Mi SheBerach

I need the English translation of the text of the “Misheberach” that is said to honor the person being called to the Torah reading.

Hi,
The translation for that blessing is:
He who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – may He bless (Hebrew name son or father’s name) because he has come to the Torah in honor of the Omnipresent, in honor of the Torah (in honor of the sabbath or festival, if applicable). As a reward for this, may the Holy One, Blessed is He protect him and rescue him from every trouble and distress, from every plague and illness; and may He send blessing and success in his every
endeavor (on a festival add: and may he be privileged to ascend to Jerusalem for the pilgrimage) together with all Israel, his brethren. Now let us respond: Amen.

Thanks,
Rabbi Litt
