¹

Thus saith the Lord, Go and procure for thyself a linen girdle, and put it about thy loins, and let it not be put in water.

¹

Си'це рече г~ь къ мн^њ, и^ди` и^ съдръжи себњ чресленикъ л#ня'ныи, и^ препояши того на чре'слњхъ твои^хъ, и^ в# во'дђ не вно'сиши того.

²

So I procured the girdle according to the word of the Lord, and put it about my loins.

²

и^ съдръжа'хъ чресленикъ по словеси` гн~ю, и^ положи'хъ ѓ^крsтъ чре'слъ мои^хъ.

³

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

³

и^ бы'сть сло'во гн~е къ мн^њ втори'цею рекђщи,

⁴

Take the girdle that is upon thy loins, and arise, and go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.

⁴

въꙁми` чресленикъ, и^же съдръжа'лъ е^си и^же е^сть ѓ%крsтъ чреслъ твои^хъ. и^ въста'в# и^ди` къ е^фра'тњ, и^ съкры'и того въ рас#сњ'линњ ка'мен#нњ.

⁵

So I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as the Lord commanded me.

⁵

і^ и^до'хᲆ и^ скрыX того въ е^фра'тњ, ја%ко ꙁаповњда мн^њ г~ь”

⁶

And it came to pass after many days, that the Lord said to me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take thence the girdle, which I commanded thee to hide there.

⁶

И$ бы'сᲄь по днехъ мно'ѕXњ, рече г~ь къ мнњ. въста'ни і^ и^ди` къ е^фра'тњ, и^ възми` эTтђдђ чре'слениk е^гоже ꙁаповњдахъ тебњ да съкры'е^ши и& тамо.

⁷

So I went to the river Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle out of the place where I had buried it: and, behold, it was rotten, utterly good for nothing.

⁷

і^ и^до'хъ къ е^фра'тњ и^ копа'хъ, и^ вꙁя'хъ чресленикъ эT мњста и^дњже съкры'хъ е^го” И$ с^е и^ꙁгни'лъ чре'сленикъ, та'ко ја%ко ниначто'же бы'ти потребнђ е^мђ”

⁸

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thus saith the Lord,

⁸

И$ бысть слово гн~е къ мнњ рекђщи, сїя рече г~ь.

⁹

Thus will I mar the pride of Juda, and the pride of Jerusalem;

⁹

та'ко согни'ти сътворю` горды'ню і^ё'динђ, и^ горды'ню і^ерsлі'ма мно'гђ. людїи сихъ стропти'выхъ

¹⁰

even this great pride of the men that will not hearken to my words, and have gone after strange gods, to serve them, and to worship them: and they shall be as this girdle, which can be used for nothing.

¹⁰

и^же не хотя'тъ послђшати словесъ мои^хъ, и^ хо'дятъ въ стропти'въстве срDца свое^го” И$доша же по боѕњхъ чюжихъ, да слђжатъ и^мъ да покланя'ются и^мъ. и^ бђдђтъ ја%ко чресленикъ тои и^же никче'мђ потре'бенъ бњ`.

¹¹

For as a girdle cleaves about the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave to myself the house of Israel, and the whole house of Juda; that they might be to me a famous people, and a praise, and a glory: but they did not hearken to me.

¹¹

ꙁане` ја%ко придрᲆжиTся чресленикъ къ чреслоM мђжа, та'ко съвокђпи'хъ мн^њ весь до'мъ і^и^л~евъ и^ весь до'мᲆ і^ё'динъ, реq г~ь. да бђдTђ мн^њ въ лю'ди и^ въ и^мя и^ въ хвалђ` и^ въ сла'вђ, и^ не послђшаша.

¹²

And thou shalt say to this people, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and it shall come to pass, if they shall say to thee, Shall we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine? that thou shalt say to them,

¹²

сего ра'ди речеши к нимъ словеса` сїя, та'ко реq г~ь б~ъ і^и^л~евъ. вся'къ сосђдъ и^сполнится вина`. и^ рекђтъ к тебњ, е^да ли не вњдњхомъ, и^же вся'къ сосђдъ и^сполнится вина`.

¹³

Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will fill the inhabitants of this land, and their kings the sons of David that sit upon their throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and Juda and all the dwellers in Jerusalem, with strong drink.

¹³

и^ рече'ши к нимъ, сїя рече г~ь. с^е а^ꙁъ и^спо'лню сихъ ѓ^бита'телїи земли` сеи, и^ цр~и иже сњдя'тъ эT колњна двд~ва на прsтлњ е^го. и^ сщ~енницы и^ прoрцы и^ всњхъ ѓ^бита'телїи і^ерsлима пїяnствомъ.

¹⁴

And I will scatter them a man and his brother, and their fathers and their sons together: I will not have compassion, saith the Lord, and I will not spare, neither will I pity to save them from destruction.

