ה  אִם-אֶשְׁכָּחֵךְ יְרוּשָׁלִָם–    תִּשְׁכַּח יְמִינִי.

5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

Psalms Chapter 79 תְּהִלִּים

ט  עָזְרֵנוּ, אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֵנוּ–    עַל-דְּבַר כְּבוֹד-שְׁמֶךָ;
וְהַצִּילֵנוּ וְכַפֵּר עַל-חַטֹּאתֵינוּ,    לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ..

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}

ט  שְׂאוּ שְׁעָרִים, רָאשֵׁיכֶם,    וּשְׂאוּ, פִּתְחֵי עוֹלָם;
וְיָבֹא,    מֶלֶךְ הַכָּבוֹד.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors; {N}
that the King of glory may come in.
