6. Recite the Shema Yisrael

Hebrew text:

This is what it means (say this if you don't read Hebrew):

Hear, O Israel, the L-rd is our G-d, the L-rd is One.

Blessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom forever and ever.

You shall love the L-rd your G-d with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your might. And these words which I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them thoroughly to your children, and you shall speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road, when you lie down and when you rise up. You shall bind them as a sign upon your arm, and they shall be for a reminder between your eyes. And you shall write them upon the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.

Transliteration:

She-ma Yis-ro-el Ado-noy Elo-hay-nu Ado-noy Ech-od.

Bo-ruch Shaym Ke-vod Mal-chu-so Le-olom Vo-ed.
