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 повѣ́даша і҆ѡа́вꙋ, глаго́люще: сѐ, ца́рь пла́четъ и҆ рыда́етъ ѡ҆ а҆вессалѡ́мѣ.
1 Joab was told, “Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.”
2 И҆ бы́сть спасе́нїе въ то́й де́нь въ рыда́нїе всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ, ᲂу҆слы́шаша бо лю́дїе въ то́й де́нь, глаго́люще: ꙗ҆́кѡ печа́ленъ є҆́сть ца́рь ѡ҆ сы́нѣ свое́мъ.
2 The victory that day was turned into mourning among all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king grieves for his son.”
3 И҆ ᲂу҆крада́хꙋсѧ лю́дїе въ то́й де́нь є҆́же входи́ти во гра́дъ, ꙗ҆́коже ᲂу҆крада́ютсѧ лю́дїе посра́мленнїи, внегда̀ бѣ́гати и҆̀мъ на бра́ни.
3 The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
4 И҆ ца́рь покры̀ лицѐ своѐ: и҆ возопѝ ца́рь гла́сомъ вели́кимъ, глаго́лѧ: сы́не мо́й, а҆вессалѡ́ме, а҆вессалѡ́ме, сы́не мо́й.
4 The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
5 И҆ вни́де і҆ѡа́въ къ царю̀ въ до́мъ и҆ речѐ: посрами́лъ є҆сѝ дне́сь ли́ца ра̑бъ твои́хъ всѣ́хъ и҆з̾е́мшихъ тѧ̀ дне́сь и҆ дꙋ́шꙋ сынѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ дще́рей твои́хъ и҆ дꙋ́шꙋ же́нъ твои́хъ и҆ подло́жницъ твои́хъ,
5 Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all your servants who today have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;
6 є҆́же люби́ти ненави́дѧщыѧ тебѐ и҆ ненави́дѣти лю́бѧщыѧ тѧ̀: и҆ ꙗ҆ви́лъ є҆сѝ дне́сь, ꙗ҆́кѡ не сꙋ́ть тебѣ̀ кнѧ̑зи, нижѐ ѻ҆́троцы: но разꙋмѣ́хъ дне́сь, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще бы а҆вессалѡ́мъ жи́въ бы́лъ, мы̀ всѝ дне́сь мє́ртвы бы́хомъ бы́ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ тогда̀ пра́во бы́ло бы пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма:
6 in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.
7 и҆ нн҃ѣ воста́въ и҆зы́ди и҆ глаго́ли въ сердца̀ рабѡ́въ твои́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ клѧ́хсѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще не и҆зы́деши дне́сь, не ѡ҆ста́нетъ ни є҆ди́нъ мꙋ́жъ съ тобо́ю въ но́щь сїю̀: и҆ разꙋмѣ́й въ себѣ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѕло̀ тѝ є҆́сть сїѐ па́че всѣ́хъ ѕѡ́лъ, ꙗ҆̀же прїидо́ша на тѧ̀ ѿ ю҆́ности твоеѧ̀ до нн҃ѣ.
7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak to comfort your servants; for I swear by Yahweh, if you don’t go out, not a man will stay with you this night. That would be worse to you than all the evil that has happened to you from your youth until now.”
8 И҆ воста̀ ца́рь и҆ сѣ́де при две́рехъ. И҆ возвѣсти́ша всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ глаго́люще: сѐ, ца́рь сѣди́тъ въ две́рехъ. И҆ внидо́ша всѝ лю́дїе пред̾ лицѐ царе́во пред̾ двє́ри: мꙋ́жїе же і҆и҃лєвы бѣжа́ша во селє́нїѧ своѧ̑.
8 Then the king arose and sat in the gate. The people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” All the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9 И҆ прѧ́хꙋсѧ всѝ лю́дїе во всѣ́хъ колѣ́нахъ і҆и҃левыхъ, глаго́люще: ца́рь даві́дъ и҆зба́ви ны̀ ѿ всѣ́хъ вра̑гъ на́шихъ, и҆ сѐ, и҆з̾ѧ̀ на́съ ѿ рꙋкѝ и҆ноплеме́нничи, и҆ нн҃ѣ бѣжа̀ ѿ землѝ и҆ ѿ ца́рства своегѡ̀ и҆ ѿ а҆вессалѡ́ма:
9 All the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
10 а҆вессалѡ́мъ же, є҆го́же пома́захомъ над̾ на́ми, ᲂу҆́мре на бра́ни: и҆ нн҃ѣ что̀ вы̀ молчи́те, є҆́же возврати́ти царѧ̀; И҆ глаго́лъ всегѡ̀ і҆и҃лѧ прїи́де ко царю̀.
