To Make us Familiar with thy Law

And may it be thy will, O Lord our God and God of our fathers, to make us familiar with thy Law, and to make us adhere to thy commandments. O lead us not into sin, or transgression, iniquity, temptation, or shame; let not the evil inclination have sway over us; keep us far from a bad man and a bad companion: make us cling to the good inclination and to good works; subdue our inclination so that it may submit itself unto thee; and let us obtain this day, and every day, grace, favour, and mercy in thine eyes, and in the eyes of all who behold us; and bestow loving kindnesses upon us. Blessed art thou, O Lord, who bestowest loving-kindnesses upon thy people Israel.

The Authorized Daily Prayer Book (formally The Authorised Daily Prayer Book of the United Hebrew Congregations of the British Empire, commonly known as Singer’s Prayer Book or Singer’s Siddur) was an English translation of the Hebrew siddur created by Rabbi Simeon Singer. First published in 1890, it has gone through many editions, and is still used in many British Orthodox synagogues and homes.
