2 Forefeast of the Annunciation of the Theotokos

AND after these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram, I shield thee, thy reward shall be very great.

ΜΕΤΑ δὲ τὰ ρήματα ταῦτα ἐγενήθη ρῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς ῞Αβραμ ἐν ὁράματι, λέγων· μὴ φοβοῦ ῞Αβραμ, ἐγὼ ὑπερασπίζω σου· ὁ μισθός σου πολὺς ἔσται σφόδρα.

По глаго́лѣхъ же си́хъ, бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко а҆вра́мꙋ въ видѣ́нїи но́щїю, гл҃ѧ: не бо́йсѧ, а҆вра́ме: а҆́зъ защища́ю тѧ̀, мзда̀ твоѧ̀ мно́га бꙋ́детъ ѕѣлѡ̀.

And Abram said, Master [and] Lord, what wilt thou give me? whereas I am departing without a child, but the son of Masek my home-born female slave, this Eliezer of Damascus [is mine heir.]

λέγει δὲ ῞Αβραμ· δέσποτα Κύριε, τί μοι δώσεις; ἐγὼ δὲ ἀπολύομαι ἄτεκνος· ὁ δὲ υἱὸς Μασὲκ τῆς οἰκογενοῦς μου, οὗτος Δαμασκὸς ᾿Ελιέζερ.

Глаго́ла же а҆вра́мъ: влⷣко гдⷭ҇и, что́ ми да́си; а҆́зъ же ѿпꙋща́юсѧ безча́денъ: сы́нъ же масе́къ домоча́дицы моеѧ̀, се́й дама́скъ є҆лїе́зеръ.

And Abram said, [I am grieved] since thou hast given me no seed, but my home-born [servant] shall succeed me.

καὶ εἶπεν ῞Αβραμ· ἐπειδὴ ἐμοὶ οὐκ ἔδωκας σπέρμα, ὁ δὲ οἰκογενής μου κληρονομήσει μοι.

И҆ речѐ а҆вра́мъ: поне́же мнѣ̀ не да́лъ є҆сѝ сѣ́мене, домоча́децъ же мо́й наслѣ́дникъ мо́й бꙋ́детъ.

And immediately there was a voice of the Lord to him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come out of thee shall be thine heir.

καὶ εὐθὺς φωνὴ Κυρίου ἐγένετο πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγουσα· οὐ κληρονομήσει σε οὗτος, ἀλλ᾿ ὃς ἐξελεύσεται ἐκ σοῦ, οὗτος κληρονομήσει σε.

И҆ а҆́бїе гла́съ гдⷭ҇ень бы́сть къ немꙋ̀, гл҃ющїй: не бꙋ́детъ се́й наслѣ́дникъ тво́й, но и҆́же и҆зы́детъ и҆з̾ тебє̀, то́й бꙋ́детъ наслѣ́дникъ тебѣ̀.

And he brought him out and said to him, Look up now to heaven, and count the stars, if thou shalt be able to number them fully, and he said, Thus shall thy seed be.

ἐξήγαγε δὲ αὐτὸν ἔξω καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ἀνάβλεψον δὴ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἀρίθμησον τοὺς ἀστέρας, εἰ δυνήσῃ ἐξαριθμῆσαι αὐτούς. καὶ εἶπεν· οὕτως ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα σου.

И҆зведе́ же є҆го̀ во́нъ и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: воззрѝ на не́бо и҆ и҆зочтѝ ѕвѣ́зды, а҆́ще возмо́жеши и҆счестѝ ѧ҆̀. И҆ речѐ: та́кѡ бꙋ́детъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ.

And Abram believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.

καὶ ἐπίστευσεν ῞Αβραμ τῷ Θεῷ, καὶ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην.

И҆ вѣ́рова а҆вра́мъ бг҃ꙋ, и҆ вмѣни́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀ въ пра́вдꙋ.

And he said to him, I am God that brought thee out of the land of the Chaldeans, so as to give thee this land to inherit.

εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτόν· ἐγὼ ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ἐξαγαγών σε ἐκ χώρας Χαλδαίων, ὥστε δοῦναί σοι τὴν γῆν ταύτην κληρονομῆσαι.

Рече́ же къ немꙋ̀: а҆́зъ (є҆́смь) бг҃ъ и҆зведы́й тѧ̀ ѿ страны̀ халде́йскїѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ да́ти тебѣ̀ зе́млю сїю̀ наслѣ́дствовати.

And he said, Master [and] Lord, how shall I know that I shall inherit it?

εἶπε δέ, Δέσποτα Κύριε, κατὰ τί γνώσομαι ὅτι κληρονομήσω αὐτήν;

И҆ речѐ: влⷣко гдⷭ҇и, по чесомꙋ̀ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ю, ꙗ҆́кѡ наслѣ́дити ю҆̀ и҆́мамъ;

And he said to him, Take for me an heifer in her third year, and a she-goat in her third year, and a ram in his third year, and a dove and a pigeon.

εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ· λάβε μοι δάμαλιν τριετίζουσαν καὶ αἶγα τριετίζουσαν καὶ κριὸν τριετίζοντα καὶ τρυγόνα καὶ περιστεράν.

Рече́ же къ немꙋ̀: возмѝ мнѣ̀ ю҆́ницꙋ трилѣ́тнꙋ и҆ ко́зꙋ трилѣ́тнꙋ и҆ ѻ҆вна̀ трилѣ́тна, и҆ го́рлицꙋ и҆ го́лꙋбѧ.

So he took to him all these, and divided them in the midst, and set them opposite to each other, but the birds he did not divide.

ἔλαβε δὲ αὐτῷ πάντα ταῦτα καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτὰ μέσα καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὰ ἀντιπρόσωπα ἀλλήλοις, τὰ δὲ ὄρνεα οὐ διεῖλε.

Взѧ́ же ѻ҆́нъ всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ и҆ раздѣлѝ ѧ҆̀ на по́лы, и҆ положѝ ѧ҆̀ противоли̑чна є҆ди́на ко дрꙋго́мꙋ: пти́цъ же не раздѣлѝ.

And birds came down upon the bodies, [even] upon the divided parts of them, and Abram sat down by them.

κατέβη δὲ ὄρνεα ἐπὶ τὰ σώματα, ἐπὶ τὰ διχοτομήματα αὐτῶν, καὶ συνεκάθησεν αὐτοῖς ῞Αβραμ.

Слетѣ́ша же пти̑цы на тѣлеса̀ растє́санаѧ и҆́хъ: и҆ сѣ́де бли́зꙋ и҆́хъ а҆вра́мъ.

And about sunset a trance fell upon Abram, and lo! a great gloomy terror falls upon him.

περὶ δὲ ἡλίου δυσμὰς ἔκστασις ἐπέπεσε τῷ ῞Αβραμ, καὶ ἰδοὺ φόβος σκοτεινὸς μέγας ἐπιπίπτει αὐτῷ.

Заходѧ́щꙋ же со́лнцꙋ, ᲂу҆́жасъ нападѐ на а҆вра́ма, и҆ сѐ, стра́хъ те́менъ ве́лїй нападѐ на́нь.

And it was said to Abram, Thou shalt surely know that thy seed shall be a sojourner in a land not their own, and they shall enslave them, and afflict them, and humble them four hundred years.

καὶ ἐρρέθη πρὸς ῞Αβραμ· γινώσκων γνώσῃ ὅτι πάροικον ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα σου ἐν γῇ οὐκ ἰδίᾳ, καὶ δουλώσουσιν αὐτοὺς καὶ κακώσουσιν αὐτοὺς καὶ ταπεινώσουσιν αὐτοὺς τετρακόσια ἔτη.

И҆ рече́но бы́сть ко а҆вра́мꙋ: вѣ́дый ᲂу҆вѣ́си, ꙗ҆́кѡ пресе́льно бꙋ́детъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ въ землѝ не свое́й, и҆ порабо́тѧтъ ѧ҆̀, и҆ ѡ҆ѕло́бѧтъ ѧ҆̀, и҆ смирѧ́тъ ѧ҆̀ лѣ́тъ четы́риста:

And the nation whomsoever they shall serve I will judge; and after this, they shall come forth hither with much property.

τὸ δὲ ἔθνος, ᾧ ἐὰν δουλεύσωσι, κρινῶ ἐγώ· μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα ἐξελεύσονται ὧδε μετὰ ἀποσκευῆς πολλῆς.

ꙗ҆зы́кꙋ же, є҆мꙋ́же порабо́таютъ, сꙋждꙋ̀ а҆́зъ: по си́хъ же и҆зы́дꙋтъ сѣ́мѡ со и҆мѣ́нїемъ мно́гимъ:

But thou shalt depart to thy fathers in peace, nourished in a good old age.

σὺ δὲ ἀπελεύσῃ πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας σου ἐν εἰρήνῃ, τραφεὶς ἐν γήρᾳ καλῷ.

ты́ же ѿи́деши ко ѻ҆тцє́мъ твои̑мъ въ ми́рѣ, препита́нъ въ ста́рости до́брѣй:

The lips of the wise are bound by discretion: but the hearts of the foolish are not safe.

)

Оу҆стнѣ̀ мꙋ́дрыхъ свѧзꙋ́ютсѧ чꙋ́вствомъ, сердца́ же безꙋ́мныхъ не твє́рда.

(MT)]

)

Оу҆стнѣ̀ мꙋ́дрыхъ свѧзꙋ́ютсѧ чꙋ́вствомъ, сердца́ же безꙋ́мныхъ не твє́рда.

The sacrifices of the ungodly are an abomination to the Lord; but the prayers of them that walk honestly are acceptable with him.

