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 Ѿвѣща́въ же і҆́ѡвъ, речѐ:
1 Then Job answered,
2 а҆́ще бы кто̀ вѣ́сѧ и҆звѣ́силъ гнѣ́въ мо́й, бѡлѣ́зни же моѧ̑ взѧ́лъ бы на мѣ́рило вкꙋ́пѣ,
2 “Oh that my anguish were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!
3 то̀ песка̀ морска́гѡ тѧжча́йшїи бы́ли бы: но, ꙗ҆́коже мни́тсѧ, словеса̀ моѧ̑ ѕла̑ сꙋ́ть.
3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas, therefore my words have been rash.
4 Стрѣ́лы бо гдⷭ҇ни въ тѣ́лѣ мое́мъ сꙋ́ть, и҆́хже ꙗ҆́рость и҆спива́етъ кро́вь мою̀: є҆гда̀ начнꙋ̀ глаго́лати, бодꙋ́тъ мѧ̀.
4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me. My spirit drinks up their poison. The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
5 Что́ бо; є҆да̀ вотщѐ возреве́тъ ди́вїй ѻ҆се́лъ, ра́звѣ бра̑шна просѧ̀; и҆лѝ возреве́тъ гла́сомъ во́лъ, въ ꙗ҆́слехъ и҆мѣ́ѧй бра́шно;
5 Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder?
6 Снѣ́стсѧ ли хлѣ́бъ без̾ со́ли; и҆лѝ є҆́сть вкꙋ́съ во тщи́хъ словесѣ́хъ;
6 Can that which has no flavor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7 Не мо́жетъ бо ᲂу҆тиши́тисѧ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀: смра́дъ бо зрю̀ бра̑шна моѧ̑, ꙗ҆́коже воню̀ льво́вꙋ.
7 My soul refuses to touch them. They are as loathsome food to me.
8 А҆́ще бо да́лъ бы, да прїи́детъ проше́нїе моѐ, и҆ наде́ждꙋ мою̀ да́лъ бы гдⷭ҇ь.
8 “Oh that I might have my request, that God would grant the thing that I long for,
9 Наче́нъ гдⷭ҇ь да ᲂу҆ѧзвлѧ́етъ мѧ̀, до конца́ же да не ᲂу҆бїе́тъ мѧ̀.
9 even that it would please God to crush me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
10 Бꙋ́ди же мѝ гра́дъ гро́бъ, на є҆гѡ́же стѣна́хъ скака́хъ въ не́мъ: не пощажꙋ̀: не солга́хъ бо во словесѣ́хъ ст҃ы́хъ бг҃а моегѡ̀.
10 Let it still be my consolation, yes, let me exult in pain that doesn’t spare, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
11 Ка́ѧ бо крѣ́пость моѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ терплю̀; и҆лѝ ко́е мѝ вре́мѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ терпи́тъ моѧ̀ дꙋша̀;
11 What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient?
12 є҆да̀ крѣ́пость ка́менїѧ крѣ́пость моѧ̀; и҆лѝ плѡ́ти моѧ̑ сꙋ́ть мѣ̑дѧны;
12 Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of bronze?
13 и҆лѝ не ᲂу҆пова́хъ на него̀; по́мощь же ѿ менє̀ ѿстꙋпѝ,
13 Isn’t it that I have no help in me, that wisdom is driven away from me?
14 ѿрече́сѧ ѿ менє̀ ми́лость, посѣще́нїе же гдⷭ҇не презрѣ́ мѧ.
14 “To him who is ready to faint, kindness should be shown from his friend; even to him who forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
15 Не воззрѣ́ша на мѧ̀ бли́жнїи моѝ: ꙗ҆́коже пото́къ ѡ҆скꙋдѣва́ѧй, и҆лѝ ꙗ҆́коже вѡ́лны преидо́ша мѧ̀:
15 My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a brook, as the channel of brooks that pass away;
16 и҆̀же менє̀ боѧ́хꙋсѧ, нн҃ѣ нападо́ша на мѧ̀:
16 which are black by reason of the ice, in which the snow hides itself.
