And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

¹

И бы'сть въ е^ді'нона'десяте лњто, въ тре'тїи мsцъ, въ е^ді'нъ дн~ь мsца. бысть слово гн~е кᲆ мнњ` гл~я,

²

Son of man, say to Pharao king of Egypt, and to his multitude; To whom hast thou compared thyself in thy haughtiness?

²

сн~е чл~чь, р#цы фараѓ'нђ цр~ю е^гљ=петскђ, и^ къ мно'жествђ е^го, комђ ся ё^подоби саM вᲆ высотњ` свое'и”

³

Behold, the Assyrian was a cypress in Libanus, and was fair in shoots, and high in stature: his top reached to the midst of the clouds.

³

Се^ а^сљ=ръ кљ=парисовъ в# дђбра'вњ до'бръ эTрасльми, и^ высокъ вели'чествоM и^ частъ кро'вомъ, и^ средњ ѓ%блакъ бысть вла'сть е^го”

⁴

The water nourished him, the depth made him grow tall; she led her rivers round about his plants, and she sent forth her streams to all the trees of the field.

⁴

водами въскоrми и&, бездна въꙁнесе и&. рњ'ки ея` приведе ѓ%крsтъ садовᲆ е^го, и^ състаv ея` и^спђсти` во вся` древеса пол#ская”

⁵

Therefore was his stature exalted above all the trees of the field, and his branches spread far by the help of much water.

⁵

сего ради вᲆꙁнесе'ся вели'чьство е^го паче всњхъ древе'съ по'льскихъ. и^ эTтђ'дђ раꙁ#ширишася вњтвїя е^го, и^ въꙁнесо'шася эTра'сли е^го эT во'ды мно'ги. е^гда` протяжеся,

⁶

All the birds of the sky made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches all the wild beasts of the field bred; the whole multitude of nations dwelt under his shadow.

⁶

въ эTра'слXњ е^го въгнњꙁди'шася вс^я пти'ца нбsныя, и^ поD вњтвъми е^го ражDахђся вс^и ѕвњрїе по'льстїи, поD сњнїю е^го всели'ся вс^е мно'жество стра'ньско.

⁷

And he was fair in his height by reason of the multitude of his branches: for his roots were amidst much water.

⁷

и^ бысᲄь до'бръ въ высотњ е^го мно'жества ради вњтвїи е^го, ја%ко бњша ко'ренїе е^го въ водњ` мно'ѕњ.

⁸

And such cypresses as this were in the paradise of God; and there were no pines like his shoots, and there were no firs like his branches: no tree in the paradise of God was like him in his beauty,

⁸

и^ кљ=париси не въꙁд#вигнђшася наD него` в раи` бж~їи. и^ бо'рове неприклон#ни вњяхъ е^го, и^ е'лїе не бысть прикло'н#но эTра'слњхъ е^го” вс^е дре'во е^же в раи` бж~їи, не бы'сть приклон#но е^мђ въ добротњ е^го. мно'жества ради вњи' е^го,

⁹

because of the multitude of his branches: and the trees of God's paradise of delight envied him.

⁹

до'бръ ся сътвори въ мноyствњ е^го. и^ въꙁревнова'ша е^мђ вс^я древеса` пи'ща ра'я бж~їя”

¹⁰

Therefore thus saith the Lord; Because thou art grown great, and hast set thy top in the midst of the clouds, and I saw when he was exalted;

¹⁰

Того раd с^е гл~етъ а^дона'и г~ь, понеже бы'сть вели'къ вели'чествомᲆ, и^ да'сть вла'сть свою` вᲆ средђ ѓ%блаk, и^ вознесеся срDце е^го въ высотњ е^го. и^ ви'дњхъ е^гда ся възнесе`,

¹¹

therefore I delivered him into the hands of the prince of the nations, and he wrought his destruction.