10 Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why don’t you speak a word of bringing the king back?”
11 И҆ ца́рь даві́дъ посла̀ ко садѡ́кꙋ и҆ ко а҆вїаѳа́рꙋ і҆ере́ѡмъ, глаго́лѧ: рцы́те старѣ́йшинамъ і҆ꙋ̑динымъ, глаго́люще: почто̀ бы́сте послѣ́днїи, є҆́же возврати́ти царѧ̀ въ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀; сло́во же всегѡ̀ і҆и҃лѧ прїи́де къ царю̀ въ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀:
11 King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house?
12 бра́тїѧ моѧ̑ вы̀, кѡ́сти моѧ̑ и҆ пло́ть моѧ̀ вы̀ є҆стѐ, то̀ почто̀ бы́сте послѣ́днїи, є҆́же возврати́ти царѧ̀ въ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀;
12 You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’
13 и҆ а҆месса́ю рцы́те: нѣ́си ли ко́сть моѧ̀ и҆ пло́ть моѧ̀ ты̀; и҆ нн҃ѣ сїѧ̑ мѝ да сотвори́тъ бг҃ъ и҆ сїѧ̑ да приложи́тъ, а҆́ще не бꙋ́деши кнѧ́зь си́лы предо мно́ю во всѧ̑ дни̑ вмѣ́стѡ і҆ѡа́ва.
13 Say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you aren’t captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’”
14 И҆ преклонѝ сердца̀ всѣ́хъ мꙋже́й і҆ꙋ́диныхъ ꙗ҆́кѡ мꙋ́жа є҆ди́нагѡ. И҆ посла́ша къ царю̀, глаго́люще: возврати́сѧ ты̀ и҆ всѝ рабѝ твоѝ.
14 He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.”
15 И҆ возврати́сѧ ца́рь и҆ прїи́де до і҆ѻрда́на, и҆ мꙋ́жїе і҆ꙋ̑дины прїидо́ша въ галга́лы є҆́же и҆зы́ти на срѣ́тенїе царю̀, превестѝ царѧ̀ чрез̾ і҆ѻрда́нъ.
15 So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
16 И҆ ᲂу҆скорѝ семе́й сы́нъ гира́нь сы́на і҆емїні́ева, и҆́же ѿ ваꙋрі́ма, и҆ сни́де съ мꙋжмѝ і҆ꙋ́диными во срѣ́тенїе царю̀ даві́дꙋ,
16 Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
17 и҆ ты́сѧща мꙋже́й съ ни́мъ ѿ венїамі́на, и҆ сїва̀ ѻ҆́трокъ до́мꙋ саꙋ́лѧ, и҆ пѧтьна́десѧть сынѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀ съ ни́мъ, и҆ два́десѧть рабѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀ съ ни́мъ: и҆ ᲂу҆пра́виша на і҆ѻрда́нъ пꙋ́ть пред̾ царе́мъ,
17 There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul’s house, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
18 и҆ послꙋжи́ша слꙋже́нїемъ ѡ҆ преведе́нїи царе́вѣ. И҆ пре́йде прехо́дъ є҆́же превестѝ до́мъ царе́въ и҆ сотвори́ти пра́вое пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма є҆гѡ̀. И҆ семе́й сы́нъ гира́нь падѐ на лицы̀ свое́мъ пред̾ царе́мъ, є҆гда̀ прехожда́ше і҆ѻрда́нъ,
18 A ferry boat went to bring over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had come over the Jordan.
19 и҆ речѐ ко царю̀: да не вмѣни́тъ господи́нъ мо́й беззако́нїѧ, и҆ не помѧнѝ є҆ли̑ка непра́вдова ра́бъ тво́й въ де́нь ѡ҆́нъ, во́ньже господи́нъ мо́й ца́рь и҆схожда́ше и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма, є҆́же содержа́ти царю̀ въ се́рдцы свое́мъ:
19 He said to the king, “Don’t let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
20 поне́же разꙋмѣ̀ ра́бъ тво́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ согрѣши́хъ, и҆ сѐ, а҆́зъ прїидо́хъ дне́сь пе́рвѣе всегѡ̀ і҆и҃лѧ и҆ до́мꙋ і҆ѡ́сифлѧ, є҆́же сни́ти мѝ на срѣ́тенїе господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ царю̀.
20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore behold, I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
21 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ а҆ве́сса сы́нъ сарꙋ́инъ и҆ речѐ: сегѡ́ ли ра́ди не ᲂу҆мертви́тсѧ семе́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ проклѧ̀ хрїста̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ;
21 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered, “Shouldn’t Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Yahweh’s anointed?”