)

Жє́ртвы нечести́выхъ ме́рзость гдⷭ҇еви, ѡ҆бѣ́ты же правоходѧ́щихъ прїѧ́тни є҆мꙋ̀.

(MT)] 29β Let the heart of a man think justly, that his steps may be rightly ordered of God. [Proverbs 10,

)

Жє́ртвы нечести́выхъ ме́рзость гдⷭ҇еви, ѡ҆бѣ́ты же правоходѧ́щихъ прїѧ́тни є҆мꙋ̀.

The ways of an ungodly [man] are an abomination to the Lord; but he loves those that follow after righteousness.

)

Ме́рзость гдⷭ҇еви пꙋтїѐ нечести́выхъ: гонѧ́щыѧ же пра́вдꙋ лю́битъ.

(MT)]

)

Ме́рзость гдⷭ҇еви пꙋтїѐ нечести́выхъ: гонѧ́щыѧ же пра́вдꙋ лю́битъ.

The instruction of the simple is known by them that pass by; but they that hate reproofs die disgracefully.

παιδεία ἀκάκου γνωρίζεται ὑπὸ τῶν παριόντων, οἱ δὲ μισοῦντες ἐλέγχους τελευτῶσιν αἰσχρῶς.

Наказа́нїе неѕло́бивагѡ познава́етсѧ ѿ мимоходѧ́щихъ: ненави́дѧщїи же ѡ҆бличє́нїѧ скончава́ютсѧ сра́мнѡ.

Hell and destruction are manifest to the Lord; how shall not also be the hearts of men?

ᾅδης καὶ ἀπώλεια φανερὰ παρὰ τῷ Κυρίῳ· πῶς οὐχὶ καὶ αἱ καρδίαι τῶν ἀνθρώπων;

А҆́дъ и҆ па́гꙋба ꙗ҆́вна пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, ка́кѡ не и҆ сердца̀ человѣ́кѡвъ;

An uninstructed person will not love those that reprove him; neither will he associate with the wise.

οὐκ ἀγαπήσει ἀπαίδευτος τοὺς ἐλέγχοντας αὐτόν, μετὰ δὲ σοφῶν οὐχ ὁμιλήσει.

Не возлю́битъ ненака́занный ѡ҆блича́ющихъ є҆го̀, съ мꙋ́дрыми же не побесѣ́дꙋетъ.

When the heart rejoices the countenance is cheerful; but when it is in sorrow, [the countenance] is sad.

καρδίας εὐφραινομένης πρόσωπον θάλλει, ἐν δὲ λύπαις οὔσης σκυθρωπάζει.

Се́рдцꙋ веселѧ́щꙋсѧ, лицѐ цвѣте́тъ: въ печа́лехъ же сꙋ́щꙋ, сѣ́тꙋетъ.

An upright heart seeks discretion; but the mouth of the uninstructed will experience evils.

καρδία ὀρθὴ ζητεῖ αἴσθησιν, στόμα δὲ ἀπαιδεύτων γνώσεται κακά.

Се́рдце пра́вое и҆́щетъ чꙋ́вства: ᲂу҆ста́ же ненака́занныхъ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ютъ ѕла̑ѧ.

The eyes of the wicked are always looking for evil things; but the good are always quiet.

πάντα τὸν χρόνον οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ τῶν κακῶν προσδέχονται κακά, οἱ δὲ ἀγαθοὶ ἡσυχάζουσι διαπαντός.

На всѧ́ко вре́мѧ ѻ҆́чи ѕлы́хъ прїе́млютъ ѕла̑ѧ: до́брїи же безмо́лвствꙋютъ прⷭ҇нѡ.

Better is a small portion with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures without the fear [of the Lord].

κρεῖσσον μικρὰ μερὶς μετὰ φόβου Κυρίου ἢ θησαυροὶ μεγάλοι μετὰ ἀφοβίας.

Лꙋ́чше части́ца ма́лаѧ со стра́хомъ гдⷭ҇нимъ, не́жели сокрѡ́вища вє́лїѧ без̾ боѧ́зни.

Better is an entertainment of herbs with friendliness and kindness, than a feast of calves, with enmity.

κρείσσων ξενισμὸς μετὰ λαχάνων πρὸς φιλίαν καὶ χάριν ἢ παράθεσις μόσχων μετὰ ἔχθρας.

Лꙋ́чше ᲂу҆чрежде́нїе ѿ ѕе́лїй съ любо́вїю и҆ благода́тїю, не́жели представле́нїе тельцє́въ со враждо́ю.

A passionate man stirs up strife; but [he that is] slow to anger appeases even a rising one. 18α A man slow to anger will extinguish quarrels; but an ungodly man rather stirs [them] up.

α μακρόθυμος ἀνὴρ κατασβέσει κρίσεις, ὁ δὲ ἀσεβὴς ἐγείρει μᾶλλον.

