Notes on this text (3)
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- Exodus 36–39 follow the Septuagint's order; the digital source has no verse divisions there, so Exodus 36:8–end and chapters 37, 38 and 39 each appear as one block.
- Not shown: the lectionary pericope numbers (зача́ло) and the marginal glosses of the digital source. The Prayer of Manasseh stands at the end of 2 Chronicles (36:24), as in the Slavonic Bible; the prologue of Sirach and the opening verse of Lamentations are joined to verse 1.

1 И҆ речѐ є҆лїссе́й: слы́шите сло́во гдⷭ҇не, си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: ꙗ҆́коже ча́съ се́й, ᲂу҆́трѡ мѣ́ра мꙋкѝ пшени́чны бꙋ́детъ за сі́кль є҆ди́нъ, и҆ двѣ̀ мѣ̑ры ꙗ҆чме́нѧ за сі́кль є҆ди́нъ во вратѣ́хъ самарі́и.
1 Elisha said, “Hear Yahweh’s word. Yahweh says, ‘Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour will be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.’”
2 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ трїста́тъ, на є҆гѡ́же рꙋкꙋ̀ ца́рь почива́ше, и҆ речѐ и҆ є҆лїссе́ю: сѐ, а҆́ще ѿве́рзетъ гдⷭ҇ь и҆ хлѧ̑би небє́сныѧ, то̀ не бꙋ́детъ глаго́лъ се́й. И҆ є҆лїссе́й речѐ: сѐ, ты̀ ᲂу҆́зриши ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма, и҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ не и҆́маши ꙗ҆́сти.
2 Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, “Behold, if Yahweh made windows in heaven, could this thing be?” He said, “Behold, you will see it with your eyes, but will not eat of it.”
3 И҆ бѧ́хꙋ четы́ре мꙋ́жа прокаже́ни при вратѣ́хъ гра́да. И҆ речѐ мꙋ́жъ ко и҆́скреннемꙋ своемꙋ̀: что̀ мы̀ сѣди́мъ здѣ̀ до́ндеже ᲂу҆́мремъ;
3 Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate. They said to one another, “Why do we sit here until we die?
4 а҆́ще рече́мъ: вни́демъ во гра́дъ, то̀ гла́дъ є҆́сть во гра́дѣ, и҆ ᲂу҆́мремъ та́мѡ: а҆́ще же сѣди́мъ здѣ̀, то̀ и҆ та́кѡ ᲂу҆́мремъ: и҆ нн҃ѣ и҆́демъ и҆ вни́демъ въ по́лкъ сѷрі́йскїй: а҆́ще живѧ́тъ ны̀, жи́ви бꙋ́демъ: а҆́ще ли ᲂу҆мертвѧ́тъ ны̀, то̀ ᲂу҆́мремъ.
4 If we say, ‘We will enter into the city,’ then the famine is in the city, and we will die there. If we sit still here, we also die. Now therefore come, and let’s surrender to the army of the Syrians. If they save us alive, we will live; and if they kill us, we will only die.”
5 И҆ воста́ша въ сꙋмра́цѣ и҆тѝ въ по́лкъ сѷрі́йскїй и҆ внидо́ша средѣ̀ полка̀ сѷрі́йска, и҆ сѐ, не бѣ̀ мꙋ́жа тꙋ̀.
5 They rose up in the twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians. When they had come to the outermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, no man was there.
6 И҆ гдⷭ҇ь слы́шанъ сотворѝ полкꙋ̀ сѷрі́йскꙋ гла́съ колесни́цъ и҆ гла́съ ко́ней и҆ гла́съ си́лы вели́кїѧ. И҆ речѐ мꙋ́жъ ко бра́тꙋ своемꙋ̀: сѐ, нн҃ѣ наѧ́лъ є҆́сть на на́съ ца́рь і҆и҃левъ царѝ хеттє́йски и҆ цари̑ є҆гѵ́пєтскїѧ прїитѝ на ны̀.
