Озна'менихъ же прїидетъ вре'мя, и^же живђщїи на земли` ѓ^бремене'ни да'ньми ве'лїими, и^ съкры'ется пђть пра'вды, и^ бђдетъ црsтво непло'дно эT вњры”
|
Nevertheless as concerning the tokens, behold, the days shall come, that they that dwell upon earth shall be taken with great amazement, and the way of truth shall be hidden, and the land shall be barren of faith.
|
|

|
2
|
|
И$ ё^множится непра'вда бо'леи нежели нн~њ ви'диши, и^ нежели е^си слы'шалъ,
|
But iniquity shall be increased above that which now thou seest, or that thou hast heard long ago.
|
|

|

|
|
земля` в ню'же вни'деши, і^ ю'же ви'диши и^же нн~њ црsтвђ'етъ, ё^зряT е^я` ѓ^пђстњнђ, и^
|
And the land, that thou seest now to have rule, shall be waste and untrodden, and men shall see it desolate.
|
|

|

|
|
да'сть л^и тебњ вы'шнїи жи'вђ бы'ти. ё%зриши потре'теи трђбњ и^же въско'рњ сл~нце възсїя'етъ в нощи, и^ лђна три'щи на днь.
|
But if the Most High grant thee to live, thou shalt see that which is after the third kingdom to be troubled; and the sun shall suddenly shine forth in the night, and the moon in the day:
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
и^ ка'паетъ кро'вь эT дре'ва, и^ ка'мень дасть гла'съ свои. и^ възъшата'ются лю'дїе,
|
and blood shall drop out of wood, and the stone shall give its voice, and the peoples shall be troubled; and their goings shall be changed:
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
и^ то'и бђдетъ црsтвова'ти е^гоже ся ненадњ'ютъ живђщїи на земли`. и^ пти'цы пре'идTђ эT мњста свое^го.
|
and he shall rule, whom they that dwell upon the earth look not for, and the fowls shall take their flight away together:
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
и^ мо'ре содоMское ры'бы эTме'щетъ, и^ да'сть гла'съ нощъ и^же мно'зїи не зна'ша, и^ вс^и ё^слы'шаT гласъ е^го,
|
and the Sodomitish sea shall cast out fish, and make a noise in the night, which many have not known: but all shall hear the voice thereof.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
и^ трђси бђдTђ по мњстехъ мно'ѕњхъ. и^ ѓ'гнь беZпрестани ѓ^пђстится. и^ ѕвњрїе польстїи преселя'тся, и^ же'ны болњзнивыя родятъ ди'вная.
|
There shall be chaos also in many places, and the fire shall be often sent out, and the wild beasts shall change their places, and women shall bring forth monsters:
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
и^ въ сла'дкихъ вода'хъ сла'ны ѓ^бря'щђтся, и^ прїатели всњхъ сами собою ѓ^полчаюTся. и^ съкрыся тогда ё%м# и^ ра'зђмъ разлђчится в# храни'лищи свое^мъ,
|
and salt waters shall be found in the sweet, and all friends shall destroy one another; then shall wit hide itself, and understanding withdraw itself into its chamber;
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
і^ и^зы'щется эT многихъ и^ не ѓ^бря'щется” Непра'вда же и^ невъздержанїе ё^мно'жится на зеMли`.
|
and it shall be sought of many, and shall not be found: and unrighteousness and incontinency shall be multiplied upon earth.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
и^ вопроситъ странђ ближнїю свою, и^ речетъ, ни ли потебњ преидетъ правда правость творящи. и^ т^о эTмещђтся,
|
One land also shall ask another, and say, Is righteousness, is a man that doeth righteousness, gone through thee? And it shall say, No.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
и^ бђдетъ в то` время ё^поваю^тъ чл~ци и^ не воспрїимђтъ трђдяTся и^ не ё^правля'ютъ пђти и^хъ.
