For the voice:
I entreat you Paskon, Atmon, Sagron: Paskon, that my voice not stop: Atmon, that my throat not be sealed; Sagron, that my throat not be closed. May it be your will, God and Lord of our fathers, to give me a fine and pleasing voice, and may it not stop, and may my throat not become agitated, and may my voice be fine, pleasing, and strong, as it is written: As the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and the voice of God answered him (Exodus 19:19). In the names of Shemaiah, Sariel, Kitmon, Pismon, Asa, Astmar, Sanmaglof: I, So-and-So adjure them to help me pray today with a loud, fine, and pleasing voice, that my throat not become agitated, and that my spirit and strength not become weary.
