Blessed art Thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, who created the fruit of the vine. Second Blessing: Ba-ruch Ah-tah A-do-nai, E-lo-he-nu me-lech ha-o-lam, she-ha-kol ba-ra li-che-vo-do Blessed art Thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, who created all things for His glory. Third Blessing: Ba-ruch ah-tah A-do-nai, E-lo-he-nu me-lech ha-o-lam, yo-tzer ha-a-dam. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, Creator of man. Fourth Blessing: Ba-ruch ah-tah A-do-nai, E-lo-he-nu me-lech ha-o-lam, a-sher ya-tzar et ha-a-dam be-tzal-mo, be-tze-lem de-mut tav-ni-to, ve-hit-kin lo mi-me-nu bin-yan a-day ad. Ba-ruch ah=tah, A-do-nai, yo-tzer ha-a-dam. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, who fashioned man in His own image, after His own likeness, and established through him enduring life. Blessed be Thou, O L-rd, Creator of man. Fifth Blessing: Sos ta-sis ve-ta-gel ha-a-ka-ra, be-ki-butz ba-ne-ha le-to-cha be-sim-cha. Ba-ruch ah-tah, A-do-nai, me-sa-me'ach Tzi-yon be-va-ne-cha. May Zion, made berefit of her children, soon rejoice as they return joyfully to her. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd, for causing Zion to rejoice upon the return of her children. Sixth Blessing: Sa-me'ach t'sa-mach re'im ha-ah-u-vim, ke-sa-mech-a-cha ye-tzir-cha be-Gan Eden mi-ke-dem. Ba-ruch ah-tah, A-do-nai, me-sa-me'ach cha-tan ve-cha-la. Bring abundant joy to these dear companions, just as Thou didst bestow joy upon Thy creations in the Garden of Eden. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd, who bestows joy upon groom and bride. Seventh Blessing: Ba-ruch ah-tah A-do-nai, E-lo-henu me-lech ha-o-lam, a-sher ba-ra sa-son ve-sim-cha, cha-tan ve-cha-la, gi-la, ri-na, di-tza, ve-ched-va, a-ha-va ve-ach-a-va, ve-sha-lom ve-re'ut. Me-he-ra A-do-nai E-lo-he-nu yi-sha-ma be-a-ray Ye-hu-da u-ve-chu-tzot Ye-ru-sha-la'yim, kol sa-son ve-kol sim-cha, kol cha-tan ve-kol ka-la, kol mitz-ha-lot cha-ta-nim me-chu-pa-tam, u-ne'a-rim mi-mish-tay ne-gi-na-tam. Ba-ruch ah-tah, A-do-nai, me-sa-me'ach cha-tan im ha-ka-la. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, who created joy and gladness, a groom and his bride, mirth and merriment, dancing and delight, love and harmony, peace and friendship. O L-rd our G-d, may there soon be heard again in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem joyful voices: the voices of groom and bride joined in marriage under the chupa, voices of young people feasting and celebrating. Blessed art Thou, O L-rd, who makes the groom rejoice with his bride. -- Rabbi Michael Silver (Rav Mordecai Ben-Baruch) Etz Chayim - Tree of Life Messianic Jewish Congregation P.O.