|
And it shall come to pass at that time that men shall hope, but shall not obtain: they shall labor, but their ways shall not prosper.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
сїя зна'менїя повелњно гл~ати тебњ, эTпђщено е^сть мнњ, и^ а'ще помоли'шися па'ки и^ въспла'чешися ја%ко и^ нн~њ. и^ пости'шися седмь дн~їи е^ще бо'леи ё^слы'шиши
|
To show thee such tokens I have leave; and if thou wilt pray again, and weep as now, and fast seven days, thou shalt hear yet greater things than these.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
и^ возбнvђ и^ тњло мое` ё^страшиs ѕњло, и^ дш~а моя ё^трђди'ся ја%ко и^щезе`.
|
Then I awoke, and an extreme trembling went through my body, and my mind was troubled, so that it fainted.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
держа` м^я и^же прїиде а^гг~лъ и^же гл~аше в# м^я и^ ё^крњпи` м^я, и^ поста'ви м^я на нога'хъ.
|
So the angel that was come to talk with me held me, comforted me, and set me up upon my feet.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
и^ бы'сть в но'щь в#торђ'ю и^ прїиде къ мн^њ салаџїель во'жъ лю'демъ, и^ рече мн^њ гдњ` бя'ше. и^ въскђю лице твое ско'рбно.
|
And in the second night it came to pass, that Phaltiel the captain of the people came unto me, saying, Where hast thou been? and why is thy countenance sad?
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
и^л^и не вњси ја%котебњ въвњре'нъ е^сть і^и^л~ь въ странњ` преселе'нїя иX.
|
or knowest thou not that Israel is committed unto thee in the land of their captivity?
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
въста'ни б^о и^ вкђси` хлњба. и^ не ѓ^пђсти` насъ ја%ко па'стыръ ста'до свое в рђки влъкомъ лђка'вымъ.
|
Up then, and eat some bread, and forsake us not, as the shepherd that leaveth in the hands of cruel wolves.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
и^ реко'хъ е^мђ, и^ди эT мене`. и^ не приближишиs ко мнњ и^ ё^слы'шалъ ја^ко реко'хъ. и^ эTи'де эT мене`,
|
Then said I unto him, Go thy ways from me, and come not nigh me for seven days, and then shalt thou come unto me. And he heard what I said, and went from me.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
а^ а'зъ пости'хся дн~їи сеDмь стеня'щи и^ пла'чющи. ја%ко мн^њ заповњда ё^рїель а^гг~лъ.
|
And so I fasted seven days, mourning and weeping, like as Uriel the angel commanded me.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
и^ бы'сть по дн~и седмихъ. и^ па'ки помышле'нїе срDца мое^готрђдно бя'ше мн^њ ѕњло
|
And after seven days, so it was, that the thoughts of my heart were very grievous unto me again,
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
и^ въспрїя` дш~а моя дх~ъ ра'зђменъ и^ па'ки нача` гл~ати преD вы'шнимъ словеса`,
|
and my soul recovered the spirit of understanding, and I began to speak words before the Most High again,
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
и^ рњхъ. ЭO влDко г~и эT всXњ дђбра'въ зем#скихъ и^ эT всњхъ дре'въ е^го и^збра'лъ е^си виногра'дъ е^ді'ныи.
|
and said, O Lord that bearest rule, of all the woods of the earth, and of all the trees thereof, thou hast chosen thee one vine:
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
эT всњхъ зе'мль вселе'нныя и^збра'лъ е^си себњ ё^до'лїе е^ді'но. и^ эT всњхъ цвњтъ селныхъ и^збра'лъ е^си себњ кри'нъ е^ді'нъ.
|
and of all the lands of the world thou hast chosen thee one country: and of all the flowers of the world thou hast chosen thee one lily:
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
и^ эT всњхъ бе'зд#нъ мо'рьскиX и^сполнилъ е^си себњ и^сто'чниk е^дїнъ. и^ эT всњхъ созида'нїи гра'доv ѓ^ст~илъ е^си себњ сїѓ'нъ,
|
and of all the depths of the sea thou hast filled thee one river: and of all built cities thou hast hallowed Zion unto thyself:
|
|
26
|
26
|
|
и^ эT всњхъ сътворе'нїи летя'щихъ и^меновалъ е^си себњ голђби'цђ е^ді'нђ, и^ эT всњх# сътворе'нїи скота` прови'дњлъ е^си себњ ѓ^вцђ` е^ді'нђ,
|
and of all the fowls that are created thou hast named thee one dove: and of all the cattle that are made thou hast provided thee one sheep:
|
|
27
|
27
|
|
и^ эT всњхъ ё^мно'женыхъ лю'дїи и^зыска'лъ е^си себњ лю'ди е^ді'ны. и^ эT всњхъ и^скђше'нъ зако'нъ, да'лъ е^си семђ е^гоже желlњ е^си людїи”
|
and among all the multitudes of peoples thou hast gotten thee one people: and unto this people, whom thou lovedst, thou gavest a law that is approved of all.
|
|
28
|
28
|
|
И$ нн~њ г~и въскђю преда'лъ е^си е^ді'нъ мно'гимъ. и^ ё^гото'валъ е^си на е^ді'нъ ко'рень мно'ги и%ныи`, и^ расточи'лъ е^си е^ді'нъ твои въ мно'зњхъ
|
And now, O Lord, why hast thou given this one people over unto many, and hast dishonored the one root above others, and hast scattered thine only one among many?
|
|
29
|
29
|
|
и^ потопта'ша е^го, и^же проти'вђ гл~ющаго во'ли твое'и. е^ще твои^хъ завњтъ не вњровахђ.
|
And they that did gainsay thy promises have trodden them down that believed thy covenants.
|
|
30
|
30
|
|
и^ а'ще ненавидя'ще ненави'дњлъ е^си лю'ди твоя`. твои^ми рђка'ми и%маши наказа'ти”
|
If thou dost so much hate thy people, they should be punished with thine own hands.
|
|
31
|
31
|
|
И$ бы'сть е^гда` гл~алъ е^смь словеса`, и посла'нъ е^сть а^гг~лъ и^же пре'жде прїиде къ мн^њ въ проходя'щђю но'щь.
|
Now when I had spoken these words, the angel that came to me the night afore was sent unto me,
|
|
32
|
32
|
|
и^ рече м^и ё^слы'ши м^я и^ наё^чю т^я. и^ воnми ми` и^ преDложђ` преD тобо'ю,
|
and said unto me, Hear me, and I will instruct thee; hearken unto me, and I shall tell thee more.
|
|
33
|
33
|
|
и^ реко'хъ. гл~и г~и мои. и^ рече къ мн^њ, ѕњло въ ё^жасњ ё^ма` сътворе'нъ е^си ради і^и^л~я. и^л^и наи'паче възлюби'лъ е^си е^го, неже сътвори
|
And I said, Speak on, my Lord. Then said he unto me, Thou art sore troubled in mind for Israel’s sake: lovest thou that people better than he that made them?
|
|
34
|
34
|
|
и&. и^ рњхъ к не'мђ ни` г~и, н^о боля'щи гл~алъ е^смь. мђ'чатъ б^о ся ля'двїя моя по вся` ча'сы и%щђщи взя'ти стезю` вы'шняго. и^ взыска'ти ча'сть сђ'да е^го.
|
And I said, No, Lord: but of very grief have I spoken: for my heart tormenteth me every hour, while I labor to comprehend the way of the Most High, and to seek out part of his judgment.
|
|
35
|
35
|
|
и^ рече къ мн^њ, не мо'жеши. и^ реко'х#, почто` г~и, и^ почто` родиXся и^л^и въскђ'ю не сътвори'ся ё^тро'ба мт~ри моея мн^њ гро'бъ, да не ви'дXњ трђда і^а'ковля и^ безъси'лїя ра'ди і^и^л~ева.
