May the Lord make to arise within you the power of His love, and through the observation of fastings pour forth in you the gift of His blessing. Amen. Thus you offer holocausts of your frugality to Him, so that you are pleasing by your contriteness of heart, and sacrifice of humility. Amen. Thus may your prayer of the fast and alms-giving and other things which are elevated arise unto the ears of your Creator, so that you may be made inheritors of eternal blessing, and be made to consort with the supernal community. Amen.May He Whose Kingdom and Dominion remain without end, be pleased to sustain us unto ages of ages. Amen. May the blessing of God: the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and the peace of the Lord be ever with you. Amen.
