Being our nurturer, defender
and the pillar of strength in our exhausted lives
You sustained me, oh God
I will praise you
incessantly I will extol you
Adonai Magen (Our God, The Protector)
The elapsed past has been so dark,
pestilence and anguish became a death decree in my life
Yet, I was spared rather destroyed
in the shadow of your wings, you have preserved me
you kept new year in my life
your kept me among the remnant generation as your witness
I praise you, Oh survivor of my life
my life is dedicated
to you my life is dedicated 
In the days to come
be the source of our life
in our appetence, attention and laboriousness
be our companion to make us fruitful
preserve us, please in your will
let the old be passed, and make all new
with your everlasting blessing, in your path of truth
lead me, Oh my Lord, I will praise you
my life is dedicated
to you my life is dedicated
