Today Is Fourteen Days of the Omer • A Prayer for “Malchus within Gevurah” from

The Order of Counting the Omer:

For the sake of the unification of the Holy One, blessed is He, and His Shechinah, with awe and with love—to unify the Name Y-H with V-H in perfect unity, in the name of all Israel. I am hereby ready and prepared to fulfill the positive mitzvah of Counting the Omer, as it is written in the Torah: “And you shall count for yourselves from the morrow of the Shabbos, from the day you bring the Omer of the waving—seven complete weeks shall they be. Until the morrow of the seventh Shabbos you shall count fifty days, and you shall bring a new meal-offering to Hashem.” And may the pleasantness of Hashem our G-d be upon us; establish for us the work of our hands—establish the work of our hands.

Blessed are You, Hashem our G-d, King of the universe, Who sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us concerning the Counting of the Omer.

Today is fourteen days, which are one week and six days of the Omer

For the conductor, with melodies—a psalm, a song: May G-d be gracious to us and bless us; may He shine His face with us, Selah. So that Your way may be known on earth, Your salvation among all nations. May the peoples thank You, O G-d; may the peoples thank You—all of them. Nations will rejoice and sing, for You will judge peoples with fairness, and guide the nations on earth, Selah. May the peoples thank You, O G-d; may the peoples thank You—all of them. The earth has yielded its produce; G-d, our G-d, will bless us. G-d will bless us, and all the ends of the earth will fear Him.

Please, with the power of the greatness of Your right hand, release what is bound. Accept the songful prayer of Your people; strengthen us, purify us—Awesome One. Please, Mighty One—those who seek Your unity—guard them like the pupil of the eye. Bless them, purify them; with the compassion of Your righteousness, always repay them. Powerful and Holy One, with Your abundant goodness, lead Your congregation. Unique and Exalted One, turn to Your people—those who remember Your holiness. Blessed is the Name of the glory of His kingship forever and ever.

Master of the world, You commanded us through Moshe Your servant to count the Counting of the Omer, in order to purify us from our klipos and from our impurities, as You wrote in Your Torah: “And you shall count for yourselves from the morrow of the Shabbos, from the day you bring the Omer of the waving—seven complete weeks shall they be. Until the morrow of the seventh Shabbos you shall count fifty days.” So that the souls of Your people Israel may be purified from their defilement. Therefore, may it be Your will, Hashem our G-d and G-d of our fathers, that in the merit of the Counting of the Omer that I counted today, what I damaged in the sefirah Malchus within Gevurah

might be rectified; and may I be purified and sanctified with the holiness from Above. Through this, may abundant Divine flow be drawn down in all the worlds—so as to rectify our souls, our spirits, and our neshamas from every dross and blemish, and to purify us and sanctify us with Your supernal holiness, Amen, Selah.
