Rule of Blessings

The blessing upon the faithful — them that fear God, do His will, keep His commandments, hold fast unto His holy covenant, and walk perfectly in all the ways of His truth.

1Words of blessing pertaining unto the Master — that he may bless them that fear God, that do His will, that keep His commandments, that hold fast unto His holy covenant, and that walk perfectly in all the ways of His truth, whom He hath chosen for an everlasting covenant which shall stand for ever.

2May the Lord bless thee from His holy abode. May He set thee as a glorious ornament in the midst of the holy ones. May He renew the covenant of the everlasting priesthood for thee. May He grace thee with a place in the holy abode.

3May He judge with truth all thy doings; and may all thy waters be of a fountain of righteousness. May He grant thee the inheritance of the everlasting blessings; and the crown of the everlasting.

4May the Lord lift up His countenance unto thee for an everlasting peace. May He set thy life in the bundle of life with the holy ones; that thou mayest be at peace. May He bless thee with every good thing. May He preserve thee from every evil thing. May He enlighten thy heart with the insight of life; may He grace thee with everlasting knowledge.

5May He lift up the countenance of His mercy unto thee for an everlasting peace. May He bless thee from out of His holy abode, that thou mayest stand fast in the holy congregation, and that thou mayest take thy place with the holy ones for ever, and a peace eternal in all the ages of life.
