עַל כֵּן ה׳ אֱלֹקינוּ בְּשָׁכְבֵנוּ וּבְקוּמֵנוּ נָשִׂיחַ בְּחֻקֶּיךָ וְנִשְׂמַח בְּדִבְרֵי תוֹרָתֶךָ וּבְמִצְוֹתֶיךָ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד:

Translation:

With everlasting love hast Thou loved the house of Israel. Thou hast revealed to us a Law and commandments, statutes and judgments. Therefore, O Lord our God, when we lie down and when we rise up we shall attend to Thy statutes. Yea, we shall rejoice in the words of They Law and in Thy commandments forever and ever.
