Chapter 1

¹

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect who are sojourners of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

¹

(За? н7}.) Пeтръ, ґпcлъ ї}съ хrт0въ, и3збр†ннымъ пришeлцємъ разсёzніz п0нта, галатjи, каппадокjи, ґсjи и3 віfmнjи,

²

according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

²

по прозрёнію бGа nц7A, во с™hни д¦а, въ послушaніе и3 кроплeніе кр0ве ї}съ хrт0вы: блгdть вaмъ и3 ми1ръ да ўмн0житсz.

³

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy begat us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

³

(За?.) Блгcвeнъ бGъ и3 nц7ъ гDа нaшегw ї}са хrтA, и4же по мн0зей своeй млcти порождeй нaсъ во ўповaніе жи1во воскrніемъ ї}съ хrт0вымъ t мeртвыхъ,

⁴

unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

⁴

въ наслёдіе нетлённо и3 несквeрно и3 неувzдaемо, соблюдeно на нб7сёхъ вaсъ рaди,

⁵

who by the power of God are guarded through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

⁵

и5же си1лою б9іею соблюдaеми є3стE чрез8 вёру, во спcніе гот0вое kви1тисz во врeмz послёднее.

⁶

Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, ye have been put to grief in manifold trials,

⁶

Њ нeмже рaдуйтесz, мaлw нн7э, ѓще лёпо є4сть, приск0рбни бhвше въ разли1чныхъ напaстэхъ:

⁷

that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and honor and unto glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

⁷

да и3скушeніе вaшеz вёры многочестнёйше злaта ги1бнуща, nгнeмъ же и3скушeна, њбрsщетсz въ похвалY и3 чeсть и3 слaву, во tкровeніи ї}съ хrт0вэ,

⁸

whom not having known ye love; on whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

⁸

є3г0же не ви1дэвше лю1бите, (и3) на нег0же нн7э не зрsще, вёрующе же, рaдуетесz рaдостію неизглаг0ланною и3 прослaвленною,

⁹

receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

⁹

пріeмлюще кончи1ну вёрэ вaшей, спcніе душaмъ:

¹⁰

Concerning which salvation the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

¹⁰

њ нeмже спcніи взыскaша и3 и3спытaша прbр0цы, и5же њ вaшей блгdти прорек0ша,

¹¹

searching what time or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did point unto, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow them.

¹¹

и3спытaюще, въ каково2 и3ли2 въ к0е врeмz kвлsше въ ни1хъ д¦ъ хrт0въ, прeжде свидётелствуz њ хrт0выхъ стrтeхъ, и3 њ слaвахъ, ±же по си1хъ:

¹²

To whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto you, did they minister these things, which now have been announced unto you through them that preached the gospel unto you by the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.

¹²

и5мже tкрhсz, ћкw не и5мъ самBмъ, но нaмъ служaху сі‰, ±же нн7э возвэсти1шасz вaмъ благовэствовaвшими вaмъ д¦омъ с™hмъ п0сланнымъ съ нб7сE, въ нsже желaютъ ѓгGли прини1кнути.

¹³

Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

¹³

(За?.) Тёмже, (возлю1бленніи,) препоsсавше чрeсла помышлeніz вaшегw, трезвsщесz, совершeннэ ўповaйте на приноси1мую вaмъ блгdть tкровeніемъ ї}съ хrт0вымъ.

¹⁴

as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in the time of your ignorance:

¹⁴

Ћкw ч†да послушaніz, не преwбразyющесz пeрвыми невёдэніz вaшего похотBніи,

¹⁵

but like as he who called you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living;

¹⁵

но по звaвшему вы2 с™0му, и3 сaми с™и во всeмъ житіи2 бyдите.

¹⁶

because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

¹⁶

ЗанE пи1сано є4сть: с™и бyдите, ћкw ѓзъ с™ъ є4смь.

¹⁷

And if ye call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to each man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:

¹⁷

И# ѓще nц7A назывaете нелицемёрнw судsща комyждо по дёлу, со стрaхомъ житіS вaшегw врeмz жи1телствуйте,

¹⁸

knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;

¹⁸

вёдzще, ћкw не и3стлённымъ сребр0мъ и3ли2 злaтомъ и3збaвистесz t сyетнагw вaшегw житіS nтцы6 прeданнагw,

¹⁹

but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, even the blood of Christ:

¹⁹

но чтcн0ю кр0вію ћкw ѓгнца непор0чна и3 пречcта хrтA,

²⁰

who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the last times for your sake,

²⁰

пред8увёдэна ќбw прeжде сложeніz мjра, ћвльшасz же въ послBднzz лBта вaсъ рaди,

²¹

who through him do believe in God, that raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.

