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 Сло́во бы́вшее ко і҆еремі́и ѿ гдⷭ҇а, повнегда̀ ѿпꙋстѝ є҆го̀ навꙋзарда́нъ а҆рхїмагі́ръ и҆з̾ ра́мы, є҆гда̀ взѧ̀ є҆го̀ свѧ́занаго пꙋ̑ты ѿ среды̀, ѿ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма и҆ ѿ і҆ꙋ́ды преселе́нїѧ, ведо́мыхъ въ вавѷлѡ́нъ.
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were carried away captive to Babylon.
2 И҆ взѧ̀ є҆го̀ а҆рхїмагі́ръ и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й согл҃алъ є҆́сть ѕла̑ѧ сїѧ̑ на мѣ́сто сїѐ:
2 The captain of the guard took Jeremiah and said to him, “Yahweh your God pronounced this evil on this place;
3 и҆ приведѐ, и҆ сотворѝ гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ, занѐ согрѣши́сте є҆мꙋ̀ и҆ не послꙋ́шасте гла́са є҆гѡ̀, и҆ бы́сть ва́мъ глаго́лъ се́й.
3 and Yahweh has brought it, and done according as he spoke. Because you have sinned against Yahweh, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing has come on you.
4 И҆ сѐ, нн҃ѣ разрѣши́хъ тѧ̀ ѿ ᲂу҆́зъ, ꙗ҆̀же на рꙋкꙋ̀ твоє́ю: а҆́ще тѝ є҆́сть добро̀ и҆тѝ со мно́ю въ вавѷлѡ́нъ, поидѝ, и҆ положꙋ̀ ѻ҆́чи моѝ на тѧ̀: а҆́ще же нѝ, ѡ҆ста́ни здѣ̀: сѐ, всѧ̀ землѧ̀ пред̾ лице́мъ твои́мъ є҆́сть: что̀ и҆зво́лиши, и҆ а҆́може восхо́щеши и҆тѝ, та́мѡ и҆дѝ:
4 Now, behold, I release you today from the chains which are on your hand. If it seems good to you to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will take care of you; but if it seems bad to you to come with me into Babylon, don’t. Behold, all the land is before you. Where it seems good and right to you to go, go there.”
5 и҆ возврати́сѧ ко годолі́и, сы́нꙋ а҆хїка́мовꙋ, сы́нꙋ сафа́ню, є҆го́же поста́ви ца́рь вавѷлѡ́нскїй въ землѝ і҆ꙋ́динѣ, и҆ живѝ съ ни́мъ средѣ̀ люді́й, во всѣ́хъ благи́хъ пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма, є҆́же ходи́ти, и҆ ходѝ. И҆ дадѐ є҆мꙋ̀ а҆рхїмагі́ръ пи́щꙋ и҆ да́ры и҆ ѿпꙋстѝ є҆го̀.
5 Now while he had not yet gone back, “Go back then,” he said, “to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go.” So the captain of the guard gave him food and a present, and let him go.
6 И҆ прїи́де і҆еремі́а ко годолі́и сы́нꙋ а҆хїка́мовꙋ въ массифа́ѳъ и҆ сѣ́де средѣ̀ люді́й свои́хъ ѡ҆ста́вшихсѧ на землѝ.
6 Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and lived with him among the people who were left in the land.
7 И҆ є҆гда̀ ᲂу҆слы́шаша всѝ воевѡ́ды си́лы ꙗ҆́же на селѣ̀, ті́и и҆ си̑лы и҆́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ поста́вилъ є҆́сть ца́рь вавѷлѡ́нскїй годолі́ю сы́на а҆хїка́мова (властели́на) над̾ земле́ю, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ предадѐ є҆мꙋ̀ мꙋ́жы и҆ жєны̀ и҆ дѣ́ти, и҆ ѿ ᲂу҆бо́гихъ землѝ, и҆̀же не преведе́ни бы́ша въ вавѷлѡ́нъ:
7 Now when all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, women, children, and of the poorest of the land, of those who were not carried away captive to Babylon,
8 прїидо́ша ко годолі́и въ массифа́ѳъ і҆сма́илъ сы́нъ наѳані́инъ и҆ і҆ѡана́нъ, и҆ і҆ѡнаѳа́нъ сы́нъ карі́евъ и҆ саре́а сы́нъ ѳанаеме́ѳовъ, и҆ сы́нове ѡ҆фѝ, и҆̀же бѣ́ша и҆з̾ нетѡфа́ѳы, и҆ і҆езоні́а сы́нъ маха́ѳы, ті́и и҆ мꙋ́жїе и҆́хъ.