6 For the Lord had made the army of the Syrians to hear the sound of chariots and the sound of horses, even the noise of a great army; and they said to one another, “Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us.”
7 И҆ воста́ша, и҆ бѣжа́ша въ сꙋмра́цѣ, и҆ ѡ҆ста́виша сѣ̑ни своѧ̑ и҆ ко́ни своѧ̑ и҆ ѻ҆слы̀ своѧ̑, ꙗ҆́коже бы́ша во станꙋ̀, и҆ бѣжа́ша дꙋшѝ ра́ди своеѧ̀.
7 Therefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, their horses, and their donkeys, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 И҆ внидо́ша прокаже́ннїи сі́и до среды̀ полка̀, и҆ внидо́ша въ сѣ́нь є҆ди́нꙋ, и҆ ꙗ҆до́ша и҆ пи́ша, и҆ взѧ́ша ѿтꙋ́дꙋ сребро̀ и҆ зла́то и҆ ѻ҆дє́жды, и҆ ѿидо́ша, и҆ скры́ша: и҆ возврати́шасѧ, и҆ внидо́ша въ дрꙋгꙋ́ю сѣ́нь, и҆ взѧ́ша ѿтꙋ́дꙋ, и҆ ѿидо́ша, и҆ скры́ша.
8 When these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank, then carried away silver, gold, and clothing and went and hid it. Then they came back, and entered into another tent and carried things from there also, and went and hid them.
9 И҆ речѐ мꙋ́жъ ко и҆́скреннемꙋ своемꙋ̀: не та́кѡ мы̀ твори́мъ: де́нь се́й де́нь благоговѣ́щенїѧ є҆́сть, мы́ же молчи́мъ и҆ ме́длимъ до свѣ́та ᲂу҆́треннѧгѡ, и҆ ѡ҆брѧ́щемъ беззако́нїе: и҆ нн҃ѣ прїи́демъ и҆ вни́демъ, и҆ возвѣсти́мъ въ домꙋ̀ царе́вѣ.
9 Then they said to one another, “We aren’t doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we keep silent. If we wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us. Now therefore come, let’s go and tell the king’s household.”
10 И҆ внидо́ша, и҆ возопи́ша ко вратѡ́мъ гра́да и҆ возвѣсти́ша и҆̀мъ, глаго́люще: внидо́хомъ въ по́лкъ сѷрі́йскїй, и҆ сѐ, не бы́сть тꙋ̀ мꙋ́жа, ни гла́са человѣ́ча, но то́кмѡ ко́ни привѧ́зани, и҆ ѻ҆слѧ́та, и҆ сѣ̑ни и҆́хъ ꙗ҆́коже сꙋ́ть.
10 So they came and called to the city gatekeepers; and they told them, “We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, not even a man’s voice, but the horses tied, and the donkeys tied, and the tents as they were.”
11 И҆ возопи́ша вра́тницы, и҆ возвѣсти́ша въ домꙋ̀ царе́вѣ внꙋ́трь.
11 Then the gatekeepers called out and told it to the king’s household within.
12 И҆ воста̀ но́щїю ца́рь и҆ речѐ ко ѻ҆трокѡ́мъ свои̑мъ: возвѣщꙋ̀ ва́мъ нн҃ѣ, ꙗ҆̀же сотвори́ша на́мъ сѷрі́ане: разꙋмѣ́ша, ꙗ҆́кѡ гла́дни є҆смы̀, и҆ и҆зыдо́ша и҆з̾ ста́на, и҆ сокры́шасѧ на селѣ̀, глаго́люще: ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆зы́дꙋтъ и҆з̾ гра́да, и҆ и҆́мемъ ѧ҆̀ жи̑вы и҆ во гра́дъ вни́демъ.
12 The king arose in the night, and said to his servants, “I will now show you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we are hungry. Therefore they have gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, ‘When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.’”
