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 прегрѣши́ша сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы прегрѣше́нїемъ вели́кимъ, и҆ взѧ́ша ѿ клѧ́твы: взѧ́ бо а҆ха́ръ сы́нъ хармі́и, сы́на замврі́и, сы́на за́ры, ѿ пле́мене і҆ꙋ́дина, ѿ клѧ́твы. И҆ разгнѣ́васѧ гдⷭ҇ь ꙗ҆́ростїю на сы́ны і҆и҃лєвы.
1 But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the devoted things; for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things. Therefore Yahweh’s anger burned against the children of Israel.
2 И҆ посла̀ і҆исꙋ́съ мꙋ́жы ѿ і҆ерїхѡ́на въ га́й, и҆́же є҆́сть проти́вꙋ виѳа́ѵнъ на восто́къ веѳи́лѧ, и҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ, глаго́лѧ: ше́дше соглѧ́дайте зе́млю. И҆ и҆до́ша мꙋ́жїе и҆ соглѧ́даша га́й.
2 Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth Aven, on the east side of Bethel, and spoke to them, saying, “Go up and spy out the land.” The men went up and spied out Ai.
3 И҆ возврати́шасѧ ко і҆исꙋ́сꙋ и҆ реко́ша є҆мꙋ̀: да не и҆́дꙋтъ всѝ лю́дїе, но ꙗ҆́кѡ двѣ̀ ты́сѧщы и҆лѝ трѝ ты́сѧщы мꙋже́й да и҆́дꙋтъ и҆ да вою́ютъ га́й: да не веде́ши та́мѡ всѣ́хъ люді́й, ма́лѡ бо є҆́сть и҆́хъ (та́мѡ).
3 They returned to Joshua, and said to him, “Don’t let all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and strike Ai. Don’t make all the people to toil there, for there are only a few of them.”
4 И҆ и҆до́ша ѿ люді́й та́мѡ, а҆́ки трѝ ты́сѧщы мꙋже́й, и҆ побѣго́ша ѿ лица̀ мꙋже́й га́йскихъ:
4 So about three thousand men of the people went up there, and they fled before the men of Ai.
5 и҆ ᲂу҆би́ша ѿ ни́хъ мꙋ́жїе га́йстїи ꙗ҆́кѡ три́десѧть и҆ ше́сть мꙋже́й, и҆ ѿгна́ша и҆̀хъ ѿ вра́тъ, до́ндеже сокрꙋши́ша и҆̀хъ на стремни́нѣ: и҆ ᲂу҆жасе́сѧ се́рдце люді́й, и҆ бы́сть ꙗ҆́кѡ вода̀.
5 The men of Ai struck about thirty-six men of them. They chased them from before the gate even to Shebarim, and struck them at the descent. The hearts of the people melted, and became like water.
6 И҆ растерза̀ і҆исꙋ́съ ри̑зы своѧ̑, и҆ падѐ на землѝ на лицѐ своѐ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ да́же до ве́чера, са́мъ и҆ ста́рцы і҆и҃лєвы: и҆ посы́паша пе́рсть на главы̑ своѧ̑.
6 Joshua tore his clothes, and fell to the earth on his face before Yahweh’s ark until the evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust on their heads.
7 И҆ речѐ і҆исꙋ́съ: молю́сѧ, гдⷭ҇и гдⷭ҇и, вскꙋ́ю преведѐ ра́бъ тво́й лю́ди сїѧ̑ чрез̾ і҆ѻрда́нъ преда́ти и҆̀хъ а҆морре́ѡмъ на погꙋбле́нїе; ѽ, да бы́хомъ пребы́ли и҆ всели́лисѧ ᲂу҆ і҆ѻрда́на:
7 Joshua said, “Alas, Lord Yahweh, why have you brought this people over the Jordan at all, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to cause us to perish? I wish that we had been content and lived beyond the Jordan!
8 гдⷭ҇и, что̀ рекꙋ̀; поне́же ѿвратѝ і҆и҃ль вы́ю свою̀ пред̾ враги̑ свои́ми:
8 Oh, Lord, what shall I say, after Israel has turned their backs before their enemies?
9 и҆ ᲂу҆слы́шавъ ханане́й и҆ всѝ живꙋ́щїи на землѝ ѡ҆бы́дꙋтъ на́съ и҆ потребѧ́тъ на́съ ѿ землѝ: и҆ что̀ сотвори́ши и҆́мени твоемꙋ̀ вели́комꙋ;
9 For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and will surround us, and cut off our name from the earth. What will you do for your great name?”
