1 И҆ воцари́всѧ да́рїй сотворѝ ве́черю вели́кꙋ всѣ̑мъ, и҆̀же под̾ ни́мъ, и҆ всѣ̑мъ, и҆̀же ѿ до́мꙋ ро́да є҆гѡ̀, и҆ всѣ̑мъ вельмо́жамъ ми̑дскимъ и҆ пє́рсскимъ,
1 Now King Darius made a great feast for all his subjects, for all who were born in his house, for all the princes of Media and of Persia,
2 и҆ всѣ̑мъ сатра́пѡмъ, и҆ намѣ́стникѡмъ, и҆ воево́дамъ, и҆̀же под̾ ни́мъ ѿ і҆нді́и да́же до є҆ѳїо́пїи на сто̀ два́десѧть се́дмь воево́дствъ.
2 and for all the local governors and captains and governors who were under him, from India to Ethiopia, in the one hundred twenty seven provinces.
3 И҆ є҆гда̀ ꙗ҆до́ша и҆ пи́ша, и҆ насы́тившесѧ возврати́шасѧ, тогда̀ да́рїй ца́рь вни́де въ ло́жницꙋ свою̀, и҆ поспа̀ и҆ возбꙋди́сѧ.
3 They ate and drank, and when they were satisfied went home. Then King Darius went into his bedchamber and slept, but awakened out of his sleep.
4 Тогда̀ трїѐ ю҆́нѡши тѣле́снїи стра́жы, и҆̀же стрежа́хꙋ тѣ́ло царе́во, реко́ша дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ:
4 Then the three young men of the bodyguard, who guarded the king, spoke one to another:
5 рце́мъ кі́йждо ѿ на́съ є҆ди́но сло́во: и҆ и҆́же превозмо́жетъ, и҆ є҆гѡ́же ꙗ҆ви́тсѧ сло́во мꙋдрѣ́йше дрꙋга́гѡ, да́стъ є҆мꙋ̀ ца́рь да́рїй да́ры вели̑кїѧ и҆ по́чєсти вели̑кїѧ,
5 “Let every one of us state what one thing is strongest. King Darius will give him whose statement seems wiser than the others great gifts and great honors in token of victory.
6 и҆ порфѵ́рою ѡ҆дѣ́ѧнъ бꙋ́детъ, и҆ во зла́тѣ пи́ти и҆ на зла́тѣ спа́ти, и҆ колесни́цꙋ златоꙋ́зднꙋ, и҆ кїда́ръ вѷссо́нный, и҆ гри́внꙋ ѡ҆́крестъ вы́и,
6 He shall be clothed in purple, drink from gold cups, sleep on a gold bed, and have a chariot with bridles of gold, a fine linen turban, and a chain around his neck.
7 и҆ вторы́й сѧ́детъ по да́рїи ра́ди премꙋ́дрости своеѧ̀, и҆ сро́дникъ да́рїевъ нарече́тсѧ.
7 He shall sit next to Darius because of his wisdom, and shall be called cousin of Darius.”
8 И҆ тогда̀ написа́вше кі́йждо своѐ сло́во запеча́таша и҆ подложи́ша под̾ возгла́вїе да́рїа царѧ̀,
8 Then they each wrote his sentence, sealed them, and laid them under King Darius’ pillow,
9 и҆ реко́ша: є҆гда̀ воста́нетъ ца́рь, дадꙋ́тъ є҆мꙋ̀ писа́нїе, и҆ є҆го́же разсꙋ́дитъ ца́рь и҆ трѝ вельмѡ́жи пе́рсстїи, ꙗ҆́кѡ сло́во є҆гѡ̀ мꙋдрѣ́йше є҆́сть, томꙋ̀ да да́стсѧ побѣ́да, ꙗ҆́коже пи́сано є҆́сть,
9 and said, “When the king wakes up, someone will give him the writing. Whoever the king and the three princes of Persia judge that his sentence is the wisest, to him shall the victory be given, as it is written.”
10 Є҆ди́нъ написа̀: сильнѣ́е є҆́сть вїно̀,
10 The first wrote, “Wine is the strongest.”
11 Дрꙋгі́й написа̀: сильнѣ́е є҆́сть ца́рь.
