1 Не стыди́сѧ ѡ҆ си́хъ и҆ не прїимѝ лица̀, є҆́же согрѣша́ти:
1 Don’t be ashamed of these things, and don’t sin to save face:
2 ѡ҆ зако́нѣ вы́шнѧгѡ и҆ завѣ́тѣ, и҆ ѡ҆ сꙋдѣ̀, є҆́же ѡ҆правда́ти нечести́ваго,
2 of the law of the Most High and his covenant, of judgment to do justice to the ungodly,
3 ѡ҆ словесѝ соѻ́бщника и҆ ѡ҆ пꙋ́тницѣхъ, и҆ ѡ҆ даѧ́нїи наслѣ́дїѧ дрꙋгѡ́въ,
3 of reckoning with a partner and with travellers, of a gift from the inheritance of friends,
4 ѡ҆ и҆́стинѣ мѣ́рила и҆ вѣ́сѡвъ, ѡ҆ стѧжа́нїи мно́гихъ и҆ ма́лыхъ,
4 of exactness of scales and weights, of getting much or little,
5 ѡ҆ разли́чїи продаѧ́нїѧ кꙋпцє́въ и҆ ѡ҆ наказа́нїи мно́зѣ ча̑дъ, и҆ є҆́же рабꙋ̀ лꙋка́вꙋ ре́бра ѡ҆крова́вити.
5 of bargaining dealing with merchants, of frequent correction of children, and of making the back of an evil slave to bleed.
6 На женѣ̀ лꙋка́вѣ добро̀ (є҆́сть) печа́ть, и҆ и҆дѣ́же мнѡ́ги рꙋ́ки, затворѝ.
6 A seal is good where an evil wife is. Where there are many hands, lock things up.
7 Є҆́же а҆́ще преда́си, въ число̀ и҆ мѣ́рꙋ, да́ждь и҆ возмѝ всѐ писа́нїемъ.
7 Whatever you hand over, let it be by number and weight. In giving and receiving, let all be in writing.
8 Ѡ҆ наказа́нїи неразꙋ́мива и҆ бꙋ́ѧгѡ, и҆ престарѣ́лагѡ сꙋдѧ́щагѡсѧ съ ю҆́ными, и҆ бꙋ́деши нака́занъ и҆́стиннѡ и҆ и҆скꙋше́нъ пред̾ всѧ́кимъ живꙋ́щимъ.
8 Don’t be ashamed to instruct the unwise and foolish, and one of extreme old age who contends with those who are young. So you will be well instructed indeed and approved in the sight of every living man.
9 Дще́рь ѻ҆тцꙋ̀ сокрове́нно бдѣ́нїе, и҆ попече́нїе ѡ҆ не́й ѿгонѧ́етъ со́нъ: во ю҆́ности свое́й да не когда̀ презрѣ́етъ и҆ сожи́тельствꙋющи (съ мꙋ́жемъ), да не когда̀ возненави́дѣна бꙋ́детъ:
9 A daughter is a secret cause of wakefulness to a father. Care for her takes away sleep— in her youth, lest she pass the flower of her age; when she is married, lest she should be hated;
10 въ дѣ́вствѣ да не когда̀ ѡ҆скверни́тсѧ и҆ во ѻ҆́тчихъ є҆ѧ̀ непра́здна бꙋ́детъ, и҆ съ мꙋ́жемъ сꙋ́щи да не когда̀ престꙋ́питъ и҆ сожи́тельствꙋющи да не когда̀ непло́ды бꙋ́детъ.
10 in her virginity, lest she should be defiled and be with child in her father’s house; when she has a husband, lest she should transgress; and when she is married, lest she should be barren.
11 Над̾ дще́рїю безстꙋ́дною ᲂу҆твердѝ стра́жꙋ, да не когда̀ сотвори́тъ тѧ̀ ѡ҆бра́дованїе врагѡ́мъ, бесѣ́дꙋ во гра́дѣ и҆ ѿлꙋче́наго ѿ люді́й, и҆ посрами́тъ тѧ̀ въ наро́дѣ мно́зѣ.
11 Keep a strict watch over a headstrong daughter, lest she make you a laughingstock to your enemies, a byword in the city and notorious among the people, and shame you in public.
