the hand of a child of Perez, | Al yad ish ben Partzi | על יד איש בן פרצי |
