Prayer for the Salvation of Israel

According to the instruction of our teacher, the elder of the Kabbalists, the pious Kabbalist, the honorable rabbi Shalom Shmueli, of blessed and holy memory, head of the Yeshiva of the Kabbalists: one should open the Ark [Heichal] every day and read these verses out loud. At the very least, they should say them at the time of the opening of the Ark on the Holy Sabbath during Shacharit [morning service] and Mincha [afternoon service], and on Monday and Thursday, and also at the time of a Bris Milah [circumcision]; and then you will see the downfall of Yishmael and Eisav, and the salvation of Israel will sprout soon, Amen.

Yishayahu (Isaiah) 34:1–11

·  "Draw near, O nations, to hear, and peoples, listen; let the earth hear and its fullness, the world and all its offspring."

·  "For the wrath of Hashem is upon all the nations, and fury upon all their host; He has destroyed them, He has given them up to the slaughter."

·  "And their slain shall be cast out, and their corpses shall send up their stench, and mountains shall melt from their blood."

·  "And all the host of heaven shall rot, and the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll, and all their host shall wither like a leaf withering from a vine, and like a falling fig from a fig tree."

·  "For My sword has been sated in heaven; behold, it shall descend upon Edom, and upon the nation with whom I battle, for judgment."

·  "The sword of Hashem is full of blood, it is made fat with fatness, from the blood of lambs and goats, from the fat of kidneys of rams; for Hashem has a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom."

·  "And wild oxen shall go down with them, and bullocks with mighty bulls; and their land shall be sated with blood, and their dust shall be made fat with fatness."
