Translation

My God, guard my speech from evil and my lips from deception.
Before those who slander me, I will hold my tongue; I will practice humility.
Open my heart to Your Torah, that I may pursue Your mitzvot.
As for all who think evil of me, cancel their designs and frustrate their schemes.
Act for Your own sake, for the sake of Your Power,
for the sake of Your Holiness, for the sake of Your Torah;
so that Your loved ones may be rescued, save with Your power. And answer me.

Transliteration

Yih’yu l’ratzon imrei fi v’hegyon libi

Translation

May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart
be acceptable to You, Adonai, my Rock and my Redeemer.
