[a]May they fear You (A)while the sun shines,
And [b]as long as the moon shines, throughout all generations.
[c]May he come down (B)like rain upon the mown grass,
Like (C)showers that water the earth.
[d]May the (D)righteous flourish in his days,
As well as an (E)abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
