Blessings on Torah Reading
(The following blessings are recited by every person called to the Torah.)
The Kohein walks up to the Torah and says: Blessed Adonoy, Who is blessed.
The Congregation responds and the Kohein repeats: Blessed is Adonoy, Who is blessed, forever and ever.
The Kohein repeats: Blessed is Adonoy, Who is blessed, forever and ever.
Blessed are You, Adonoy our God, King of the Universe, Who chose us from among all the peoples and gave us His Torah. Blessed are You, Adonoy, Giver of the Torah.
After the Torah is read, the Kohein says:
Blessed are You, Adonoy our God, King of the Universe Who gave us the Torah of truth, and implanted eternal life within us. Blessed are You, Adonoy, Giver of the Torah.
