Genesis 7.1-5 § 12

Genesis 7.1-5 § 12

1

AND the Lord God said to Noe, Enter thou and all thy family into the ark, for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

ΚΑΙ εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς Νῶε· εἴσελθε σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκός σου εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν, ὅτι σὲ εἶδον δίκαιον ἐναντίον μου ἐν τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ.

И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ къ нѡ́ю: вни́ди ты̀ и҆ ве́сь до́мъ тво́й въ ковче́гъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ тѧ̀ ви́дѣхъ првⷣна предо мно́ю въ ро́дѣ се́мъ:

2

And of the clean cattle take in to thee sevens, male and female, and of the unclean cattle pairs male and female.

ἀπὸ δὲ τῶν κτηνῶν τῶν καθαρῶν εἰσάγαγε πρὸς σὲ ἑπτὰ ἑπτά, ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ, ἀπὸ δὲ τῶν κτηνῶν τῶν μὴ καθαρῶν δύο δύο, ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ,

ѿ скотѡ́въ же чи́стыхъ введѝ къ себѣ̀ се́дмь се́дмь, мꙋ́жескїй по́лъ и҆ же́нскїй: ѿ скотѡ́въ же нечи́стыхъ два̀ два̀, мꙋ́жескїй по́лъ и҆ же́нскїй:

3

And of clean flying creatures of the sky sevens, male and female, and of all unclean flying creatures pairs, male and female, to maintain seed on all the earth.

καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πετεινῶν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τῶν καθαρῶν ἑπτὰ ἑπτά, ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ, καὶ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν πετεινῶν τῶν μὴ καθαρῶν δύο δύο, ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ, διαθρέψαι σπέρμα ἐπί πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν.

и҆ ѿ пти́цъ небе́сныхъ чи́стыхъ се́дмь се́дмь, мꙋ́жескїй по́лъ и҆ же́нскїй: и҆ ѿ всѣ́хъ пти́цъ нечи́стыхъ двѣ̀ двѣ̀, мꙋ́жескїй по́лъ и҆ же́нскїй, препита́ти сѣ́мѧ по все́й землѝ:

4

For yet seven days [having passed] I bring rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out every offspring which I have made from the face of all the earth.

ἔτι γὰρ ἡμερῶν ἑπτὰ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ὑετὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τεσσαράκοντα ἡμέρας καὶ τεσσαράκοντα νύκτας καὶ ἐξαλείψω πᾶν τὸ ἀνάστημα, ὃ ἐποίησα, ἀπὸ προσώπου πάσης τῆς γῆς.

є҆ще́ бо дні́й се́дмь, а҆́зъ наведꙋ̀ до́ждь на зе́млю четы́редесѧть дні́й и҆ четы́редесѧть ноще́й: и҆ потреблю̀ всѧ́кое воста́нїе, є҆́же сотвори́хъ, ѿ лица̀ всеѧ̀ землѝ.

5

And Noe [did] all things whatever the Lord God commanded him.

καὶ ἐποίησε Νῶε πάντα, ὅσα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ Κύριος ὁ Θεός.

И҆ сотворѝ нѡ́е всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка заповѣ́да є҆мꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ.

Proverbs 8.32-9.11 § 80

Chapter 8

32

Now then, [my] son, hear me: blessed is the man who shall hearken to me, and the mortal who shall keep my ways; [See Appendix ]

νῦν οὖν, υἱέ, ἄκουέ μου καὶ μακάριοι, οἳ ὁδούς μου φυλάσσοντες,

Нн҃ѣ ᲂу҆̀бо, сы́не, послꙋ́шай менѐ: и҆ блаже́ни, и҆̀же пꙋти̑ моѧ̑ сохранѧ́тъ.

33

[See Appendix ]

ἀκούσατε παιδείαν καὶ σοφίσθητε καὶ μὴ ἀποφραγῆτε.

Оу҆слы́шите премꙋ́дрость, и҆ ᲂу҆мꙋдри́тесѧ, и҆ не ѿмещи́те.

34

Blessed is the man heareth me and the man who shall guard my ways, watching daily at my doors, waiting at the posts of my entrances.

μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς εἰσακούεταί μου, καὶ ἄνθρωπος, ὃς τὰς ἐμὰς ὁδοὺς φυλάξει ἀγρυπνῶν ἐπ᾿ ἐμαῖς θύραις καθ᾿ ἡμέραν, τηρῶν σταθμοὺς ἐμῶν εἰσόδων·

Блаже́нъ мꙋ́жъ, и҆́же послꙋ́шаетъ менѐ, и҆ человѣ́къ, и҆́же пꙋти̑ моѧ̑ сохрани́тъ, бдѧ́й при мои́хъ две́рехъ прⷭ҇нѡ, соблюда́ѧй пра́ги мои́хъ вхо́дѡвъ:

35

For my outgoings are the outgoings of life, and [in them] is prepared favour from the Lord.

αἱ γὰρ ἔξοδοί μου ἔξοδοι ζωῆς, καὶ ἑτοιμάζεται θέλησις παρὰ Κυρίου.

и҆схо́ди бо моѝ и҆схо́ди живота̀, и҆ ᲂу҆готовлѧ́етсѧ хотѣ́нїе ѿ гдⷭ҇а:

36

But they that sin against me act wickedly against their own souls: and they that hate me love death.

οἱ δὲ ἁμαρτάνοντες εἰς ἐμὲ ἀσεβοῦσιν εἰς τὰ ἑαυτῶν ψυχάς, καὶ οἱ μισοῦντές με ἀγαπῶσι θάνατον. * For the uses of ἄκακος and πανοῦργος in this book, see Appendix Cf. a note on emphasis with personal pronoun and article

согрѣша́ющїи же въ мѧ̀ нече́ствꙋютъ на своѧ̑ дꙋ́ши, и҆ ненави́дѧщїи мѧ̀ лю́бѧтъ сме́рть.

Chapter 9

1

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:

2

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:

3

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:

4

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.

5

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:

6

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.

7

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).

8

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.

9

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.

10

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.

11

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.

10

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,

11

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.

12

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:

13

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:

14

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:

15

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.

16

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.

17

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.

Chapter 43

27

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.

1

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.

2

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.

3

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.

4

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.

плі̑нѳы падо́ша, но прїиди́те, и҆зсѣче́мъ ка́менїе и҆ посѣче́мъ черни́чїе и҆ ке́дры, и҆ сози́ждемъ себѣ̀ сто́лпъ.

11

And God shall dash down them that rise up against him on mount Sion, and shall scatter his enemies;

καὶ ράξει ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς ἐπανισταμένους ἐπὶ ὄρος Σιὼν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς καὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν διασκεδάσει,

И҆ разрꙋши́тъ бг҃ъ востаю́щыѧ на го́рꙋ сїѡ́ню, и҆ врагѝ є҆гѡ̀ разсы́плетъ:

12

[even] Syria from the rising of the sun, and the Greeks from the setting of the sun, who devour Israel with open mouth. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but still [his] hand is exalted.

Συρίαν ἀφ᾿ ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν καὶ τοὺς ῞Ελληνας ἀφ᾿ ἡλίου δυσμῶν, τοὺς κατεσθίοντας τὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ ὅλῳ τῷ στόματι. ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμός, ἀλλ᾿ ἔτι ἡ χεὶρ ὑψηλή.

сѷрі́ю ѿ востѡ́къ со́лнца и҆ є҆́ллины ѿ за́пада со́лнца, поѧда́ющыѧ і҆и҃лѧ всѣ́ми ᲂу҆сты̑. Во всѣ́хъ си́хъ не ѿврати́сѧ ꙗ҆́рость є҆гѡ̀, но є҆щѐ рꙋка̀ є҆гѡ̀ высока̀.

13

But the people turned not until they were smitten, and they sought not the Lord.

καὶ ὁ λαὸς οὐκ ἀπεστράφη, ἕως ἐπλήγη, καὶ τὸν Κύριον οὐκ ἐξεζήτησαν.

И҆ лю́дїе не ѡ҆брати́шасѧ, до́ндеже ꙗ҆́звени бы́ша, и҆ гдⷭ҇а не взыска́ша.

14

So the Lord took away from Israel the head and tail, great and small, in one day: the old man, and them that respect persons, this is the head; and the prophet teaching unlawful things, he is the tail.

