For the fully subtitled editions in Yiddish and English: https://bygmotionstudios.com — TRANSLATION — It is our obligation to praise the Master of all, to ascribe greatness to the Creator of the world in the beginning. He has not made us like the nations of the lands, nor positioned us like the families of the earth; He has not assigned our portion like theirs, nor our lot like all their multitudes. For they prostrate themselves to vanity and nothingness, and pray to a god that cannot deliver. But we bow, prostrate ourselves, and offer thanks before the Supreme King of Kings, the Holy One, blessed is He — Who spreads the heavens and establishes the earth; the seat of His glory is in heaven above, and the abode of His invincible might is in the loftiest heights. He is our God — there is nothing else. Our King is true; all else is insignificant. And you shall know this day, and take into your heart, that Hashem is God in the heavens above and upon the earth below; there is nothing else. We therefore put our hope in You, Hashem our God, to soon behold the glory of Your might — banishing idolatry from the earth, and the false gods will be utterly exterminated — to perfect the world as the kingdom of the Almighty. And all mankind will invoke Your Name, to turn back to You all the wicked of the earth. They will realize and know, all the inhabitants of the world, that to You every knee must bend, every tongue must swear. Before You, Hashem our God, they will bow and prostrate themselves, and give honor to the glory of Your Name — and they will all accept the yoke of Your kingdom, and You will reign over them, soon, forever and ever. For the kingdom is Yours, and to all eternity You will reign in glory. As it is written in Your Torah: Hashem shall reign for ever and ever. He has beheld no iniquity in Yaakov, nor seen perverseness in Yisrael; Hashem his God is with him, and the King's love-call is among them. And there was a King in Yeshurun, when the heads of the people were gathered, all the tribes of Yisrael together. For the kingdom is Hashem's, and He is ruler over the nations. Hashem reigns, He is clothed in majesty; the world is established, it cannot be moved. Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, everlasting doors, that the King of Glory may come in. Who is the King of Glory? Hashem of hosts — He is the King of Glory. Selah. I am the first and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God. And saviors shall come up on Mount Tzion, and the kingdom shall be Hashem's. And Hashem shall be King over all the earth; on that day Hashem shall be One, and His Name One. Hear, O Yisrael: Hashem is our God, Hashem is One. Reign over the entire world with Your glory, and be uplifted over all the earth with Your honor. Everything that has been made will know that You have made it, and all that has breath will say: Hashem, God of Yisrael, is King — and His kingship rules over all. Purify our hearts to serve You in truth. Blessed are You, Hashem, King over the whole earth, Who sanctifies Yisrael and the Day of Remembrance.
