בְּבִרְכַּת הַמָּזוֹן קוֹדֶם מַיִם אַחֲרוֹנִים
In [preparation for] the Grace after Meals, before washing the fingertips for mayim acharonim,
אוֹמְרִים עַל נַהֲרוֹת בָּבֶל, לַמְּנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינוֹת, אֲבָרְכָה, זֶה חֵלֶק
we recite the psalms Al naharos Bavel, Lamenatzeiach bineginos, then [the bracket of verses beginning] Avarchah, and the verse, Zeh chelek.
בְּיוֹם שֶׁאֵין אוֹמְרִים בּוֹ תַּחֲנוּן
On a day when Tachanun is not recited,
שִׁיר הַמַעֲלוֹת בְּשׁוּב, לִבְנֵי קֹרַח, אֲבָרְכָה, זֶה חֵלֶק
we recite the psalms that begin Shir hamaalos beshuv and Livnei Korach [instead of the two psalms mentioned above], then [the bracket of verses beginning] Avarchah, and the verse, Zeh chelek.
אַחַר מַיִם אַחֲרוֹנִים וַיְדַבֵּר אֵלַי
After washing the fingertips with mayim acharonim, we recite the verse Vaydaber eilai.
