John 20.1-10
§ 63
THE first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.
Τῇ δὲ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ ἔρχεται πρωῒ σκοτίας ἔτι οὔσης εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ βλέπει τὸν λίθον ἠρμένον ἐκ τοῦ μνημείου.
[Заⷱ҇ 63] Во є҆ди́нꙋ же ѿ сꙋббѡ́тъ марі́а магдали́на прїи́де заꙋ́тра, є҆щѐ сꙋ́щей тьмѣ̀, на гро́бъ, и҆ ви́дѣ ка́мень взѧ́тъ ѿ гро́ба:
Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the LORD out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.
τρέχει οὖν καὶ ἔρχεται πρὸς Σίμωνα Πέτρον καὶ πρὸς τὸν ἄλλον μαθητὴν ὃν ἐφίλει ὁ Ἰησοῦς, καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· ἦραν τὸν Κύριον ἐκ τοῦ μνημείου, καὶ οὐκ οἴδαμεν ποῦ ἔθηκαν αὐτόν.
течѐ ᲂу҆̀бо и҆ прїи́де къ сі́мѡнꙋ петрꙋ̀ и҆ къ дрꙋго́мꙋ ᲂу҆чн҃кꙋ̀, є҆го́же люблѧ́ше і҆и҃съ, и҆ глаго́ла и҆́ма: взѧ́ша гдⷭ҇а ѿ гро́ба, и҆ не вѣ́мъ, гдѣ̀ положи́ша є҆го̀.
Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.
ἐξῆλθεν οὖν ὁ Πέτρος καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς καὶ ἤρχοντο εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον.
И҆зы́де же пе́тръ и҆ дрꙋгі́й ᲂу҆чн҃къ и҆ и҆дѧ́ста ко гро́бꙋ:
So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.
ἔτρεχον δὲ οἱ δύο ὁμοῦ· καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς προέδραμε τάχιον τοῦ Πέτρου καὶ ἦλθε πρῶτος εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον,
теча́ста же ѻ҆́ба вкꙋ́пѣ: и҆ дрꙋгі́й ᲂу҆чн҃къ течѐ скорѣ́е петра̀ и҆ прїи́де пре́жде ко гро́бꙋ,
And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
καὶ παρακύψας βλέπει κείμενα τὰ ὀθόνια, οὐ μέντοι εἰσῆλθεν.
и҆ прини́къ ви́дѣ ри̑зы лежа́щѧ: ѻ҆ба́че не вни́де.
Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
ἔρχεται οὖν Σίμων Πέτρος ἀκολουθῶν αὐτῷ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον καὶ θεωρεῖ τὰ ὀθόνια κείμενα,
Прїи́де же сі́мѡнъ пе́тръ в̾слѣ́дъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ вни́де во гро́бъ, и҆ ви́дѣ ри̑зы (є҆ди̑ны) лежа́щѧ
And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
καὶ τὸ σουδάριον, ὃ ἦν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ, οὐ μετὰ τῶν ὀθονίων κείμενον, ἀλλὰ χωρὶς ἐντετυλιγμένον εἰς ἕνα τόπον.
и҆ сꙋда́рь, и҆́же бѣ̀ на главѣ̀ є҆гѡ̀, не съ ри́зами лежа́щь, но ѡ҆со́бь сви́тъ на є҆ди́нѣмъ мѣ́стѣ.
Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.
τότε οὖν εἰσῆλθε καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς ὁ ἐλθὼν πρῶτος εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ εἶδε καὶ ἐπίστευσεν·
Тогда̀ ᲂу҆̀бо вни́де и҆ дрꙋгі́й ᲂу҆чн҃къ, прише́дый пре́жде ко гро́бꙋ, и҆ ви́дѣ и҆ вѣ́рова:
For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
οὐδέπω γὰρ ᾔδεισαν τὴν γραφὴν ὅτι δεῖ αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι.
не ᲂу҆̀ бо вѣ́дѧхꙋ писа́нїѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ подоба́етъ є҆мꙋ̀ и҆з̾ ме́ртвыхъ воскрⷭ҇нꙋти.
Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.
Ἀπῆλθον οὖν πάλιν πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς οἱ μαθηταί.
И҆до́ста же па́ки къ себѣ̀ ᲂу҆чн҃ка̑.

