Prayers in Hebrew עברית
20 prayers this site holds in Hebrew, each printed from a named edition and checked against it before it was published.
The Hebrew here is a vocalised Masoretic text, and it is verified differently from everything else on this site. Two blind transcription passes work on a page a person reads and retypes; a pointed Hebrew text is a character encoding, and the failure it invites is not a misread word but a missing vowel point, which looks like nothing at all. So two independently maintained editions were compared character by character, vowel points included, and every verse agreed.
What is missing is liturgical rather than biblical. The Kaddish, the Amidah and the framing paragraphs of the prayer book are siddur compositions that no Masoretic edition contains. Their public-domain Hebrew is in Singer's prayer book, where it cannot be read from the scan: the text layer was produced as English, so the Hebrew half of every page came out as noise and exists only as an image. Mi Sheberach is not in that edition at all. Those prayers have pages here that say so.
These are traditional texts, not composed ones. The composer on this site assembles prayers from clause banks that were written by people, and there is no Hebrew bank, so there is nothing honest to compose from. Machine-translating a prayer would be the easy answer and the wrong one.
