Sim Shalom (Hebrew: שִׁים שָׂלוֹם‎‎; "Grant Peace") is a blessing that is recited at the end of the morning Amidah in the Ashkenazic tradition. There is a different version of this prayer, Shalom Rav (שָׁלוֹם רָב), for the evening Amidah. In the Sefardic, Chasidic-Sefardic, and Nusach Ari rites, Sim Shalom is said at all prayer services.

English Translation of Sim Shalom

Grant peace everywhere goodness and blessing,

Grace, lovingkindness and mercy to us and unto all Israel, Your people.

Bless us, our Father, all of us as one with the light of Your face;

For by the light of Your face You have given us, Adonai our God,

The Torah of life, and love of kindness, and righteousness and blessing and mercy and life and peace;

And may it be good in Your eyes to bless Your people Israel at all times and in every hour with Your peace.

Praised are You, Adonai, who blesses His people Israel with peace.
