Sung in Hebrew
Words: Sabbath liturgy (Genesis 2: 1-3)
And there were finished the heaven and the earth and all the hosts thereof. When the Lord had finished, the seventh day, all His work which He made, and He rested the seventh day from all the work which He made; then the Lord blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, for He rested thereon from all His works the Lord created to operate.
[continuation from the Sabbath eve service]:
Blessed art Thou, O Lord, our God! and the God of our fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the great, mighty and tremendous God, the Most High God! Creator of the heavens and the earth.