12 Не взира́й на добро́тꙋ всѧ́кагѡ человѣ́ка и҆ посредѣ̀ же́нъ не сѣдѝ:
12 Don’t gaze at every beautiful body. Don’t sit in the midst of women.
13 ѿ ри́зъ бо и҆схо́дитъ мо́лїе, и҆ ѿ жены̀ лꙋка́вство же́нское.
13 For from garments comes a moth, and from a woman comes a woman’s wickedness.
14 Лꙋ́чше ѕло́ба мꙋ́жеска, не́жели добродѣ́тельнаѧ жена̀, и҆ жена̀ посрамлѧ́ющаѧ въ поноше́нїе.
14 Better is the wickedness of a man than a pleasant woman, a woman who puts you to shame and disgrace.
15 Помѧнꙋ̀ ᲂу҆̀бо дѣла̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ, и҆ ꙗ҆̀же ви́дѣхъ, повѣ́мъ: во словесѣ́хъ гдⷭ҇нихъ дѣла̀ є҆гѡ̀:
15 I will make mention now of the works of the Lord, and will declare the things that I have seen. The Lord’s works are in his words.
16 со́лнце просвѣща́ѧ на всѧ̑ призрѣ̀, и҆ сла́вы є҆гѡ̀ и҆спо́лнено дѣ́ло є҆гѡ̀.
16 The sun that gives light looks at all things. The Lord’s work is full of his glory.
17 Не сотвори́ ли ст҃ы̑мъ гдⷭ҇ь повѣ́дати всѧ̑ чꙋдеса̀ є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆̀же ᲂу҆твердѝ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель, ᲂу҆тверди́тисѧ всемꙋ̀ во сла́вѣ є҆гѡ̀;
17 The Lord has not given power to the saints to declare all his marvelous works, which the Almighty Lord firmly settled, that the universe might be established in his glory.
18 Бе́зднꙋ и҆ се́рдце и҆зслѣ́дова и҆ въ кова́рствѣхъ и҆́хъ размы́сли: разꙋмѣ́ бо гдⷭ҇ь всѧ́ко вѣ́дѣнїе и҆ призрѣ̀ на зна́менїе вѣ́ка,
18 He searches out the deep and the heart. He has understanding of their secrets. For the Most High knows all knowledge. He sees the signs of the world.
19 возвѣща́ѧ мимошє́дшаѧ и҆ бꙋ̑дꙋщаѧ и҆ ѿкрыва́ѧ слѣды̀ та́йныхъ:
19 He declares the things that are past and the things that shall be, and reveals the traces of hidden things.
20 не пре́йде є҆гѡ̀ всѧ́ко помышле́нїе, не ᲂу҆таи́сѧ ѿ негѡ̀ ни є҆ди́но сло́во.
20 No thought escapes him. There is not a word hidden from him.
21 Вели̑чїѧ премꙋ́дрости своеѧ̀ ᲂу҆красѝ: и҆́же є҆́сть пре́жде вѣ́ка и҆ во вѣ́къ,
21 He has ordered the mighty works of his wisdom. He is from everlasting to everlasting. Nothing has been added to them, nor diminished from them. He had no need of any counselor.
22 ни приложи́сѧ, ни ᲂу҆ма́лисѧ и҆ не востре́бова ни є҆ди́нагѡ совѣ́тника.
22 How desirable are all his works! One may see this even in a spark.
23 Ко́ль всѧ̑ дѣла̀ є҆гѡ̀ вожделѣ̑нна, и҆ да́же до и҆́скры є҆́сть ви́дѣти.
23 All these things live and remain forever in all manner of uses. They are all obedient.
24 Всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ живꙋ́тъ и҆ пребыва́ютъ во вѣ́къ во всѣ́хъ тре́бованїихъ, и҆ всѧ̑ послꙋ́шаютъ.
24 All things are in pairs, one opposite the other. He has made nothing imperfect.
25 Всѧ̑ сꙋгꙋ̑ба, є҆ди́но проти́вꙋ є҆ди́нагѡ: и҆ не сотворѝ ничто́же скꙋ́дно.
25 One thing establishes the good things of another. Who could ever see enough of his glory?
26 Є҆ди́но ѿ є҆ди́нагѡ ᲂу҆твердѝ блага̑ѧ: и҆ кто̀ насы́титсѧ, зрѧ̀ сла́вꙋ є҆гѡ̀;
