Which chapter of Tehillim should be recited in honor of a birthday?
Question
Honored rabbi, good evening. Today is my birthday, and I would like to know which chapter of Tehillim should be recited in honor of a birthday. Another question: is it true that the birthday person has tremendous power for prayers and requests?
Thank you very much.
Answer
Greetings and blessings
Congratulations! May you merit healthy and good years, a life filled with awe of Heaven. Some have written that on a birthday there is a special power for prayers. All chapters are equal.
With blessings,