8 then Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men came to Gedaliah to Mizpah.
9 И҆ клѧ́тсѧ и҆̀мъ годолі́а и҆ мꙋжє́мъ и҆́хъ, глаго́лѧ: не ᲂу҆бо́йтесѧ ѿ лица̀ ѻ҆́трѡкъ халде́йскихъ: всели́тесѧ на землѝ и҆ слꙋжи́те царю̀ вавѷлѡ́нскꙋ, и҆ лꙋ́чше ва́мъ бꙋ́детъ:
9 Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore to them and to their men, saying, “Don’t be afraid to serve the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it will be well with you.
10 и҆ сѐ, а҆́зъ сѣжꙋ̀ въ массифа́ѳѣ, ста́ти проти́вꙋ лицꙋ̀ халде́йскꙋ, и҆̀же а҆́ще прїи́дꙋтъ на ва́съ: вы́ же собери́те вїно̀ и҆ ѻ҆во́щь, и҆ собери́те ма́сло, и҆ влі́йте въ сосꙋ́ды своѧ̑, и҆ всели́тесѧ во гра́ды, ꙗ҆̀же ᲂу҆держа́сте.
10 As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans who will come to us; but you, gather wine and summer fruits and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that you have taken.”
11 И҆ всѝ і҆ꙋде́є, и҆̀же въ землѝ мѡа́вли и҆ въ сынѣ́хъ а҆ммѡ́нихъ, и҆ и҆̀же во і҆дꙋме́и и҆ и҆̀же во все́й землѝ, ᲂу҆слы́шаша, ꙗ҆́кѡ да́лъ є҆́сть ца́рь вавѷлѡ́нскїй ѡ҆ста́нокъ во і҆ꙋ́дѣ и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ поста́вилъ є҆́сть над̾ ни́ми годолі́ю сы́на а҆хїка́мова, сы́на сафа́нова.
11 Likewise when all the Jews who were in Moab, and among the children of Ammon, and in Edom, and who were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan,
12 И҆ прїидо́ша всѝ і҆ꙋде́є ѿ всѣ́хъ мѣ́стъ, въ нѧ́же бѧ́хꙋ ᲂу҆бѣ́гли, и҆ прїидо́ша ко годолі́и въ зе́млю і҆ꙋ́динꙋ въ массифа́ѳъ, и҆ собра́ша вїно̀ и҆ ѻ҆во́щь и҆ ма́сло мно́го ѕѣлѡ̀.
12 then all the Jews returned out of all places where they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and gathered very much wine and summer fruits.
13 І҆ѡана́нъ же сы́нъ карі́евъ и҆ всѝ воевѡ́ды си́лы, и҆̀же на се́лѣхъ, прїидо́ша ко годолі́и въ массифа́ѳъ
13 Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
14 и҆ реко́ша є҆мꙋ̀: вѣ́си ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ велїса̀ ца́рь сынѡ́въ а҆ммѡ́нихъ посла̀ къ тебѣ̀ і҆сма́ила сы́на наѳані́ева порази́ти дꙋ́шꙋ твою̀; И҆ не вѣ́рова и҆̀мъ годолі́а сы́нъ а҆хїка́мль.
14 and said to him, “Do you know that Baalis the king of the children of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take your life?” But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam didn’t believe them.
15 І҆ѡана́нъ же сы́нъ карі́евъ речѐ ко годолі́и ѡ҆́тай въ массифа́ѳѣ, глаго́лѧ: да и҆дꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́бѡ и҆ побїю̀ і҆сма́ила, сы́на наѳані́ина: и҆ никто́же да ᲂу҆вѣ́сть, да не ка́кѡ порази́тъ дꙋ́шꙋ твою̀, и҆ разсы́плетсѧ ве́сь і҆ꙋ́да со́браный къ тебѣ̀, и҆ поги́бнетъ ѡ҆ста́нокъ і҆ꙋ́динъ.
15 Then Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, “Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man will know it. Why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?”
16 И҆ речѐ годолі́а ко і҆ѡана́нꙋ сы́нꙋ карі́евꙋ: не сотворѝ дѣ́ла сегѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ лжꙋ̀ ты̀ глаго́леши на і҆сма́ила.
16 But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said to Johanan the son of Kareah, “You shall not do this thing, for you speak falsely of Ishmael.”
