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 посла̀ і҆исꙋ́съ сы́нъ наѵи́нъ и҆з̾ сатті́на два̀ ю҆́ношы соглѧ́дати вта́й, глаго́лѧ: взы́дите и҆ ви́дите зе́млю и҆ і҆ерїхѡ́нъ. И҆ шє́дша два̀ ю҆́ношы внидо́ста во і҆ерїхѡ́нъ и҆ внидо́ста въ до́мъ жены̀ блꙋдни́цы, є҆́йже и҆́мѧ раа́въ: и҆ вита́ста та́мѡ.

1 Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent two men out of Shittim as spies, saying, “Go, view the land, including Jericho.” They went and came into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab, and slept there.

2 И҆ повѣ́даша царю̀ і҆ерїхѡ́нскомꙋ, глаго́люще: сѐ, мꙋ́жїе внидо́ша сѣ́мѡ (въ сїю̀ но́щь) ѿ сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ соглѧ́дати зе́млю.

2 The king of Jericho was told, “Behold, men of the children of Israel came in here tonight to spy out the land.”

3 И҆ посла̀ ца́рь і҆ерїхѡ́нскїй и҆ речѐ къ раа́вѣ, глаго́лѧ: и҆зведѝ мꙋ́жы вше́дшыѧ въ до́мъ тво́й но́щїю: соглѧ́дати бо зе́млю прїидо́ша.

3 Jericho’s king sent to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered into your house; for they have come to spy out all the land.”

4 И҆ пое́мши жена̀ два̀ мꙋ̑жа, сокры̀ и҆̀хъ: и҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ, глаго́лющи: прїидо́ша ко мнѣ̀ мꙋ́жїе, но не вѣ́мъ ѿкꙋ́дꙋ бы́ша:

4 The woman took the two men and hid them. Then she said, “Yes, the men came to me, but I didn’t know where they came from.

5 є҆гда́ же врата̀ затворѧ́хꙋ въ сꙋмра́ки, и҆ мꙋ́жїе и҆зыдо́ша: не вѣ́мъ ка́мѡ поидо́ша: пожени́те ско́рѡ в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ, а҆́ще пости́гнете и҆̀хъ.

5 About the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, the men went out. Where the men went, I don’t know. Pursue them quickly. You may catch up with them.”

6 Ѻ҆на́ же возведѐ ѧ҆̀ на хра́минꙋ и҆ сокры̀ ѧ҆̀ въ па́здерѣ льнѧ́нѣ со́бранѣмъ ᲂу҆ неѧ̀ на хра́минѣ.

6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hidden them under the stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof.

7 И҆ мꙋ́жїе гна́ша в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ пꙋте́мъ ко і҆ѻрда́нꙋ къ прехо́дѡмъ, и҆ врата̀ затворє́ны бы́ша.

7 The men pursued them along the way to the fords of the Jordan River. As soon as those who pursued them had gone out, they shut the gate.

8 И҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ и҆зыдо́ша женꙋ́щїи в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ, и҆ сі́и пре́жде не́же ᲂу҆снꙋ́ти и҆̀мъ, и҆ ѻ҆на̀ взы́де къ ни̑мъ на хра́минꙋ и҆ речѐ къ ни̑мъ:

8 Before they had lain down, she came up to them on the roof.

9 вѣ́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ предадѐ гдⷭ҇ь зе́млю (сїю̀) ва́мъ: нападе́ бо стра́хъ ва́шъ на ны̀, и҆ ᲂу҆жасо́шасѧ всѝ ѡ҆бита́ющїи на землѝ ѿ лица̀ ва́шегѡ:

9 She said to the men, “I know that Yahweh has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.

10 слы́шахомъ бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆зсꙋшѝ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ мо́ре чермно́е пред̾ лице́мъ ва́шимъ, є҆гда̀ и҆схожда́сте и҆з̾ є҆гѵ́пта, и҆ є҆ли̑ка сотвори́сте двои́мъ царє́мъ а҆моррє́йскимъ, и҆̀же бы́ша ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ і҆ѻрда́на, сиѡ́нꙋ и҆ ѡ҆́гꙋ, и҆̀хже потреби́сте:

10 For we have heard how Yahweh dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

11 и҆ слы́шавше мы̀ ᲂу҆жасо́хомсѧ въ се́рдцы на́шемъ, и҆ не ста̀ ктомꙋ̀ дꙋ́хъ ни во є҆ди́нѣмъ ѿ на́съ ѿ лица̀ ва́шегѡ: ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ва́шъ, бг҃ъ на нб҃сѝ горѣ̀ и҆ на землѝ до́лѣ:

11 As soon as we had heard it, our hearts melted, and there wasn’t any more spirit in any man, because of you: for Yahweh your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.

12 и҆ нн҃ѣ клени́тесѧ мнѣ̀ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ (ва́шимъ), ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ творю̀ ми́лость ва́мъ, да сотвори́те и҆ вы̀ ми́лость въ домꙋ̀ ѻ҆тца̀ моегѡ̀, и҆ дади́те мѝ зна́менїе и҆́стинно:

12 Now therefore, please swear to me by Yahweh, since I have dealt kindly with you, that you also will deal kindly with my father’s house, and give me a true sign;

13 и҆ ѡ҆живи́те до́мъ ѻ҆тца̀ моегѡ̀, и҆ ма́терь мою̀, и҆ бра́тїю мою̀, и҆ сєстры̀ моѧ̑, и҆ всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка сꙋ́ть и҆̀мъ, и҆ и҆зми́те дꙋ́шы на́шѧ ѿ сме́рти.

