¹

And it came to pass, when king Ezekias heard it, that he rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth, and went up to the house of the Lord.

¹

И҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ оу҆слы́ша ца́рь є҆зекі́а, растерза̀ ри̑зы и҆ ѡ҆блече́сѧ во вре́тище и҆ вни́де во хра́мъ гдⷭ҇ень:

²

And he sent Heliakim the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and the elders of the priests clothed with sackcloth, to Esaias the son of Amos, the prophet. And they said to him, Thus says Ezekias,

²

и҆ посла̀ є҆лїакі́ма домострои́телѧ, и҆ со́мнꙋ книго́чїѧ, и҆ старѣ̑йшины жре́чєски ѡ҆болчє́ны во врє́тища ко и҆са́їи прⷪ҇ро́кꙋ сы́нꙋ а҆мѡ́совꙋ.

³

To-day is a day of affliction, and reproach, and rebuke, and anger: for the pangs are come upon the travailing woman, but she has not strength to bring forth.

³

И҆ реко́ша є҆мꙋ̀: сїѧ̑ глаго́летъ є҆зекі́а: де́нь печа́ли и҆ оу҆кори́зны и҆ ѡ҆бличе́нїѧ и҆ гнѣ́ва дне́шнїй де́нь, поне́же прїи́де болѣ́знь ражда́ющей, крѣ́пости же не и҆мѣ́етъ роди́ти:

⁴

May the Lord thy God hear the words of Rabsaces, which the king of the Assyrians has sent, to reproach the living God, even to reproach with the words which the Lord thy God has heard: therefore thou shalt pray to thy Lord for these that are left.

⁴

да оу҆слы́шитъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й словеса̀ раѱа́кѡва, ꙗ҆̀же посла̀ ца́рь а҆ссѷрі́йскїй, господи́нъ є҆гѡ̀, оу҆карѧ́ти бг҃а жива́го и҆ поноси́ти словесы̀, ꙗ҆̀же слы́ша гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й, и҆ да помо́лишисѧ ко гдⷭ҇еви бг҃ꙋ твоемꙋ̀ ѡ҆ ѡ҆ста́вшихсѧ си́хъ.

⁵

So the servants of king Ezekias came to Esaias.

⁵

И҆ прїидо́ша ѻ҆́троцы царѧ̀ є҆зекі́и ко и҆са́їи.

⁶

And Esaias said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not thou afraid at the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the ambassadors of the king of the Assyrians have reproached me.

⁶

И҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ и҆са́їа: си́це рцы́те ко господи́нꙋ ва́шемꙋ: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: не оу҆бо́йсѧ ѿ слове́съ, ꙗ҆̀же є҆сѝ слы́шалъ, и҆́миже оу҆кори́ша мѧ̀ послы̀ царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска:

⁷

Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a report, and return to his own country, and he shall fall by the sword in his own land.

⁷

сѐ, а҆́зъ вложꙋ̀ въ него̀ дꙋ́хъ, и҆ оу҆слы́шавъ вѣ́сть возврати́тсѧ во странꙋ̀ свою̀ и҆ паде́тъ мече́мъ на свое́й землѝ.

⁸

So Rabsaces returned, and found the king of the Assyrians besieging Lobna: for he had heard that he had departed from Lachis.

⁸

И҆ возврати́сѧ раѱа́къ и҆ ѡ҆брѣ́те царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йскаго ѡ҆блежа́ща ловнꙋ̀: и҆ оу҆слы́ша ца́рь а҆ссѷрі́йскъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿи́де ѿ лахі́са,

⁹

And Tharaca king of the Ethiopians went forth to attack him. And when he heard it, he turned aside, and sent messengers to Ezekias, saying,

⁹

и҆ и҆зы́де ѳарака̀ ца́рь є҆ѳїо́пскїй воева́ти на́нь: и҆ оу҆слы́шавъ возврати́сѧ и҆ посла̀ послы̀ ко є҆зекі́и, глаго́лѧ:

¹⁰

Thus shall ye say to Ezekias king of Judea, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.

