¹

And Elius further continued, and said,

¹

Прилож# же е^ще` е^лиё'съ и^ реq”

²

Wait for me yet a little while, that I may teach thee: for there is yet speech in me.

²

пожDи м^и ма'ло е^ще, да т^я наё^чю. е^ще б^о ё^ мене е^сᲄь бесњда,

³

Having fetched my knowledge from afar, and according to my works,

³

прїимъ хи'трость мою` эT да'леча. дњлы же мои^ми пра'вдђ рекђ вои%стиннђ,

⁴

I will speak just things truly, and thou shalt not unjustly receive unjust words.

⁴

и^ не неправедны гл~ы, безъ пра'вды разђмњ'еши.

⁵

But know that the Lord will not cast off an innocent man: being mighty in strength of wisdom,

⁵

вњждь же ја%ко г~ь не эTкры'етъ ѕла'го,

⁶

he will not by any means save alive the ungodly: and he will grant the judgment of the poor.

⁶

си'ленъ крњпостїю срDца нечести'выX не жи'ва съториT и^ сђдъ ни'щиM дасть.

⁷

He will not turn away his eyes from the righteous, but they shall be with kings on the throne: and he will establish them in triumph, and they shall be exalted.

⁷

не эTи'меT эT прав#диваго ѓ%чїю свое'ю, и^ съ цр~и на прsтл# посадиT и&, и^ на побњдђ въꙁнесеT е^го”

⁸

But they that are bound in fetters shall be holden in cords of poverty.

⁸

связани в рђчныхъ ё%ꙁахъ, ја^ти бђдђтᲆ ю%жемъ нищеты.

⁹

And he shall recount to them their works, and their transgressions, for such will act with violence.

⁹

и^ вᲆзвњститъ иM дњло иX, и^ прегрњшенїе иX ја^ко ё^крњпяTся.

¹⁰

But he will hearken to the righteous: and he has said that they shall turn from unrighteousness.

¹⁰

н^о правдиваго ё^слы'шиT, и^ реq ја%ко ѓ^братяTся эT непра'вды”

¹¹

If they should hear and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in honour.

¹¹

А$ще ё^бо ё^слы'шаT и^ порабоᲄаюT сконча'ютъ дн~и своя въ бл~ꙁњ, и^ лњта своя` въ бл~голњпотњ.

¹²

But he preserves not the ungodly; because they are not willing to know the Lord, and because when reproved they were disobedient.

¹²

нечести'выхъ же не сп~сетъ, ꙁане` не хотњша вњдњти г~а, и^ ꙁане же ё^чи'ми и^ непослђшли'ви бњша.

¹³

And the hypocrites in heart will array wrath against themselves; they will not cry, because he has bound them.

¹³

и^ лице`мњри срDцемъ възмђтяT ја%рость, и^ не въꙁъпїютъ ја%ко связа и^хъ”

¹⁴

Therefore let their soul die in youth, and their life be wounded by messengers of death.

¹⁴

да ё'мре'тъ въ ю'ности дш~а и^хъ, жи'тїе же и^хъ бодо'мо а^гг~лы”

¹⁵

Because they afflicted the weak and helpless: and he will vindicate the judgment of the meek.

¹⁵

зане же ѓ^скорби'ша недђжна и^ не'мощна, сђд# же кро'ткыхъ эTвръжеT.

¹⁶

And he has also enticed thee out of the mouth of the enemy:

¹⁶

и^ поне'же пресели'л# т^я эT ё'стъ врагъ, бе'ꙁDна прои^тїе поD не'ю, и^ сни'де трапе'ꙁа твоя` и^спо'лнь тђ'ка,

¹⁷

there is a deep gulf and a rushing stream beneath it, and thy table came down full of fatness. Judgment shall not fail from the righteous;

¹⁷

не ѓ^скђдње^тъ же пра'ведныX сђдъ,

¹⁸

but there shall be wrath upon the ungodly, by reason of the ungodliness of the bribes which they received for iniquities.

