Psalm 119 from Hebrew name
iOS Universel / Style de vie
Psalm 119 helps you recite Tehillim 119 in memory of a loved one — l'iluy nishmat.
Psalm 119 is the great acrostic psalm: eight verses for every letter of the Hebrew alphabet. By tradition, we honor the departed by reciting the verses whose opening letters spell out their Hebrew name, followed by the letters of the word נשמה ("neshama" — soul). This app builds that personalized selection for you in seconds.
HOW IT WORKS
• Enter the Hebrew name and the parent's name.
• Choose man or woman, and whether to include נשמה.
• Tap Generate — the app assembles the exact Psalm 119 verses that spell the name, each section headed by its highlighted letter.
NEW — PHONETIC MODE
Can't read Hebrew? Read along in transliteration.
• Languages: English, French, Spanish.
• Traditions (Minhag): Sephardi, Ashkenazi, Edot HaMizrach, Yemenite — so the pronunciation matches your custom (for example kamatz "a" or "o", and "Shabbat" vs "Shabbos").
• Display Hebrew only, phonetics only, or both side by side.

• Your settings and last name entered are remembered on your device.
