Irmos: As Israel walked across the dry land, with footsteps across the abyss, seeing the persecutor Pharaoh drowned, we sing a victorious song to God, crying out.
Like on dry land - like on dry land. By walking - by walking. Let us sing a victory song to God, crying out - (The people of Israel) exclaimed: “Let us sing a victory song to God!” (this is exactly how this passage should be written, with quotation marks, when rendering it in modern writing, especially since the somewhat unusual word order for us makes it difficult to understand).
Chorus: Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Note: In the canons, the chorus as a prayer appeal is pronounced before the first and second (and third, if there is one) troparion of each song, but is not read before the troparion beginning with Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit and And now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Now I, a sinner and burdened, have come to you, my Master and God; I don’t dare look at heaven, only I pray, saying: give me, Lord, mind, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me.
Oh, woe to me, a sinner! I am the most damned man of all; there is no repentance in me; Give me, Lord, tears, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Slava:
Mad, wretched man, waste time in laziness; think about your life, and turn to the Lord God, and weep bitterly over your deeds.
And now:
Most Pure Mother of God, look at me, a sinner, and deliver me from the snare of the devil, and guide me on the path of repentance, so that I may weep bitterly for my deeds.
Az – I. Verb - speaking. Give it - give it. More than that. No - no.