Мꙋ́жъ ꙗ҆́рый ᲂу҆строѧ́етъ бра̑ни, долготерпѣли́вый же и҆ бꙋ́дꙋщꙋю ᲂу҆кроща́етъ. Терпѣли́вый мꙋ́жъ ᲂу҆гаси́тъ сꙋды̀, нечести́вый же воздвиза́етъ па́че.

The ways of sluggards are strewn with thorns; but those of the diligent are made smooth.

ὁδοὶ ἀεργῶν ἐστρωμέναι ἀκάνθαις, αἱ δὲ τῶν ἀνδρείων τετριμμέναι.

Пꙋтїѐ пра́здныхъ по́стлани те́рнїемъ, мꙋ́жественныхъ же ᲂу҆гла́ждени.

And Jacob went forth from the well of the oath, and departed into Charrhan.

Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ᾿Ιακὼβ ἀπὸ τοῦ φρέατος τοῦ ὅρκου καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Χαρράν.

И҆ ѿи́де і҆а́кѡвъ ѿ кла́дѧзѧ клѧ́твеннагѡ и҆ и҆́де въ харра́нъ,

And came to a certain place and slept there, for the sun had gone down; and he took [one] of the stones of the place, and put it at his head, and lay down to sleep in that place,

καὶ ἀπήντησε τόπῳ καὶ ἐκοιμήθῃ ἐκεῖ· ἔδυ γὰρ ὁ ἥλιος· καὶ ἔλαβεν ἀπὸ τῶν λίθων τοῦ τόπου, καὶ ἔθηκε πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐν τῷ τόπῳ ἐκείνῳ.

и҆ ѡ҆брѣ́те мѣ́сто и҆ ᲂу҆́спе та́мѡ, за́йде бо со́лнце: и҆ взѧ̀ ѿ ка́менїѧ мѣ́ста (тогѡ̀) и҆ положѝ въ возгла́вїе себѣ̀, и҆ спа̀ на мѣ́стѣ ѻ҆́нѣмъ.

and dreamed, and behold a ladder fixed on the earth, whose top reached to heaven, and the angels of God ascended and descended on it.

καὶ ἐνυπνιάσθη, καὶ ἰδοὺ κλίμαξ ἐστηριγμένη ἐν τῇ γῇ, ἧς ἡ κεφαλὴ ἀφικνεῖτο εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν, καὶ οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀνέβαινον καὶ κατέβαινον ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς.

И҆ со́нъ ви́дѣ: и҆ сѐ, лѣ́ствица ᲂу҆твержде́на на землѝ, є҆ѧ́же глава̀ досѧза́ше до небесѐ, и҆ а҆́гг҃ли бж҃їи восхожда́хꙋ и҆ низхожда́хꙋ по не́й:

And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of thy father Abraam, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed.

ὁ δὲ Κύριος ἐπεστήρικτο ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν· ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ Θεὸς ῾Αβραὰμ τοῦ πατρός σου, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισαάκ· μὴ φοβοῦ· ἡ γῆ, ἐφ᾿ ἧς σὺ καθεύδεις ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς, σοὶ δώσω αὐτήν, καὶ τῷ σπέρματί σου.

гдⷭ҇ь же ᲂу҆твержда́шесѧ на не́й и҆ речѐ: а҆́зъ є҆́смь бг҃ъ а҆враа́ма ѻ҆тца̀ твоегѡ̀ и҆ бг҃ъ і҆саа́ка, не бо́йсѧ: землѧ̀, и҆дѣ́же ты̀ спи́ши на не́й, тебѣ̀ да́мъ ю҆̀ и҆ сѣ́мени твоемꙋ̀:

And thy seed shall be as the sand of the earth; and it shall spread abroad to the sea, and the south, and the north, and to the east; and in thee and in thy seed shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.

καὶ ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα σου ὡς ἡ ἄμμος τῆς γῆς καὶ πλατυνθήσεται ἐπὶ θάλασσαν καὶ ἐπὶ λίβα καὶ ἐπὶ βορρᾶν, καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἀνατολάς, καὶ ἐνευλογηθήσονται ἐν σοὶ πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐν τῷ σπέρματί σου.

и҆ бꙋ́детъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ ꙗ҆́кѡ песо́къ земны́й, и҆ распространи́тсѧ на мо́ре, и҆ лі́вꙋ, и҆ сѣ́веръ, и҆ на восто́ки: и҆ благословѧ́тсѧ ѡ҆ тебѣ̀ всѧ̑ колѣ̑на зємна́ѧ и҆ ѡ҆ сѣ́мени твое́мъ:

And behold I am with thee to preserve thee continually in all the way wherein thou shalt go; and I will bring thee back to this land; for I will not desert thee, until I have done all that I have said to thee.

καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγώ εἰμι μετὰ σοῦ διαφυλάσσων σε ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ πάσῃ, οὗ ἂν πορευθῇς, καὶ ἀποστρέψω σε εἰς τὴν γῆν ταύτην, ὅτι οὐ μή σε ἐγκαταλίπω, ἕως τοῦ ποιῆσαί με πάντα ὅσα ἐλάλησά σοι.

и҆ сѐ, а҆́зъ є҆́смь съ тобо́ю, сохранѧ́ѧй тѧ̀ на всѧ́комъ пꙋтѝ, а҆́може а҆́ще по́йдеши, и҆ возвращꙋ́ тѧ въ зе́млю сїю̀: ꙗ҆́кѡ не и҆́мамъ тебѐ ѡ҆ста́вити, до́ндеже сотвори́ти мѝ всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка гл҃ахъ тебѣ̀.

And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and said, The Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.

καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ᾿Ιακὼβ ἐκ τοῦ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν· ὅτι ἔστι Κύριος ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ, ἐγὼ δὲ οὐκ ᾔδειν.

И҆ воста̀ і҆а́кѡвъ ѿ сна̀ своегѡ̀ и҆ речѐ: ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆́сть гдⷭ҇ь на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ, а҆́зъ же не вѣ́дѣхъ.

And he was afraid, and said, How fearful is this place! this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.

καὶ ἐφοβήθη καὶ εἶπεν· ὡς φοβερὸς ὁ τόπος οὗτος· οὐκ ἔστι τοῦτο ἀλλ᾿ ἢ οἶκος Θεοῦ, καὶ αὕτη ἡ πύλη τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.

И҆ ᲂу҆боѧ́сѧ и҆ речѐ: ꙗ҆́кѡ стра́шно мѣ́сто сїѐ: нѣ́сть сїѐ, но до́мъ бж҃їй, и҆ сїѧ̑ врата̀ нбⷭ҇наѧ.

And it shall come to pass from the eighth day and onward, [that] the priests shall offer your whole-burnt-offerings on the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord.

καὶ ἔσται ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας τῆς ὀγδόης καὶ ἐπέκεινα ποιήσουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου ὑμῶν. καὶ προσδέξομαι ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος.

И҆ сконча́ютъ се́дмь дні́й, и҆ бꙋ́детъ ѿ ѻ҆сма́гѡ днѐ и҆ пото́мъ, сотворѧ́тъ жерцы̀ на же́ртвенницѣ всесожжє́нїѧ ва̑ша и҆ ꙗ҆̀же спасе́нїѧ ва́шегѡ: и҆ прїимꙋ́ вы, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.

Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary that looks eastward; and it was shut.

ΚΑΙ ἐπέστρεψέ με κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῶν ἁγίων τῆς ἐξωτέρας τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολάς, καὶ αὕτη ἦν κεκλεισμένη.

И҆ ѡ҆брати́ мѧ на пꙋ́ть вра́тъ ст҃ы́хъ внѣ́шнихъ, зрѧ́щихъ на восто́ки: и҆ сїѧ̑ бѧ́хꙋ затворє́нна.

And the Lord said to me, This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no one shall pass through it; for the Lord God of Israel shall enter by it, and it shall be shut.

καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρός με· ἡ πύλη αὕτη κεκλεισμένη ἔσται, οὐκ ἀνοιχθήσεται, καὶ οὐδεὶς μὴ διέλθῃ δι’ αὐτῆς, ὅτι Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισραὴλ εἰσελεύσεται δι’ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἔσται κεκλεισμένη·

И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко мнѣ̀: сїѧ̑ врата̀ заключє́нна бꙋ́дꙋтъ и҆ не ѿве́рзꙋтсѧ, и҆ никто́же про́йдетъ и҆́ми: ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ вни́детъ и҆́ми, и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ заключє́нна.

For the prince, he shall sit in it, to eat bread before the Lord; he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go forth by the way of the same.

διότι ὁ ἡγούμενος, οὗτος καθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ τοῦ φαγεῖν ἄρτον ἐναντίον Κυρίου. κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης εἰσελεύσεται καὶ κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται. -

Занѐ старѣ́йшина се́й сѧ́детъ въ ни́хъ ꙗ҆́сти хлѣ́бъ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ: по пꙋтѝ є҆ла́ма {притво́ра} вра́тъ вни́детъ и҆ по пꙋтѝ є҆гѡ̀ и҆зы́детъ.

And he brought me in by the way of the gate that looks northward, in front of the house: and I looked, and, behold, the house was full of the glory of the Lord: and I fell upon my face.

Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς βορρᾶν κατέναντι τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ πλήρης δόξης ὁ οἶκος τοῦ Κυρίου, καὶ πίπτω ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου.

И҆ введе́ мѧ по пꙋтѝ вра́тъ ꙗ҆̀же къ сѣ́верꙋ, прѧ́мѡ хра́мꙋ: и҆ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ сѐ, по́лнъ сла́вы до́мъ гдⷭ҇ень. И҆ падо́хъ ни́цъ на лицы̀ мое́мъ.

