THE RETURN OF THE TORAH
We stand up, the Torah Scroll is taken and placed back, then we read:
EITZ CHAYIM (TREE OF LIFE)
Beresheet 2:9
Eitz chayim hi lamachazikim ba, v’tomecheha me-ushar
Deracheha - darchei no-am, v’chol netivotecha shalom
Hashiveinu HASHEM (ADONAI) eilecha v'nashuva
Chadeish chadeish yameinu
Chadeish yameinu ke’kedem
A Tree of Life to those who hold fast to it,
and all who cling to it find happiness.
Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace
