I think the original text seems to be weak here.

BEGIN <statements> END is a Compound Statement and not a bracket. You
don't have to put a block of statements between a BEGIN and an END.
The idea is different: A procedure or an IF THEN/ELSE/WHILE block or
whatever is made up of one statement. And if you want to have more
than one statement you have to use a compound statement. (A procedure
body always being a compound statement, but that's another story.)

I think it's extremely difficult for a translator who is used to
translating commercial or legal texts to do such a highly technical
translation. Isn't there somebody out there in the Russian speaking
Firebird community who could do a first translation?