|
And he said unto me, Thou canst not. And I said, Wherefore, Lord, or whereunto was I born? or why was not my mother’s womb then my grave, that I might not have seen the travail of Jacob, and the wearisome toil of the stock of Israel?
|
|
36
|
36
|
|
и^ рече къ мн^њ. сочти` м^и сїе и^же е^гда` не прїидо'ша. и^ собери` м^и раскро'пленыя ка'пли, и^ ѓ^зелени` м^и сђхїя цвњты,
|
And he said unto me, Number me them that are not yet come, gather me together the drops that are scattered abroad, make me the flowers green again that are withered,
|
|
37
|
37
|
|
и^ эTврьзи` м^и запертыя храни'лища, і^ и^зведи` м^и затворе'ны в ни'хъ вњтры, покажи` м^и гла'сђ ѓ%бразъ, и^ тогда покажђ` т^и трђдъ и^же жеда'еши ви'дњти
|
open me the chambers that are closed, and bring me forth the winds that in them are shut up, or show me the image of a voice: and then I will declare to thee the travail that thou askest to see.
|
|
38
|
38
|
|
и^ рњхъ, ЭO влDко г~и, кто' бо е^сть и^же можетъ сїя ви'дњти. то'кмо и^же съ чл~ки ѓ^бита'нїя не и%мать”
|
And I said, O Lord that bearest rule, who may know these things, but he that hath not his dwelling with men?
|
|
39
|
39
|
|
А/з же безђменъ и^ ка'ко могђ гл~ати ѓ^ си'хъ и^же мене` въспро'сиши.
|
As for me, I am unwise: how may I then speak of these things whereof thou askest me?
|
|
40
|
40
|
|
и^ рече къ мнњ` ка'ко не мо'жеши сътвори'ти е^ді'нъ эT си'хъ и^же гл~ана сђть та'ко не мо'жеши ѓ^брњсти сђдъ мо'и. и^ли` въ ко'нецъ любо'въ ю%же лю'демъ ѓ^бњщахъ”
|
Then said he unto me, Like as thou canst do none of these things that I have spoken of, even so canst thou not find out my judgment, or the end of the love that I have promised unto my people.
|
|
41
|
41
|
|
И$ рњхъ чт^о сътворяT и^же предо мно'ю бы'ша. і^ и'же с на'ми і^ и^же по на'съ.
|
And I said, But, lo, O Lord, thou hast made the promise unto them that be in the end: and what shall they do that have been before us, or we that are now, or they that shall come after us?
|
|
42
|
42
|
|
и^ гл~а къ мнњ`, вњнцђ подобенъ сђдъ мо'и. ја%ко не послDњни'мъ по'здная, та'ко не пр'ьвыM ско'рая”
|
And he said unto me, I will liken my judgment unto a ring: like as there is no slackness of them that are last, even so there is no swiftness of them that are first.
|
|
43
|
43
|
|
И$ эTвњщахъ и^ реко'хъ. не могаше сътвори'ти и^же сътворени сђть і^ и^же сђть і^ и^же приходя'ще сђть въ е^ді'но да бы'стрње сђдъ тво'и пока'жеши”
|
So I answered and said, Couldest thou not make them to be at once that have been made, and that be now, and that are to come; that thou mightest show thy judgment the sooner?
|
|
44
|
44
|
|
И$ эTвњща къ мнњ` и^ рече. не мо'жетъ тща'ти творе'нїе на тво'рца, и^ н^и снести` вњка и^хъ и^же в немъ сътво'рени сђть въ е^ді'но
|
Then answered he me, and said, The creature may not hasten above the creator; neither may the world hold them at once that shall be created therein.
