Luke 24.1-12
§ 112
NOW upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
Τῇ δὲ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων ὄρθρου βαθέος ἦλθον ἐπὶ τὸ μνῆμα φέρουσαι ἃ ἡτοίμασαν ἀρώματα, καί τινες σὺν αὐταῖς.
[Заⷱ҇ 112] Во є҆ди́нꙋ же ѿ сꙋббѡ́тъ ѕѣлѡ̀ ра́нѡ прїидо́ша на гро́бъ, носѧ́щѧ ꙗ҆̀же ᲂу҆гото́ваша а҆рѡма́ты: и҆ дрꙋгі̑ѧ съ ни́ми:
And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
εὗρον δὲ τὸν λίθον ἀποκεκυλισμένον ἀπὸ τοῦ μνημείου,
ѡ҆брѣто́ша же ка́мень ѿвале́нъ ѿ гро́ба,
And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
καὶ εἰσελθοῦσαι οὐχ εὗρον τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ.
и҆ вше́дшѧ не ѡ҆брѣто́ша тѣлесѐ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са.
And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ διαπορεῖσθαι αὐτὰς περὶ τούτου καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄνδρες δύο ἐπέστησαν αὐταῖς ἐν ἐσθήσεσιν ἀστραπτούσαις.
И҆ бы́сть не домышлѧ́ющымсѧ и҆̀мъ ѡ҆ се́мъ, и҆ сѐ, мꙋ̑жа два̀ ста́ста пред̾ ни́ми въ ри́захъ блеща́щихсѧ.
And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
ἐμφόβων δὲ γενομένων αὐτῶν καὶ κλινουσῶν τὸ πρόσωπον εἰς τὴν γῆν εἶπον πρὸς αὐτάς· τί ζητεῖτε τὸν ζῶντα μετὰ τῶν νεκρῶν;
Пристра̑шнымъ же бы́вшымъ и҆̀мъ и҆ покло́ньшымъ ли́ца на зе́млю, реко́ста къ ни̑мъ: что̀ и҆́щете жива́го съ ме́ртвыми;
He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
οὐκ ἔστιν ὧδε, ἀλλ᾿ ἠγέρθη· μνήσθητε ὡς ἐλάλησεν ὑμῖν ἔτι ὢν ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ,
нѣ́сть здѣ̀, но воста̀: помѧни́те, ꙗ҆́коже гл҃а ва́мъ, є҆щѐ сы́й въ галїле́и,
Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
λέγων ὅτι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου παραδοθῆναι εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων ἁμαρτωλῶν καὶ σταυρωθῆναι, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἀναστῆναι.
гл҃ѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ подоба́етъ сн҃ꙋ чл҃вѣ́ческомꙋ пре́данꙋ бы́ти въ рꙋ́цѣ человѣ̑къ грѣ̑шникъ, и҆ пропѧ́тꙋ бы́ти, и҆ въ тре́тїй де́нь воскрⷭ҇нꙋти.
And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
καὶ ὑποστρέψασαι ἀπὸ τοῦ μνημείου ἀπήγγειλαν ταῦτα πάντα τοῖς ἕνδεκα καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς λοιποῖς.
и҆ возвра́щшѧсѧ ѿ гро́ба, возвѣсти́ша всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ є҆диномꙋна́десѧте и҆ всѣ̑мъ про́чымъ.
It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
ἦσαν δὲ ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ Μαρία καὶ Ἰωάννα καὶ Μαρία Ἰακώβου καὶ οἱ λοιπαὶ σὺν αὐταῖς, αἳ ἔλεγον πρὸς τοὺς ἀποστόλους ταῦτα.
Бѧ́ше же магдали́на марі́а и҆ і҆ѡа́нна и҆ марі́а і҆а́кѡвлѧ, и҆ про́чыѧ съ ни́ми, ꙗ҆̀же глаго́лахꙋ ко а҆пⷭ҇лѡмъ сїѧ̑.
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
καὶ ἐφάνησαν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ λῆρος τὰ ρήματα αὐτῶν, καὶ ἠπίστουν αὐταῖς.
И҆ ꙗ҆ви́шасѧ пред̾ ни́ми ꙗ҆́кѡ лжа̀ глаго́лы и҆́хъ, и҆ не вѣ́ровахꙋ и҆̀мъ.
Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
ὁ δὲ Πέτρος ἀναστὰς ἔδραμεν ἐπὶ τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ παρακύψας βλέπει τὰ ὀθόνια κείμενα μόνα, καὶ ἀπῆλθε πρὸς ἑαυτὸν θαυμάζων τὸ γεγονός.
[Заⷱ҇ 113] Пе́тръ же воста́въ течѐ ко гро́бꙋ и҆ прини́къ ви́дѣ ри̑зы є҆ди̑ны лежа́щѧ: и҆ ѿи́де, въ себѣ̀ дивѧ́сѧ бы́вшемꙋ.