¹¹

и^ предахъ я& въ рђцњ кня'ѕя стра'ньска, и^ сътвори` пагђбђ е^го по нече'стїю е^го”

¹²

And ravaging strangers from the nations have destroyed him, and have cast him down upon the mountains: his branches fell in all the valleys, and his boughs were broken in every field of the land; and all the people of the nations are gone down from their shelter, and have laid him low.

¹²

И$з#гнаX и& а^ꙁъ, и^ потреби'ша и& расыпа'тели чюждїи, и^ повръго'ша и& на гора'хъ” и^ въ всњхъ де'брехъ падо'ша вњтви е^го, и^ сътрошася эTра'сли е^го на вся'комъ по'лњ ꙁемнемъ” И$ снидо'ша эT покро'ва е^го вс^и лю'дїе земнїи, и^ разори'ша и&”

¹³

All the birds of the sky have settled on his fallen trunk, and all the wild beasts of the field came upon his boughs:

¹³

ѓ^ паденїи е^го почїютъ вс^я пти'ца нбsныя, и^ ѓ^ вњ'ияхᲆ е^мђ бы'ша вс^и ѕвњри по'льстїи”

¹⁴

in order that none of the trees by the water should exalt themselves by reason of their size: whereas they set their top in the midst of the clouds, yet they continued not in their high state in their place, all that drank water, all were consigned to death, to the depth of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.

¹⁴

ЈА/коy да ся не въꙁвы'сят# вс^я древеса` ја%же въ водњ, и^ не дадя'тъ вла'сти свое'я средњ ѓ%блакъ. и^ не ста'нђтъ въ высотњ и^хъ късемђ пїющеи во'дђ. ја%ко вс^и эTда'ни бы'ша въ смр~ть въ ꙁе'млю глђбины, средњ сн~овъ члчsкᲆ сводимъ въ пропа'сть”

¹⁵

Thus saith the Lord God; In the day wherein he went down to Hades, the deep mourned for him: and I stayed her floods, and restrained her abundance of water: and Libanus saddened for him, all the trees of the field fainted for him.

¹⁵

Се^ гл~етъ а^дона'и г~ь, вон#же дн~ь сведеся во а'дᲆ пла'кася, бездна я& покры. и^ не пђсти рњки ея`. и^ въꙁбранихъ мно'жествђ воD” Смерчеся ѓ^ немъ дђбра'ва, и^ вся` древа по'льская ѓ^ немъ расла'бишася.

¹⁶

At the sound of his fall the nations quaked, when I brought him down to Hades with them that go down to the pit: and all the trees of Delight comforted him in the heart, and the choice plants of Libanus, all that drink water.

¹⁶

эT гла'са паденїя е^го потрясђтся страны`. е^гда` съвождахђть и& во а'дъ съ сходя'щими въ потокъ” И$ ё^тњшахђть и& въ ꙁеMли долњшнїи, и^ вс^я древеса пища і^ и^ꙁбран#ная и^ до'брая дђбра'вы, вся пїющая во'дђ.

¹⁷

For they went down to hell with him among the slain with the sword; and his seed, even they that dwelt under his shadow, perished in the midst of their life.

¹⁷

и^ та` б^о сведо'шася с ни'мъ во а'дᲆ съ ја%звеными эT меча`. и^ плоD е^го, и^ живђщеи поD покро'воM е^го средњ жи'ꙁни поги'бнђтъ”

¹⁸

To whom art thou compared? descend, and be thou debased with the trees of paradise to the depth of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword. Thus shall Pharao be, and the multitude of his host, saith the Lord God.

¹⁸

Комђ приклоненъ бы'сть си'лою и^ сла'вою, и^ вели'чеством# въ древесњхъ пи'щныX слњѕи сниди съ древесъ пи'ща, въ глђбинђ зе'мнђю” Средњ неѓ^брњꙁаныхъ ё^спнеши съ ја%ꙁвеными мечемъ. та'ко фараѓ'нъ, и^ вс^е мно'жество крњ'пости е^го, гл~етъ а^дона'и г~ь”
