Taking out the Torah

Nitzavim-Vayelech
5784
English

When taking out the Torah, we recite the 13 Attributes of Divine Mercy (Hashem Hashem Keil Rachum etc.) three times.

These 13 Attributes should not be recited if praying without a minyan. But the paragraph following it (the Ribono Shel Olam) may be said.
