Eternal master, who reigned supreme,Adon 'olam, 'asher malakh,אֲדוֹן עוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר מָלַךְ
Before all of creation was drawn;b'terem kol y'tzir niv'raבְּטֶרֶם כָּל יְצִיר נִבְרָא
When it was finished according to his will,L'et na'asa v'ḥeftso kol,לְעֵת נַעֲשָׂה בְחֶפְצוֹ כֹּל
Then "King" his name was proclaimed to beAzai melekh sh'mo nikraאֲזַי מֶלֶךְ שְׁמוֹ נִקְרָא
When this our world shall be no more,V'aḥarey kikh'lot hakolוְאַחֲרֵי כִּכְלוֹת הַכֹּל
In majesty he still shall reign,L'vado y'imlokh noraלְבַדּוֹ יִמְלוֹךְ נוֹרָא
And he was, and he is,V'hu hayah v'hu hovehוְהוּא הָיָה וְהוּא הֹוֶה
And he will be in glory.V'hu yih'yeh b'tif'arahוְהוּא יִהְיֶה בְּתִפְאָרָה
Alone is he, there is no second,V'hu 'eḥad v'eyn sheyniוְהוּא אֶחָד וְאֵין שֵׁנִי
Without division or ally;L'ham'shil lo l'haḥbirahלְהַמְשִׁילֹ לוֹ לְהַחְבִּירָה
Without beginning, without end,B'li reyshiyt b'li taḥ'liytבְּלִי רֵאשִׁית בְּלִי תַכְלִית
To him is the power and sovereigntyV'lo ha'oz v'hamis'rahוְלוֹ הָעֹז וְהַמִּשְׂרָה
He is my God, my living redeemerV'hu 'Eli v'ḥay go'aliוְהוּא אֵלִי וְחַי גּוֹאֲלִי
Rock of my affliction in day of troublev'tsur ḥevli b'yom tsarahוְצוּר חֶבְלִי בְּיוֹם צָרָה
He is my banner and refugeV'hu nisi 'umanos liוְהוּא נִסִּי וּמָנוֹס ִלִי
Filling my cup the day I callm'nat kosi b'yom 'ekraמְנָת כּוֹסִי בְּיוֹם אֶקְרָא
Into his hand I commit my spiritB'yado af'kid ruḥiבְּיָדוֹ אַפְקִיד רוּחִי
When I sleep, and I awakeb'et 'ishan v'a'iraבְּעֵת אִישָׁן וְאָעִירָה
And with my spirit, my bodyv'im ruḥi g'viyatiוְעִם רוּחִי גְוִיָּתִי
The Lord is with me, I will not fearAdonai li v'lo 'iraאֲדֹנָי לִי וְלֹא אִירָא




This prayer unmistakably sings to Yeshua ha-mashiach and of Yeshua haMashiach.
