¹

И бы'сть сло'во гн~е къ і^еремїи второе, то'и же бя'ше е^ще` свя'ꙁанъ въ ро'вᲇ темничнеM гл~я”

¹

In the beginning of the Reign of King Joakim Son of Josias there came this Word from the Lord.

²

Та'ко рече г~ь, творя'и зе'млю, и^ простира'я ю& јако и^спра'вити ю&, г~ь и^мя е^мђ”

²

Thus said the Lord; Stand in the court of the Lord's house, and thou shalt declare to all the Jews, and to all that come to worship in the house of the Lord, all the words which I commanded thee to speak to them; abate not one word.

³

възопїи къ мнњ` и^ эTвњща'ю ти, и^ совњстђю тебњ вели'ко и^ крњп#ко, е^гоже нњси раꙁђмњлъ.

³

Peradventure they will hear, and turn every one from his evil way: then I will cease from the evils which I purpose to do to them, because of their evil practices.

⁴

ја%ко та'ко рече г~ь б~ъ і^и^л~евъ ѓ^ домохъ гра'да сего, и^ ѓ^ хра'мњхъ цр~я і^ё'дина, растерзаныхъ на ѓ^стро'гᲆ и^ на ꙁабра'ла.

⁴

And thou shalt say, Thus said the Lord; If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my statutes which I set before you,

⁵

ја^коy проти'витися къ халдњ'емъ, и^ наполни'ти и& мр~твъ чл~къ, ја%же побиX въ гнњ'вњ мое^м#, и^ въ ја%рости мое'и. и^ эTвратиX лице свое эT ниX, ѓ^ всXњ ѕлобаX и^хъ”

⁵

to hearken to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send to you early in the morning; yea, I sent them, but ye hearkened not to me;

⁶

Се а%зъ наведђ на ня срастенїе, і^ и^сцњленїеM иZврачюю я&. и^ ја^влю и^мъ послђшати і^ и^зврачю'ю я&, и^ сътворю и^мъ ми'ръ и^ вњрђ.

⁶

then will I make this house as Selo, and I will make this city a curse to all the nations of all the earth.

⁷

и^ ѓ^бращђ и^с#селе'нїе і^ё'дино, і^ и^с#селенїе і^ерsли'мле, и^ съгражDђ я& ја%ко и^ прежDе.

⁷

And the priests, and the false prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.

⁸

и^ ѓ^чищђ я& эT всњхъ непра'вдъ и^хъ ја%же съгрњши'ша ми. и^ млsтивъ бђдђ всMњ непра'вдамᲆ иX, и^миже эTсᲄђпи'ша эT мене, и^ погордњша мно'ю.

⁸

And it came to pass, when Jeremias had ceased speaking all that the Lord had ordered him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the false prophets and all the people took him, saying,

⁹

и^ бђдет# въ веселїе и^ въ хва'лђ, и^ въ величїе всњмъ лю'демъ земля`. ја%же ё^слы'шатъ вс^я бл~готы, ја%же а^ꙁᲆ творю. и^ ё^бояTся и^ разгнњваюTся ѓ^ всXњ бл~готаX, и^ ѓ^ всеM мире, и^же аZ творю иM”

⁹

Thou shalt surely die, because thou hast prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be as Selo, and this city shall be made quite destitute of inhabitants. And all the people assembled against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.

¹⁰

Та'ко рече г~ь, е^ще ё^слы'шится в семъ мњсте, е^мђже в^ы гл~ете, пђсто е^сть эT чл~къ и^ эT скота въ гра'дњхъ і^ё'динњхᲆ, и^ внњ і^ерsли'ма ѓ^пђстњвшихъ, понеже нњсть чл~ка н^и скота.

¹⁰

And the princes of Juda heard this word, and they went up out of the house of the king to the house of the Lord, and sat in the entrance of the new gate.

¹¹

гла'съ веселїя, и^ гла'съ ра'дости. глаs женя'щагося, и^ гла'съ невњстенъ” гла'съ гл~ющиX и^сповњда'итеся гв~и вседръжи'телю ја^ко бл~гъ г~ь, ја%ко в# вњкъ млsть е^го. и^ принесђтъ да'ры похваленїя въ доM гн~ь, ја%ко въꙁвращђ вс^е и^с#селе'нїе земля тоя` по пе'рьвомђ, рече г~ь”

¹¹

Then the priests and the false prophets said to the princes and to all the people, The judgment of death is due to this man; because he has prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.

¹²

Та'ко гл~етъ г~ь си'лъ, е^ще` бђдетъ на се'мъ мњстњ пђстњмъ, и%мже нњсть чл~ка н^и скота`, въ всXњ градXњ е^го ѓ^бителницъ, пастXђ поставля'ю^щь па'ствы, а^

¹²

Then Jeremias spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying, The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city, all the words which ye have heard.

