В начат#ке црsтва і^ѓ^а^ки'ма сн~а і^ѓ^сїина цр~я і^ё'дина Бы'сть сло'во сїе къ і^еремїи эT г~а гл~я”

¹

The Word of the Lord which He spoke against Babylon.

²

Та'ко рече г~ь, сᲆтвори` себњ ё'зы и^ кла'ды и^ възложи` на вы'ю свою,

²

Proclaim ye among the Gentiles, and cause the tidings to be heard, and suppress them not: say ye, Babylon is taken, Belus is confounded; the fearless, the luxurious Mærodach is delivered up.

³

и^ да послеши я& къ цр~ю и^дђме'искђ, и^ къ цр~ю моа'в#скомђ, и^ къ цр~ю сн~овъ а^м#мо'нь. и^ къ цр~ю тљ=рьскђ, и^ къ цр~ю сидо'ньскђ, в рђкђ посло'мъ и^хъ, и^дђщиM въ і^ерsлимъ въ срњте'нїе е^мђ къ седекїи цр~ю і^ё'динђ.

³

For a nation has come up against her from the north, he shall utterly ravage her land, and there shall be none to dwell in it, neither man nor beast.

⁴

и^ съчини и^мъ къ господемъ и^хъ рещи” Та'ко рече г~ь б~ъ і^и^л~евъ, тако р#ците кᲆ господеM свои^мъ.

⁴

In those days, and at that time, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Juda together; they shall proceed, weeping as they go, seeking the Lord their God.

⁵

а%ꙁъ сътвори'хъ ꙁе'млю и^ чл~ка, и^ скотъ е^же на лицы земли`, крњпостїю своею вели'кою, и^ мы'шцею своею высо'кою. и^ дамъ ю& е^мђже бђдетъ м^и лю'бо преD ѓ^чи'ма мои'ма. тњмже

⁵

They shall ask the way till they come to Sion, for that way shall they set their face; and they shall come and flee for refuge to the Lord their God; for the everlasting covenant shall not be forgotten.

⁶

и^ нн~њ а^ꙁъ да'хъ всю` ꙁемлю сїю в рђ'цњ навходоносо'рђ цр~ю вављ=лоnскђ, да е^мђ рабо'таютъ. ктомђ` и^ звњрь пол#скїи да'хъ дњлати е^мђ.

⁶

My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds thrust them out, they caused them to wander on the mountains: they went from mountain to hill, they forgot their resting-place.

⁷

и^ послђжатъ е^мђ вси` ја^зы'цы, и^ сн~ђ е^го, и^ сн~ђ сн~а е^го. до'ндеже не пришелъ часъ ꙁемли` е^го и^ е^го самого O. и^ послђжатъ е^мђ мно'ѕи народи и^ цр~и вели'цы.

⁷

All that found them consumed them: their enemies said, Let us not leave them alone, because they have sinned against the Lord: he that gathered their fathers had a pasture of righteousness.

⁸

страна же и^ црsтво и^же а^ще не в#дежђтъ вы'я своея въ яреM цр~я вављло'ньска, мечемᲆ и^ гла'домᲆ посњщђ и^хъ, рече г~ь. дондеже скон#ча'ются в рђцњ` е^го”

⁸

Flee ye out of the midst of Babylon, and from the land of the Chaldeans, and go forth, and be as serpents before sleep.

⁹

Вы' же не послђшаите прoркъ свои^хъ, и^ влъхвђю^щихъ вамъ, и^ видящихъ сонїя ва'мъ. ни чарова'нїи вашихъ, ни врачевъ ва'шихъ гл~ющихъ вамъ. не послђжите цр~ю вављ=лонскђ,

⁹

For, behold, I stir up against Babylon the gatherings of nations out of the land of the north; and they shall set themselves in array against her: thence shall she be taken, as the dart of an expert warrior shall not return empty.

¹⁰

ја^ко лжђ прорица'ютъ тїи вамᲆ. ја%коже ё^дали'тися вамъ эT земля вашея и^звер#гли васъ е^же поги'бнђти ваM”

¹⁰

And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied.

¹¹

страна же ја%же въклонитъ вы'ю свою въ ја^ремъ цр~я вављ=лон#ска, и^ послђжитъ е^мђ. ѓ^ста'влю ю& на ꙁемли` е^го, гл~етъ г~ь. и^ ѓ^ра'ти бђдетъ ю& и^ всели'тся на неи.

¹¹

Because ye rejoiced, and boasted, while plundering mine heritage; because ye exulted as calves in the grass, and pushed with the horn as bulls.

¹²

и^ къ седекїи цр~ю і^ё'динђ гл~ахъ по всњмъ словесе'мъ си'мъ гл~я. въклони'те вы'я ва'ша поD и'го цр~я вављ=лоньска, и^ слђжи'те е^мђ и^ людемъ е^го, и^ жи'ви бђдете.

