| 17:12 | יז:יבכִּסֵּ֣א כָב֔וֹד מָר֖וֹם מֵרִאשׁ֑וֹן מְק֖וֹם מִקְדָּשֵֽׁנוּ׃ | Kisei chavod, marom meirishon; m'kom mikdasheinu. | A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. |
| 17:13 | יז:יגמִקְוֵ֤ה יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ יְהוָ֔ה כָּל־עֹזְבֶ֖יךָ יֵבֹ֑שׁוּ וְסוּרַי֙ בָּאָ֣רֶץ יִכָּתֵ֔בוּ כִּ֥י עָזְב֛וּ מְק֥וֹר מַֽיִם־חַיִּ֖ים אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ | Mikveh Yisrael Adonai, kol-oz'veicha yeivoshu; v'surai ba'aretz yikatevu, ki azvu m'kor mayim-chayim et-Adonai. | O Eternal, the hope of Israel, all who forsake You shall be ashamed; those who depart from Me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the Eternal, the fountain of living waters. |
| 17:14 | יז:ידרְפָאֵ֤נִי יְהוָה֙ וְאֵ֣רָפֵ֔א הוֹשִׁיעֵ֖נִי וְאִוָּשֵׁ֑עָה כִּ֥י תְהִלָּתִ֖י אָֽתָּה׃ | R'fa'eini Adonai v'eirafei, hoshi'eini v'ivashe'ah; ki t'hilati atah. | Heal me, O Eternal, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise. |
