But Job answered and said,

¹

Ѿвѣща́въ же і҆́ѡвъ, речѐ:

²

To whom dost thou attach thyself, or whom art thou going to assist? is it not he that has much strength, and he who has a strong arm?

²

комꙋ̀ прилѣжи́ши, и҆лѝ комꙋ̀ хо́щеши помога́ти; не семꙋ́ ли, є҆мꙋ́же мно́га крѣ́пость и҆ є҆мꙋ́же мы́шца крѣпка̀ є҆́сть;

³

To whom hast thou given counsel? is it not to him who has all wisdom? whom wilt thou follow? is it not one who has the greatest power?

³

Комꙋ̀ совѣ́тъ да́лъ є҆сѝ; не є҆мꙋ́же ли всѧ̀ премꙋ́дрость; Кого̀ пожене́ши; не є҆мꙋ́же ли преве́лїѧ си́ла;

⁴

To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose breath is it that has come forth from thee?

⁴

Комꙋ̀ возвѣсти́лъ є҆сѝ глаго́лы; дыха́нїе же чїе́ є҆сть и҆сходѧ́щее и҆з̾ тебє̀;

⁵

Shall giants be born from under the water and the inhabitants thereof?

⁵

Є҆да̀ и҆споли́ни родѧ́тсѧ под̾ водо́ю и҆ сосѣ́дми є҆ѧ̀;

⁶

Hell is naked before him, and destruction has no covering.

⁶

На́гъ а҆́дъ пред̾ ни́мъ, и҆ нѣ́сть покрыва́ла па́гꙋбѣ.

⁷

He stretches out the north wind upon nothing, and he upon nothing hangs the earth;

⁷

Простира́ѧй сѣ́веръ ни на че́мже, повѣ́шаѧй зе́млю ни наче́мже,

⁸

binding water in his clouds, and the cloud is not rent under it.

⁸

свѧзꙋ́ѧй во́дꙋ на ѡ҆́блацѣхъ свои́хъ, и҆ не расто́ржесѧ ѡ҆́блакъ под̾ не́ю:

⁹

He keeps back the face of his throne, stretching out his cloud upon it.

⁹

держа́й лицѐ престо́ла, простира́ѧ над̾ ни́мъ ѡ҆́блакъ сво́й:

¹⁰

He has encompassed the face of the water by an appointed ordinance, until the end of light and darkness.

¹⁰

повелѣ́нїе ѡ҆крꙋжѝ на лицѐ воды̀ да́же до сконча́нїѧ свѣ́та со тмо́ю.

¹¹

The pillars of heaven are prostrate and astonished at his rebuke.

¹¹

Столпѝ небе́снїи простро́шасѧ и҆ оу҆жасо́шасѧ ѿ запреще́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀.

¹²

He has calmed the sea with his might, and by his wisdom the whale has been overthrown.

¹²

Крѣ́постїю оу҆кротѝ мо́ре, и҆ хи́тростїю є҆гѡ̀ низложе́нъ бы́сть ки́тъ:

¹³

And the barriers of heaven fear him, and by a command he has slain the apostate dragon.

¹³

верєи́ же небє́сныѧ оу҆боѧ́шасѧ є҆гѡ̀: повелѣ́нїемъ же оу҆мертвѝ ѕмі́а ѿстꙋ́пника.

¹⁴

Behold, these are parts of his way; and we will hearken to him at the least intimation of his word: but the strength of his thunder who knows, when he shall employ it?

¹⁴

Сѐ, сїѧ̑ ча̑сти пꙋтѝ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ ѡ҆ ка́пли сло́ва оу҆слы́шимъ въ не́мъ: си́лꙋ же гро́ма є҆гѡ̀ кто̀ оу҆вѣ́да, когда̀ сотвори́тъ;
