Abba, Father in Heaven,
אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם,
You who chose Zion and set Your Name upon Jerusalem, the city whose very name holds shalom—completeness, well-being, and peace. I come before You with an open heart. Father, I pray for shalom in all Israel.
Let Your shalom—not merely the absence of conflict, but the fullness of Your presence—rest upon every hill and valley, every home and every soul in יִשְׂרָאֵל. Guard the land You promised. Strengthen those who dwell there. Heal what is broken. Bind up the wounded. Give wisdom to leaders, courage to the weary, and comfort to those who mourn. Spread over them the סוכת שלומך, the canopy of Your peace. Father, I pray for Shalom in Jerusalem.
As it is written: שַׁאֲלוּ שְׁלוֹם יְרוּשָׁלִָם—Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may those who love you prosper. Let there be shalom within her walls and quietness within her palaces. Let righteousness rise in her streets like the dawn. Let the city of the Great King know Your protection, Your justice, and Your nearness. Comfort Zion. Rebuild what has been torn. Make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. You are עוֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו—He who makes peace in His heights.
Make that same peace here below: upon us, upon all Israel, and upon Jerusalem, the city You love. For the sake of Your Name,
for the sake of Your people,
for the sake of the city where You have placed Your dwelling, let Your shalom come.
Let it remain.
Let it overflow. Amen.
כֵּן יְהִי רָצוֹן.
