Mitzrayim to Ge'ulah, speedily and in our days
Chag Sameach from Treppenwitz, who uses his Pesach greeting post to link to just about every Jewish blog there is. So bookmark it for after the holiday. He also publishes a prayer for captives:
May the One Who blessed our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Aaron, David and Solomon, bless the kidnapped and captive soldiers, including among them Gilad ben (the son of) Aviva Shalit; Ohed ben Malka Goldwasser; Eldad ben Tova Regev; Guy ben Rina Hever, Ron ben Batya Arad; Yekutiel Yehuda Nachman ben Sarah Katz; Tzvi ben Penina Feldman; and Zecharia Shlomo ben Miriam Baumel. May the Holy One, Blessed be He, watch them and save them from all trouble and oppression and from all evil and injury.May He be filled with mercy for them, to cause them to recover and to heal them, to strengthen them and to invigorate them, and to bring them speedily to freedom, to return to the embrace of their families. May they merit long lives and years of much strength and peace. In the merit of our forefathers, may the descendants be saved and fulfill through them the verse, 'Release my soul from imprisonment to praise Your Name' (Psalms 142:8), swiftly and soon, and let us all say Amen.
Treppenwitz quotes from a Hebrew prayer for the redemption of captives, often sung to a stirring melody - mp3 and lyrics below.
Acheinu kol beit yisrael, ha'netunim b'tzara uv'shivya, ha'omdim beyn bayam uvein bayabasha. Ha'Makom yirachem aleyhem v'yotziaym mitzara lirvacha, u'meafela l'orah umishibud lig'ulah, hashta ba'agala uvizman kariv.
If any of our brethren of the house of Israel, who are delivered into distress and captivity, whether they are on sea or dry land--may Hashem have mercy on them and remove them from distress to relief, from darkness to light, from subjugation to redemption, now, speedily, and in our days.
(The MP3 is from Rav Landau at 613.org.)
And may we all be delivered from Mitzrayim to Ge'ulah speedily, and in our days.
