Daytime Kiddush for Festivals and Rosh HaShanah

DAYTIME KIDDUSH FOR FESTIVALS AND ROSH HASHANAH

When the festival or Rosh HaShanah falls on Shabbat, begin with the following paragraph, then continue with the rest of the blessings, below:

,תָּבַּׁשַה תֶא לֵאָרְׂשִי יֵנְב וּרְמָׁשְו .םָלוֹע תיִרְּב םָתֹרֹדְל תָּבַּׁשַה תֶא תוֹשֲׂעַל

,םָלֹעְל אוִה תוֹא לֵאָרְׂשִי יֵנְּב ןיֵבוּ יִניֵּב הוהי הָׂשָע םיִמָי תֶׁשֵׁש יִּכ ,ץֶראָָה תֶאְו םִיַמָּׁשַה תֶא .שַׁפָּנִיַו תַבָׁש יִעיִבְּׁשַה םוֹיַּבוּ

.וֹשְּׁדַקְל תָּבַּׁשַה םוֹי תֶא רוֹכָז ,ךֶּתְכאַלְמ לָּכ ָתיִׂשָעְו דֹבֲעַּת םיִמָי תֶׁשֵׁש ,ךיֶהֹלֱא הוהיַל תָּבַׁש יִעיִבְּׁשַה םוֹיְו ,ךֶּתִבוּ ךְנִבוּ הָּתאַ ,הָכאָלְמ לָכ הֶׂשֲעַת אֹל רֶׁשֲא ךְרֵגְו ,ךֶּתְמֶהְבוּ ךְתָמֲאַו ךְּדְבַע .ךיֶרָעְׁשִּב

הוהי הָׂשָע םיִמָי תֶׁשֵׁש יִּכ תֶאְו םָיַה תֶא ,ץֶראָָה תֶאְו םִיַמָּׁשַה תֶא ,יִעיִבְּׁשַה םוֹיַּּב חַנָיַו ,םָּב רֶׁשֲא לָּכ תָּבַּׁשַה םוֹי תֶא הוהי ךַרֵּב ןֵּכ לַע .וּהֵׁשְּדַקְיַו The people of Israel will keep Shabbat, observing Shabbat in every generation as an everlasting covenant. It is a sign forever between Me and the people of Israel, for in six days God made the heaven and the earth, and on the seventh day God ceased work and was [as if we could say such a thing] rejuvenated.

Remember Shabbat to keep it holy. You should labor for six days and do all your work, but the seventh day is Shabbat for Adonai, your God; on that day, don’t do any creative work: neither you, your son, your daughter, your male or female [worker, even an] indentured servant, your animal, nor the stranger who lives within your environs. Because in six days Adonai made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore, God blessed Shabbat and declared it holy.

On a festival that falls on a weekday, some start here (see below for Rosh HaShanah):

שֶׁדֹק יֵאָרְקִמ ,הוהי יֵדֲעוֹמ הֶלֵּא .םָדֲעוֹמְבּ םָתֹא וּאְרְקִתּ־רֶשֲׁא יֵנְבּ־לֶא הוהי יֵדֲעֹמ־תֶא הֶשֹׁמ רֵבַּדְיַו .לֵאָרְשִׂי These are the appointed times (festivals) of Adonai, holy gatherings, which you shall announce in their due season.6 Moses proclaimed the festivals of Adonai to the people of Israel.7

When Rosh HaShanah falls on a weekday, begin here:

וּנֵגַח םוֹיְל הֶסֶכַּּב ,רָפוֹשׁ שֶׁדֹחַב וּעְקִּת :בֹקֲעַי יֵהֹלאֵל טָּפְׁשִמ ,אוּה לֵאָרְׂשִיְל קֹח יִּכ Sound the shofar on our festival day, on the new moon, [as it is revealed from being] hidden. For it is a law [gifted] to Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.8

On Sukkot, when Kiddush is recited in the sukkah, add the following blessing:

,םָלוֹעָה ךֶלֶמ ,וּניֵהֹלֱא הוהי ,הָתּאַ ךוּרָבּ .הָכֻּסַּבּ בֵשׁיֵל וּנָֽוִּצְו ויָתוְֹצִמְבּ וּנָֽשְׁדִּק רֶשֲׁא Blessed are You, Adonai, our God, Majesty of the world, who has made us holy with Your commandments, and instructed us to dwell in the sukkah.

,םָלוֹעָה ךֶלֶמ וּניֵהֹלֱא הוהי הָּתאַ ךוּרָּב .ןֶפָגַה יִרְּפ אֵרוֹבּ Blessed are You, Adonai, our God, Majesty of the world, who creates the fruit of the vine.