¹³

въ градXњ горныX, и^ въ градXњ по'льскиX, и^ въ градXњ наге'въ, и^ въ ꙁемли` венїаминњ, и^ въ ѓ^крsтъныхъ і^ерsли'ма, и^ въ гра'дњхъ і^ё'динњхъ, е^ще` поидђтъ ѓ%вца къ рђцњ чтђщаго, гл~ет г~ь”

¹³

And now amend your ways and your works, and hearken to the voice of the Lord; and the Lord shall cease from the evils which he has pronounced against you.

¹⁴

Се дн~їе грядTђ рече г~ь, и^ въсᲄавлю сло'во бл~го, е^же гл~ахъ къ домђ і^и^л~евђ, и^ къ до'мђ і^ё^динђ.

¹⁴

And behold, I am in your hands; do to me as is expedient, and as it is best for you.

¹⁵

въ тњхъ дн~ехъ и^ въ то'и чаs, с#плоди'тися повелю двDвђ пло'дђ пра'веDнђ, и^ сътворитъ сђдъ и^ пра'вдђ на земли`.

¹⁵

But know for a certainty, that if ye slay me, ye bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon them that dwell in it; for in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak in your ears all these words.

¹⁶

въ тњхъ дн~ехъ спасенъ бђ'етъ і^ё'да, і^и^л~ь пребђдеT вᲆ наде'жди. и^ с^е е^сᲄь и^мя, и%мже нарекђтъ и&, г~ь пра'ведныи на'шᲆ”

¹⁶

Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the false prophets; Judgment of death is not due to this man; for he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.

¹⁷

Та'ко б^о рече г~ь, не погибнеT эT дв~да мђжᲆ сњдя'и на прsтлᲇ до'мђ і^и^л~ева.

¹⁷

And there rose up men of the elders of the land, and said to all the assembly of the people,

¹⁸

и^ эT жрецъ и^ эT левљ=товъ не поги'бнет# мђжъ эT лица мое^го, приносяи всесоQженїе и^ ѓ^сщ~ен#ная, и^ побњдная приношенїя по вся` дн~и”

¹⁸

Michæas the Morathite lived in the days of Ezekias king of Juda, and said to all the people of Juda, Thus saith the Lord; Sion shall be ploughed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become a desolation, and the mountain of the house shall be a thicket of trees.

¹⁹

И$ бы'сть сло'во гн~е къ і^еремїи гл~я.

¹⁹

Did Ezekias and all Juda in any way slay him? Was it not that they feared the Lord, and they made supplication before the Lord, and the Lord ceased from the evils which he had pronounced against them? whereas we have wrought great evil against our own souls.

²⁰

та'ко гл~етъ г~ь, мо'жетъ л^и прерђшитися завњтъ мо'и съ дн~емъ, и^ ꙁавњт# мо'и съ нощїю, е^же не бы'ти дн~ю и^ но'щи въ ча'съ свои.

²⁰

And there was another man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Samæas of Cariathiarim; and he prophesied concerning this land according to all the words of Jeremias.

²¹

и^ ꙁавњтъ мо'и бђдет# мощи` прерђшитися съ дв~домᲆ рабоM мои^м#, е^же не бы'ти эT него` сн~ђ цр~ьствђ'ющђ на прsтлњ е^го, и^ левљ=ти и^ сщ~ен#ници раби` мои`.

²¹

And king Joakim and all the princes heard all his words, and sought to slay him; and Urias heard it and went into Egypt.

²²

ја%коже сочᲄены бы'ти не могђтъ ѕвњзды нбsныя, н^и и^ꙁмњренъ бы'ти пњсок# мор#скїи. та'ко ё^мно'жђ сњмя раба` мое^го дв~да, и^ левљ=ты слђже'бники моа`”

²²

And the king sent men into Egypt;

²³

И$ бы'сть сло'во гн~е къ мнњ` гл~я,

²³

and they brought him thence, and brought him in to the king; and he smote him with the sword, and cast him into the sepulchre of the children of his people.

²⁴

е^да` не ви'дњлъ е^си чт^о рекоша лю'дїе сїи гл~юще. дв^а наро'да иXже и^ꙁволи г~ь завержены сђть, и^ люDми мои'ми погор#дњша. сего ради ја%ко да не бђдеT ктомђ нароD преD ними”

²⁴

Nevertheless the hand of Achicam son of Saphan was with Jeremias, to prevent his being delivered into the hands of the people, or being killed.

²⁵

Та'ко рече г~ь не положихъ л^и ё^бо завњта межDђ дн~емъ и^ но'щїю, и^ ꙁако'новъ нб~ђ и^ земли`.

²⁶

тогда` сњмя і^а'ковле, и^ двDа раба` мое^го эTвръгђ. е^же не прїя'ти эT сњмене е^го княѕеи сњмене а^врааMля, і^ и^а'ковля. ја%ко па'ки приведђ ѓ^бращенїе и^хъ, и^ поми'лђю я&”