13 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ є҆ди́нъ ѿ ѻ҆́трѡкъ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ речѐ: да во́змꙋтъ нн҃ѣ пѧ́ть ко́ней ѡ҆ста́вшихъ, и҆́же ѡ҆ста́шасѧ здѣ̀, сѐ, сꙋ́ть ᲂу҆ толи́кагѡ мно́жества і҆и҃лева ѡ҆ста́вшїисѧ, и҆ по́слемъ та́мѡ, и҆ ᲂу҆́зримъ.
13 One of his servants answered, “Please let some people take five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city. Behold, they are like all the multitude of Israel who are left in it. Behold, they are like all the multitude of Israel who are consumed. Let’s send and see.”
14 И҆ взѧ́ша два̀ вса́дника ко́ней: и҆ посла̀ ца́рь і҆и҃левъ в̾слѣ́дъ царѧ̀ сѵ́рска, глаго́лѧ: и҆ди́те и҆ ви́дите.
14 Therefore they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent them out to the Syrian army, saying, “Go and see.”
15 И҆ и҆до́ша в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ да́же до і҆ѻрда́на, и҆ сѐ, ве́сь пꙋ́ть и҆спо́лненъ ѻ҆де́ждъ и҆ ѻ҆рꙋ́жїѧ, ꙗ҆̀же поверго́ша сѷрі́ане, внегда̀ ᲂу҆страши́тсѧ и҆̀мъ. И҆ возврати́шасѧ по́сланнїи, и҆ возвѣсти́ша царю̀.
15 They went after them to the Jordan; and behold, all the path was full of garments and equipment which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. The messengers returned and told the king.
16 И҆ и҆зыдо́ша лю́дїе, и҆ разгра́биша ве́сь ста́нъ сѵ́рскїй. И҆ бы́сть мѣ́ра мꙋкѝ пшени́чны за сі́кль є҆ди́нъ и҆ двѣ̀ мѣ̑ры ꙗ҆чме́нѧ за сі́кль, по гл҃ꙋ гдⷭ҇ню.
16 The people went out and plundered the camp of the Syrians. So a seah of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to Yahweh’s word.
17 И҆ ца́рь приста́ви трїста́та, на є҆гѡ́же рꙋцѣ̀ ца́рь почива́ше, ᲂу҆ вра́тъ: и҆ попра́ша є҆го̀ лю́дїе во вратѣ́хъ, и҆ ᲂу҆́мре, ꙗ҆́коже глаго́ла человѣ́къ бж҃їй, и҆́же глаго́ла, є҆гда̀ по́сланный прїи́де къ немꙋ̀.
17 The king had appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to be in charge of the gate; and the people trampled over him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.
18 И҆ бы́сть ꙗ҆́коже речѐ є҆лїссе́й къ царю̀ глаго́лѧ: двѣ̀ мѣ̑ры ꙗ҆чме́нѧ за сі́кль є҆ди́нъ, и҆ мѣ́ра мꙋкѝ пшени́чны за сі́кль: и҆ бꙋ́детъ ꙗ҆́коже се́й ча́съ заꙋ́тра во вратѣ́хъ самарі́и.
18 It happened as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, “Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be tomorrow about this time in the gate of Samaria;”
19 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ трїста́тъ є҆лїссе́ю и҆ речѐ: а҆́ще гдⷭ҇ь ѿве́рзетъ хлѧ̑би небє́сныѧ, не бꙋ́детъ глаго́лъ се́й. И҆ речѐ є҆лїссе́й: сѐ, ᲂу҆́зриши ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма, и҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ и҆ не и҆́маши ꙗ҆́сти.
19 and that captain answered the man of God, and said, “Now, behold, if Yahweh made windows in heaven, might such a thing be?” and he said, “Behold, you will see it with your eyes, but will not eat of it.”
20 И҆ бы́сть та́кѡ, и҆ попра́ша є҆го̀ лю́дїе во вратѣ́хъ, и҆ ᲂу҆́мре.
20 It happened like that to him, for the people trampled over him in the gate, and he died.