²¹

и5же є3гw2 рaди вёруете въ бGа воздви1гшаго є3го2 и3з8 мeртвыхъ и3 слaву є3мY дaвша, ћкw да вёра вaша и3 ўповaніе бyдетъ на бGа.

²²

Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from a clean heart fervently:

²²

Дyшы вaшz њчи1стивше въ послушaніи и4стины д¦омъ, въ братолю1біе нелицемёрно, t чи1ста сeрдца дрyгъ дрyга люби1те прилёжнw,

²³

having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.

²³

порождeни не t сёмене и3стлённа, но неистлённа, сл0вомъ живaгw бGа и3 пребывaюща во вёки.

²⁴

For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth:

²⁴

ЗанE всsка пл0ть ћкw травA, и3 всsка слaва человёча ћкw цвётъ трaвный: и4зсше травA, и3 цвётъ є3S tпадE:

²⁵

But the word of the Lord abideth forever. And this is the word of good tidings which was preached unto you.

²⁵

гlг0лъ же гDнь пребывaетъ во вёки. Сe же є4сть гlг0лъ благовэствовaнный въ вaсъ.

Chapter 2

¹

Putting away therefore all wickedness, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

¹

Tл0жше u5бо всsку ѕл0бу и3 всsку лeсть и3 лицемёріе и3 зaвисть и3 вс‰ клевєты6,

²

as newborn babes, long for the spiritual milk which is without guile, that ye may grow thereby unto salvation;

²

ћкw новорождeни младeнцы, словeсное и3 нелeстное млeко возлюби1те, ћкw да њ нeмъ возрастeте во сп7сeніе:

³

if so be that ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious:

³

понeже вкуси1сте, ћкw бlгъ гDь.

⁴

unto whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed of men, but with God elect, precious,

⁴

Къ немyже приходsще, кaмени жи1ву, t человBкъ ќбw ўничижeну, t бGа же и3збрaну, чтcну,

⁵

ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

⁵

и3 сaми ћкw кaменіе жи1во зижди1тесz во хрaмъ д¦0венъ, с™и1телство с™о, возноси1ти жє1ртвы д¦Hвны, бlгопрі‰тны бGови ї}съ хrт0мъ.

⁶

Because it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.

⁶

ЗанE пи1сано є4сть въ писaніи: сE полагaю въ сіHнэ кaмень краеуг0ленъ, и3збрaнъ, чтcенъ: и3 вёруzй в0нь не постыди1тсz.

⁷

For you therefore that believe is the preciousness: but unto them that are disobedient, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner;

⁷

Вaмъ u5бо чeсть вёрующымъ, ґ проти1вzщымсz кaмень, є3гHже небрег0ша зи1ждущіи, сeй бhсть во главY ќгла, и3 кaмень претыкaніz и3 кaмень соблaзна:

⁸

and, A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense; for they stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

⁸

њ нeмже и3 претыкaютсz сл0ву противлsющіисz, на нeже и3 положeни бhша.

⁹

But ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:

⁹

Вh же р0дъ и3збрaнъ, цaрское свzщeніе, kзhкъ с™ъ, лю1діе њбновлeніz, ћкw да добродётєли возвэститE и3з8 тмы2 вaсъ призвaвшагw въ чyдный св0й свётъ:

¹⁰

who in time past were no people, but now are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

¹⁰

и5же и3ногдA не лю1діе, нн7э же лю1діе б9іи: и5же не поми1ловани, нн7э же поми1ловани бhсте.

¹¹

Beloved, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

¹¹

(За?.) Возлю1бленніи, молю2 ћкw пришeлцєвъ и3 стрaнникwвъ, њгребaтисz t плотски1хъ похотeй, ±же вою1ютъ на дyшу,

¹²

having your behavior seemly among the Gentiles; that, wherein they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

¹²

житіE вaше и3мyще добро2 во kзhцэхъ, да њ нeмже клевeщутъ вaсъ ѓки ѕлодёєвъ, t д0брыхъ дёлъ ви1дэвше, прослaвzтъ бGа въ дeнь посэщeніz.

