SHABBAT BLESSING FOR OUR SONS

B"H

Shabbat Blessing for our sons:

On Shabbat, it is customary to bless our children with their own blessing, and hugs, kisses, and we take our time to show them our love, our support, our encouragement.. Letting them feel the love of G-d and their parents...

The traditional blessing said for a son asks G-d to make him like Ephraim and Menashe, who were two of Joseph’s sons in the Bible.

English: May G-d make you like Ephraim and Menashe

Transliteration: Ye'simcha Elohim ke-Ephraim ve hee-Menashe

English: May God bless you and protect you. May G-d’s face shine toward you and show you favor. May G-d look favorably upon you and grant you peace.

Transliteration: Ye'varech'echa HaSh-m ve'yish'merecha. Ya'ir HaSh-m panav eilecha viy-chuneka. Yisa HaSh-m panav eilecha, ve'yasim lecha shalom.
