1
|
| Є҆́сть бо сребрꙋ̀ мѣ́сто, ѿѻнꙋ́дꙋже и҆ быва́етъ, и҆ мѣ́сто зла́тꙋ, ѿѻнꙋ́дꙋже ѡ҆чища́етсѧ. | For there is a place for the silver, whence it comes, and a place for the gold, whence it is refined. |
|
2
|
2
|
| Желѣ́зо бо и҆з̾ землѝ ражда́етсѧ, мѣ́дь же ра́внѡ ка́менїю сѣче́тсѧ. | For iron comes out of the earth, and brass is hewn out like stone. |
|
3
|
3
|
| Чи́нъ положѝ тмѣ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ концы̑ са́мъ и҆спытꙋ́етъ, камы́къ тмы̀ и҆ сѣ́нь сме́рти. | He has set a bound to darkness, and he searches out every limit: a stone is darkness, and the shadow of death. |
|
4
|
4
|
| Пресѣче́нїе пото́ка ѿ пра́ха: забыва́ющїи же пꙋ́ть пра́вый и҆знемого́ша, ѿ человѣ̑къ подвиго́шасѧ. | There is a cutting off of the torrent by reason of dust: so they that forget the right way are weakened; they are removed from among men. |
|
5
|
5
|
| Є҆́сть землѧ̀, и҆з̾ неѧ́же и҆зы́детъ хлѣ́бъ: под̾ не́ю ѡ҆брати́сѧ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́гнь. | As for the earth, out of it shall come bread: under it has been turned up as it were fire. |
|
6
|
6
|
| Мѣ́сто сапфі́ра ка́менїе є҆ѧ̀, и҆ пе́рсть зла́то є҆мꙋ̀. | Her stones are the place of the sapphire: and her dust supplies man with gold. |
|
7
|
7
|
| Стезѧ̀, не позна̀ є҆ѧ̀ пти́ца, и҆ не оу҆зрѣ̀ ю҆̀ ѻ҆́ко сꙋ́пово, | There is a path, the fowl has not known it, neither has the eye of the vulture seen it: |
|
8
|
8
|
| и҆ не ходи́ша по не́й сы́нове велича́выхъ, и҆ не пре́йде по не́й ле́въ. | neither have the sons of the proud trodden it, a lion has not passed upon it. |
|
9
|
9
|
| На несѣко́мѣ ка́мени прострѐ рꙋ́кꙋ свою̀, преврати́ же и҆з̾ коре́нїѧ го́ры: | He has stretched forth his hand on the sharp rock, and turned up mountains by the roots: |
|
10
|
10
|
| бре́ги рѣ́къ расто́рже, всѧ́кое же честно́е ви́дѣ ѻ҆́ко моѐ: | and he has interrupted the whirlpools of rivers, and mine eye has seen every precious thing. |
|
11
|
11
|
| глꙋбины̑ же рѣ́къ ѿкры̀ и҆ показа̀ си́лꙋ свою̀ на свѣ́тъ. | And he has laid bare the depths of rivers, and has brought his power to light. |
|
12
|
12
|
| Премꙋ́дрость же ѿкꙋ́дꙋ ѡ҆брѣ́тесѧ; и҆ ко́е мѣ́сто є҆́сть вѣ́дѣнїѧ; | But whence has wisdom been discovered? and what is the place of knowledge? |
|
13
|
13
|
| Не вѣ́сть человѣ́къ пꙋтѝ є҆ѧ̀, нижѐ ѡ҆брѣ́тесѧ въ человѣ́цѣхъ. | A mortal has not known its way, neither indeed has it been discovered among men. |
|
14
|
14
|
| Бе́здна речѐ: нѣ́сть во мнѣ̀: и҆ мо́ре речѐ: нѣ́сть со мно́ю. | The depth said, It is not in me: and the sea said, It is not with me. |
|
15
|
15
|
| Не да́стсѧ сокро́вище за ню̀, и҆ не и҆звѣ́ситсѧ сребро̀ на и҆змѣне́нїе є҆ѧ̀, | One shall not give fine gold instead of it, neither shall silver be weighed in exchange for it. |
|
16
|
16
|
| и҆ не сравни́тсѧ со зла́томъ сѡфі́рскимъ, со ѻ҆́нѷѯомъ честны́мъ и҆ сапфі́ромъ: | Neither shall it be compared with gold of Sophir, with the precious onyx and sapphire. |
|
17
|
17
|
| не ра́вно бꙋ́детъ є҆́й зла́то и҆ крѷста́ль, и҆ и҆змѣне́нїе є҆ѧ̀ сосꙋ́ди зла́ти. | Gold and crystal shall not be equalled to it, neither shall vessels of gold be its exchange. |
|
18
|
18
|
| Превысѡ́каѧ и҆ би́серїе не помѧ́нꙋтсѧ, и҆ притѧжѝ премꙋ́дрость па́че внꙋ́треннѣйшихъ: | Coral and fine pearl shall not be mentioned: but do thou esteem wisdom above the most precious things. |
|
19
|
19
|
| не оу҆равни́тсѧ є҆́й топа́зїй є҆ѳїо́пскїй, со зла́томъ чи́стымъ не сравни́тсѧ. | The topaz of Ethiopia shall not be equalled to it; it shall not be compared with pure gold. |
|
20
|
20
|
| Премꙋ́дрость же ѿкꙋ́дꙋ ѡ҆брѣ́тесѧ; и҆ ко́е мѣ́сто є҆́сть ра́зꙋмꙋ; | Whence then is wisdom found? and of what kind is the place of understanding? |
|
21
|
21
|
| Оу҆таи́сѧ ѿ всѧ́кагѡ человѣ́ка, и҆ ѿ пти́цъ небе́сныхъ скры́сѧ. | It has escaped the notice of every man, and has been hidden from the birds of the sky. |
|
22
|
22
|
| Па́гꙋба и҆ сме́рть реко́стѣ: слы́шахомъ є҆ѧ̀ сла́вꙋ. | Destruction and Death said, We have heard the report of it. |
|
23
|
23
|
| Бг҃ъ бла́гѡ позна̀ є҆ѧ̀ пꙋ́ть: са́мъ бо вѣ́сть мѣ́сто є҆ѧ̀. | God has well ordered the way of it, and he knows the place of it. |
|
24
|
24
|
| И҆́бо са́мъ поднебе́снꙋю всю̀ надзира́етъ, вѣ́дый, ꙗ҆̀же на землѝ, всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же сотворѝ. | For he surveys the whole earth under heaven, knowing the things in the earth: |
|
25
|
25
|
| Вѣ́трѡвъ вѣ́съ и҆ водѣ̀ мѣ́рꙋ є҆гда̀ сотвори́лъ, | all that he has made; the weight of the winds, the measures of the water. |
|
26
|
26
|
| та́кѡ ви́дѧй сочтѐ, и҆ пꙋ́ть въ сотрѧсе́нїи гласѡ́въ, | When he made them, thus he saw and numbered them, and made a way for the pealing of the thunder. |
|
27
|
27
|
| тогда̀ ви́дѣ ю҆̀ и҆ повѣ́да ю҆̀, оу҆гото́вавъ и҆зслѣ́ди | Then he saw it, and declared it: he prepared it and traced it out. |
|
28
|
28
|
| и҆ речѐ человѣ́кꙋ: сѐ, благоче́стїе є҆́сть премꙋ́дрость, а҆ є҆́же оу҆далѧ́тисѧ ѿ ѕла̀ є҆́сть вѣ́дѣнїе. | And he said to man, Behold, godliness is wisdom; and to abstain from evil is understanding. |