Wisdom has built a house for herself, and set up seven pillars.

Η σοφία ᾠκοδόμησεν ἑαυτῇ οἶκον καὶ ὑπήρεισε στύλους ἑπτά·

Премꙋ́дрость созда̀ себѣ̀ до́мъ и҆ ᲂу҆твердѝ столпѡ́въ се́дмь:

She has killed her beasts; she has mingled her wine in a bowl, and prepared her table.

ἔσφαξε τὰ ἑαυτῆς θύματα, ἐκέρασεν εἰς κρατῆρα τὸν ἑαυτῆς οἶνον καὶ ἡτοιμάσατο τὴν ἑαυτῆς τράπεζαν·

закла̀ своѧ̑ же́ртвєннаѧ, и҆ растворѝ въ ча́ши свое́й вїно̀, и҆ ᲂу҆гото́ва свою̀ трапе́зꙋ:

She has sent forth her servants, calling with a loud proclamation to the feast, saying,

ἀπέστειλε τοὺς ἑαυτῆς δούλους συγκαλοῦσα μετὰ ὑψηλοῦ κηρύγματος ἐπὶ κρατῆρα λέγουσα·

посла̀ своѧ̑ рабы̑, созыва́ющи съ высо́кимъ проповѣ́данїемъ на ча́шꙋ, глаго́лющи:

Whoso is foolish, let him turn aside to me: and to them that want understanding she says,

ὅς ἐστιν ἄφρων, ἐκκλινάτω πρός με· καὶ τοῖς ἐνδεέσι φρενῶν εἶπεν·

и҆́же є҆́сть безꙋ́менъ, да ᲂу҆клони́тсѧ ко мнѣ̀.

Come, eat of my bread, and drink wine which I have mingled for you.

ἔλθετε φάγετε τῶν ἐμῶν ἄρτων καὶ πίετε οἶνον, ὃν ἐκέρασα ὑμῖν·

И҆ тре́бꙋющымъ ᲂу҆ма̀ речѐ: прїиди́те, ꙗ҆ди́те мо́й хлѣ́бъ и҆ пі́йте вїно̀, є҆́же раствори́хъ ва́мъ:

Leave folly, that ye may reign for ever; and seek wisdom, and improve understanding by knowledge.

ἀπολείπετε ἀφροσύνην, ἵνα εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα βασιλεύσητε, καὶ ζητήσατε φρόνησιν, καὶ κατορθώσατε ἐν γνώσει σύνεσιν.

ѡ҆ста́вите безꙋ́мїе и҆ жи́ви бꙋ́дете, да во вѣ́ки воцарите́сѧ: и҆ взыщи́те ра́зꙋма, да поживетѐ и҆ и҆спра́вите ра́зꙋмъ въ вѣ́дѣнїи.

He that reproves evil [men] shall get dishonour to himself; and he that rebukes an ungodly [man] shall disgrace himself.

῾Ο παιδεύων κακοὺς λήψεται ἑαυτῷ ἀτιμίαν· ἐλέγχων δὲ τὸν ἀσεβῆ μωμήσεται ἑαυτόν.

Наказꙋ́ѧй ѕлы̑ѧ прїи́метъ себѣ̀ безче́стїе, ѡ҆блича́ѧй же нечести́ваго поро́чна сотвори́тъ себѐ (꙳ѡ҆бличє́нїѧ бо нечести́вомꙋ ра̑ны є҆мꙋ̀).

Rebuke not evil [men], lest they should hate thee: rebuke a wise [man], and he will love thee.

μὴ ἔλεγχε κακούς, ἵνα μὴ μισήσωσί σε· ἔλεγχε σοφόν, καὶ ἀγαπήσει σε.

Не ѡ҆блича́й ѕлы́хъ, да не возненави́дѧтъ тебѐ: ѡ҆блича́й премꙋ́дра, и҆ возлю́битъ тѧ̀.

Give an opportunity to a wise [man], and he will be wiser: instruct a just man, and he will receive more [instruction].

δίδου σοφῷ ἀφορμήν, καὶ σοφώτερος ἔσται· γνώριζε δικαίῳ, καὶ προσθήσει τοῦ δέχεσθαι.

Да́ждь премꙋ́дромꙋ винꙋ̀, и҆ премꙋ́дрѣйшїй бꙋ́детъ: сказꙋ́й првⷣномꙋ, и҆ приложи́тъ прїима́ти.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the counsel of saints is understanding: for to know the law is [the character] of a sound mind.

ἀρχὴ σοφίας φόβος Κυρίου, καὶ βουλὴ ἁγίων σύνεσις, τὸ δὲ γνῶναι νόμον διανοίας ἐστὶν ἀγαθῆς·

Нача́ло премꙋ́дрости стра́хъ гдⷭ҇ень, и҆ совѣ́тъ ст҃ы́хъ ра́зꙋмъ: разꙋмѣ́ти бо зако́нъ, по́мысла є҆́сть блага́гѡ.