10 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко і҆исꙋ́сꙋ: воста́ни, вскꙋ́ю ты̀ па́лъ є҆сѝ на лицѐ твоѐ;
10 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Get up! Why have you fallen on your face like that?
11 согрѣши́ша лю́дїе и҆ престꙋпи́ша завѣ́тъ мо́й, є҆го́же завѣща́хъ къ ни̑мъ, и҆ ᲂу҆кра́дше ѿ клѧ́твы, скры́ша въ сосꙋ́дѣхъ свои́хъ:
11 Israel has sinned. Yes, they have even transgressed my covenant which I commanded them. Yes, they have even taken some of the devoted things, and have also stolen, and also deceived. They have even put it among their own stuff.
12 сегѡ̀ ра́ди не мо́гꙋтъ сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы ста́ти пред̾ лице́мъ врагѡ́въ свои́хъ, но хребе́тъ ѡ҆братѧ́тъ пред̾ враги̑ свои́ми, ꙗ҆́кѡ клѧ́твою ста́шасѧ: не приложꙋ̀ ксемꙋ̀ бы́ти съ ва́ми, а҆́ще не и҆́змете клѧ́твы ѿ себє̀ сами́хъ:
12 Therefore the children of Israel can’t stand before their enemies. They turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become devoted for destruction. I will not be with you any more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.
13 воста́въ ѡ҆чи́сти лю́ди и҆ рцы̀: ѡ҆чи́ститесѧ на ᲂу҆́тро: ꙗ҆́кѡ сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: клѧ́тва є҆́сть въ ва́съ, не возмо́жете ста́ти пред̾ враги̑ ва́шими, до́ндеже и҆́змете ѿ себє̀ сами́хъ клѧ́твꙋ:
13 Get up! Sanctify the people, and say, ‘Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, for Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, “There is a devoted thing among you, Israel. You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the devoted thing from among you.”
14 и҆ собери́тесѧ всѝ заꙋ́тра по племенѡ́мъ (ва́шымъ), и҆ бꙋ́детъ пле́мѧ, є҆́же пока́жетъ гдⷭ҇ь, да приведе́те по со́нмѡмъ: и҆ со́нмъ, є҆го́же пока́жетъ гдⷭ҇ь, да приведе́те по домѡ́мъ: и҆ до́мъ, є҆го́же пока́жетъ гдⷭ҇ь, да приведе́те по мꙋжє́мъ:
14 In the morning therefore you shall be brought near by your tribes. It shall be that the tribe which Yahweh selects shall come near by families. The family which Yahweh selects shall come near by households. The household which Yahweh selects shall come near man by man.
15 и҆ и҆́же ѡ҆бличи́тсѧ, да сожже́тсѧ ѻ҆гне́мъ, са́мъ и҆ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка сꙋ́ть є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ престꙋпѝ завѣ́тъ гдⷭ҇ень и҆ сотворѝ беззако́нїе во і҆и҃ли.
15 It shall be, that he who is taken with the devoted thing shall be burned with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed Yahweh’s covenant, and because he has done a disgraceful thing in Israel.’”
16 И҆ воста̀ і҆исꙋ́съ заꙋ́тра, и҆ приведѐ люді́й по племенѡ́мъ: и҆ ѡ҆бличи́сѧ пле́мѧ і҆ꙋ́дино.
16 So Joshua rose up early in the morning and brought Israel near by their tribes. The tribe of Judah was selected.
17 И҆ приведе́сѧ по со́нмѡмъ, и҆ ѡ҆бличи́сѧ со́нмъ зара́инъ: и҆ приведе́сѧ со́нмъ зара́инъ по мꙋжє́мъ, и҆ ѡ҆бличи́сѧ до́мъ замврі́инъ.
17 He brought near the family of Judah, and he selected the family of the Zerahites. He brought near the family of the Zerahites man by man, and Zabdi was selected.
18 И҆ приведе́сѧ до́мъ є҆гѡ̀ по мꙋжє́мъ, и҆ ѡ҆бличи́сѧ а҆ха́ръ сы́нъ хармі́инъ сы́на замврі́ина, сы́на зара́нѧ, ѿ пле́мене і҆ꙋ́дина.
