| #7 G'd full of mercy who dwells on high Protector of widows and father for the fatherless Please be not silent and show no restraint on behalf of the Jewish blood that has been spilled like water. But grant perfect rest on the wings of Your Divine Presence In the lofty abode of the holy, pure and valiant who shine as the brightness of the heavens to the souls of our brothers and sisters Six million Jewish men, women and children Who were put to death, slaughtered, burned, starved, buried alive Or who suffered other forms of unnatural death at the hands of the accursed Nazis and their associates — may their name be wiped out! In Auschwitz, Treblinka, Maydanek, Malthausen and in other death camps in Europe. And who gave up their lives in order to Sanctify G'd's name. Because we are at one with their memory and we pray for the elevation of their souls Their resting place shall be in the Garden of Eden. Therefore, shall the Master of mercy care for them under the protection of His wings for all time And bind their souls in the bond of everlasting life. O Earth! Do not conceal their blood and let there not be a resting place for their cry In their merit shall the remnant of Israel return to its rightful place And as for the holy ones, their righteousness shall be in front of the Lord as an everlasting memory They will come in peace and will rest in peace They will meet their rightful destiny at the end of days and let us say Amen. |
