(За? н7.) Їaкwвъ, бGу и3 гDу ї}су хrтY рaбъ, nбэманaдесzте колёнома, и5же въ разсёzніи, рaдоватисz.

¹

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are of the Dispersion, greeting.

²

Всsку рaдость и3мёйте, брaтіе мо‰, є3гдA во и3скушє1ніz впaдаете разли6чна,

²

Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into manifold temptations;

³

вёдzще, ћкw и3скушeніе вaшеz вёры содёловаетъ терпёніе:

³

knowing that the proving of your faith worketh patience.

⁴

терпёніе же дёло совершeнно да и4мать, ћкw да бyдете совершeнни и3 всецёли, ни въ чeмже лишeни.

⁴

And let patience have its perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, lacking in nothing.

⁵

Ѓще же кто2 t вaсъ лишeнъ є4сть премyдрости, да пр0ситъ t даю1щагw бGа всBмъ нелицепріeмнэ и3 не поношaющагw, и3 дaстсz є3мY.

⁵

But if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

⁶

Да пр0ситъ же вёрою, ничт0же сумнsсz: сумнsйсz бо ўпод0бисz волнeнію морск0му, вBтры возметaему и3 развэвaему.

⁶

But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting: for he that doubteth is like the surge of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.

⁷

Да не мни1тъ бо человёкъ w4нъ, ћкw пріи1метъ что2 t бGа.

⁷

For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord;

⁸

Мyжъ двоедyшенъ неустр0енъ во всёхъ путeхъ свои1хъ.

⁸

a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

⁹

Да хвaлитсz же брaтъ смирeнный въ высотЁ своeй,

⁹

But let the brother of low degree glory in his high estate:

¹⁰

богaтый же во смирeніи своeмъ, занE ћкоже цвётъ трaвный мимои1детъ:

¹⁰

and the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

¹¹

возсіs бо с0лнце со зн0емъ, и3 и3зсуши2 травY, и3 цвётъ є3S tпадE, и3 благолёпіе лицA є3S поги1бе: си1це и3 богaтый въ хождeніи своeмъ ўвzдaетъ.

¹¹

For the sun ariseth with the scorching wind, and withereth the grass; and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his goings.

¹²

Бlжeнъ мyжъ, и4же претерпи1тъ и3скушeніе: занE и3скyсенъ бhвъ, пріи1метъ вэнeцъ жи1зни, є3г0же њбэщA бGъ лю1бzщымъ є3го2.

¹²

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to them that love him.

¹³

Никт0же и3скушaемь да глаг0летъ, ћкw t бGа и3скушaемь є4смь: бGъ бо нёсть и3скуси1тель ѕлы6мъ [и3скушaемь ѕлhми], не и3скушaетъ же т0й никог0же,

¹³

Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempteth no man:

¹⁴

кjйждо же и3скушaетсz, t своеS п0хоти влек0мь и3 прельщaемь:

¹⁴

but each man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.

¹⁵

тaже п0хоть зачeнши раждaетъ грёхъ, грёхъ же содёzнъ раждaетъ смeрть.

¹⁵

Then the lust, when it hath conceived, beareth sin: and the sin, when it is full-grown, bringeth forth death.

¹⁶

Не льсти1тесz, брaтіе мо‰ возлю1бленнаz:

¹⁶

Be not deceived, my beloved brethren.

¹⁷

всsко даsніе бlго и3 всsкъ дaръ совершeнъ свhше є4сть, сходsй t nц7A свётwвъ, ў негHже нёсть премэнeніе, и3ли2 преложeніz стёнь.

¹⁷

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, neither shadow that is cast by turning.

¹⁸

Восхотёвъ бо породи2 нaсъ сл0вомъ и4стины, во є4же бhти нaмъ начaтокъ нёкій создaніємъ є3гw2.

¹⁸

Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

¹⁹

(За? н7№.) Тёмже, брaтіе мо‰ возлю1бленнаz, да бyдетъ всsкъ человёкъ ск0ръ ўслhшати (и3) к0сенъ глаг0лати, к0сенъ во гнёвъ,

¹⁹

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

²⁰

гнёвъ бо мyжа, прaвды б9іz не содёловаетъ.

²⁰

for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

²¹

Сегw2 рaди tл0жше всsку сквeрну и3 и3збhтокъ ѕл0бы, въ кр0тости пріими1те всаждeнное сл0во, могyщее спcти2 дyшы вaшz.

²¹

Wherefore putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

²²

Бывaйте же творцы2 сл0ва, ґ не т0чію слhшатєли, прельщaюще себE самёхъ.

²²

But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves.

²³

ЗанE ѓще кто2 є4сть слhшатель сл0ва, ґ не творeцъ, таковhй ўпод0бисz мyжу смотрsющу лицE бытіS своегw2 въ зерцaлэ:

²³

For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:

²⁴

ўсмотри1 бо себE и3 tи1де, и3 ѓбіе забы2, как0въ бЁ.

²⁴

for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightaway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

²⁵

Прини1кій же въ зак0нъ совершeнъ своб0ды, и3 пребhвъ, сeй не слhшатель забhтливъ бhвъ, но творeцъ дёла, сeй бlжeнъ въ дёланіи своeмъ бyдетъ.

²⁵

But he that looketh into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and so continueth, he being not a hearer that forgetteth but a doer that worketh, this man shall be blessed in his doing.

²⁶

Ѓще кто2 мни1тсz вёренъ бhти въ вaсъ, и3 не њбуздовaетъ љзhка своегw2, но льсти1тъ сeрдце своE, сегw2 сyетна (є4сть) вёра.

²⁶

If any man among you thinketh himself to be religious, while he bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his heart, this man’s religion is vain.

²⁷

Вёра бо чтcA и3 несквeрна пред8 бGомъ и3 nц7eмъ сіS є4сть, є4же посэщaти си1рыхъ и3 вдови1цъ въ ск0рбехъ и4хъ, (и3) несквeрна себE блюсти2 t мjра.

²⁷

Pure religion and undefiled before God, even the Father, is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