¹⁸

ја%росᲄь же на нечести'выя бђ'детъ. нечестїя ра'ди да'ровъ и^хъ, и^хже прїима'хђ на непра'вдњ”

¹⁹

Let not thy mind willingly turn thee aside from the petition of the feeble that are in distress.

¹⁹

да не ё^клониTся во'лею ё%мъ, мольба въ бњдњ сђщемъ немощнымъ” и^ всњхъ крњпящиXся крњпости

²⁰

And draw not forth all the mighty men by night, so that the people should go up instead of them.

²⁰

не привлеци, вꙁыити лю'демъ в ниX мњсто,

²¹

But take heed lest thou do that which is wrong: for of this thou hast made choice because of poverty.

²¹

н^о съхрани'ся” не съдњи ѕл^а, эT сихъ б^о эTтятся эT нищеты.

²²

Behold, the Mighty One shall prevail by his strength: for who is powerful as he is?

²²

и^ с^е крњпкїи ё^держиT крњпостїю своею. кт^о бо е^сть а^ки то'и си'ленъ”

²³

And who is he that examines his works? or who can say, He has wrought injustice?

²³

Кт^о е^сть пыта'яи дњ'лъ е^го, и^ли кт^о рекїи съдњя непра'вдђ”

²⁴

Remember that his works are great beyond those which men have attempted.

²⁴

Помяни ја%ко ве'лїа дњ'ла е^го сђть, и^миже владњша мђжїе”

²⁵

Every man has seen in himself, how many mortals are wounded.

²⁵

Вся'къ чл~къ ви'дњ ѓ%ное, ја%ко б^о до'ми сђть чл~цы”

²⁶

Behold, the Mighty One is great, and we shall not know him: the number of his years is even infinite.

²⁶

И$ с^е крњ'пкїи вели'кїи, не ё^вњмы число` лњтъ е^го бес конца`”

²⁷

And the drops of rain are numbered by him, and shall be poured out in rain to form a cloud.

²⁷

Четны же е^мђ сђть ка'пля дожDевныа і^ и^ꙁлњ'ются до'ждемъ въ ѓ%блакъ,

²⁸

The ancient heavens shall flow, and the clouds overshadow innumerable mortals: he has fixed a time to cattle, and they know the order of rest. Yet by all these things thy understanding is not astonished, neither is thy mind disturbed in thy body.

²⁸

потекђтъ ѓ^бетша'нїя ѓ^сњни'ша же ѓ%блацы на премно'ги гро'мы” Вре'мя постави скотђ. вњ'дятъ же ло'жа чи'нъ” ѓ^ всемъ семъ не диви'т# ли ти ся ё%мъ, ни и^ꙁмњня'ет# ти ся срDце эT тњ'ла”

²⁹

And though one should understand the outspreadings of the clouds, or the measure of his tabernacle;

²⁹

А$ще разђмњ'еши эT просте'ртїя ѓ%блачнаго и^ равеньство скљ=нїя е^го,

³⁰

behold he will stretch his bow against him, and he covers the bottom of the sea.

³⁰

с^е простира'етъ на ню` свњтъ” И$ ко'ренїя мо'рская покры`,

³¹

For by them he will judge the nations: he will give food to him that has strength.

³¹

тњми б^о сђ'дитъ лю'демъ, да'сть пи'щђ могђщемђ”

³²

He has hidden the light in his hands, and given charge concerning it to the interposing cloud.

³²

И$ на рђкђ покры` свњтъ, и^ ꙁаповњда ѓ^ не'и стрњта'ющемђ.

³³

The Lord will declare concerning this to his friend: but there is a portion also for unrighteousness.

³³

въꙁвњсти'тъ зань дрђгови свое^мђ тва'рь и^ ѓ^ непра'вдњ”