Ephesians 5:8–19
§ 229
Ephesians 5:8–19 § 229
Brethren, walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness, and truth), proving what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: “Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.” See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is excess; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord …
Luke 13.10-17
§ 71
Luke 13.10-17 § 71
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.
Ἦν δὲ διδάσκων ἐν μιᾷ τῶν συναγωγῶν ἐν τοῖς σάββασι.
[Заⷱ҇ 71] Бѧ́ше же ᲂу҆чѧ̀ на є҆ди́нѣмъ ѿ со́нмищъ въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ:
And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.
καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ ἦν πνεῦμα ἔχουσα ἀσθενείας ἔτη δέκα καὶ ὀκτώ, καὶ ἦν συγκύπτουσα καὶ μὴ δυναμένη ἀνακῦψαι εἰς τὸ παντελές.
и҆ сѐ, жена̀ бѣ̀ и҆мꙋ́щи дꙋ́хъ недꙋ́женъ лѣ́тъ ѻ҆смьна́десѧть, и҆ бѣ̀ слѧ́ка и҆ не могꙋ́щи восклони́тисѧ ѿню́дъ.
And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὴν ὁ Ἰησοῦς προσεφώνησε καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ· γύναι, ἀπολέλυσαι τῆς ἀσθενείας σου·
Ви́дѣвъ же ю҆̀ і҆и҃съ, пригласѝ и҆ речѐ є҆́й: же́но, ѿпꙋщена̀ є҆сѝ ѿ недꙋ́га твоегѡ̀.
And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτῇ τὰς χεῖρας· καὶ παραχρῆμα ἀνωρθώθη καὶ ἐδόξαζε τὸν Θεόν.
И҆ возложѝ на ню̀ рꙋ́цѣ: и҆ а҆́бїе простре́сѧ и҆ сла́влѧше бг҃а.
And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.
ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ ἀρχισυνάγωγος, ἀγανακτῶν ὅτι τῷ σαββάτῳ ἐθεράπευσεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, ἔλεγε τῷ ὄχλῳ· ἓξ ἡμέραι εἰσὶν ἐν αἷς δεῖ ἐργάζεσθαι· ἐν ταύταις οὖν ἐρχόμενοι θεραπεύεσθε, καὶ μὴ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ σαββάτου.
Ѿвѣща́въ же старѣ́йшина собо́рꙋ, негодꙋ́ѧ, занѐ въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ и҆сцѣлѝ (ю҆̀) і҆и҃съ, глаго́лаше наро́дꙋ: ше́сть дні́й є҆́сть, въ нѧ́же досто́итъ дѣ́лати: въ ты̑ѧ ᲂу҆̀бо приходѧ́ще цѣли́тесѧ, а҆ не въ де́нь сꙋббѡ́тный.
The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?
ἀπεκρίθη οὖν αὐτῷ ὁ Κύριος καὶ εἶπεν· ὑποκριτά, ἕκαστος ὑμῶν τῷ σαββάτῳ οὐ λύει τὸν βοῦν αὐτοῦ ἢ τὸν ὄνον ἀπὸ τῆς φάτνης καὶ ἀπαγαγὼν ποτίζει;
Ѿвѣща́ (же) ᲂу҆̀бо є҆мꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ь и҆ речѐ: лицемѣ́ре, ко́ждо ва́съ въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ не ѿрѣша́етъ ли своего̀ вола̀ и҆лѝ ѻ҆сла̀ ѿ ꙗ҆́слїй, и҆ ве́дъ напаѧ́етъ;
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
ταύτην δέ, θυγατέρα Ἀβραὰμ οὖσαν, ἣν ἔδησεν ὁ σατανᾶς ἰδοὺ δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη, οὐκ ἔδει λυθῆναι ἀπὸ τοῦ δεσμοῦ τούτου τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ σαββάτου;
сїю́ же дще́рь а҆враа́млю сꙋ́щꙋ, ю҆́же свѧза̀ сатана̀, сѐ, ѻ҆смоена́десѧте лѣ́то, не досто́ѧше ли разрѣши́тисѧ є҆́й ѿ ю҆́зы сеѧ̀ въ де́нь сꙋббѡ́тный;
And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
καὶ ταῦτα λέγοντος αὐτοῦ κατῃσχύνοντο πάντες οἱ ἀντικείμενοι αὐτῷ, καὶ πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος ἔχαιρεν ἐπὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐνδόξοις τοῖς γινομένοις ὑπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
И҆ сїѧ̑ є҆мꙋ̀ гл҃ющꙋ, стыдѧ́хꙋсѧ всѝ противлѧ́ющїисѧ є҆мꙋ̀: и҆ всѝ лю́дїе ра́довахꙋсѧ ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ сла́вныхъ быва́ющихъ ѿ негѡ̀.
