Aniversário de criança
O aniversário de uma criança é momento de celebrar o presente precioso que Deus deu. Cada criança é formada e conhecida por Deus desde antes de nascer.
For Thou hast possessed my inmost being;
Thou didst interweave me in the beten immi.
I will praise Thee;
for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
marvellous are Thy ma’asim; and that my nefesh knoweth very well.
My atzamim (bones, frame) were not hid from Thee,
when I was made beseter (in secret),
and skillfully wrought in the depths of the Eretz.
Thine eyes did see my golem (embryo),
yet being unformed;
and in Thy Sefer (Book) all the yamim (days) ordained for me were written down,
when as yet there were none of them.
How precious also are Thy thoughts unto me, O El!
How great is the sum of them!
This is the yom which Hashem hath made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
So teach us to number yameinu,
that we may apply levav unto chochmah.
By Thee have I been upheld from the beten (womb);
Thou art He that took me out of the womb of immi;
my tehillah (praise) shall be of Thee tamid (continually).
One thing have I asked of Hashem,
that will I seek after:
that I may dwell in the Bais Hashem
all the days of my life,
to behold the gracefulness of Hashem,
and to inquire in His Heikhal.
He trusted in Hashem;
let Hashem rescue him; let Him deliver him, since He delights in him.
But Thou art He that took me out of the womb;
Thou didst make me trust when I was upon the breasts of immi.
For this child I davened; and Hashem hath given me my petition which I asked of Him;
For I was ben to avi,
tender and yachid (an only child) before immi.
He taught me also, and said unto me,
Let thine lev retain my words;
be shomer over my mitzvot, and live.
Have simcha in Adoneinu always; again I will say it: Rejoice!
And the yeled continued growing and was given chozek (strength), being filled with chochmah (wisdom), and the Chen vChesed Hashem was upon him.
