Finding a lost item
רִבּוֹנוֹ שֶׁל עוֹלָם, גָּלוּי וְיָדוּעַ לְפָנֶיךָ שֶׁלֹּא לְתַעֲנוּג וְלֹא לְכָבוֹד עָשִׂיתִי, אֶלָּא לְצֹרֶךְ הַחַיִּים עָשִׂיתִי, וְנֶאֱבַד לִי חֵפֶץ פְּלוֹנִי (Lost item). יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶיךָ, ה' אֱלֹהַי וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתַי, שֶׁתַּעֲזְרֵנִי לְמָצְאוֹ מְהֵרָה בְּלֹא טִרְחָה וּבְלִי עִכּוּב, כִּי לְךָ הַכֹּחַ וְהַגְּבוּרָה לַעֲשׂוֹת כָּל דָּבָר, וְיֵאָמֵר אָמֵן.
Master of the Universe, it is known before You that I did not acquire this item for luxury or pride, but for my daily needs. Yet it has become lost from me [mention the item, e.g., “my keys,” “my wallet,” etc.].
May it be Your will, Lord my G-d and G-d of my fathers, that You help me find it quickly and easily, without stress or delay. For Yours is the power and the might to accomplish all things. Amen.
After Using the Bathroom
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר יָצַר אֶת הָאָדָם בְּחָכְמָה, וּבָרָא בוֹ נְקָבִים נְקָבִים חֲלוּלִים חֲלוּלִים. גָּלוּי וְיָדוּעַ לִפְנֵי כִסֵּא כְבוֹדֶךָ, שֶׁאִם יִפָּתֵחַ אֶחָד מֵהֶם, אוֹ יִסָּתֵם אֶחָד מֵהֶם, אִי אֶפְשָׁר לְהִתְקַיֵּם וְלַעֲמוֹד לְפָנֶיךָ אַפִילוּ שָׁעָה אֶחָת. בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, רוֹפֵא כָּל בָּשָׂר וּמַפְלִיא לַעֲשׂוֹת.
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, Who formed man with wisdom and created within him many openings and cavities. It is obvious and known before Your glorious throne that if but one of them were to be opened (when it should be closed), or closed (when it should be open), it would be impossible to survive and to stand before You for even one hour. Blessed are You, Lord, Who heals all flesh and performs wonders.
When Traveling
יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶיךָ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ שֶׁתּוֹלִיכֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם וְתַצְעִידֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם וְתַדְרִיכֵנוּ לְשָׁלוֹם וְתַגִּיעֵנוּ לִמְחוֹז חֶפְצֵנוּ לְחַיִּים וְלִשְׂמְחָה וְלִשְׁלוֹם וְתַצִּילֵנוּ מִכַּף כָּל אוֹיֵב וְאוֹרֵב בַּדֶּרֶךְ וּמִכָּל מִינֵי פֻּרְעָנִיּוֹת הַמִּתְרַגְּשׁוֹת לָבוֹא לָעוֹלָם וְתִשְׁלַח בְּרָכָה בְּכָל מַעֲשֵׂה יָדֵינוּ וְתִתְּנֵנוּ לְחֵן וּלְחֶסֶד וּלְרַחֲמִים בְּעֵינֶיךָ וּבְעֵינֵי כָּל רוֹאֵינוּ וְתִשְׁמַע קוֹל תַּחֲנוּנֵינוּ כִּי אֵל שׁוֹמֵעַ תְּפִלָּה וְתַחֲנוּן אָתָּה בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ שׁוֹמֵעַ תְּפִלָּה.
May it be Your will, Lord our God and God of our ancestors, that You lead us toward peace, guide our footsteps toward peace, and direct us toward peace. May You bring us in peace to our destination for life, joy, and peace. Save us from every enemy and ambush along the way, and from all calamities that come to the world. Send blessing upon the work of our hands, and grant us grace, kindness, and mercy in Your eyes and in the eyes of all who see us. Hear our prayer, for You are God Who listens to prayer and supplication. Blessed are You, Lord, Who hears prayer.