¹⁰

си́це рцы́те є҆зекі́и царю̀ і҆ꙋде́йскꙋ: да не прельща́етъ бг҃ъ тво́й тебѐ, на него́же оу҆пова́ѧ є҆сѝ, глаго́лѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не преда́стсѧ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ въ рꙋ́цѣ царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска:

¹¹

Hast thou not heard what the kings of the Assyrians have done, how they have destroyed the whole earth? and shalt thou be delivered?

¹¹

и҆лѝ не слы́шалъ є҆сѝ ты̀, что̀ сотвори́ша ца́рїе а҆ссѷрі́йстїи, ка́кѡ всю̀ зе́млю погꙋби́ша, и҆ ты́ ли и҆зба́вишисѧ;

¹²

Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them, both Gozan, and Charrhan, and Rapheth, which are in the land of Theemath?

¹²

є҆да̀ и҆зба́виша си́хъ бо́зи ꙗ҆зы́честїи, и҆̀хже погꙋби́ша ѻ҆тцы̀ моѝ, гѡза́нъ и҆ харра́нъ и҆ расе́мъ, и҆̀же сꙋ́ть во странѣ̀ ѳеема́ѳи;

¹³

Where are the kings of Emath? and where is the king of Arphath? and where is the king of the city of Eppharuaim, and of Anagugana?

¹³

гдѣ̀ сꙋ́ть ца́рїе є҆ма́ѳѡвы, и҆ гдѣ̀ а҆рфа́ѳѡвы, и҆ гдѣ̀ гра́да є҆пфарꙋе́ма, а҆нагꙋга́на;

¹⁴

And Ezekias received the letter from the messengers, and read it, and went up to the house of the Lord, and opened it before the Lord.

¹⁴

И҆ взѧ̀ є҆зекі́а кни́гꙋ ѿ послѡ́въ и҆ прочтѐ ю҆̀, и҆ вни́де во хра́мъ гдⷭ҇ень и҆ ѿве́рзе ю҆̀ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ.

¹⁵

And Ezekias prayed to the Lord, saying,

¹⁵

И҆ помоли́сѧ є҆зекі́а ко гдⷭ҇еви, глаго́лѧ:

¹⁶

O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, who sittest upon the cherubs, thou alone art the God of every kingdom of the world: thou hast made heaven and earth.

¹⁶

гдⷭ҇и саваѡ́ѳъ, бж҃е і҆и҃левъ, сѣдѧ́й на херꙋві́мѣхъ, ты̀ є҆сѝ бг҃ъ є҆ди́нъ цр҃ь всѧ́кагѡ ца́рства вселе́нныѧ, ты̀ сотвори́лъ є҆сѝ не́бо и҆ зе́млю:

¹⁷

Incline thine ear, O Lord, hearken, O Lord; open thine eyes, O Lord, look, O Lord: and behold the words of Sennacherim, which he has sent to reproach the living God.

¹⁷

приклонѝ, гдⷭ҇и, оу҆́хо твоѐ, оу҆слы́ши, гдⷭ҇и, ѿве́рзи, гдⷭ҇и, ѻ҆́чи твоѝ, при́зри, гдⷭ҇и, и҆ ви́ждь и҆ слы́ши всѧ̑ словеса̀ сеннахирі̑млѧ, ꙗ҆̀же посла̀ оу҆карѧ́ти бг҃а жива́го:

¹⁸

For of a truth, Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have laid waste the whole world, and the countries thereof,

¹⁸

пои́стиннѣ бо, гдⷭ҇и, пꙋ́стꙋ сотвори́ша ца́рїе а҆ссѷрі́йстїи всю̀ зе́млю и҆ страны̑ и҆́хъ,

¹⁹

and have cast their idols into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; and they have cast them away.

¹⁹

и҆ вверго́ша кꙋмі́ры и҆́хъ во ѻ҆́гнь, не бѣ́ша бо бо́зи, но дѣла̀ рꙋ́къ человѣ́ческихъ, древа̀ и҆ ка́менїе, и҆ погꙋби́ша ѧ҆̀:

²⁰

But now, O Lord our God, deliver us from his hands, that every kingdom of the earth may know that thou art God alone.

²⁰

нн҃ѣ же, гдⷭ҇и бж҃е на́шъ, сп҃си́ ны ѿ рꙋкѝ и҆́хъ, да оу҆вѣ́дѧтъ всѧ̑ ца̑рствїѧ земна̑ѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ є҆сѝ (гдⷭ҇ь) бг҃ъ є҆ди́нъ.

