The six constant mitzvot

שש מצוות חיובן תמידי, לא יפסקו מהאדם אפילו רגע אחד כל ימיו, וכל זמן וכל רגע שיחשוב בהן קיים מצות עשה

  1. להאמין בה'
    אָנֹכִי ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִיךָ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים:
  2. שלא להאמין זולתו
    לֹא יִהְיֶה לְךָ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים עַל פָּנָי:
  3. יחוד ה'
    שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל ה' אֱלֹקֵינוּ ה' אֶחָד:
  4. אהבת ה'
    וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ בְּכָל לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל מְאֹדֶךָ:
  5. יראת ה'
    אֶת ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ תִּירָא:
  6. שלא לתור אחר מחשבת הלב וראיית העיניים
    וְלֹא תָתוּרוּ אַחֲרֵי לְבַבְכֶם וְאַחֲרֵי עֵינֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר אַתֶּם זֹנִים אַחֲרֵיהֶם:

לְכוּ נְרַנְּנָה לַה' נָרִיעָה לְצוּר יִשְׁעֵנוּ

Six mitzvot whose obligation is constant: they never leave a person, not for a single moment of his life, and whenever, at any moment, he thinks of them, he fulfills a positive commandment.

  1. To believe in God
    "I am HaShem your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage."
  2. Not to believe in any other besides Him
    "You shall have no other gods before Me."
  3. To affirm His Oneness
    "Hear, O Israel: HaShem is our God, HaShem is One."
  4. To love God
    "You shall love HaShem your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your might."
  5. To fear God
    "You shall fear HaShem your God."
  6. Not to stray after the thoughts of the heart and the sight of the eyes
    "And you shall not stray after your heart and after your eyes, after which you go astray."

"Come, let us sing joyously to HaShem, let us raise a shout to the Rock of our salvation."

Psalm 1

{א} אַשְׁרֵי הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר לֹא הָלַךְ בַּעֲצַת רְשָׁעִים וּבְדֶרֶךְ חַטָּאִים לֹא עָמָד וּבְמוֹשַׁב לֵצִים לֹא יָשָׁב:
{ב} כִּי אִם בְּתוֹרַת יְהוָה חֶפְצוֹ וּבְתוֹרָתוֹ יֶהְגֶּה יוֹמָם וָלָיְלָה:
{ג} וְהָיָה כְּעֵץ שָׁתוּל עַל פַּלְגֵי מָיִם אֲשֶׁר פִּרְיוֹ יִתֵּן בְּעִתּוֹ וְעָלֵהוּ לֹא יִבּוֹל וְכֹל אֲשֶׁר יַעֲשֶׂה יַצְלִיחַ:
{ד} לֹא כֵן הָרְשָׁעִים כִּי אִם כַּמֹּץ אֲשֶׁר תִּדְּפֶנּוּ רוּחַ:
{ה} עַל כֵּן לֹא יָקֻמוּ רְשָׁעִים בַּמִּשְׁפָּט וְחַטָּאִים בַּעֲדַת צַדִּיקִים:
{ו} כִּי יוֹדֵעַ יְהוָה דֶּרֶךְ צַדִּיקִים וְדֶרֶךְ רְשָׁעִים תֹּאבֵד:
 

Ashrê haish asher lo halach baatsat reshaim, uvdérech chataim lo amad, uvmoshav letsim lo iashav
Ki im betorat Adonai chef’tso uvtorato iegue iomam valaila
Vehaia keets shatul al palguê máyim, asher pirio yiten beito vealehu lo yibol, vechol asher iaasse iats’líach

Al ken lo iacúmu reshaim bamishpat, vechataim baadat tsadikim
Ki iodêa Adonai dérech tsadikim, vedérech reshaim toved

1. Happy is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scorners.
2. But whose delight is in the Torah of the Lord; and in his Torah he meditates day and night.
3. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.
4. The wicked are not so; but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5. Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6. For the Lord knows the way of the righteous: but the way of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 6

4. He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you find refuge; his truth shall be your shield and buckler.
5. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night; nor of the arrow that flies by day;
6. Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7. A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
8. Only with your eyes shall you behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9. Because you, O Lord, are my refuge. You have made the most High your habitation;
10. No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling.
11. For he shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.
12. They shall carry you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13. You shall tread on the lion and on the adder; the young lion and the crocodile shall you trample under foot.
14. Because he has set his love upon me, therefore I will save him; I will set him on high, because he knows my name.
15. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will save him, and honor him.
16. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

Psalm 121

{א} שִׁיר לַמַּעֲלוֹת אֶשָּׂא עֵינַי אֶל הֶהָרִים מֵאַיִן יָבֹא עֶזְרִי:
{ב} עֶזְרִי מֵעִם יְהוָה עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ:
{ג} אַל יִתֵּן לַמּוֹט רַגְלֶךָ אַל יָנוּם שֹׁמְרֶךָ:
{ד} הִנֵּה לֹא יָנוּם וְלֹא יִישָׁן שׁוֹמֵר יִשְׂרָאֵל:
{ה} יְהוָה שֹׁמְרֶךָ יְהוָה צִלְּךָ עַל יַד יְמִינֶךָ:
{ו} יוֹמָם הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ לֹא יַכֶּכָּה וְיָרֵחַ בַּלָּיְלָה:
{ז} יְהוָה יִשְׁמָרְךָ מִכָּל רָע יִשְׁמֹר אֶת נַפְשֶׁךָ:
{ח} יְהוָה יִשְׁמָר צֵאתְךָ וּבוֹאֶךָ מֵעַתָּה וְעַד עוֹלָם:

Shir lamaalot, essa enai el heharim, meáyin iavo ezri
Ezri meim Adonai, osse shamáyim vaárets
Al yiten lamot raglêcha, al ianum shomerêcha
Hine lo ianum velo yishan, shomer Yisrael
Adonai shomerêcha, Adonai tsilechá al iad ieminêcha
Iomam hashémesh lo iakêca, veiarêach balaila
Adonai yishmorchá micol ra, yishmor et nafshêcha
Adonai yishmor tsetechá uvoêcha, meata vead olam

1. A Song of Maalot. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. From where does my help come? 2. My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth!
3. He will not let your foot be moved; he who watches you will not slumber!
4. Behold, he who watches Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep!
5. The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade upon your right hand!
6. The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night!
7. The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; he shall preserve your soul!
8. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and for evermore!

1. A Psalm of David. Blessed be the Lord my strength, who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to fight;
2. My gracious one, and my fortress; my high tower, and my savior; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdues my people under me.
3. Lord, what is man, that you should take knowledge of him, or the son of man, that you should make account of him?
4. Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.
5. Bow your heavens, O Lord, and come down; touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6. Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; shoot out your arrows, and destroy them.
7. Send your hand from above; rescue me, and save me from great waters, from the hand of strangers;
8. Whose mouth speak vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9. I will sing a new song to you, O God; on a harp of ten strings will I sing praises to you.
10. It is he who gives salvation to kings; who saves David his servant from the harmful sword.
11. Rescue and save me from the hand of strangers, whose mouth speaks vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood;
12. May our sons be like plants grown up in their youth! May our daughters be like corner stones, cut for the structure of a palace.
13. May our garners be full, affording all manner of store! May our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
14. May our oxen be heavy laden, so there should be no breach or migration! May there be no loud cry in our in our streets.
15. Happy is the people to whom that is the case! Happy is the people whose God is the Lord.
