These are our brothers and sisters, our mothers and fathers, our cousins, our family. This is the worst terror to happen to our people, the Jewish people, since the Holocaust.

Prayer for the Redemption of Israelis Taken Captive

Our God, the One who raised Joseph up from the
pit, be “a refuge for the oppressed,
a refuge in times of trouble.” (Psalms 9:10)
Send complete rescue and full redemption
to those held captive by the enemy.

Strengthen their spirit and bring them our prayers
that they be protected from all harm.

Implant understanding in the heart of the enemy
that they may return the captives in wholeness of
body and spirit.

Grant wisdom to the Israel Defense Forces
that they may secure freedom for the captives
without loss of life.

Grant strength of spirit and courage of heart
to all the sons and daughters of Abraham, Sarah,
and Hagar to release bonds of captivity
and allow us all to live in freedom.

“They shall call upon Me, and I will answer them;
I will be with them in distress; I will rescue them,
and honor them.” (after Psalms 91:15)

And we say Amen.

Sorry, I can copy the Hebrew for some reason without serious glitches.

Please pray with me.

Love,

Our loved ones, the whole house of Israel, who are in distress and captivity, who
wander over sea and over land - may God have mercy on them, and bring them from
distress to comfort, from darkness to light, from slavery to redemption, now, swiftly,
and soon. And let us say: Amen