11 The second wrote, “The king is strongest.”
12 Тре́тїй написа̀: сильнѣ́е сꙋ́ть жєны̀, па́че же всѣ́хъ побѣжда́етъ и҆́стина.
12 The third wrote, “Women are strongest, but above all things Truth is the victor.”
13 Є҆гда́ же воста̀ ца́рь, взе́мше писа̑нїѧ да́ша є҆мꙋ̀, и҆ прочтѐ.
13 Now when the king woke up, they took the writing and gave it to him, so he read it.
14 И҆ посла́въ созва̀ всѣ́хъ вельмо́жей пе́рсскихъ и҆ ми́дскихъ и҆ сатра́пѡвъ, и҆ воево́дъ и҆ намѣ́стникѡвъ и҆ ѵ҆па́тѡвъ,
14 Sending out, he called all the princes of Persia and of Media, the local governors, the captains, the governors, and the chief officers
15 и҆ сѣ́де въ совѣ́тнѣй пала́тѣ, и҆ прочте́но бы́сть писа́нїе пред̾ ни́ми.
15 and sat himself down in the royal seat of judgment; and the writing was read before them.
16 И҆ речѐ: призови́те ю҆́ношъ, и҆ ті́и и҆звѣстѧ́тъ словеса̀ своѧ̑. И҆ при́звани бы́ша и҆ внидо́ша.
16 He said, “Call the young men, and they shall explain their own sentences. So they were called and came in.
17 И҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ: возвѣсти́те на́мъ ѡ҆ тѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же пи̑сана сꙋ́ть. И҆ нача̀ пе́рвый, и҆́же глаго́ла ѡ҆ крѣ́пости вїна̀,
17 They said to them, “Explain what you have written.” Then the first, who had spoken of the strength of wine, began
18 и҆ речѐ си́це: ѽ, мꙋ́жїе, ко́ль премога́етъ вїно̀! всѣ́хъ человѣ̑къ пїю́щихъ є҆го̀ прельща́етъ:
18 and said this: “O sirs, how exceedingly strong wine is! It causes all men who drink it to go astray.
19 ᲂу҆́мъ царе́въ и҆ си́рагѡ твори́тъ ᲂу҆́мъ є҆ди́нъ, и҆ раба̀ и҆ свобо́днагѡ, и҆ ᲂу҆бо́гагѡ и҆ бога́тагѡ,
19 It makes the mind of the king and of the fatherless child to be the same, likewise of the bondman and of the freeman, of the poor man and of the rich.
20 и҆ всѧ́къ ᲂу҆́мъ превраща́етъ въ безстра́шїе и҆ весе́лїе, и҆ не па́мѧтꙋетъ всѧ́кїѧ печа́ли и҆ всѧ́кагѡ до́лга:
20 It also turns every thought into cheer and mirth, so that a man remembers neither sorrow nor debt.
21 и҆ всѧ̑ сердца̀ сотворѧ́етъ бога̑та, и҆ не па́мѧтꙋетъ царѧ̀, нижѐ вельмо́жи, и҆ всѧ̑ по тала́нтѡмъ глаго́лати твори́тъ:
21 It makes every heart rich, so that a man remembers neither king nor local governor. It makes people say things in large amounts.
22 и҆ не па́мѧтꙋютъ, є҆гда̀ пїю́тъ, ᲂу҆гожда́ти дрꙋгѡ́мъ и҆ бра́тїи, и҆ не мно́гѡ пото́мъ и҆звлача́тъ мечы̀:
22 When they are in their cups, they forget their love both to friends and kindred, and before long draw their swords.
23 и҆ є҆гда̀ ѿ вїна̀ воста́нꙋтъ, не по́мнѧтъ, ꙗ҆̀же сотвори́ша:
23 But when they awake from their wine, they don’t remember what they have done.
24 ѽ, мꙋ́жїе! не премога́етъ ли вїно̀, є҆́же та́кѡ понꙋжда́етъ твори́ти; И҆ ᲂу҆молча̀ глаго́лавый си́це.
24 O sirs, isn’t wine the strongest, seeing that it forces people to do this?” And when he had said this, he stopped speaking.
