It is You, the Lord our God,
Who nourishes, sustains, and supports
every living creature.
Provide me with my allotment of bread,
and bring forth food for me
and all members of my household
before
I have need for it.
May we be supported
in contentment but not in pain, in a
permissible but not a forbidden
manner,
in honor but not in disgrace,
for life and for peace.
May we be supported
from the flow of blessing
and success,
and from the flow of the Heavenly spring,
so that I will be able to do Your will,
engage in Your
Torah,
and fulfill Your commandments.
Make me not dependent on the generosity of other people.
And may there
be fulfilled in me the verse that states, "You open up Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing" (Psalms 145:16).
And
also the verse that states,
"Cast Your burden upon God
and He will support you" (Psalms 55:23).
