    ברוך דיין האמת

    (p.s. you guys don’t really believe there’s more than one “true judge”, do you?)

    R’ Shlomo,
    Yi’yasher kochakha; your point is well taken. In deference to the previous distinguished commentors, with your kind permission I would reformulate your comment as follows:

    ברוך דיין האמת

    (p.s. I am adding the letter “hay” in “ha’emet”, to reflect the reality that there is only one true Judge, HKB”H)
