translation for hobbitsister

"Baruch ata adonai, eloheynu melech ha-olam, asher kidd'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tsivanu l'hadleek ner shel Hanukkah."
"Blessed art thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by thy commandments and has commanded us to light the Hanukkah lights."

jewish people believe that God's name should not be spoken or written (hence the lack of vowels in YHWH), because doing so could cause His name to be dishonored.
