RECITATION BEFORE THE TIKKUN RACHEL AND TIKKUN LEAH:

Psalms Chapter 102 תְּהִלִּים

י  כִּי-אֵפֶר, כַּלֶּחֶם אָכָלְתִּי;    וְשִׁקֻּוַי, בִּבְכִי מָסָכְתִּי.

10 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

VIDUI: Forgive and correct our every failure to connect

TIKKUN RACHEL:

Psalms Chapter 137 תְּהִלִּים

ז  זְכֹר יְהוָה, לִבְנֵי אֱדוֹם–    אֵת, יוֹם יְרוּשָׁלִָם:
הָאֹמְרִים, עָרוּ עָרוּ–    עַד, הַיְסוֹד בָּהּ.

7 Remember, O LORD, against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; {N}
who said: ‘Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.’

Psalms Chapter 79 תְּהִלִּים

ג  שָׁפְכוּ דָמָם, כַּמַּיִם–סְבִיבוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָם;    וְאֵין קוֹבֵר.

3 They have shed their blood like water round about Jerusalem, with none to bury them.

CONCLUSION OF TIKKUN RACHEL:

Isaiah Chapter 52 יְשַׁעְיָהוּ

ב הִתְנַעֲרִי מֵעָפָר קוּמִי שְּׁבִי, יְרוּשָׁלִָם; התפתחו (הִתְפַּתְּחִי) מוֹסְרֵי צַוָּארֵךְ, שְׁבִיָּה בַּת–צִיּוֹן. {ס}

2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem; loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion. {S}

TIKKUN LEAH:

Psalms Chapter 24 תְּהִלִּים
