# eloheinu melech haolam (אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם)

pronounced: e-lo-HEI-nu ME-lekh ha-o-LAM


**“Our God, King of the universe” — the words that complete every Jewish blessing after Baruch Ata Adonai**

## In Scripture

> Therefore David blessed Yahweh before all the assembly; and David said, “You are blessed, Yahweh, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.
> — 1 Chronicles 29:10 (Traditional background — David’s public blessing supplies the biblical cadence behind “Blessed are You”; the later formula is not present verbatim.)

> For God is the King of all the earth. Sing praises with understanding.
> — Psalm 47:7 (Root components — God is called King of all the earth, the closest biblical statement of the formula’s full claim.)