For in this way thou shalt live long, and years of thy life shall be added to thee.

τούτῳ γὰρ τῷ τρόπῳ πολὺν ζήσεις χρόνον, καὶ προστεθήσεταί σοι ἔτη ζωῆς σου.

Си́мъ бо ѡ҆́бразомъ мно́гое поживе́ши вре́мѧ, и҆ приложа́тсѧ тебѣ̀ лѣ̑та живота̀ твоегѡ̀.

To whom have ye compared the Lord? and with what likeness have ye compared him?

τίνι ὡμοιώσατε Κύριον καὶ τίνι ὁμοιώματι ὡμοιώσατε αὐτόν;

Комꙋ̀ ᲂу҆подо́бисте гдⷭ҇а, и҆ ко́емꙋ подо́бїю ᲂу҆подо́бисте є҆го̀;

Has not the artificer made an image, or the goldsmith having melted gold, gilt it over, [and] made it a similitude?

μὴ εἰκόνα ἐποίησε τέκτων, ἢ χρυσοχόος χωνεύσας χρυσίον περιεχρύσωσεν αὐτόν, ὁμοίωμα κατεσκεύασεν αὐτόν;

Є҆да̀ ѡ҆́бразъ сотворѝ древодѣ́латель, и҆лѝ зла́тарь слїѧ́въ зла́то позлатѝ є҆го̀, и҆лѝ подо́бїемъ сотворѝ є҆го̀;

For the artificer chooses out a wood that will not rot, and will wisely enquire how he shall set up his image, and [that so] that it should not be moved.

ξύλον γὰρ ἄσηπτον ἐκλέγεται τέκτων καὶ σοφῶς ζητεῖ πῶς στήσει εἰκόνα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἵνα μὴ σαλεύητε.

Дре́во бо негнїю́щее и҆збира́етъ древодѣ́латель и҆ мꙋ́дрѣ и҆́щетъ, ка́кѡ поста́витъ ѡ҆́бразъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ да не поколе́блетсѧ.

Will ye not know? will ye not hear? has it not been told you of old? Have ye not known the foundations of the earth?

οὐ γνώσεσθε; οὐκ ἀκούσεσθε; οὐκ ἀνηγγέλη ἐξ ἀρχῆς ὑμῖν; οὐκ ἔγνωτε τὰ θεμέλια τῆς γῆς;

Не разꙋмѣ́сте ли, не слы́шасте ли, не возвѣсти́сѧ ли ва́мъ и҆спе́рва; не разꙋмѣ́сте ли ѡ҆снова̑нїѧ землѝ;

[It is] he that comprehends the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants in it are as grasshoppers; he that set up the heaven as a chamber, and stretched [it] out as a tent to dwell in:

ὁ κατέχων τὸν γῦρον τῆς γῆς, καὶ οἱ ἐνοικοῦντες ἐν αὐτῇ ὡς ἀκρίδες, ὁ στήσας ὡς καμάραν τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ διατείνας ὡς σκηνὴν κατοικεῖν,

Содержа́й крꙋ́гъ землѝ, и҆ живꙋ́щїи на не́й а҆́ки прꙋ́зи: поста́вивый не́бо ꙗ҆́кѡ кама́рꙋ и҆ просте́ръ є҆̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ски́нїю ѡ҆бита́ти:

he that appoints princes to rule as nothing, and has made the earth as nothing.

ὁ διδοὺς ἄρχοντας ὡς οὐδὲν ἄρχειν, τὴν δὲ γῆν ὡς οὐδὲν ἐποίησεν.

даѧ́й кнѧ̑зи а҆́ки ничто́же владѣ́ти, и҆ зе́млю а҆́ки ничто́же сотворѝ.

For they shall not plant, neither shall they sow, neither shall their root be fixed in the ground: he has blown upon them, and they are withered, and a storm shall carry them away like sticks.

οὐ γὰρ μὴ φυτεύσωσιν, οὐδὲ μὴ σπείρωσιν, οὐδὲ μὴ ριζωθῇ εἰς τὴν γῆν ἡ ρίζα αὐτῶν· ἔπνευσεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐξηράνθησαν, καὶ καταιγὶς ὡς φρύγανα λήψεται αὐτούς.

Не насадѧ́тъ бо, нижѐ насѣ́ютъ, и҆ не вкорени́тсѧ въ землѝ коре́нїе и҆́хъ: дхнꙋ̀ на ни́хъ вѣ́тръ, и҆ и҆зсхо́ша, и҆ бꙋ́рѧ а҆́ки сте́блїе во́зметъ и҆̀хъ.

Now then to whom have ye compared me, that I may be exalted? saith the Holy One.

