Не отвержи мене во время старости: Do not reject me in my old age;
внегда оскудевати крепости моей Do not forsake me
не остави мене. when my strength fails.
Яко реша врази мои мне, For my enemies talk about me.
и стрегущии душу мою Those who watch for my soul
совещаша вкупе, глаголюще: conspire together, saying,
Бог оставил есть его, “God has forsaken him.
пожените и имите его, Pursue and take him,
яко несть избавляяй. for no one will rescue him.”
Боже мой, не удалися от мене: God, don’t be far from me.
Боже мой, в помощь мою вонми. My God, hurry to help me.
Да постыдятся и изчезнут Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed.
оклеветающии душу мою. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
