Hebrews § 333
do not refuse Him that speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven…” And I beseech you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written a letter unto you in few words. Know that our brother Timothy has been set free, with whom I shall see you if he comes shortly. Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. Those in Italy salute you. Grace be with you all. Amen.

§ 34
Mark 8.22-26 § 34
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.
Καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς Βηθσαϊδά. καὶ φέρουσιν αὐτῷ τυφλὸν καὶ παρακαλοῦσιν αὐτὸν ἵνα αὐτοῦ ἅψηται.
[Заⷱ҇ 34] И҆ прїи́де въ виѳсаі́дꙋ: и҆ приведо́ша къ немꙋ̀ слѣ́па, и҆ молѧ́хꙋ є҆го̀, да є҆гѡ̀ ко́снетсѧ.
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
καὶ ἐπιλαβόμενος τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ τυφλοῦ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἔξω τῆς κώμης, καὶ πτύσας εἰς τὰ ὄμματα αὐτοῦ, ἐπιθεὶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῷ ἐπηρώτα αὐτὸν εἴ τι βλέπει.
И҆ є҆́мь за рꙋ́кꙋ слѣпа́го, и҆зведѐ є҆го̀ во́нъ и҆з̾ ве́си: и҆ плю́нꙋвъ на ѻ҆́чи є҆гѡ̀, (и҆) возло́жь рꙋ́цѣ на́нь, вопроша́ше є҆го̀, а҆́ще что̀ ви́дитъ;
And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
καὶ ἀναβλέψας ἔλεγε· βλέπω τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ὡς δένδρα περιπατοῦντας.
И҆ воззрѣ́въ глаго́лаше: ви́жꙋ человѣ́ки ꙗ҆́кѡ дре́вїе ходѧ́щѧ.
After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
εἶτα πάλιν ἐπέθηκε τὰς χεῖρας ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν ἀναβλέψαι, καὶ ἀποκατεστάθη, καὶ ἐνέβλεψε τηλαυγῶς ἅπαντας.
Пото́мъ (же) па́ки возложѝ рꙋ́цѣ на ѻ҆́чи є҆гѡ̀ и҆ сотворѝ є҆го̀ прозрѣ́ти: и҆ ᲂу҆твори́сѧ {и҆ и҆сцѣлѣ̀} и҆ ᲂу҆зрѣ̀ свѣ́тлѡ всѐ.
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ λέγων· μηδὲ εἰς τὴν κώμην εἰσέλθῃς μηδὲ εἴπῃς τινὶ ἐν τῇ κώμῃ.
И҆ посла̀ є҆го̀ въ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀, гл҃ѧ: ни въ ве́сь вни́ди, ни повѣ́ждь комꙋ̀ въ ве́си.