¹³

Be subject therefore to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme;

¹³

Повини1тесz u5бо всsкому человёчу создaнію [начaлству] гDа рaди: ѓще царю2, ћкw преwбладaющу:

¹⁴

or unto governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to them that do well.

¹⁴

ѓще ли же кнzзє1мъ, ћкw t негw2 пHсланнымъ, во tмщeніе ќбw ѕлодёємъ, въ похвалy же бlготв0рцємъ.

¹⁵

For so is the will of God, that by well-doing ye should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

¹⁵

Ћкw тaкw є4сть в0лz б9іz, благотворsщымъ њбуздовaти безyмныхъ человBкъ невёжство:

¹⁶

as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

¹⁶

ћкw своб0дни, ґ не ћкw прикровeніе и3мyще ѕл0бы своб0ду, но ћкw раби2 б9іи.

¹⁷

Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

¹⁷

Всёхъ почитaйте, брaтство возлюби1те, бGа б0йтесz, царS чти1те.

¹⁸

Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

¹⁸

Раби2, повинyйтесz во всsцэмъ стрaсэ владhкамъ, не т0кмw благи6мъ и3 крHткимъ, но и3 стропти6вымъ.

¹⁹

For this is acceptable, if for conscience toward God a man endureth griefs, suffering wrongfully.

¹⁹

Сe бо є4сть ўг0дно пред8 бGомъ, ѓще с0вэсти рaди б9іz терпи1тъ кто2 скHрби, страждA без8 прaвды.

²⁰

For what glory is it, if, when ye sin, and are buffeted for it, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye shall take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

²⁰

Кaz бо похвалA, ѓще согрэшaюще мyчими терпитE; Но ѓще добро2 творsще и3 стрaждуще терпитE, сіE ўг0дно пред8 бGомъ,

²¹

For hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that ye should follow his steps:

²¹

на сіe бо и3 звaни бhсте: (За? н7f7.) занE и3 хrт0съ пострадA по нaсъ, нaмъ њстaвль w4бразъ, да послёдуемъ стопaмъ є3гw2:

²²

who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

²²

и4же грэхA не сотвори2, ни њбрётесz лeсть во ўстёхъ є3гw2:

²³

who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

²³

и4же ўкарsемь проти1ву не ўкарsше, страждA не прещaше, предаsше же судsщему првdнw:

²⁴

who his own self bare our sins in his body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.

²⁴

и4же грэхи2 нашS сaмъ вознесE на тёлэ своeмъ на дрeво, да t грBхъ и3збhвше, прaвдою поживeмъ: є3гHже ћзвою и3сцэлёсте.

²⁵

For ye were like sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

²⁵

Бёсте бо ћкw џвцы заблyждшыz (не и3мyщz пaстырz): но возврати1стесz нн7э къ пaстырю и3 посэти1телю дyшъ вaшихъ.

Chapter 3

¹

In like manner, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, even if any obey not the word, they shall without the word be gained by the behavior of their wives;

¹

Тaкожде же и3 жєны2, повинyющzсz свои6мъ мужє1мъ, да и3 ѓще нёцыи не повинyютсz сл0ву, жeнскимъ житіeмъ без8 сл0ва плэнeни бyдутъ,

²

beholding your chaste behavior coupled with fear.

²

ви1дэвше є4же со стрaхомъ чи1сто житіE вaше.

³

Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel;

³

И%мже да бyдетъ не внёшнzz, плетeніz вл†съ и3 њбложeніz злaта, и3ли2 њдэsніz ри1зъ, лёпота,

⁴

but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

⁴

но потаeный сeрдца человёкъ, въ неистлёніи кр0ткагw и3 молчали1вагw дyха, є4же є4сть пред8 бGомъ многоцённо.

⁵

For after this manner aforetime the holy women also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:

⁵

Тaкw бо и3ногдA и3 с™ы6z жены2, ўповaющыz на бGа, ўкрашaху себE, повинyющzсz свои6мъ мужє1мъ:

⁶

as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose children ye now are, if ye do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.

