Psalm 118: 1-4

הוֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה כִּי־ט֑וֹב כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃

 יֹֽאמַר־נָ֥א יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃

 יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָ֥א בֵֽית־אַהֲרֹ֑ן כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃

 יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָ֭א יִרְאֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃

Hodu Ladonai ki tov; Ki le'olam chasdo.
Yomar na Yisrael: Ki le'olam chasdo.
Yomru na veit Aharon: Ki le'olam chasdo.
Yomru na yirei Adonai: Ki le'olam chasdo.

Give thanks to Adonai; for God is good,
for God's love is eternal.
Let Israel say as one,
God's love is eternal.
Let the house of Aaron say,
God's love is eternal.
Let all those who revere Adonai say,
God's love is eternal.

Our redemption  is not yet complete, but as we raise the final cup of wine in rememberance of the fourth promise of redemption, our hearts beat strong with hope. As it is said:

I will TAKE YOU to be my people, and I will be your God. 

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם בּוֹרֵא פְּרִי הַגָּפֶן

Baruch atah Adonai, eloheinu melech ha-olam, borei p'ri ha-gafen.

We priase you, Eternal God, Ruler of the Universe, who created the fruit of the vine!