22 И҆ речѐ даві́дъ: что̀ мнѣ̀ и҆ ва́мъ, сы́нове сарꙋ̑ины, ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́сте мнѣ̀ дне́сь въ навѣ́тъ; дне́сь не ᲂу҆мертви́тсѧ мꙋ́жъ ѿ і҆и҃лѧ, поне́же не вѣ́мъ ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ дне́сь ца́рствꙋю а҆́зъ над̾ і҆и҃лемъ;
22 David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For don’t I know that I am king over Israel today?”
23 и҆ речѐ ца́рь и҆ семе́ю: не ᲂу҆́мреши. И҆ клѧ́тсѧ є҆мꙋ̀ ца́рь.
23 The king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” The king swore to him.
24 И҆ сѐ, мемфївосѳе́й сы́нъ і҆ѡнаѳа́на сы́на саꙋ́лѧ сни́де на срѣ́тенїе царю̀, и҆ не ѡ҆мы̀ но́гъ свои́хъ, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣ́за ногте́й, нижѐ ᲂу҆пра́ви брады̀ своеѧ̀, и҆ ри́зъ свои́хъ не и҆змы̀ ѿ днѐ тогѡ̀, во́ньже и҆зы́де ца́рь, до днѐ во́ньже то́й возврати́сѧ съ ми́ромъ.
24 Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither groomed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
25 И҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ вни́де во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ на срѣ́тенїе царю̀, и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ ца́рь: что̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ не поше́лъ є҆сѝ со мно́ю, мемфївосѳе́е;
25 When he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why didn’t you go with me, Mephibosheth?”
26 И҆ речѐ къ немꙋ̀ мемфївосѳе́й: го́споди мо́й царю̀, пренебрежѐ менѐ ра́бъ мо́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ речѐ ра́бъ тво́й є҆мꙋ̀: ѡ҆сѣдла́й мѝ ѻ҆слѧ̀, и҆ всѧ́дꙋ на нѐ, и҆ пойдꙋ̀ съ царе́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ хро́мъ ра́бъ тво́й:
26 He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.
27 и҆ ѡ҆болга̀ раба̀ твоего̀ ко господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ царю̀: и҆ господи́нъ мо́й ца́рь ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́гг҃лъ бж҃їй, и҆ сотворѝ благо́е пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма:
27 He has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.
28 ꙗ҆́кѡ не бѣ̀ ве́сь до́мъ ѻ҆тца̀ моегѡ̀, ра́звѣ мꙋ́жїе (пови́ннїи) сме́рти господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ царю̀, и҆ посади́лъ є҆сѝ раба̀ твоего̀ съ ꙗ҆дꙋ́щими на трапе́зѣ твое́й: и҆ ко́е є҆́сть мнѣ̀ є҆щѐ ѡ҆правда́нїе, и҆ возопи́ти мнѣ̀ є҆щѐ къ царю̀;
28 For all my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I yet that I should appeal any more to the king?”
29 И҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ ца́рь: почто̀ глаго́леши є҆щѐ словеса̀ твоѧ̑; рѣ́хъ тебѣ̀ и҆ сївѣ̀: раздѣли́те себѣ̀ се́ла.
29 The king said to him, “Why do you speak any more of your matters? I say, you and Ziba divide the land.”
30 И҆ речѐ мемфївосѳе́й къ царю̀: и҆ всѧ̑ да во́зметъ, повнегда̀ прїитѝ господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ царю̀ въ ми́рѣ въ до́мъ сво́й.
30 Mephibosheth said to the king, “Yes, let him take all, because my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
31 И҆ верзеллі́й галааді́тинъ сни́де и҆з̾ рѡгеллі́ма, и҆ пре́йде съ царе́мъ і҆ѻрда́нъ, є҆́же превестѝ є҆го̀ чрез̾ і҆ѻрда́нъ.
31 Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went over the Jordan with the king to conduct him over the Jordan.
32 И҆ верзеллі́й мꙋ́жъ ста́ръ ѕѣлѡ̀, сы́нъ ѻ҆сми́десѧти лѣ́тъ, и҆ то́й препита̀ царѧ̀, є҆гда̀ живѧ́ше въ манаі́мѣ, ꙗ҆́кѡ мꙋ́жъ бѣ̀ ве́лїй ѕѣлѡ̀.
32 Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even eighty years old. He had provided the king with sustenance while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
33 И҆ речѐ ца́рь къ верзеллі́ю: ты̀ пре́йдеши со мно́ю, и҆ препита́ю ста́рость твою̀ со мно́ю во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ.
33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will sustain you with me in Jerusalem.”
