We thank thee for the miracles, for the redemption-, for the
mighty deeds and triuMphs, and for the battle which thou didst
perform for our fathers in those days, at this season- -
. In the days of the Hasmonean, Mattathias ben Yobanan, the
High Priest, and his sons, when a wicked Hellenic government
rose up against thy people Israel to make them forget thy Torah
and transgress the laws of thy will. Thou in thy great mercy didst
stand by them in the time of their distress. Thou didst champion
their cause, defend their rights and avenge their wrong; thou
didst deliver the strong into the hands of the weak, the many in-
to the hands of the few, the impure into the hands of the pure,
the wicked into the hands of the righteous, and the arrogant into
the hands of the students of thy Torah. Thou didst make a great
and holy name for thyself in the world, and for thy people Israel
thou didst Perform a great deliverance unto this day. Thereupon
thy children entered the shrine of thy house, cleansed thy Temple,
purified thy sanctuary, kindled lights in thy holy courts, and
designated these eight days of Van -ukkah for giving thanks a,ud
praise to thy great name.