⁶

ћкоже сaрра послyшаше ґвраaма, господи1на того2 зовyщи: є3sже бhсте ч†да, благотворsщz и3 не боsщzсz ни є3ди1нагw стрaха.

⁷

Ye husbands, in like manner, dwell with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor unto the woman, as unto the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; to the end that your prayers be not hindered.

⁷

Мyжіе тaкожде, вкyпэ живyще со свои1ми женaми по рaзуму, ћкw немощнёйшу сосyду жeнскому воздаю1ще чeсть, ћкw и3 снаслBдницы блгdтныz жи1зни, во є4же не прекращaтисz моли1твамъ вaшымъ.

⁸

Finally, be ye all like-minded, compassionate, loving as brethren, tenderhearted, courteous:

⁸

Конeцъ же, вси2 є3диномyдрени бyдите, ми1лостиви, братолю1бцы, (милосeрдни,) благоутр0бни, мудролю1бцы, смиреномyдри:

⁹

not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye were hereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

⁹

не воздаю1ще ѕлA за ѕло2, и3ли2 досаждeніz за досаждeніе: супроти1вное же, благословsще, вёдzще, ћкw на сE звaни бhсте, да блгcвeніе наслёдите.

¹⁰

For, He that would love life, And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile:

¹⁰

(За? ….) Хотsй бо жив0тъ люби1ти и3 ви1дети дни6 бlги, да ўдержи1тъ љзhкъ св0й t ѕлA, и3 ўстнЁ свои2 є4же не глаг0лати льсти2.

¹¹

Let him turn away from evil, and do good; Let him seek peace, and pursue it.

¹¹

Да ўклони1тсz t ѕлA, и3 да сотвори1тъ бlго, да взhщетъ ми1ра и3 да держи1тсz є3гw2:

¹²

For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, And his ears unto their supplication: But the face of the Lord is upon them that do evil.

¹²

занE џчи гDни на првdныz, и3 ќшы є3гw2 въ моли1тву и4хъ, лицe же гDне на творsщыz ѕл†z, є4же потреби1ти и5хъ t земли2.

¹³

And who is he that will harm you, if ye become imitators of that which is good?

¹³

И# кто2 њѕл0битъ вaсъ, ѓще бlг0му под0бницы бyдете;

¹⁴

But even if ye should suffer for righteousness’ sake, blessed are ye: and fear not their fear, neither be troubled;

¹⁴

Но ѓще и3 стрaждете прaвды рaди, бlжeни є3стE: стрaха же и4хъ не ўб0йтесz, нижE смущaйтесz.

¹⁵

but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear:

¹⁵

ГDа же бGа њсвzти1те въ сердцaхъ вaшихъ: гот0ви же пrнw ко tвёту всsкому вопрошaющему вы2 словесE њ вaшемъ ўповaніи, съ кр0тостію и3 стрaхомъ:

¹⁶

having a good conscience; that, wherein they speak against you as evildoers, they may be put to shame who revile your good manner of life in Christ.

¹⁶

с0вэсть и3мyще бlгу, да њ нeмже клевeщутъ вaсъ ѓки ѕлодёєвъ, постыдsтсz ѕлосл0вzщіи вaше бlг0е њ хrтЁ житіE.

¹⁷

For it is better, if the will of God should so will, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evildoing.

¹⁷

Лyчше бо є4сть бlг0е творsщымъ, ѓще х0щетъ в0лz б9іz, пострадaти, нeжели ѕло2 творsщымъ:

¹⁸

Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;

¹⁸

занE и3 хrт0съ є3ди1ною њ грэсёхъ нaшихъ пострадA, првdникъ за непрaведники, да приведeтъ ны2 бGови, ўмерщвлeнъ ќбw бhвъ пlтію, њжи1въ же д¦омъ:

¹⁹

in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison,

¹⁹

њ нeмже и3 сyщымъ въ темни1цэ духовHмъ сошeдъ проповёда,

²⁰

that aforetime were disobedient, when the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:

²⁰

проти1вльшымсz и3ногдA, є3гдA њжидaше б9іе долготерпёніе, во дни6 нHєвы, дёлаему ковчeгу, въ нeмже мaлw, си1рэчь џсмь дyшъ, спас0шасz t воды2.

