¹

O Lord, Father and Governor of my life, leave me not to their counsels, and let me not fall by them.

¹

Ги~ эTч~е и^ влDко живота мое^го, не ѓ^ста'ви мене въ совњтњ и^хъ, и^ не да'ждь ми впа'стися в ня`”

²

Who will set scourges over my thoughts, and the discipline of wisdom over mine heart? that they spare me not for mine ignorances, and it pass not by my sins:

²

Кт^о въꙁло'житъ на промышле'нїе мое ра'ны, и^ на срDце мое наказа'нїе премђдрости. да ѓ^ нераꙁђмњ'нїи мое^мъ не пощадя'тся, и^ да не ја^вя'тся грњси и^хъ”

³

lest mine ignorances increase, and my sins abound to my destruction, and I fall before mine adversaries, and mine enemy rejoice over me, whose hope is far from thy mercy.

³

ЈА/ко да не ё^мно'жатся невњдњ'нїя моя, и^ грњси мои премно'ѕи да не бђ'дђтъ. и^ падђся преD сђпоста'ты, и^ порадђетъ ми ся вра'гъ мои”

⁴

O Lord, Father and God of my life, give me not a proud look.

⁴

Ги~ эTч~е и^ б~е живота мое^го, не да'жDь похотњ'нїя ѓ^чи'ма мои^ма, и^ въжделњнїе эTврати эT мене.

⁵

Turn away concupiscence from me.

⁵

чре'вђё^го'дїя и^ сладосђщїя да не ѓ^бы'имђтъ м^я, и^ бестђ'днњи дш~и не преда'жDь мене”

⁶

Let not the greediness of the belly nor lust of the flesh take hold of me; and give me not over into an impudent mind.

⁶

Послђшаите ча'да, храня'и бо ся не поги'бнетъ.

⁷

Hear, O ye children, the discipline of the mouth: he that keepeth it shall never be taken in his lips.

⁷

ё^стнама свои^ма порђга'нъ бђ'детъ грњшникъ и^ клеве'тникъ, и^ го'рдїи съблаꙁня'тся ѓ^ ня”

⁸

The sinner shall be left in his foolishness: both the evil speaker and the proud shall fall thereby.

⁸

въ ꙁаклина'нїе не прилага'и ё%стъ свои^хъ,

⁹

Accustom not thy mouth to swearing; neither use thyself to the naming of the Holy One.

⁹

и^ не клени'ся и^менемъ ст~ымъ”

¹⁰

For as a servant that is continually beaten shall not be without a blue mark: so he that sweareth and nameth God continually shall not be faultless.

¹⁰

ЈА/коже б^о ра'бъ пыта'емъ прsно эT ра'нъ не ё^мали'тся, та'коже ꙁаклина'яися и^менемъ ст~ымъ эT грњха не ѓ^чистится”

¹¹

A man that useth much swearing shall be filled with iniquity, and the plague shall never depart from his house: if he shall offend, his sin shall be upon him: and if he acknowledge not his sin, he maketh a double offence: and if he swear in vain, he shall not be innocent, but his house shall be full of calamities.

¹¹

Мђжъ кленыися мно'га и^спо'лнится беꙁако'нїя, и^ не эTи^меTся эT домђ е^го ра'на”

¹²

There is a word that is clothed about with death: God grant that it be not found in the heritage of Jacob; for all such things shall be far from the godly, and they shall not wallow in their sins.

¹²

а^ще съгрњшиT грњхъ е^го на не'мᲆ. и^ а'ще преꙁритъ сђгђбо съгрњшитъ,

¹³

Use not thy mouth to intemperate swearing, for therein is the word of sin.

¹³

и^ а'ще въ тще кля'ся не ѓ^правди'тся. и^спо'лниTся до'мъ е^го нанесе'нїи.

¹⁴

Remember thy father and thy mother, when thou sittest among great men. Be not forgetful before them, and so thou by thy custom become a fool, and wish that thou hadst not been born, and curse the day of thy nativity.

