ומלפניך מלכנו ריקם אל תשיבנו

ומלפניך מלכנו ריקם אל תשיבנו
AND FROM BEFORE YOU OUR KING DO NOT TURN US BACK EMPTY-HANDED

We stand in supplication “מלפניך”, “before You”, for our Emunah and trust is only in You. May it be in this merit of our trust in You that our tefillos be answered and we not be turned away empty-handed. Furthermore, by turning only to You we demonstrate that only You are “מלכנו”, “our King”. For this as well, for the sake of the honor of the King, we ask that we not be put to shame and be turned back with nothing, empty-handed, with not even a part of our request fulfilled.