18 He brought near his household man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was selected.
19 И҆ речѐ і҆исꙋ́съ а҆ха́рꙋ: сы́не мо́й, да́ждь сла́вꙋ дне́сь гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ, и҆ да́ждь є҆мꙋ̀ и҆сповѣ́данїе, и҆ и҆сповѣ́ждь мѝ, что̀ сотвори́лъ є҆сѝ, и҆ не ᲂу҆та́й ѿ менє̀.
19 Joshua said to Achan, “My son, please give glory to Yahweh, the God of Israel, and make confession to him. Tell me now what you have done! Don’t hide it from me!”
20 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ а҆ха́ръ і҆исꙋ́сꙋ и҆ речѐ: пои́стиннѣ а҆́зъ согрѣши́хъ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ і҆и҃левымъ: си́це и҆ си́це сотвори́хъ:
20 Achan answered Joshua, and said, “I have truly sinned against Yahweh, the God of Israel, and this is what I have done.
21 ви́дѣхъ въ плѣ́нѣ ри́зꙋ краснꙋ̀ и҆ добрꙋ̀ и҆ двѣ́сти дїдра́хмъ сребра̀, и҆ сосꙋ́дъ є҆ди́нъ зла́тъ, пѧтьдесѧ́тъ дїдра́хмъ вѣ́съ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ помы́сливъ на нѧ̀ взѧ́хъ: и҆ сѐ, сїѧ̑ сокровє́нна сꙋ́ть въ землѝ въ кꙋ́щи мое́й, и҆ сребро̀ сокрове́нно под̾ ни́ми.
21 When I saw among the plunder a beautiful Babylonian robe, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, then I coveted them and took them. Behold, they are hidden in the ground in the middle of my tent, with the silver under it.”
22 И҆ посла̀ і҆исꙋ́съ послы̀, и҆ и҆до́ша въ кꙋ́щꙋ въ по́лкъ: и҆ сїѧ̑ бѧ́хꙋ сокровє́нна въ кꙋ́щи є҆гѡ̀, и҆ сребро̀ под̾ ни́ми.
22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent. Behold, it was hidden in his tent, with the silver under it.
23 И҆ и҆знесо́ша ѧ҆̀ и҆з̾ кꙋ́щи, и҆ принесо́ша ко і҆исꙋ́сꙋ и҆ къ ста́рцємъ і҆и҃лєвымъ, и҆ положи́ша ѧ҆̀ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ.
23 They took them from the middle of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and to all the children of Israel. They laid them down before Yahweh.
24 И҆ взѧ̀ і҆исꙋ́съ а҆ха́ра сы́на зара́нѧ, и҆ сребро̀ и҆ ри́зꙋ и҆ сосꙋ́дъ златы́й, и҆ возведѐ є҆го̀ въ де́брь а҆хѡ́ръ, и҆ сы́ны є҆гѡ̀ и҆ дщє́ри є҆гѡ̀, и҆ тельцы̀ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ѻ҆слѧ́та є҆гѡ̀ и҆ всѧ̑ ѻ҆́вцы є҆гѡ̀, и҆ кꙋ́щꙋ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ всѧ̑ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ве́сь і҆и҃ль по не́мъ: и҆ возведѐ ѧ҆̀ (со всѣ́мъ) во є҆ме́къ а҆хѡ́ръ.
24 Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, the silver, the robe, the wedge of gold, his sons, his daughters, his cattle, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up to the valley of Achor.
25 И҆ речѐ і҆исꙋ́съ а҆ха́рꙋ: почто̀ потреби́лъ є҆сѝ на́съ; да потреби́тъ тѧ̀ гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ дне́сь. И҆ поби́ша є҆го̀ ка́менїемъ ве́сь і҆и҃ль, и҆ сожго́ша всѧ̑ ѻ҆гне́мъ, и҆ намета́ша и҆̀хъ ка́менїемъ,
25 Joshua said, “Why have you troubled us? Yahweh will trouble you today.” All Israel stoned him with stones, and they burned them with fire and stoned them with stones.
26 и҆ намета́ша на не́мъ грома́дꙋ ка́менїѧ вели́кꙋ. И҆ преста̀ гдⷭ҇ь ѿ ꙗ҆́рости гнѣ́ва своегѡ̀. Сегѡ̀ ра́ди прозва́сѧ и҆́мѧ мѣ́стꙋ томꙋ̀ є҆ме́къ а҆хѡ́ръ да́же до днѐ сегѡ̀.
26 They raised over him a great heap of stones that remains to this day. Yahweh turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore the name of that place was called “The valley of Achor” to this day.