¹⁴

е^сть бесњда ѓ^бличе'на смр~тїю, да не ѓ^бря'щеTся в наслњ'дїи і^а'ковли.

¹⁵

The man that is accustomed to opprobrious words will never be reformed all the days of his life.

¹⁵

эT бл~говњрныX б^о вс^е с^е эTстђпитъ, и^ въ грњхи не въпадђтся.

¹⁶

Two sorts of men multiply sin, and the third will bring wrath: a hot mind is as a burning fire, it will never be quenched till it be consumed: a fornicator in the body of his flesh will never cease till he hath kindled a fire.

¹⁶

в ненакаꙁа'нїи неѓ^бличнњ не наста'ви ё%стъ свои^хъ, е^сть б^о в немъ мы'сль грᲇха.

¹⁷

All bread is sweet to a whoremonger, he will not leave off till he die.

¹⁷

помяни эTц~а свое^го и^ мт~рь свою, посрњди б^о вельмо'жъ сњди'ши”

¹⁸

A man that breaketh wedlock, saying thus in his heart, Who seeth me? I am compassed about with darkness, the walls cover me, and no body seeth me; what need I to fear? the most High will not remember my sins:

¹⁸

е^гда ка'ко ꙁабђдешися преD ни'ми, и^ ѓ^бы'чаемъ своиM ѓ^бђя'еши. и^ похо'щеши ја%ко а^ще не бы ся роди'лъ, и^ дн~ь рожде'нїя твое^го не проклина'и.

¹⁹

such a man only feareth the eyes of men, and knoweth not that the eyes of the Lord are ten thousand times brighter than the sun, beholding all the ways of men, and considering the most secret parts.

¹⁹

чл~къ ѓ^быча'яся словесы поноше'нїя, въ всњхъ дн~ехъ не и%мать накаꙁа'нъ бы'ти.

²⁰

He knew all things ere ever they were created; so also after they were perfected he looked upon them all.

²⁰

дв^а ви'ды ё^мно'жаютъ грњхи, и^ тре'тїи наво'дитъ гнњ'въ”

²¹

This man shall be punished in the streets of the city, and where he suspecteth not he shall be taken.

²¹

дш~а те'пла ја%ко ѓ%гнь горя`, не ё^га'снетъ до'ндеже и^сты'нетъ”

²²

Thus shall it go also with the wife that leaveth her husband, and bringeth in an heir by another.

²²

Чл~къ блђ'денъ тњ'лоM пло'ти свое^я, не преста'нетъ до'н#деже въж#жетъ ѓ%гнь”

²³

For first, she hath disobeyed the law of the most High; and secondly, she hath trespassed against her own husband; and thirdly, she hath played the whore in adultery, and brought children by another man.

²³

Чл~кђ блDђнђ всякъ хлњбъ сладокъ, не преста'неT дондеже ё%мретъ”

²⁴

She shall be brought out into the congregation, and inquisition shall be made of her children.

²⁴

Чл~къ слазя'и съ ѓ%дра свое^го, гл~я дш~и свое'и, кт^о м^я ви'дитъ.

²⁵

Her children shall not take root, and her branches shall bring forth no fruit.

²⁵

тма` ѓ%крsтъ мене, и^ стњны ꙁастђпяT м^я. и^ никтоy м^я ви'дитъ, чт^о страшђся, грXњ мои^хъ не въспомянетъ вышнїи”

²⁶

She shall leave her memory to be cursed, and her reproach shall not be blotted out.

²⁶

и^ ѓ'чи чл~честїи страхъ е^го.

²⁷

And they that remain shall know that there is nothing better than the fear of the Lord, and that there is nothing sweeter than to take heed unto the commandments of the Lord.

²⁷

и^ не раꙁђмᲇ ја%ко ѓ%чи гн~и тма'ми свњтлᲇиши слн~ца е^ста`”