²¹

And Esaias the son of Amos was sent to Ezekias, and said to him, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, I have heard thy prayer to me concerning Sennacherim king of the Assyrians.

²¹

И҆ по́сланъ бы́сть и҆са́їа сы́нъ а҆мѡ́совъ ко є҆зекі́и и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: слы́шахъ, ѡ҆ ни́хже моли́лсѧ є҆сѝ ко мнѣ̀ ѡ҆ сеннахирі́мѣ царѝ а҆ссѷрі́йстѣмъ.

²²

This is the word which God has spoken concerning him; The virgin daughter of Sion has despised thee, and mocked thee; the daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at thee.

²²

Сїѐ сло́во, є҆́же гл҃а ѡ҆ не́мъ бг҃ъ: похꙋ́ли тѧ̀ и҆ порꙋга́сѧ тебѣ̀ дѣви́ца дщѝ сїѡ́нѧ, на тѧ̀ главо́ю покива̀ дщѝ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́млѧ:

²³

Whom hast thou reproached and provoked? and against whom hast thou lifted up thy voice? and hast thou not lifted up thine eyes on high against the Holy One of Israel?

²³

кого̀ оу҆кори́лъ и҆ разгнѣ́валъ є҆сѝ; и҆лѝ къ комꙋ̀ возвы́силъ є҆сѝ гла́съ тво́й, и҆ не воздви́глъ є҆сѝ на высотꙋ̀ ѻ҆че́съ твои́хъ; ко ст҃о́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ!

²⁴

For thou hast reproached the Lord by messengers; for thou hast said, With the multitude of chariots have I ascended to the height of mountains, and to the sides of Libanus; and I have cropped the height of his cedars and the beauty of his cypresses; and I entered into the height of the forest region:

²⁴

ꙗ҆́кѡ посла́ми оу҆кори́лъ є҆сѝ гдⷭ҇а, ты́ бо ре́клъ є҆сѝ: мно́жествомъ колесни́цъ а҆́зъ взыдо́хъ на высотꙋ̀ го́ръ и҆ на послѣ̑днѧѧ лїва́на, и҆ посѣко́хъ высотꙋ̀ ке́дра є҆гѡ̀ и҆ добро́тꙋ кѷпарі́совꙋ, и҆ внидо́хъ въ высотꙋ̀ ча́сти дꙋбра́вныѧ

²⁵

and I have made a bridge, and dried up the waters, and every pool of water.

²⁵

и҆ положи́хъ мо́стъ, и҆ ѡ҆пꙋстоши́хъ во́ды и҆ всѐ собра́нїе водно́е:

²⁶

Hast thou not heard of these things which I did of old? I appointed them from ancient times; but now have I manifested my purpose of desolating nations in their strong holds, and them that dwell in strong cities.

²⁶

не слы́шалъ ли є҆сѝ и҆здре́вле си́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же а҆́зъ сотвори́хъ; ѿ дре́внихъ дні́й совѣща́хъ, нн҃ѣ же показа́хъ ѡ҆пꙋстоши́ти ꙗ҆зы́ки въ тверды́нехъ и҆ живꙋ́щыѧ во тве́рдыхъ градѣ́хъ:

²⁷

I weakened their hands, and they withered; and they became as dry grass on the house-tops, and as grass.

²⁷

ѡ҆пꙋсти́хъ рꙋ́цѣ, и҆ и҆зсхо́ша и҆ бы́ша а҆́ки сꙋ́хо сѣ́но на кро́вѣхъ и҆ а҆́ки тро́скотъ:

²⁸

But now I know thy rest, and thy going out, and thy coming in.

²⁸

нн҃ѣ же поко́й тво́й и҆ и҆схо́дъ тво́й и҆ вхо́дъ тво́й а҆́зъ вѣ́мъ,

²⁹

And thy wrath wherewith thou hast been enraged, and thy rancour has come up to me; therefore I will put a hook in thy nose, and a bit in thy lips, and will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.

