Prayer for Divine Assistance on Behalf of a Birthing Mother
Master of the Universe, Mighty Creator of heaven and earth,
Please help this woman crying out in the pain of giving birth!
We turn to Your compassion to forgive,
and ensure that she and her baby will live!
May her labor serve as atonement for any sin!
so, she becomes cleansed and can a new life begin!
Let the sound of her cry ascend to Your Throne of Glory!
May her accusers be powerless to tell their harmful story!
None of us can help never Your holy mitzvot to transgress,
Pardon us and this birthing woman because we all confess!
Hear the woman’s defense and let her good deeds be gathered before You
She deserves an easy birth, a healthy baby and much nachat too!
Spread Your mercy upon her, for You answer in time of distress.
Allow her womb to open speedily and let the birth progress!
Based on the Book of Vayikra Chapter 12 verse 1:
ספר ויקרא פרק יב פסוק א
דַּבֵּר אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל
לֵאמֹר אִשָּׁה כִּי תַזְרִיעַ וְיָלְדָה זָכָר וְטָמְאָה שִׁבְעַת יָמִים כִּימֵי
נִדַּת דְּוֹתָהּ תִּטְמָא:
“Speak to the children of Israel, saying: If a woman conceives and
gives birth to a male, she shall be impure for seven days; as [in] the days of
her menstrual flow, she shall be impure” (Vayikra 12:1).
Prayer for a Birthing Mother
May it be Your will, O great, mighty and awesome G-d, that the
merits of this poor woman who is trembling and crying out in her pains of
childbirth, be remembered before You. If she has done anything against Your
will, forgive and cleanse it through her suffering in the pain of her labor.
May the sound of her cry ascend to Your Throne of Glory and seal the mouth of
her accusers; but may those who defend her with good deeds be gathered before
You as is Your custom, to bestow goodness on the worthy and non-worthy alike.
Spread Your mercy upon her, for You answer in time of distress. O merciful
Ruler who is merciful to all, who redeems and saves, hears and answers!
