Sefirat HaOmer - "Count for yourselves, from the day after the Holiday..."

Transliterated Version of Sefirat HaOmer

The following is a transliterated version of "Sefirat HaOmer," from the Alef-Bet into the English Alphabet.

(Note the variation indicated by "ba-omer (or la-omer)" which refers to the two traditional texts in use for the Sefirat HaOmer.

In one translation, "ba," the preposition is "in" as in "in the count of the Omer." In the other, "la," the preposition has the meaning "of " as in "of the Omer count."

In the translation below, we have used the "of" form, corresponding to "la," but in this technical matter of custom, ("ba" or "la"?), one should follow the practice of his or her community or place of worship.)
