(Заⷱ҇ н҃в҃.) Бра́тїе моѧ̑, не на лица̑ зрѧ́ще и҆мѣ́йте вѣ́рꙋ гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀ сла́вы.

¹

My brethren, hold not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.

²

А҆́ще бо вни́детъ въ со́нмище ва́ше мꙋ́жъ, зла́тъ пе́рстень носѧ̀, въ ри́зѣ свѣ́тлѣ, вни́детъ же и҆ ни́щь въ хꙋ́дѣ ѡ҆дѣ́жди,

²

For if there come into your synagogue a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, and there come in also a poor man in vile clothing;

³

и҆ воззритѐ на носѧ́щаго ри́зꙋ свѣ́тлꙋ, и҆ рече́те є҆мꙋ̀: ты̀ сѧ́ди здѣ̀ до́брѣ: и҆ ни́щемꙋ рече́те: ты̀ ста́ни та́мѡ, и҆лѝ сѧ́ди здѣ̀ на подно́жїи мое́мъ:

³

and ye have regard to him that weareth the fine clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and ye say to the poor man, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool;

⁴

и҆ не разсмотри́сте въ себѣ̀, и҆ бы́сте сꙋдїи̑ помышле́нїй ѕлы́хъ.

⁴

do ye not then make distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

⁵

Слы́шите, бра́тїе моѧ̑ возлю́бленнаѧ, не бг҃ъ ли и҆збра̀ ни́щыѧ мі́ра сегѡ̀ бога̑ты въ вѣ́рѣ и҆ наслѣ́дники црⷭ҇твїѧ, є҆́же ѡ҆бѣща̀ лю́бѧщымъ є҆го̀;

⁵

Hearken, my beloved brethren; did not God choose them that are poor of the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to them that love him?

⁶

вы́ же оу҆кори́сте ни́щаго. Не бога́тїи ли наси́лꙋютъ ва́мъ, и҆ ті́и влекꙋ́тъ вы̀ на сꙋди̑ща;

⁶

But ye have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you, and themselves drag you before the judgment seats?

⁷

не ті́и ли хꙋ́лѧтъ до́брое и҆́мѧ нарече́нное на ва́съ;

⁷

Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which ye are called?

⁸

А҆́ще оу҆́бѡ зако́нъ соверша́ете ца́рскїй, по писа́нїю: возлю́биши и҆́скреннѧго своего̀ ꙗ҆́коже себѐ сама́го, до́брѣ творитѐ:

⁸

Howbeit if ye fulfill the royal law, according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well:

⁹

а҆́ще же на лица̑ зритѐ, то̀ грѣ́хъ содѣва́ете, ѡ҆блича́еми ѿ зако́на ꙗ҆́коже престꙋ̑пницы.

⁹

but if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

¹⁰

И҆́же бо ве́сь зако́нъ соблюде́тъ, согрѣши́тъ же во є҆ди́нѣмъ, бы́сть всѣ́мъ пови́ненъ.

¹⁰

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is become guilty of all.

¹¹

Рекі́й бо: не прелюбы̀ сотвори́ши, ре́клъ є҆́сть и҆: не оу҆бїе́ши. А҆́ще же не прелюбы̀ сотвори́ши, оу҆бїе́ши же, бы́лъ є҆сѝ престꙋ́пникъ зако́на.

¹¹

For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

¹²

Та́кѡ глаго́лите и҆ та́кѡ твори́те, ꙗ҆́кѡ зако́номъ свобо́днымъ и҆мꙋ́щїи сꙋ́дъ прїѧ́ти.

¹²

So speak ye, and so do, as men that are to be judged by a law of liberty.

¹³

Сꙋ́дъ бо без̾ ми́лости не сотво́ршемꙋ ми́лости: и҆ хва́литсѧ ми́лость на сꙋдѣ̀.

¹³

For judgment is without mercy to him that hath shown no mercy: mercy glorieth against judgment.

