Пѣ́снь степе́ней.

¹

A Song of Degrees. If it had not been that the Lord was among us, let Israel now say;

¹

Я́ко а́ще не Госпо́дь бы бы́лъ въ на́съ, да рече́тъ у́бо Ізра́иль:

²

if it had not been that the Lord was among us, when men rose up against us;

²

я́ко а́ще не Госпо́дь бы бы́лъ въ на́съ, внегда́ воста́ти человѣ́комъ на ны́, у́бо живы́хъ поже́рли бы́ша на́съ:

³

verily they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us:

³

внегда́ прогнѣ́ватися я́рости и́хъ на ны́, у́бо вода́ потопи́ла бы на́съ.

⁴

verily the water would have drowned us, our soul would have gone under the torrent.

⁴

Пото́къ пре́йде душа́ на́ша:

⁵

Yea, our soul would have gone under the overwhelming water.

⁵

у́бо пре́йде душа́ на́ша во́ду непостоя́нную.

⁶

Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us for a prey to their teeth.

⁶

Благослове́нъ Госпо́дь, и́же не даде́ на́съ въ лови́тву зубо́мъ и́хъ.

⁷

Our soul has been delivered as a sparrow from the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are delivered.

⁷

Душа́ на́ша я́ко пти́ца изба́вися от сѣ́ти ловя́щихъ: сѣ́ть сокруши́ся, и мы́ изба́влени бы́хомъ.

⁸

Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

⁸

По́мощь на́ша во и́мя Го́спода, сотво́ршаго не́бо и зе́млю.
