Ashrei
“Happy are those who dwell in Your house.” Psalm 145, said three times every day — once you can read its opening, you'll recognize it at every service.
Ashrei yoshvei veitecha, od y'hal'lucha selah.
Happy are those who dwell in Your house; they will praise You forever.

Aromimcha Elohai hamelech, va'avarchah shimcha l'olam va'ed.
I will exalt You, my God the King, and bless Your name forever and ever.