13 and that you will save alive my father, my mother, my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death.”

14 И҆ реко́ша є҆́й мꙋ́жїе: дꙋша̀ на́ша вмѣ́стѡ ва́съ на сме́рть, а҆́ще нн҃ѣ не ѡ҆б̾ѧви́ши на́съ. Ѻ҆на́ же речѐ: и҆ бꙋ́детъ є҆гда̀ преда́стъ гдⷭ҇ь ва́мъ гра́дъ (се́й), сотвори́те мнѣ̀ ми́лость и҆ и҆́стинꙋ.

14 The men said to her, “Our life for yours, if you don’t talk about this business of ours; and it shall be, when Yahweh gives us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you.”

15 И҆ свѣ́си и҆̀хъ на ве́рвѣ ѻ҆кно́мъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ до́мъ є҆ѧ̀ при стѣнѣ̀, и҆ при стѣнѣ̀ сїѧ̀ живѧ́ше:

15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was on the side of the wall, and she lived on the wall.

16 и҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ: ѿиди́те въ го́рꙋ, да не срѧ́щꙋтъ ва́съ гонѧ́щїи, и҆ скры́йтесѧ та́мѡ трѝ дни̑, до́ндеже возвратѧ́тсѧ гонѧ́щїи в̾слѣ́дъ ва́съ: и҆ по си́хъ ѿи́дете въ пꙋ́ть ва́шъ.

16 She said to them, “Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers find you. Hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward, you may go your way.”

17 И҆ рѣ́ша къ не́й мꙋ́жїе: непови́нни є҆смы̀ клѧ́твѣ се́й твое́й, є҆́юже заклѧ́ла є҆сѝ на́съ:

17 The men said to her, “We will be guiltless of this your oath which you’ve made us to swear.

18 сѐ, мы̀ вхо́димъ въ ча́сть гра́да, и҆ поста́виши зна́менїе, ве́рвь червле́нꙋ, сїю̀ да ѡ҆бѧ́жеши ᲂу҆ ѻ҆кна̀, и҆́мже спꙋсти́ла є҆сѝ на́съ: ѻ҆тца́ же твоего̀ и҆ ма́терь твою̀, и҆ бра́тїю твою̀ и҆ ве́сь до́мъ ѻ҆тца̀ твоегѡ̀ да собере́ши къ себѣ̀ въ до́мъ тво́й:

18 Behold, when we come into the land, tie this line of scarlet thread in the window which you used to let us down. Gather to yourself into the house your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household.

19 и҆ бꙋ́детъ всѧ́къ, и҆́же а҆́ще и҆зы́детъ и҆з̾ две́рїй до́мꙋ твоегѡ̀ во́нъ, са́мъ себѣ̀ пови́ненъ бꙋ́детъ, мы́ же непови́нни (бꙋ́демъ) клѧ́твѣ твое́й се́й: и҆ є҆ли́цы а҆́ще съ тобо́ю бꙋ́дꙋтъ въ домꙋ̀ твое́мъ, мы̀ бꙋ́демъ пови́нни, а҆́ще рꙋка̀ прико́снетсѧ и҆́хъ:

19 It shall be that whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, and we will be guiltless. Whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is on him.

20 а҆́ще же кто̀ на́съ ѡ҆би́дитъ, и҆лѝ ѿкры́етъ словеса̀ на̑ша сїѧ̑, бꙋ́демъ непови́нни клѧ́твѣ твое́й се́й, є҆́юже заклѧ́ла є҆сѝ на́съ.

20 But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you’ve made us to swear.”

21 И҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ: по словесѝ ва́шемꙋ та́кѡ да бꙋ́детъ. И҆ ѿпꙋстѝ и҆̀хъ, и҆ ѿидо́ша: и҆ привѧза̀ ве́рвь червле́нꙋ ᲂу҆ ѻ҆кна̀.

21 She said, “Let it be as you have said.” She sent them away, and they departed. Then she tied the scarlet line in the window.

22 И҆ ѿидо́ша, и҆ проидо́ша въ го́рꙋ, и҆ пребы́ша та́мѡ трѝ дни̑, до́ндеже возврати́шасѧ гна́вшїи. И҆ и҆ска́ша гонѧ́щїи по всѣ̑мъ пꙋтє́мъ, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣто́ша.

22 They went and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. The pursuers sought them all along the way, but didn’t find them.

23 И҆ возврати́стасѧ два̀ ю҆́ношы и҆ снидо́ста съ горы̀: и҆ преидо́ста (і҆ѻрда́нъ) ко і҆исꙋ́сꙋ сы́нꙋ наѵи́нꙋ, и҆ повѣ́даста є҆мꙋ̀ всѧ̑ слꙋчи̑вшаѧсѧ и҆́ма:

23 Then the two men returned, descended from the mountain, crossed the river, and came to Joshua the son of Nun. They told him all that had happened to them.

24 и҆ рѣ́ста ко і҆исꙋ́сꙋ: ꙗ҆́кѡ предадѐ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ на́шъ въ рꙋ́цѣ на́ши всю̀ зе́млю, и҆ ᲂу҆боѧ́шасѧ всѝ живꙋ́щїи на землѝ то́й ѿ на́съ.

24 They said to Joshua, “Truly Yahweh has delivered all the land into our hands. Moreover, all the inhabitants of the land melt away before us.”