17 ꙗ҆́коже снѣ́гъ и҆лѝ ле́дъ сме́рзлый, є҆гда̀ и҆ста́етъ теплотѣ̀ бы́вшей, не ктомꙋ̀ познава́етсѧ, что̀ бѣ̀:
17 In the dry season, they vanish. When it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
18 та́кѡ и҆ а҆́зъ ѡ҆ста́вленъ є҆́смь ѿ всѣ́хъ, погибо́хъ же и҆ бездо́мокъ бы́хъ:
18 The caravans that travel beside them turn away. They go up into the waste, and perish.
19 ви́дите пꙋти̑ ѳема̑нскїѧ, на стєзѝ савѡ̑нскїѧ смотрѧ́щїи,
19 The caravans of Tema looked. The companies of Sheba waited for them.
20 и҆ стꙋда̀ и҆спо́лнени бꙋ́дꙋтъ на гра́ды и҆ на и҆мѣ̑нїѧ надѣ́ющїисѧ.
20 They were distressed because they were confident. They came there, and were confounded.
21 Нн҃ѣ же и҆ вы̀ наидо́сте на мѧ̀ неми́лостивнѡ: ᲂу҆̀бо ви́дѣвше мо́й стрꙋ́пъ ᲂу҆бо́йтесѧ.
21 For now you are nothing. You see a terror, and are afraid.
22 Что́ бо; є҆да̀ что̀ ᲂу҆ ва́съ проси́хъ, и҆лѝ ва́шеѧ крѣ́пости тре́бꙋю,
22 Did I ever say, ‘Give to me’? or, ‘Offer a present for me from your substance’?
23 да спасе́те мѧ̀ ѿ врагѡ́въ, и҆лѝ и҆з̾ рꙋкѝ си́льныхъ и҆зба́вите мѧ̀;
23 or, ‘Deliver me from the adversary’s hand’? or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors’?
24 Наꙋчи́те мѧ̀, а҆́зъ же ᲂу҆молчꙋ̀: а҆́ще что̀ погрѣши́хъ, скажи́те мѝ.
24 “Teach me, and I will hold my peace. Cause me to understand my error.
25 Но, ꙗ҆́коже мни́тсѧ, ѕла̑ (сꙋ́ть) мꙋ́жа и҆́стиннагѡ словеса̀, не ѿ ва́съ бо крѣ́пости прошꙋ̀:
25 How forcible are words of uprightness! But your reproof, what does it reprove?
26 нижѐ ѡ҆бличе́нїе ва́ше словесы̀ мѧ̀ ᲂу҆толи́тъ, ниже́ бо вѣща́нїѧ ва́шегѡ слове́съ стерплю̀.
26 Do you intend to reprove words, since the speeches of one who is desperate are as wind?
27 Ѻ҆ба́че ꙗ҆́кѡ на си́ра напа́даете, наска́чете же на дрꙋ́га ва́шего.
27 Yes, you would even cast lots for the fatherless, and make merchandise of your friend.
28 Нн҃ѣ же воззрѣ́въ на ли́ца ва̑ша, не солжꙋ̀.
28 Now therefore be pleased to look at me, for surely I will not lie to your face.
29 Сѧ́дите нн҃ѣ, и҆ да не бꙋ́детъ непра́ведно, и҆ па́ки ко пра́ведномꙋ сни́дитесѧ.
29 Please return. Let there be no injustice. Yes, return again. My cause is righteous.
30 И҆́бо нѣ́сть въ ѧ҆зы́цѣ мое́мъ непра́вды, и҆ горта́нь мо́й не ра́зꙋмꙋ ли поꙋча́етсѧ;
30 Is there injustice on my tongue? Can’t my taste discern mischievous things?