καὶ ἀφεῖλε Κύριος ἀπὸ ᾿Ισραὴλ κεφαλὴν καὶ οὐράν, μέγαν καὶ μικρὸν ἐν μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ, πρεσβύτην καὶ τοὺς τὰ πρόσωπα θαυμάζοντας (αὕτη ἡ ἀρχὴ) καὶ προφήτην διδάσκοντα ἄνομα (οὗτος ἡ οὐρά).

И҆ ѿѧ́тъ гдⷭ҇ь ѿ і҆и҃лѧ главꙋ̀ и҆ ѡ҆́шибъ, вели́ка и҆ ма́ла, во є҆ди́нъ де́нь:

15

And they that pronounce this people blessed shall mislead them; and they mislead them that they may devour them.

καὶ ἔσονται οἱ μακαρίζοντες τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον πλανῶντες καὶ πλανῶσιν, ὅπως καταπίωσιν αὐτούς.

ста́рца и҆ чꙋдѧ́щихсѧ ли́цамъ, сїѐ нача́ло: и҆ проро́ка ᲂу҆ча́ща беззакѡ́ннаѧ, се́й ѡ҆́шибъ.

16

Therefore the Lord shall not take pleasure in their young men, neither shall he have pity on their orphans or on their widows: for they are all transgressors and wicked, and every mouth speaks unjustly. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.

διὰ τοῦτο ἐπὶ τοὺς νεανίσκους αὐτῶν οὐκ εὐφρανθήσεται ὁ Κύριος καὶ τοὺς ὀρφανοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς χήρας αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐλεήσει, ὅτι πάντες ἄνομοι καὶ πονηροί, καὶ πᾶν στόμα λαλεῖ ἄδικα. ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμός, ἀλλ᾿ ἔτι ἡ χεὶρ ὑψηλή.

И҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ блажа́щїи люді́й си́хъ льстѧ́ще, и҆ льстѧ́тъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ да поглотѧ́тъ ѧ҆̀.

17

And iniquity shall burn as fire, and shall be devoured by fire as dry grass: and it shall burn in the thickets of the wood, and shall devour all that is round about the hills.

καὶ καυθήσεται ὡς πῦρ ἡ ἀνομία καὶ ὡς ἄγρωσις ξηρὰ βρωθήσεται ὑπὸ πυρός· καὶ καυθήσεται ἐν τοῖς δάσεσι τοῦ δρυμοῦ, καὶ συγκαταφάγεται τὰ κύκλῳ τῶν βουνῶν πάντα.

Сегѡ̀ ра́ди ѡ҆ ю҆́ношахъ и҆́хъ не возвесели́тсѧ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ сиро́тъ и҆́хъ и҆ вдови́цъ и҆́хъ не поми́лꙋетъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ всѝ беззако́ннїи и҆ лꙋка́вїи, и҆ всѧ̑каѧ ᲂу҆ста̀ глаго́лютъ непра́вдꙋ. Во всѣ́хъ си́хъ не ѿврати́сѧ ꙗ҆́рость є҆гѡ̀, но є҆щѐ рꙋка̀ є҆гѡ̀ высока̀.

18

The whole earth is set on fire because of the fierce anger of the Lord, and the people shall be as men burnt by fire: no man shall pity his brother.

διὰ θυμὸν ὀργῆς Κυρίου συγκέκαυται ἡ γῆ ὅλη, καὶ ἔσται ὁ λαὸς ὡς κατακεκαυμένος ὑπὸ πυρός· ἄνθρωπος τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐλεήσει,

И҆ разгори́тсѧ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́гнь беззако́нїе, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ тро́скотъ сꙋхі́й поѧде́нъ бꙋ́детъ ѻ҆гне́мъ, и҆ разгори́тсѧ въ ча́щахъ дꙋбра́вныхъ и҆ поѧ́стъ, ꙗ҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ холмѡ́въ всѧ̑.

19

But [one] shall turn aside to the right hand, for he shall be hungry; and shall eat on the left, and a man shall by no means be satisfied with eating the flesh of his own arm.

