19 This shall be written for the generation to come; and a people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

TIKKUN RACHEL:

Psalms Chapter 137 תְּהִלִּים

2 Upon the willows in the midst thereof we hanged up our harps.

Psalms Chapter 79 תְּהִלִּים

ה  עַד-מָה יְהוָה, תֶּאֱנַף לָנֶצַח;    תִּבְעַר כְּמוֹ-אֵשׁ, קִנְאָתֶךָ.

5 How long, O LORD, wilt Thou be angry for ever? How long will Thy jealousy burn like fire?

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}
