These lights we kindle for the miracles, the wonders, the salvations and the battles that You performed for our ancestors in those days, at this season, through Your holy priests. Throughout the eight days of Chanukah these lights are holy; we are not permitted to make use of them, only to look at them, in order to thank and praise Your great Name for Your miracles, Your wonders and Your salvations.
