בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו, וְצִוָּֽנוּ עַל מִקְרָא מְגִלָּה:

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, שֶׁעָשָׂה נִסִּים לַאֲבוֹתֵינוּ, בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם בִּזְּמַן הַזֶּה:

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, שֶׁהֶחֱיָֽנוּ וְקִיְּמָנוּ וְהִגִּיעָֽנוּ לִזְּמַן הַזֶּה:

The following blessing is recited by the reader after the reading only when a minyan is present.

Translation

Blessed are You, G‑d our L-rd, King of the universe, Who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us concerning the reading of the Megillah.

Blessed are You, G‑d our L-rd, King of the universe, Who performed miracles for our ancestors in those days, at this time.

Blessed are You, G‑d our L-rd, King of the universe, Who has granted us life, sustained us, and enabled us to reach this occasion.

Blessed are You, G‑d our L-rd, King of the universe, Who champions our cause, judges our case, avenges our wrongs, exacts retribution for us from our adversaries, and repays all the enemies of our soul. Blessed are You, G‑d, Who exacts retribution for His people Israel from all their oppressors, the G‑d Who delivers.

The rose of Jacob rejoiced and was glad when they together beheld the sky-blue garments of Mordechai. You were their salvation forever, and their hope throughout every generation. To proclaim that all who hope in You shall never be put to shame, nor shall all who take refuge in You ever be disgraced. Cursed is Haman who sought to destroy me; blessed is Mordechai the Jew. Cursed is Zeresh, the wife of my terror; blessed is Esther who pleaded for me. Cursed are all the wicked; blessed are all the righteous—and also Charvonah is remembered for good.
