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 Взы́де вдыха́ѧй въ лицѐ твоѐ, ѿе́млѧй ѿ ѡ҆скорбле́нїѧ: ᲂу҆смотрѝ пꙋ́ть, ᲂу҆крѣпѝ чрє́сла, возмꙋжа́й крѣ́постїю ѕѣлѡ̀:
1 He who dashes in pieces has come up against you. Keep the fortress! Watch the way! Strengthen your waist! Fortify your power mightily!
2 поне́же ѿвратѝ гдⷭ҇ь ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ і҆а́кѡвлю, ꙗ҆́коже ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ: занѐ ѡ҆трѧса́ющїи ѡ҆трѧсо́ша ѧ҆̀ и҆ ло́зы и҆́хъ растли́ша.
2 For Yahweh restores the excellency of Jacob as the excellency of Israel, for the destroyers have destroyed them and ruined their vine branches.
3 Ѻ҆рꙋ̑жїѧ си́лы и҆́хъ ѿ человѣ̑къ, мꙋ́жы си̑льныѧ и҆гра́ющыѧ во ѻ҆гнѝ: брѡзды̀ колесни́цъ и҆́хъ въ де́нь ᲂу҆гото́ванїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ кѡ́нницы возмѧтꙋ́тсѧ на пꙋте́хъ,
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red. The valiant men are in scarlet. The chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the pine spears are brandished.
4 и҆ смѧтꙋ́тсѧ колєсни́цы и҆ сплетꙋ́тсѧ на сто́гнахъ: ви́дъ и҆́хъ ꙗ҆́кѡ свѣщы̀ ѻ҆́гнєнны, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ мо́лнїѧ протека́ющаѧ.
4 The chariots rage in the streets. They rush back and forth in the wide ways. Their appearance is like torches. They run like the lightnings.
5 И҆ помѧнꙋ́тсѧ старѣ̑йшины и҆́хъ, и҆ побѣ́гнꙋтъ въ де́нь, и҆ и҆знемо́гꙋтъ въ пꙋтѝ свое́мъ, и҆ потща́тсѧ на забра̑ла є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ᲂу҆гото́вѧтъ прє́днїѧ стражбы̑ своѧ̑.
5 He summons his picked troops. They stumble on their way. They dash to its wall, and the protective shield is put in place.
6 Врата̀ гра̑днаѧ ѿверзо́шасѧ, и҆ ца̑рства падо́ша, и҆ и҆мѣ́нїе ѿкры́сѧ.
6 The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.
7 Сїѧ́ же восхожда́ше, и҆ рабы̑ни є҆ѧ̀ ведѧ́хꙋсѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ голꙋби̑цы воркꙋ́ющѧ въ сердца́хъ свои́хъ:
7 It is decreed: she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her servants moan as with the voice of doves, beating on their breasts.
8 и҆ нїнеѵі́а, а҆́ки кꙋпѣ́ль водна́ѧ во́ды є҆ѧ̀, и҆ ті́и бѣжа́ще не ста́ша, и҆ не бѣ̀ взира́ющагѡ.
8 But Nineveh has been from of old like a pool of water, yet they flee away. “Stop! Stop!” they cry, but no one looks back.
9 Расхища́хꙋ сребро̀, расхища́хꙋ зла́то, и҆ не бѧ́ше конца̀ и҆мѣ́нїѧ є҆ѧ̀: ѡ҆тѧготи́шасѧ па́че всѣ́хъ сосꙋ́дѡвъ вожделѣ̑ннаѧ є҆ѧ̀.
9 Take the plunder of silver. Take the plunder of gold, for there is no end of treasure, an abundance of every precious thing.
10 И҆стрѧсе́нїе и҆ вострѧсе́нїе, и҆ воскипѣ́нїе и҆ се́рдца сокрꙋше́нїе, и҆ разслабле́нїе колѣ́нъ и҆ бѡлѣ́зни по всѣ̑мъ чре́слѡмъ, и҆ лицѐ всѣ́хъ, а҆́ки ѡ҆пале́нїе котла̀.
10 She is empty, void, and waste. The heart melts, the knees knock together, their bodies and faces have grown pale.
11 Гдѣ̀ є҆́сть вита́лище львѡ́въ и҆ па́жить сꙋ́щаѧ льви́чищємъ; ка́мѡ и҆́де ле́въ, є҆́же влѣ́зти та́мѡ льви́чищꙋ, и҆ не бѧ́ше ᲂу҆страша́ющагѡ.
11 Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked with the lion’s cubs, and no one made them afraid?
12 Ле́въ восхи́ти довѡ́льнаѧ льви́чищємъ свои̑мъ и҆ ᲂу҆давѝ льви́цамъ свои̑мъ, и҆ напо́лни лови́твы гнѣздо̀ своѐ и҆ вита́лище своѐ похище́нїѧ.
12 The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, and strangled prey for his lionesses, and filled his caves with the kill and his dens with prey.
13 Сѐ, а҆́зъ на тѧ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель, и҆ пожгꙋ̀ ды́момъ мно́жество твоѐ, и҆ львы̀ твоѧ̑ поѧ́стъ ѻ҆рꙋ́жїе: и҆ потреблю̀ ѿ землѝ лови́твꙋ твою̀, и҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шатсѧ ктомꙋ̀ дѣла̀ твоѧ̑.
13 “Behold, I am against you,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions; and I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will no longer be heard.”
