Make holy

Kadesh: Section 1
 

Fill the first cup of wine.

 

הִנְנִי מוּכָן וּמְזוּמָּן לְקַיֵּם מִצְוַת כּוֹס רִאשׁוֹנָה מֵאַרְבַּע כּוֹסוֹת לְשֵׁם יִחוּד קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ עַל יְדֵי הַהוּא טְמִיר וְנֶעְלָם בְּשֵׁם כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל

Here I am, ready to perform the mitzvah of the first of four cups of wine.

Kadesh: Section 2
 

סַבְרִי מָרָנָן וְרַבָּנָן וְרַבּוֹתַי

By your leave, my masters, rabbis and teachers:

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, בּוֹרֵא פְּרִי הַגָּפֶן

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.

Baruch Atah Ado’nai Elo’heinu Melech Ha’olam Boreh Pree Ha’ga’fen.

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר בָּחַר בָּנוּ מִכָּל-עָם, וְרוֹמְמָנוּ מִכָּל-לָשׁוֹן, וְקִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו, וַתִּתֶּן-לָנוּ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ בְּאַהֲבָה וּמוֹעֲדִים לְשִׂמְחָה, חַגִּים וּזְמַנִּים לְשָׂשׂוֹן אֶת-יוֹם חַג הַמַּצוֹת הַזֶּה. זְמַן חֵרוּתֵנוּ, מִקְרָא קֹדֶשׁ, זֵכֶר לִיצִיאַת מִצְרָיִם. כִּי בָנוּ בָחַרְתָּ וְאוֹתָנוּ קִדַּשְׁתָּ מִכָּל-הָעַמִים. וּמוֹעֲדֵי קָדְשֶׁךָ בְּשִׂמְחָה וּבְשָׂשׂוֹן הִנְחַלְתָּנוּ: בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, מְקַדֵּשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל וְהַזְמַנִּים

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has chosen and exalted us above all nations and has sanctified us with Your commandments. And You, Lord our God, have lovingly bestowed upon us, appointed times for happiness, holidays and seasons for joy, this Feast of Matzot, our season of freedom, a holy convocation recalling the Exodus from Egypt. You did choose and sanctify us above all peoples. In Your gracious love, You did grant us Your appointed times for happiness and joy. Blessed are You,  O Lord, who sanctifies, Israel, and the appointed times.

Kadesh: Section 3
 

Conclude here.

 

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, שֶׁהֶחֱיָנוּ וְקִיְּמָנוּ וְהִגִּיעָנוּ לַזְּמַן הַזֶּה

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has granted us life and sustenance and permitted us to reach this season.

Baruch Atah Ado’nai, Elo’heinu Melech Ha’olam, She’heche’yanu, V'kiye’manu Vehigi’yanu La’z'man Ha’zeh.
