Leviticus 21-24

Emor - Say

(Day 21 of the Omer)
Leviticus 21:1-3 And the Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them: ‘None shall defile himself for the dead among his people, except for his relatives who are nearest to him: his mother, his father, his son, his daughter, and his brother; also his virgin sister who is near to him, who has had no husband, for her he may defile himself. Otherwise he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.'"

Blessed be Your holy name, O Yehovah. May we be careful not to profane it. You brought us out from our bondage to sin to be our God and we Your people. You are the LORD who leads us and sanctifies us. You have shown us the way of righteousness and how You want us to worship You. Your name is to be hallowed among Your people, therefore may we keep Your commandments and perform them. May we walk in Your ways and keep Your feasts. May we be holy as You are holy. Praise the name of Yehovah! Blessed be the name of Yehovah from this time forth and forevermore! From the rising of the sun to its going down the LORD's name is to be praised. (Psalm 113:1-3)