ἀλλὰ ἐκκλινεῖ εἰς τὰ δεξιά, ὅτι πεινάσει καὶ φάγεται ἐκ τῶν ἀριστερῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐμπλησθῇ ἄνθρωπος ἔσθων τὰς σάρκας τοῦ βραχίονος αὐτοῦ.

За ꙗ҆́рость гнѣ́ва гдⷭ҇нѧ сгорѣ̀ всѧ̀ землѧ̀, и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ лю́дїе ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆гне́мъ пожже́ни: человѣ́къ бра́та своегѡ̀ не поми́лꙋетъ,

20

For Manasses shall eat [the flesh] of Ephraim, and Ephraim [the flesh] of Manasses; for they shall besiege Juda together. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.

φάγεται γὰρ Μανασσῆς τοῦ ᾿Εφραὶμ καὶ ᾿Εφραὶμ τοῦ Μανασσῆ, ὅτι ἅμα πολιορκήσουσι τὸν ᾿Ιούδαν. ἐπὶ τούτοις πᾶσιν οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμός, ἀλλ᾿ ἔτι ἡ χείρ ὑψηλή. * Alex. + Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Potentate, Prince of Peace, Father of the age to come.

но ᲂу҆клони́тсѧ на де́сно, ꙗ҆́кѡ вза́лчетъ, и҆ снѣ́сть ѿ шꙋ́їихъ, и҆ не насы́титсѧ человѣ́къ ꙗ҆ды́й плѡ́ти мы́шцы своеѧ̀: снѣ́сть бо манассі́й є҆фре́мово, и҆ є҆фре́мъ манассі́ино, ꙗ҆́кѡ вкꙋ́пѣ повою́ютъ і҆ꙋ́дꙋ.

Chapter 10

1

Woe to them that write wickedness; for when they write they do write wickedness,

ΟΥΑΙ τοῖς γράφουσι πονηρίαν· γράφοντες γὰρ πονηρίαν γράφουσιν

Го́ре пи́шꙋщымъ лꙋка́вство: пи́шꙋщїи бо лꙋка́вство пи́шꙋтъ,

2

perverting the cause of the poor, violently wresting the judgment of the needy ones of my people, that the widow may be a prey to them, and the orphan a spoil.

ἐκκλίνοντες κρίσιν πτωχῶν, ἁρπάζοντες κρίμα πενήτων τοῦ λαοῦ μου, ὥστε εἶναι αὐτοῖς χήραν εἰς διαρπαγὴν καὶ ὀρφανὸν εἰς προνομήν.

ᲂу҆кланѧ́юще сꙋ́дъ ᲂу҆бо́гихъ, восхища́юще сꙋ́дъ ни́щихъ люді́й мои́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́ти и҆̀мъ вдови́цѣ въ расхище́нїе и҆ сиротѣ̀ въ разграбле́нїе.

3

And what will they do in the day of visitation? for affliction shall come to you from afar: and to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory,

καὶ τί ποιήσουσιν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῆς ἐπισκοπῆς; ἡ γὰρ θλῖψις ὑμῖν πόρρωθεν ἥξει· καὶ πρὸς τίνα καταφεύξεσθε τοῦ βοηθηθῆναι; καὶ ποῦ καταλείψετε τὴν δόξαν ὑμῶν

И҆ что̀ сотворѧ́тъ въ де́нь посѣще́нїѧ; ско́рбь бо ва́мъ ѿдале́че прїи́детъ. И҆ къ комꙋ̀ прибѣ́гнете, да помо́жетъ ва́мъ; И҆ гдѣ̀ ѡ҆ста́вите сла́вꙋ ва́шꙋ,

4

that ye may not fall into captivity? For all this [his] wrath is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.

τοῦ μὴ ἐμπεσεῖν εἰς ἐπαγωγήν; ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμός, ἀλλ᾿ ἔτι ἡ χεὶρ ὑψηλή.

є҆́же не впа́сти въ плѣне́нїе; И҆ под̾ ᲂу҆бїе́ными падꙋ́тъ. И҆ во всѣ́хъ си́хъ не ѿврати́сѧ гнѣ́въ є҆гѡ̀, но є҆щѐ рꙋка̀ є҆гѡ̀ высока̀.