²⁹

ꙗ҆́рость же твоѧ̀, є҆́юже разгнѣ́валсѧ є҆сѝ, и҆ ѡ҆горче́нїе твоѐ взы́де ко мнѣ̀, и҆ вложꙋ̀ броздꙋ̀ въ нѡ́здри твоѧ̑ и҆ оу҆здꙋ̀ во оу҆ста̀ твоѧ̑, и҆ возвращꙋ́ тѧ пꙋте́мъ, и҆́мже є҆сѝ прише́лъ.

³⁰

And this shall be a sign to thee, Eat this year what thou hast sown; and the second year that which is left: and the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.

³⁰

Сїе́ же тебѣ̀ зна́менїе: ꙗ҆́ждь сегѡ̀ лѣ́та, є҆́же є҆сѝ всѣ́ѧлъ, а҆ во второ́е лѣ́то, є҆́же ѿ себє̀ расте́тъ: а҆ въ тре́тїе насѣ́ѧвше по́жнете и҆ насадитѐ вїногра́ды и҆ снѣ́сте плоды̀ и҆́хъ:

³¹

And they that are left in Judea shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward:

³¹

и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ ѡ҆ста́вшїи во і҆ꙋде́и, прорастѧ́тъ коре́нїе до́лꙋ и҆ сотворѧ́тъ въ ве́рхъ пло́дъ,

³²

for out of Jerusalem there shall be a remnant, and the saved ones out of mount Sion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.

³²

ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма бꙋ́дꙋтъ ѡ҆ста́вшїисѧ и҆ спа́сшїисѧ ѿ горы̀ сїѡ́ни: ре́вность гдⷭ҇а саваѡ́ѳа сотвори́тъ сїѧ̑.

³³

Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of the Assyrians, He shall not enter into this city, nor cast a weapon against it, nor bring a shield against it, nor make a rampart round it.

³³

Сегѡ̀ ра́ди та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь на царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска: не вни́детъ въ се́й гра́дъ, нижѐ пꙋ́ститъ на́нь стрѣлꙋ̀, нижѐ возложи́тъ на́нь щита̀, нижѐ ѡ҆гради́тъ ѡ҆́крестъ є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆гражде́нїѧ:

³⁴

But by the way by which he came, by it shall he return, and shall not enter into this city: thus saith the Lord.

³⁴

но пꙋте́мъ, и҆́мже прїи́де, тѣ́мже возврати́тсѧ, и҆ во гра́дъ се́й не вни́детъ. Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь:

³⁵

I will protect this city to save it for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

³⁵

защищꙋ̀ гра́дъ се́й, є҆́же спⷭ҇тѝ є҆го̀ менє̀ ра́ди и҆ ра́ди даві́да раба̀ моегѡ̀.

³⁶

And the angel of the Lord went forth, and slew out of the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand: and they arose in the morning and found all these bodies dead.

³⁶

И҆ и҆зы́де а҆́гг҃лъ гдⷭ҇ень и҆ и҆збѝ ѿ полка̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска сто̀ ѻ҆́смьдесѧтъ пѧ́ть ты́сѧщъ. И҆ воста́вше заꙋ́тра, ѡ҆брѣто́ша всѧ̑ тѣлеса̀ мє́ртва.

³⁷

And Sennacherim king of the Assyrians turned and departed, and dwelt in Nineve.

³⁷

И҆ ѿи́де возвра́щьсѧ сеннахирі́мъ ца́рь а҆ссѷрі́йскїй и҆ всели́сѧ во нїнеѵі́и.

³⁸

And while he was worshipping Nasarach his country's god in the house, Adramelech and Sarasar his sons smote him with swords; and they escaped into Armenia: and Asordan his son reigned in his stead.

³⁸

И҆ внегда̀ покланѧ́тисѧ є҆мꙋ̀ въ домꙋ̀ насара́хꙋ ѻ҆течествонача́лникꙋ своемꙋ̀, а҆драмеле́хъ и҆ сараса́ръ сы́нове є҆гѡ̀ оу҆би́ста є҆го̀ мечьмѝ, са́ми же оу҆бѣжа́ста во а҆рме́нїю. И҆ воцари́сѧ а҆сорда́нъ сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀ вмѣ́стѡ є҆гѡ̀.