¹⁴

и^сторгнђ и^хъ мђжа эT бра'та е^го, и^ эTц~ы и^ сн~ы в#кђпњ, реq г~ь. не прощђ не ѓ^сла'блю, и^ не ё^млрsдюся, е^же не расторгнђти и^хъ.

¹⁵

Hear ye, and give ear, and be not proud: for the Lord has spoken.

¹⁵

слы'шите ё^ши'ма и^ внемлите, не хощи'те въꙁдви'гнђтися ја%ко г~ь гл~алъ е^сть

¹⁶

Give glory to the Lord your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and ye shall wait for light, and behold the shadow of death, and they shall be brought into darkness.

¹⁶

дади'те г~ђ б~ђ ва'шемђ сла'вђ преже даже не помръкнетъ, и^ преже даже не прет#кнђтся но'ѕњ ваши гора'хъ ра'ныхъ. пожди'те свњта, и^ поло'житъ ю& в сњнь смр~ти и^ въ мра'къ.

¹⁷

But if ye will not hearken, your soul shall weep in secret because of pride, and your eyes shall pour down tears, because the Lord's flock is sorely bruised.

¹⁷

да а'ще того не послђшае^те в# та'инњ. попла'четъ дш~а моа эT лица` гор#дыни, и^ пла'ча восплачеT і^ и^ꙁведетъ ѓ'ко мое слеꙁђ, и^же пои^мано е^сть ста'до гн~е.

¹⁸

Say ye to the king and the princes, Humble yourselves, and sit down; for your crown of glory is removed from your head.

¹⁸

рцы` цр~ю и^ влDцњ, смири'теся и^ ся'дњте на ꙁемли`, ја%ко взя'тся эT главы` ва'шея вњнецъ сла'вы ва'шея.

¹⁹

The cities toward the south were shut, and there was none to open them: Juda is removed into captivity, they have suffered a complete removal.

¹⁹

гра'ды ю%жные затво'рени сђть, и^ нњсть и^же ѓ^тво'ритъ. преведенᲆ е^сть весь і^ё'да преселе'нїемъ съвръше'номъ.

²⁰

Lift up thine eyes, O Jerusalem, and behold them that come from the north; where is the flock that was given thee, the sheep of thy glory?

²⁰

въздви'гнњте ѓ'чи ва'ши и^ ви'дите приходя'щаа эT сњвера. гдњ` ста'до да'ное тебњ, ско'тъ нарочи'тыи твои.

²¹

What wilt thou say when they shall visit thee, for thou didst teach them lessons for rule against thyself; shall not pangs seize thee as a woman in travail?

²¹

чт^о речеши е^гда посᲇтиT т^я ты` б^о наё^чи'лъ е^си иX на' тя, и^ наё^чи'лъ на главђ твою. е^да ли не въспрїимђтъ т^я бо'леꙁни ја%ко женђ` родя'щђ.

²²

And if thou shouldest say in thine heart, Wherefore have these things happened to me? Because of the abundance of thine iniquity have thy skirts been discovered, that thine heels might be exposed.

²²

а^ще ли рече'ши въ срDцы твое^мъ, почт^о прїидо'ша ми сїя. ради множествъ беꙁако'нїя твое^го эTкровена е^сть сра'мная твоя, ѓ^сквернены сђть стопы` твоя.

²³

If the Ethiopian shall change his skin, or the leopardess her spots, then shall ye be able to do good, having learnt evil.

²³

а^ще можетъ премњни'ти е^фїѓ'плянинъ ко'жђ свою, и^л^и ры'сь пестроты` своа. и^ вы` мо'жете бл~готвори'ти, понеy наё^чи'стеся ѕлђ`.

²⁴

So I scattered them as sticks carried by the wind into the wilderness.

²⁴

и^ разрњю и^хъ ја%ко сте'блїе, и^же вњтроM въсхитиTся въ пђсты'ню.

²⁵

Thus is thy lot, and the reward of your disobedience to me, saith the Lord; as thou didst forget me, and trust in lies,

²⁵

сїи жре'бїи твои, и^ ча'сть мњры твоеа эT мене, реq г~ь. и^же ꙁабы` м^я и^ надњяся на лжђ`.

²⁶

I also will expose thy skirts upon thy face, and thy shame shall be seen;

²⁶

тњмже и^ а'ꙁъ ѓ^бнажи'хъ бедры твоа проти'вђ лица твое^го,

²⁷

thine adultery also, and thy neighing, and the looseness of thy fornication: on the hills and in the fields I have seen thine abominations. Woe to thee, O Jerusalem, for thou hast not been purified so as to follow me; how long yet shall it be?

²⁷

и^ яви'ся срамота` твоя на гораX, и^ на селаX ви'дњх# ме'рꙁости твоа, и^ любодᲇянїа твоа и^ ра'ненїе твое, срамо'тное блђженїа твое^го. го'ре тебњ і^ерsлим#, ја^ко не ѓ^чи'стишися по мнњ` толь бо'рꙁо”
