John and I were putting together the misselette for his upcoming marriage to Russian bride, Ludmila. Naturally some parts have to be in Russian so that the visitors can follow the ceremony.

Luckily there are several resources online from which we can draw. John's Russian language skills are rudimentary; mine non-existant.

Case in point:

When the index of Psalms differed in the Russian online bible to those of the English version (probably a human error crept in someplace) we settled on what we THOUGHT was the correct psalm... Good job we double-checked.

The Pslam we THOUGHT we'd chosen instead read:

"...rescue me from the power of foreigners,
who never tell the truth
and lie even under oath."

Wouldn't that make a merry wedding if we'd copied its Russian version into the leaflet?
