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 ѡ҆печа́лисѧ і҆ѡ́на печа́лїю вели́кою и҆ смꙋти́сѧ,
1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
2 и҆ помоли́сѧ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ и҆ речѐ: ѽ гдⷭ҇и, не сїѧ̑ ли ᲂу҆́бѡ словеса̀ моѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же глаго́лахъ, є҆щѐ сꙋ́щꙋ мѝ на землѝ мое́й; сегѡ̀ ра́ди предвари́хъ бѣжа́ти въ ѳарсі́съ, занѐ разꙋмѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ млⷭ҇тивъ ты̀ є҆сѝ и҆ ще́дръ, долготерпѣли́въ и҆ многомлⷭ҇тивъ, и҆ ка́ѧйсѧ ѡ҆ ѕло́бахъ (человѣ́ческихъ):
2 He prayed to Yahweh, and said, “Please, Yahweh, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
3 и҆ нн҃ѣ, влⷣко гдⷭ҇и, прїимѝ дꙋ́шꙋ мою̀ ѿ менє̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆́не мѝ ᲂу҆мре́ти, не́жели жи́ти.
3 Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко і҆ѡ́нѣ: а҆́ще ѕѣлѡ̀ ѡ҆печа́лилсѧ є҆сѝ ты̀;
4 Yahweh said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”
5 И҆ и҆зы́де і҆ѡ́на и҆з̾ гра́да и҆ сѣ́де прѧ́мѡ гра́да, и҆ сотворѝ себѣ̀ кꙋ́щꙋ и҆ сѣдѧ́ше под̾ не́ю въ сѣ́ни, до́ндеже ᲂу҆ви́дитъ, что̀ бꙋ́детъ гра́дꙋ.
5 Then Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city, and there made himself a booth and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.
6 И҆ повелѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ты́квѣ, и҆ возрастѐ над̾ главо́ю і҆ѡ́ниною, да бꙋ́детъ сѣ́нь над̾ главо́ю є҆гѡ̀, є҆́же ѡ҆сѣни́ти є҆го̀ ѿ ѕлы́хъ є҆гѡ̀. И҆ возра́довасѧ і҆ѡ́на ѡ҆ ты́квѣ ра́достїю вели́кою.
6 Yahweh God prepared a vine and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
7 И҆ повелѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ че́рвїю ра́ннемꙋ во ᲂу҆́трїе, и҆ под̾ѧдѐ ты́квꙋ, и҆ и҆́зсше.
7 But God prepared a worm at dawn the next day, and it chewed on the vine so that it withered.
8 И҆ бы́сть вкꙋ́пѣ внегда̀ возсїѧ́ти со́лнцꙋ, и҆ повелѣ̀ бг҃ъ вѣ́трꙋ зно́йнꙋ жегꙋ́щꙋ, и҆ поразѝ со́лнце на главꙋ̀ і҆ѡ́нинꙋ, и҆ малодꙋ́шствоваше и҆ ѿрица́шесѧ дꙋшѝ своеѧ̀ и҆ речѐ:
8 When the sun arose, God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he was faint and requested for himself that he might die. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
9 ᲂу҆́не мѝ ᲂу҆мре́ти, не́жели жи́ти. И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ко і҆ѡ́нѣ: ѕѣлѡ́ ли ѡ҆печа́лилсѧ є҆сѝ ты̀ ѡ҆ ты́квѣ; И҆ речѐ (і҆ѡ́на): ѕѣлѡ̀ ѡ҆печа́лихсѧ а҆́зъ да́же до сме́рти.
9 God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?” He said, “I am right to be angry, even to death.”
10 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: ты̀ ѡ҆скорби́лсѧ є҆сѝ ѡ҆ ты́квѣ, ѡ҆ не́йже не трꙋди́лсѧ є҆сѝ, ни воскорми́лъ є҆сѝ є҆ѧ̀, ꙗ҆́же роди́сѧ ѡ҆б̾ но́щь и҆ ѡ҆б̾ но́щь поги́бе:
10 Yahweh said, “You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night and perished in a night.
11 а҆́зъ же не пощаждꙋ́ ли нїнеѵі́и гра́да вели́кагѡ, въ не́мже живꙋ́тъ мно́жайшїи не́же двана́десѧть те́мъ челѡвѣ́къ, и҆̀же не позна́ша десни́цы своеѧ̀, нижѐ шꙋ́йцы своеѧ̀, и҆ ско́ти и҆́хъ мно́зи;
11 Shouldn’t I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can’t discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also many animals?”