¹⁴

(Заⷱ҇ н҃г҃.) Ка́ѧ по́льза, бра́тїе моѧ̑, а҆́ще вѣ́рꙋ глаго́летъ кто̀ и҆мѣ́ти, дѣ́лъ же не и҆́мать; є҆да̀ мо́жетъ вѣ́ра спⷭ҇тѝ є҆го̀;

¹⁴

What doth it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but have not works? can that faith save him?

¹⁵

А҆́ще же бра́тъ и҆лѝ сестра̀ на̑га бꙋ́дета и҆ лишє́на бꙋ́дета дневны́ѧ пи́щи,

¹⁵

Now if a brother or sister be naked and be in lack of daily food,

¹⁶

рече́тъ же и҆́ма кто̀ ѿ ва́съ: и҆ди́та съ ми́ромъ, грѣ́йтасѧ и҆ насыща́йтасѧ: не да́стъ же и҆́ма тре́бованїѧ тѣле́снагѡ: ка́ѧ по́льза;

¹⁶

and one of you say unto them, Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; and yet ye give them not the things needful to the body; what doth it profit?

¹⁷

Та́кожде и҆ вѣ́ра, а҆́ще дѣ́лъ не и҆́мать, мертва̀ є҆́сть ѡ҆ себѣ̀.

¹⁷

Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself.

¹⁸

Но рече́тъ кто̀: ты̀ вѣ́рꙋ и҆́маши, а҆́зъ же дѣла̀ и҆́мамъ: покажѝ мѝ вѣ́рꙋ твою̀ ѿ дѣ́лъ твои́хъ, и҆ а҆́зъ тебѣ̀ покажꙋ̀ ѿ дѣ́лъ мои́хъ вѣ́рꙋ мою̀.

¹⁸

Yea, a man will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith by thy works, and I by my works will show thee my faith.

¹⁹

Ты̀ вѣ́рꙋеши, ꙗ҆́кѡ бг҃ъ є҆ди́нъ є҆́сть: до́брѣ твори́ши: и҆ бѣ́си вѣ́рꙋютъ, и҆ трепе́щꙋтъ.

¹⁹

Thou believest that God is one; thou doest well: the demons also believe, and shudder.

²⁰

Хо́щеши же ли разꙋмѣ́ти, ѽ, человѣ́че сꙋ́етне, ꙗ҆́кѡ вѣ́ра без̾ дѣ́лъ мертва̀ є҆́сть;

²⁰

But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?

²¹

А҆враа́мъ ѻ҆те́цъ на́шъ не ѿ дѣ́лъ ли ѡ҆правда́сѧ, возне́съ і҆саа́ка сы́на своего̀ на же́ртвенникъ;

²¹

Was not Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son upon the altar?

²²

Ви́диши ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ вѣ́ра поспѣ́шествоваше дѣлѡ́мъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ѿ дѣ́лъ соверши́сѧ вѣ́ра;

²²

Seest thou that faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

²³

И҆ соверши́сѧ писа́нїе глаго́лющее: вѣ́рова же а҆враа́мъ бг҃ови, и҆ вмѣни́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀ въ пра́вдꙋ, и҆ дрꙋ́гъ бж҃їй наре́чесѧ.

²³

And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness; and he was called the friend of God.

²⁴

Зрите́ ли оу҆̀бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ дѣ́лъ ѡ҆правда́етсѧ человѣ́къ, а҆ не ѿ вѣ́ры є҆ди́ныѧ;

²⁴

Ye see then that by works a man is justified, and not only by faith.

²⁵

Та́кожде же и҆ раа́въ блꙋдни́ца не ѿ дѣ́лъ ли ѡ҆правда́сѧ, прїе́мши схо́дники и҆ и҆ны́мъ пꙋте́мъ и҆зве́дши и҆̀хъ;

²⁵

And in like manner was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?

²⁶

Ꙗ҆́коже бо тѣ́ло без̾ дꙋ́ха мертво̀ є҆́сть, та́кѡ и҆ вѣ́ра без̾ дѣ́лъ мертва̀ є҆́сть.

²⁶

For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
