I am sure this has come up before, so if it has, please help me narrow down the search on the site:
A friend of mine pointed out a clip from an episode of Frasier where Frasier inadvertently blesses his son at his Barmitzfah in Klingon mistaking it for Yiddish; then my friend asked if I could translate it. I can't quite make out what he is saying (it's very poorly pronounced and interrupted) and all my book are still locked away from me until I get back from Iraq.
I came up with what I think he is trying to say and a VERY rough translation. I am sure I got some things and most wrong. If anyone could help, I would appreciate it.

My friend phoenetically copied it as;
