Don’t hold the iniquities of our forefathers against us. Let your tender mercies speedily meet us, for we are in desperate need.
Coptic English (عن القبطية)
Remember not our old transgressions; let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us; for we are greatly impoverished.
Greek • يوناني (السبعينية / الأصلية)
Διοτι εν τη χειρι του Κυριου ειναι ποτηριον πληρες κερασματος οινου ακρατου, και εκ τουτου θελει χυσει· πλην την τρυγιαν αυτου θελουσι στραγγισει παντες οι ασεβεις της γης και θελουσι πιει.
Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let it be known among the nations, before our eyes, that vengeance for your servants’ blood is being poured out.
Coptic English (عن القبطية)
Lets haply they should say among the heathen, Where is their God? and let the avenging of thy servant’s blood that has been shed be known among the heathen before our eyes.
Greek • يوناني (السبعينية / الأصلية)
Και παντα τα κερατα των ασεβων θελω συντριψει· τα δε κερατα των δικαιων θελουσιν υψωθη.