34 И҆ речѐ верзеллі́й къ царю̀: коли́цы дни̑ лѣ́тъ живота̀ моегѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ да взы́дꙋ съ царе́мъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ;
34 Barzillai said to the king, “How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
35 сы́нъ ѻ҆сми́десѧти лѣ́тъ а҆́зъ дне́сь є҆́смь: є҆да̀ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ю посредѣ̀ бла́га и҆ посредѣ̀ лꙋка́ва; и҆лѝ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́етъ є҆щѐ ра́бъ тво́й, є҆́же ꙗ҆́мъ, и҆лѝ є҆́же пїю̀; и҆лѝ ᲂу҆слы́шꙋ гла́съ є҆щѐ пою́щихъ и҆ воспѣва́ющихъ; и҆ вскꙋ́ю бꙋ́детъ є҆щѐ ра́бъ тво́й въ тѧ́жесть господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀ царю̀;
35 I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?
36 ма́лѡ пре́йдетъ ра́бъ тво́й і҆ѻрда́нъ съ царе́мъ: и҆ почто̀ воздае́тъ мѝ ца́рь воздаѧ́нїе сїѐ;
36 Your servant will just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
37 да возврати́тсѧ нн҃ѣ ра́бъ тво́й, и҆ ᲂу҆мрꙋ̀ во гра́дѣ мое́мъ, ᲂу҆ гро́ба ѻ҆тца̀ моегѡ̀ и҆ ма́тере моеѧ̀: и҆ сѐ, ра́бъ тво́й сы́нъ мо́й хамаа́мъ пре́йдетъ съ го́сподемъ мои́мъ царе́мъ, и҆ сотворѝ є҆мꙋ̀ благо́е пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма.
37 Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good to you.”
38 И҆ речѐ ца́рь: со мно́ю да пре́йдетъ хамаа́мъ, и҆ а҆́зъ сотворю̀ є҆мꙋ̀ благо́е пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма мои́ма, и҆ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка и҆збере́тъ себѣ̀ ᲂу҆ менє̀, сотворю̀ тебѣ̀.
38 The king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good to you. Whatever you request of me, that I will do for you.”
39 И҆ преидо́ша всѝ лю́дїе і҆ѻрда́нъ, и҆ ца́рь пре́йде, и҆ цѣлова̀ ца́рь верзеллі́а и҆ благословѝ є҆го̀, и҆ ѿпꙋстѝ є҆го̀ въ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀.
39 All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
40 И҆ пре́йде ца́рь въ галга́лы, и҆ хамаа́мъ пре́йде съ ни́мъ, и҆ всѝ лю́дїе і҆ꙋ̑дины провожда́хꙋ царѧ̀ и҆ по́лъ люді́й і҆и҃левыхъ.
40 So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
41 И҆ сѐ, всѝ мꙋ́жїе і҆и҃лєвы прїидо́ша къ царю̀ и҆ рѣ́ша къ царю̀: что̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆крадо́ша тебѐ бра́тїѧ на́шѧ мꙋ́жїе і҆ꙋ̑дины, и҆ преведо́ша царѧ̀ и҆ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀ чрез̾ і҆ѻрда́нъ, и҆ всѝ мꙋ́жїе даві́дѡвы съ ни́мъ;
41 Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”
42 И҆ ѿвѣща́ша всѝ мꙋ́жїе і҆ꙋ̑дины къ мꙋжє́мъ і҆и҃лєвымъ и҆ рѣ́ша: занѐ бли́жнїй на́мъ ца́рь: и҆ почто̀ та́кѡ разгнѣ́вастесѧ ѡ҆ словесѝ се́мъ; є҆да̀ ꙗ҆́ди ꙗ҆до́хомъ ѿ царѧ̀; и҆лѝ да́ры дадѐ на́мъ, и҆лѝ да̑ни ѿѧ̀ ѿ на́съ;
42 All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”
43 И҆ ѿвѣща́ша мꙋ́жїе і҆и҃льстїи къ мꙋжє́мъ і҆ꙋ̑динымъ и҆ рѣ́ша: де́сѧть рꙋ́къ мы̀ ᲂу҆ царѧ̀, и҆ въ даві́дѣ є҆смы̀ па́че тебє̀, и҆ пе́рвенецъ а҆́зъ, не́жели ты̀: и҆ почто̀ си́це ᲂу҆корѧ́еши мѧ̀; и҆ не вмѣни́сѧ сло́во моѐ пре́жде менє̀ і҆ꙋ́дѣ возврати́ти царѧ̀ мнѣ̀; И҆ ѡ҆тѧгча̀ сло́во мꙋже́й і҆ꙋ́диныхъ па́че слове́съ мꙋже́й і҆и҃левыхъ.
43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