Ephesians 2:14–22
§ 221
Ephesians 2:14–22 § 221
Brethren, Christ is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of division between us, having abolished in His Flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the Cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to them that were near. For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father… Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.
Luke 18.18-27
§ 91
Luke 18.18-27 § 91
And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
Καὶ ἐπηρώτησέ τις αὐτὸν ἄρχων λέγων· διδάσκαλε ἀγαθέ, τί ποιήσας ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσω;
[Заⷱ҇ 91] И҆ вопросѝ є҆го̀ нѣ́кїй кнѧ́зь, глаго́лѧ: ᲂу҆чт҃лю бл҃гі́й, что̀ сотвори́въ, живо́тъ вѣ́чный наслѣ́дствꙋю;
And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· τί με λέγεις ἀγαθόν; οὐδεὶς ἀγαθὸς εἰ μὴ εἷς ὁ Θεός.
Рече́ же є҆мꙋ̀ і҆и҃съ: что́ мѧ глаго́леши бл҃га; никто́же бл҃гъ, то́кмѡ є҆ди́нъ бг҃ъ:
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
τὰς ἐντολὰς οἶδας· μὴ μοιχεύσῃς, μὴ φονεύσῃς, μὴ κλέψῃς, μὴ ψευδομαρτυρήσῃς, τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα σου.
за́пѡвѣди вѣ́си: не прелюбы̀ творѝ, не ᲂу҆бі́й, не ᲂу҆кра́ди, не лжесвидѣ́тельствꙋй, чтѝ ѻ҆тца̀ твоего̀ и҆ ма́терь твою̀.
And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
ὁ δὲ εἶπε· ταῦτα πάντα ἐφυλαξάμην ἐκ νεότητός μου.
Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ сохрани́хъ ѿ ю҆́ности моеѧ̀.
Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
ἀκούσας δὲ ταῦτα ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ἔτι ἕν σοι λείπει· πάντα ὅσα ἔχεις πώλησον καὶ διάδος πτωχοῖς, καὶ ἕξεις θησαυρὸν ἐν οὐρανῷ, καὶ δεῦρο ἀκολούθει μοι.
Слы́шавъ же сїѧ̑ і҆и҃съ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: є҆щѐ є҆ди́нагѡ не доконча́лъ є҆сѝ: всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка и҆́маши, прода́ждь и҆ разда́й ни́щымъ: и҆ и҆мѣ́ти и҆́маши сокро́вище на нб҃сѝ: и҆ грѧдѝ в̾слѣ́дъ менє̀.
And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
ὁ δὲ ἀκούσας ταῦτα περίλυπος ἐγένετο· ἦν γὰρ πλούσιος σφόδρα.
Ѻ҆́нъ же слы́шавъ сїѐ, приско́рбенъ бы́сть: бѣ́ бо бога́тъ ѕѣлѡ̀.
And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὸν ὁ Ἰησοῦς περίλυπον γενόμενον εἶπε· πῶς δυσκόλως οἱ τὰ χρήματα ἔχοντες εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ.
Ви́дѣвъ же є҆го̀ і҆и҃съ приско́рбна бы́вша, речѐ: ка́кѡ не ᲂу҆до́бь и҆мꙋ́щїи бога́тство въ црⷭ҇твїе бж҃їе вни́дꙋтъ:
For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
εὐκοπώτερον γάρ ἐστι κάμηλον διὰ τρυμαλιᾶς ραφίδος εἰσελθεῖν ἢ πλούσιον εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰσελθεῖν.
ᲂу҆до́бѣе бо є҆́сть вельбꙋ́дꙋ сквозѣ̀ и҆глинѣ̑ ᲂу҆́шы проитѝ, не́же бога́тꙋ въ црⷭ҇твїе бж҃їе вни́ти.
And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
εἶπον δὲ οἱ ἀκούσαντες· καὶ τίς δύναται σωθῆναι;
Рѣ́ша же слы́шавшїи: то̀ кто̀ мо́жетъ сп҃се́нъ бы́ти;
And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
ὁ δὲ εἶπε· τὰ ἀδύνατα παρὰ ἀνθρώποις δυνατὰ παρὰ τῷ Θεῷ ἐστιν.
Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: невозмѡ́жнаѧ ᲂу҆ человѣ̑къ возмѡ́жна сꙋ́ть ᲂу҆ бг҃а.