νῦν οὖν τίνι με ὡμοιώσατε καὶ ὑψωθήσομαι; εἶπεν ὁ ἅγιος.

Нн҃ѣ ᲂу҆̀бо комꙋ́ мѧ ᲂу҆подо́бисте, и҆ вознесꙋ́сѧ; речѐ ст҃ы́й.

Lift up your eyes on high, and see, who has displayed all these things? [even] he that brings forth his host by number: he shall call them all by name by [means of his] great glory, and by the power of his might: nothing has escaped thee.

ἀναβλέψατε εἰς ὕψος τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὑμῶν καὶ ἴδετε, τίς κατέδειξε ταῦτα πάντα; ὁ ἐκφέρων κατ᾿ ἀριθμὸν τὸν κόσμον αὐτοῦ πάντας ἐπ᾿ ὀνόματι καλέσει· ἀπὸ πολλῆς δόξης καὶ ἐν κράτει ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ οὐδέν σε ἔλαθε.

Воззри́те на высотꙋ̀ ѻ҆чи́ма ва́шима и҆ ви́дите, кто̀ сотворѝ сїѧ̑ всѧ̑: носѧ́й по числꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́тварь свою̀, и҆ всѧ̑ по и҆́мени прозове́тъ ѿ мно́гїѧ сла́вы и҆ въ держа́вѣ крѣ́пости своеѧ̀: ничто́же ᲂу҆таи́сѧ ѿ тебє̀.

For say not thou, O Jacob, and why hast thou spoken, Israel, [saying], My way is hid from God, and my God has taken away [my] judgment, and has departed?

Μὴ γὰρ εἶπῃς, ᾿Ιακώβ, καὶ τί ἐλάλησας, ᾿Ισραήλ· ἀπεκρύβη ἡ ὁδός μου ἀπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ὁ Θεός μου τὴν κρίσιν ἀφεῖλε καὶ ἀπέστη;

Є҆да́ бо рече́ши, і҆а́кѡве, и҆ что̀ глаго́лалъ є҆сѝ, і҆и҃лю: ᲂу҆таи́сѧ пꙋ́ть мо́й ѿ бг҃а, и҆ бг҃ъ мо́й сꙋ́дъ ѿѧ̀, и҆ ѿстꙋпѝ;

And now, hast thou not known? hast thou not heard? the eternal God, the God that formed the ends of the earth, shall not hunger, nor be weary, and there is no searching of his understanding.

καὶ νῦν οὐκ ἔγνως εἰ μὴ ἤκουσας; Θεὸς αἰώνιος ὁ Θεὸς ὁ κατασκευάσας τὰ ἄκρα τῆς γῆς, οὐ πεινάσει, οὐδὲ κοπιάσει, οὐδέ ἐστιν ἐξεύρεσις τῆς φρονήσεως αὐτοῦ·

И҆ нн҃ѣ не ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́лъ ли є҆сѝ; ни лѝ слы́шалъ є҆сѝ; бг҃ъ вѣ́чный, бг҃ъ ᲂу҆стро́ивый концы̑ землѝ, не вза́лчетъ, нижѐ ᲂу҆трꙋди́тсѧ, нижѐ є҆́сть и҆з̾ѡбрѣ́тенїе премⷣрости є҆гѡ̀,

He gives strength to the hungry, and sorrow to them that are not suffering.

διδοὺς τοῖς πεινῶσιν ἰσχὺν καὶ τοῖς μὴ ὀδυνωμένοις λύπην.

даѧ́й а҆́лчꙋщымъ крѣ́пость и҆ неболѣ́знєннымъ печа́ль.

For the young [men] shall hunger, and the youths shall be weary, and the choice [men] shall be powerless:

πεινάσουσι γὰρ νεώτεροι, καὶ κοπιάσουσι νεανίσκοι, καὶ ἐκλεκτοὶ ἀνίσχυες ἔσονται·

Вза́лчꙋтъ бо ю҆нѣ́йшїи, и҆ ᲂу҆трꙋдѧ́тсѧ ю҆́нѡты, и҆ и҆збра́ннїи не крѣ́пцы бꙋ́дꙋтъ:

but they that wait on God shall renew [their] strength; they shall put forth new feathers like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not hunger.

οἱ δὲ ὑπομένοντες τὸν Θεὸν ἀλλάξουσιν ἰσχύν, πτεροφυήσουιν ὡς ἀετοί, δραμοῦνται καὶ οὐ κοπιάσουσι, βαδιοῦνται καὶ οὐ πεινάσουσιν.

терпѧ́щїи же гдⷭ҇а и҆змѣнѧ́тъ крѣ́пость, ѡ҆крыла́тѣютъ а҆́ки ѻ҆рлѝ, потекꙋ́тъ и҆ не ᲂу҆трꙋдѧ́тсѧ, по́йдꙋтъ и҆ не вза́лчꙋтъ.