²¹

which also after a true likeness doth now save us, even baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ;

²¹

Е#гHже воwбражeніе нн7э и3 нaсъ сп7сaетъ кRщeніе, не плотскjz tложeніе сквeрны, но с0вэсти бlги вопрошeніе ў бGа, воскrніемъ ї}съ хrт0вымъ,

²²

who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.

²²

и4же є4сть њ деснyю бGа, возшeдъ на нб7о, пок0ршымсz є3мY ѓгGлwмъ и3 властeмъ и3 си1ламъ.

Chapter 4

¹

Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm ye yourselves also with the same mind; for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

¹

(За? …№.) ХrтY u5бо пострадaвшу за ны2 пlтію, и3 вы2 въ тy же мhсль воwружи1тесz: занE пострадaвый пл0тію, престA t грэхA,

²

that ye no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

²

во є4же не ктомY человёчєскимъ п0хотемъ, но в0ли б9іей пр0чее во пл0ти жи1ти врeмz.

³

For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, and to have walked in lasciviousness, lusts, winebibbings, revelings, carousings, and abominable idolatries:

³

Довлёетъ бо вaмъ мимошeдшее врeмz житіS, в0лю kзhческую твори1вшымъ, х0ждшымъ въ нечистотaхъ, въ п0хотехъ, (въ мужел0жствэ, въ скотол0жствэ, въ п0мыслэхъ,) въ піsнствэ, въ козлогласовaніихъ, въ лихоимaніи и3 богомeрзкихъ їдwлослужeніихъ:

⁴

wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

⁴

њ нeмже дивsтсz, не сходsщымсz вaмъ въ т0же блудA разліsніе, хyлzще:

⁵

who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.

⁵

и5же воздадsтъ сл0во гот0ву сyщему суди1ти живы6мъ и3 мє1ртвымъ.

⁶

For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

⁶

На сe бо и3 мє1ртвымъ бlговэсти1сz, да сyдъ ќбw пріи1мутъ по человёку пл0тію, поживyтъ же по бз7э дyхомъ.

⁷

But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:

⁷

ВсBмъ же кончи1на прибли1жисz. Ўцэломyдритесz u5бо и3 трезви1тесz въ моли1твахъ.

⁸

and above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love shall cover a multitude of sins:

⁸

Прeжде же всёхъ дрyгъ ко дрyгу люб0вь прилёжну и3мёйте, занE люб0вь покрывaетъ мн0жество грэхHвъ.

⁹

using hospitality one to another without murmurings:

⁹

Страннолю1бцы дрyгъ ко дрyгу, без8 роптaніи.

¹⁰

according as each hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;

¹⁰

Кjйждо ћкоже пріsтъ даровaніе, междY себє2 си1мъ служaще, ћкw д0бріи строи1теліе разли1чныz блгdти б9іz.

¹¹

if any man speaketh, speaking as it were oracles of God; if any man ministereth, ministering as of strength as God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Ѓще кто2 глаг0летъ, ћкw словесA б9іz: ѓще кто2 слyжитъ, ћкw t крёпости, ю4же подаeтъ бGъ: да њ всeмъ слaвитсz бGъ ї}съ хrт0мъ, є3мyже є4сть слaва и3 держaва во вёки вэкHвъ. Ґми1нь.

¹²

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial among you, which cometh upon you to prove you, as though a strange thing happened unto you:

¹²

(За? …в7.) Возлю1бленніи, не диви1тесz є4же въ вaсъ раждежeнію ко и3скушeнію вaмъ бывaему, ћкw чyжду вaмъ случaющусz:

¹³

but insomuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exceeding joy.

¹³

но понeже приwбщaетесz хrтHвымъ страстeмъ, рaдуйтесz, ћкw да и3 въ kвлeніе слaвы є3гw2 возрaдуетесz веселsщесz.

¹⁴

If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are ye; because the Spirit of glory and the Spirit of God resteth upon you: on their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.

¹⁴

Ѓще ўкорsеми бывaете њ и4мени хrт0вэ, бlжeни є3стE ћкw слaвы и3 б9ій д¦ъ на вaсъ почивaетъ: џнэми ќбw хyлитсz, ґ вaми прославлsетсz.