¹²

Your mother is greatly ashamed; your mother that bore you for prosperity is confounded: she is the last of the nations, desolate,

¹³

почто ё^мира'ете, т^ы и^ лю'дїе твои` мечемъ, и^ гладомъ, и^ мо'ромъ. ја%коже рече г~ь кᲆ страна'мъ, не хотя'щимъ слђжи'ти цр~ю вављ=ло'н#скђ.

¹³

by reason of the Lord's anger: it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be all a desolation; and every one that passes through Babylon shall scowl, and they shall hiss at all her plague.

¹⁴

не послђшаите словъ пррoковъ гл~щиX вамъ, не послђжи'те цр~ю вављ=лонъскђ,

¹⁴

Set yourselves in array against Babylon round about, all ye that bend the bow; shoot at her, spare not your arrows,

¹⁵

ја%ко непра'ведно тїи прори'чюT вамъ” ја^ко не посла'хъ и^хъ рече г~ь. тїи же прорица'ютъ и'мя мое ѓ^ непра'вдњ, ја%коже погђбити в^ы. и^ поги'бнете в^ы, и^ прoрцы ваши прорица'ю^щеи вамъ ѓ^ неправдњ л#жею.

¹⁵

and prevail against her: her hands are weakened, her bulwarks are fallen, and her wall is broken down: for it is vengeance from God: take vengeance upon her; as she has done, do to her.

¹⁶

ва'мъ и^ всњмъ лю'демъ симъ, и^ жръцемъ гл~ахъ рекїи. та'ко рече г~ь, не послђшаите словесъ пррoческъ, прорица'ю^щихъ ва'мъ, и^ гл~ющихъ. се` сосђди до'мђ гн~я ѓ^браща'ются эT вављ=лона па'ки нн~њ въско'рњ. ја%ко лоQ пророкђ'ютъ вамъ, сего ради

¹⁶

Utterly destroy seed out of Babylon, and him that holds a sickle in time of harvest: for fear of the Grecian sword, they shall return every one to his people, and every one shall flee to his own land.

¹⁷

не послђшаите и^хъ. н^о слђжи'те цр~ю вављ=лонъскђ да жи'ви бђдете. въскђю поDдава'ете мњсто сїе въ пђсᲄы'ню.

¹⁷

Israel is a wandering sheep; the lions have driven him out: the king of Assyria first devoured him, and afterward this king of Babylon has gnawed his bones.

¹⁸

а^ще сђть прoрцы, и^ е'сть сло'во гн~е в нихъ, да преста'нђтъ г~ђ вс^едръжи'телю, да не прїидђтъ сосђди ѓ^ста'вшаяся в домђ гн~и, и^ в домђ` цр~я і^ё'дина, и^ въ і^ерsлимњ, до вављ=ло'на”

¹⁸

Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will take vengeance on the king of Babylon, and upon his land, as I took vengeance on the king of Assyria.

¹⁹

Та'ко б^о гл~етъ г~ь вседръжитель къ столпомъ и^ ко ё^мыва'лницы и^ къ поDставкомъ, и^ къ про'чимъ сосђдомъ ѓ^ста'вшиMся в# мњсте сеM,

¹⁹

And I will restore Israel to his pasture, and he shall feed on Carmel and on mount Ephraim and in Galaad, and his soul shall be satisfied.

²⁰

и^хже не вꙁя` навходоносо'ръ цр~ь вављ=лонъскїи. е^гда пресели` і^ехонїю сн~а і^ѓ^а^кљ=мова цр~я і^ё'дина и^ꙁъ і^ерsлі'мA въ вављ=лонъ, и^ вси` старњ'ишины і^ё'дины і^ и^ерsлимля”

²⁰

In those days, and at that time, they shall seek for the iniquity of Israel, and there shall be none; and for the sins of Juda, and they shall not be found: for I will be merciful to them that are left

²¹

Та'ко б^о гл~етъ г~ь вседръжитель б~ъ і^ил~ев#, къ сосђдоM ѓ^ста'вшиMся в# домђ` гн~и, и^ въ домђ` і^ё'динњ и^ въ і^ерsлњмњ.

²¹

on the land, saith the Lord. Go up against it roughly, and against them that dwell on it: avenge, O sword, and destroy utterly, saith the Lord, and do according to all that I command thee.

²²

въ вављ=лонъ пренесђтся, и^ та'мо бђдђтъ да'же до дн~е посњще'нїя свое^го гл~етъ г~ь. и^ повелю` принести` я&, и^ въз#врати'ти въ градъ се'и.

²²

A sound of war, and great destruction in the land of the Chaldeans!