|
|
45
|
45
|
|
и^ рњхъ” Ка'ко гл~еши рабђ` твое^мђ. ја%ко ѓ^живляю^щи ѓ^живи'лъ е^си, эT тебе` сътво'рена творе'нїя въ е^ді'но. и^же б^о снесло сътворе'нїе. мо'жетъ и^ нн~њ носи'ти настоя'щее въ е^ді'но”
|
And I said, How hast thou said unto thy servant, that thou wilt surely make alive at once the creature that thou hast created? If therefore they shall be alive at once, and the creature shall sustain them: even so it might now also support them to be present at once.
|
|
46
|
46
|
|
И$ реq къ мнњ` въпроси` живота женьска. и^ гл~еши к не'и. и^ а'ще ро'диши, въскђю по времени, моли б^о ея` да ро'дитъ десяT въ е^ді'но.
|
And he said unto me, Ask the womb of a woman, and say unto her, If thou bringest forth ten children, why doest thou it at several times? pray her therefore to bring forth ten children at once.
|
|
47
|
47
|
|
и^ реко'хъ не бо мо'жетъ, н^о по времени”
|
And I said, she cannot: but must do it by distance of time.
|
|
48
|
48
|
|
И$ рече къ мнњ`. и^ аZ дахъ матриси земъстњи и^ си'мъ и^же просњя'ни сђть на не'и по времени
|
Then said he unto me, Even so have I given the womb of the earth to those that be sown therein in their several times.
|
|
49
|
49
|
|
и%мже б^о ѓ%бразомъ мла'денецъ не ро'дитъ т^а и^же ста'ра сђть” Та'ко а%зъ раз#смотриX эT себе` сътвореныи вњкъ.
|
For like as a young child may not bring forth, neither she that is grown old bring forth anymore, even so have I disposed the world which I created.
|
|
50
|
50
|
|
и^ па'ки въспроси'хъ. и^ рекохъ е^гда` ё^же` да'еши м^и пђть гл~ю преD тобо'ю. и%мже мт~и на'ша ѓ^ не'иже гл~алъ е^си мн^њ, е^ще` млада е^сть ё^же` ста'рости приближа'ется.
|
And I asked, and said, Seeing thou hast now shown me the way, I will speak before thee: Is our mother, of whom thou hast told me, still young? or doth she now draw nigh unto age?
|
|
51
|
51
|
|
и^ эTвњща къ мнњ` и^ реq. въспроси` ея` и^же ро'диT” И$ речетъ тебњ`.
|
He answered me, and said, Ask a woman that beareth children, and she shall tell thee.
|
|
52
|
52
|
|
гл~еши б^о е'и. въскђю коиX роди'ла е^си нн~њ. нњ сђть подо'бни тњмъ и^же преD тобо'ю. н^о мен#ши во'зрастом#.
|
Say unto her, wherefore are not they whom thou hast now brought forth like those that were before, but less of stature?
|
|
53
|
53
|
|
и^ речетъ тебњ т^а и^нїи сђть и^же въ ю'ности силы рожDени сђть. і^ и^нїи же по времени ста'рости ѓ^скђдњ'ющи матриси роди'шася
|
And she also shall answer thee, They that are born in the strength of youth are of one fashion, and they that are born in the time of age, when the womb faileth, are otherwise.
|
|
54
|
54
|
|
разђмњи б^о и^ т^ы ја%ко ме'нши во'зрастомъ е^сте` эT тњхъ и^же преже ваs
|
Consider therefore thou also, how that ye are less of stature than those that were before you.
|
|
55
|
55
|
|
і^ и^же по ва'съ мен#ши неже в^ы, ја%ко ё^же` състарњю'щее сътворенїе и^ крњпости` ю%ноши преминђющи”
|
And so are they that come after you less than ye, as born of the creature which now beginneth to be old, and is past the strength of youth.
|
|
56
|
56
|
|
И$ рекоX молю г~и а%ще ѓ^бря'щђ блгDть преD ѓ^чима твои'ма. покажи рабђ` твое^мђ и%мже посњтиши сътворе'нїе свое`”
|
Then said I, Lord, I beseech thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show thy servant by whom thou visitest thy creature.
|
