Russian

10I am weighted down with many an iron fetter,

so that I am rejectedb because of my sins,

and I have no relief,

for I have provoked your wrath

and have done what is evil in your sight,

setting up abominations and multiplying offenses.*

Supplication for Pardon

11And now I bend the knee of my heart,

imploring you for your kindness.
