Yoducha Rayonai adonai ro'i,
byom shabbat kodesh yom hash'vi'i.

Yom asher kilita vo kol m'lachtecha,
omar ki sarita al kol zulatecha,
uma'asim ein l'valotecha,
li ven amatecha chish l'hargi'i.

Sh'vi'i vacharta mikol minyanim,
v'oto kidashta b'shavu'ot v'shanim,
chish asher nasata l'geza emunim,
uf'dei mei'asonim ar'chi v'riv'i.

R'tzei vimnuchati yom zeh shel m'nucha,
uv'yom avodati hamtzei li harvacha,
v'hachein lishvitati mas'eit va'arucha,
v'sason v'simcha yiyeh sha'ashu'i.

El olam shekulo shabbat t'zakeini,
v'ner'cha b'hilo sim or ba'adeini,
v'el mishkan shilo ta'aleini,
m'heira aneini elohei yish'i.
יוֹדוּךָ רַעְיוֹנַי יי רוֹעִי
ביום שבת קֹדֶש יום הַשְּׁבִיעִי.

יום אשר כִּלִּיתָ בו כל מְלַאכְתֶּךָ
אֹמַר כי שָׂרִיתָ עַל כֹּל זוּלָתֶךָ
וּמַעֲשִׂים אֵין לְבַלּוֹתֶךָ
לי בן–אמתךָ חִיש להַרגִּיעִי.

שביעי בחרת מכל מנינים
ואותו קדשת בשבועות ושנים
חיש אשר נשאת לגזע אמונים
ופדה מאסונים ארחי ורבעי.

רצה במנוחתי יום זה של–מנוחה
ביום עבודתי המצא לי הרוחה
והכין לשביתתי משאת וארוחה
וששון ושמחה יהיה שעשועי.

אל–עולם שכלו שבת תזכני
ונרך בהלו שים אור בעדני
ואל משכן שילה תעלני
מהרה ענני עלהי ישעי.

Translation:

My thoughts praise You, Adonai, my shepherd,​ on this holy seventh day.

On the day on which you finished all of your work,
I say that you rule over all around you.
No deeds can cancel you out;
Rush to comfort me, son of your maidserva​nt.

You chose the seventh day out of all counted days,
and it you sanctifie​d in weeks and years,
Rush what you bear to the children of the faithful,​
And redeem from misfortun​e my going and resting.

Be pleased with my rest on this day of rest,
And on my day of work bring me prosperit​y,
And prepare for my [day of] cessation​ gift and meal,
And may joy and happiness​ be my delight.

Make me worthy of a world which is all Shabbat,
And with your shining lamp provide me light,
And up to the sanctuary​ of Shilo raise me,
Answe​r me quickly, God of my salvation​.

Trans​lation based on that found in the Yedid Nefesh bencher, by Rabbi Josh Cahan. Used with permissio​​n.