¹⁵

For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evildoer, or as a meddler in other men’s matters:

¹⁵

Да не кто2 u5бо t вaсъ пострaждетъ ћкw ўбjйца, и3ли2 ћкw тaть, и3ли2 ћкw ѕлодёй, и3ли2 ћкw чуждопосэти1тель:

¹⁶

but if a man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this respect.

¹⁶

ѓще ли же ћкw хrтіaнинъ, да не стыди1тсz, да прославлsетъ же бGа въ чaсти сeй.

¹⁷

For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?

¹⁷

Ћкw врeмz начaти сyдъ t д0му б9іz: ѓще же прeжде t вaсъ, кaz кончи1на проти1вzщымсz б9ію є3ђлію;

¹⁸

And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?

¹⁸

И# ѓще првdникъ є3двA сп7сeтсz, нечести1вый и3 грёшный гдЁ kви1тсz;

¹⁹

Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

¹⁹

Тёмже и3 стрaждущіи по в0ли б9іей, ћкw вёрну зижди1телю да предадsтъ дyшы сво‰ во бlготворeніи.

Chapter 5

¹

The elders that are among you I exhort, who am a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, who am also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

¹

Стaрцы и5же въ вaсъ молю2, ћкw стaрецъ сhй и3 свидётель хrтHвымъ стrтeмъ, и4же и3 хотsщей слaвэ kви1тисz џбщникъ:

²

Tend the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not of constraint, but willingly; nor yet for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

²

паси1те є4же въ вaсъ стaдо б9іе, посэщaюще не нyждею, но в0лею и3 по бз7э, нижE непрaведными прибhтки, но ўсeрднw,

³

neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

³

ни ћкw њбладaюще при1чту, но w4брази бывaйте стaду:

⁴

And when the chief Shepherd shall be manifested, ye shall receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away.

⁴

и3 ћвльшусz пастыреначaлнику, пріи1мете неувzдaемый слaвы вэнeцъ.

⁵

Likewise, ye younger, be subject unto the elder: yea, all of you being subject one to another, gird yourselves with humility: for God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.

⁵

Тaкоже ю4ніи повини1тесz стaрцємъ: вси1 же дрyгъ дрyгу повинyющесz, смиреномdріе стzжи1те, занE бGъ гHрдымъ проти1витсz, смирє1ннымъ же даeтъ блгdть.

⁶

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;

⁶

(За? …G.) Смири1тесz u5бо под8 крёпкую рyку б9ію, да вы2 вознесeтъ во врeмz:

⁷

casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you.

⁷

всю2 печaль вaшу возвeргше нaнь, ћкw т0й печeтсz њ вaсъ.

⁸

Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking someone to devour:

⁸

Трезви1тесz, б0дрствуйте, занE супостaтъ вaшъ діaволъ, ћкw лeвъ рhкаz, х0дитъ, и3скjй кого2 поглоти1ти:

⁹

whom withstand steadfast in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are accomplished in your brethren who are in the world.

⁹

є3мyже проти1витесz твeрди вёрою, вёдуще, ћкw тёже стр†сти случaютсz вaшему брaтству, є4же въ мjрэ.

¹⁰

And the God of all grace, who called you unto his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a little while, himself perfect you; he shall establish, strengthen, settle you.

¹⁰

БGъ же всsкіz блгdти, призвaвый вaсъ въ вёчную свою2 слaву њ хrтЁ ї}сэ, мaлw пострадaвшыz, т0й да соверши1тъ вы2, да ўтверди1тъ, да ўкрэпи1тъ, да њснуeтъ.

¹¹

To him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

¹¹

ТомY слaва и3 держaва во вёки вэкHвъ. Ґми1нь.

¹²

By Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I account him, I have written unto you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.

¹²

Сілуaномъ вaмъ вёрнымъ брaтомъ, ћкw непщyю, вмaлэ написaхъ, молS и3 засвидётелствуz сeй бhти и4стиннэй блгdти б9іей, въ нeйже стоитE.

¹³

She that is in Babylon, elect together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Mark my son.

¹³

Цэлyетъ вы2 ћже въ вавmлHнэ соизбрaннаz, и3 мaрко сhнъ м0й.

¹⁴

Salute one another with a kiss of love. Peace be unto you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

¹⁴

Цэлyйте дрyгъ дрyга лобзaніемъ любвE. Ми1ръ вaмъ всBмъ њ хrтЁ ї}сэ. Ґми1нь.
