C
onsider adding
this prayer to your
seder this year for
the people of Ukraine.
Shield of Abraham,
Protector of Sarah, rise
up in protection of our
brothers
and sisters
in Ukraine,
so that they
may travel on
eagles’ wings
safely to the
Promised
Land. There
may they know the loving
embrace of family and
kinsmen and, together with
all Jews, may their futures
hold blessing and success,
prosperity and peace.
Compassionate Creator
of all, open our hearts so
that our mercy and our
kindness may be upon all
Ukrainians. Inspire us for
the sake of peace to care
actively for their widows
and their orphans, their
poor and their suffering,
that each and every person
shall sit under his or her
vine and fig tree and none
shall make them afraid.
Heavenly Designer, grant
understanding and wisdom
to all leaders of this world.
May they know humility
and patience, benevolence
and charity, to protect
the God-given individual
rights of humanity and the
sanctity of democracy. May
these leaders remember
and fear the horrors of
nuclear weaponry, and
may they be emboldened
and empowered to prevent
the further military use
of nuclear, chemical and
biological technologies.
May we together, You
and us, work toward the
day when nation shall
not lift up sword against
nation, and when justice,
righteousness and loving-
kindness shall flow like a
mighty stream.
And let us say, Amen!
