| For great are thy judgments, and cannot be expressed: therefore unnurtured souls have erred. | Вели́цы бо сꙋ́ть сꙋдѝ твоѝ, (гдⷭ҇и,) и҆ неизглаго́ланни: сегѡ̀ ра́ди ненака̑занныѧ дꙋ́ши заблꙋди́ша. |

| For when unrighteous men thought to oppress the holy nation; they being shut up in their houses, the prisoners of darkness, and fettered with the bonds of a long night, lay there exiled from the eternal providence. | Возмнѣ́вше бо наси́льствовати ꙗ҆зы́къ ст҃ы́й беззако́ннїи, оу҆́зницы тмы̀ и҆ до́лгою но́щїю свѧ́зани, заключе́ни под̾ кро́вы, бѣглецы̀ вѣ́чнагѡ провѣ́дѣнїѧ лежа́ша. |

| For while they supposed to lie hid in their secret sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfulness, being horribly astonished, and troubled with strange apparitions. | Оу҆таи́тисѧ бо мнѧ́ще въ сокрове́нныхъ грѣсѣ́хъ, мра́чнымъ забве́нїѧ покрыва́ломъ расточе́ни бы́ша, оу҆жаса́ющесѧ лю́тѣ и҆ страши́лищами возмꙋще́ни: |

| For neither might the corner that held them keep them from fear: but noises as of waters falling down sounded about them, and sad visions appeared unto them with heavy countenances. | ниже́ бо содержа́й и҆̀хъ верте́пъ без̾ стра́ха сохранѝ, шꙋ́мы же сходѧ́ще возмꙋща́хꙋ и҆̀хъ, и҆ привидѣ̑нїѧ дрѧ̑хлаѧ печа́льными ли́цами ꙗ҆влѧ́хꙋсѧ. |

| No power of the fire might give them light: neither could the bright flames of the stars endure to lighten that horrible night. | И҆ ѻ҆́гненнаѧ оу҆́бѡ ни є҆ди́на си́ла можа́ше ѡ҆свѣща́ти, нижѐ ѕвѣ́здъ свѣ́тлїи пла́менїе просвѣти́ти можа́хꙋ въ тꙋ̀ но́щь стра́шнꙋю. |

|
| Only there appeared unto them a fire kindled of itself, very dreadful: for being much terrified, they thought the things which they saw to be worse than the sight they saw not. | Ꙗ҆влѧ́шесѧ же и҆̀мъ то́кмѡ внеза́пный ѻ҆́гнь стра́ха и҆спо́лнь: оу҆страша́еми же неви́димымъ ѻ҆́нымъ призра́комъ, мнѧ́хꙋ гѡ́ршаѧ бы́ти ви̑димаѧ. |

|
| As for the illusions of art magic, they were put down, and their vaunting in wisdom was reproved with disgrace. | Волше́бнагѡ же хꙋдо́жества предлежа́хꙋ посмѣѧ̑нїѧ, и҆ ѡ҆ премꙋ́дрости велича́нїѧ ѡ҆бличе́нїе оу҆кори́зненно: |

|
| For they, that promised to drive away terrors and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of fear, worthy to be laughed at. | ѡ҆бѣща́ющїисѧ бо и҆згна́ти стра́хи и҆ смꙋщє́нїѧ ѿ дꙋшѝ болѧ́щїѧ, сі́и посмѣѧ́телнымъ стра́хомъ болѧ́хꙋ. |

|
| For though no terrible thing did fear them; yet being scared with beasts that passed by, and hissing of serpents, | И҆́бо а҆́ще и҆ ничто́же и҆̀хъ мѧте́жное оу҆страша́ше, ѕвѣре́й прехо́дами и҆ ѕмїє́въ звизда́ньми подви́жени погиба́хꙋ тре́петни, и҆ а҆́ера ѿню́дъ неизбѣ́жнагѡ ѿрица́ющесѧ ви́дѣти. |
|

|
| they died for fear, denying that they saw the air, which could of no side be avoided. | Боѧзли́ваѧ бо ѕло́ба, свои́мъ свидѣ́телствомъ ѡ҆сꙋжда́ема, вы́нꙋ прїе́млетъ во оу҆́мъ лю̑таѧ, содержи́ма со́вѣстїю. |
|

|

|
| For wickedness, condemned by her own witness, is very timorous, and being pressed with conscience, always forecasteth grievous things. | Ничто́же бо є҆́сть стра́хъ, то́кмѡ лише́нїе по́мощей сꙋ́щихъ ѿ помышле́нїѧ. |
|
12
|
12
|
| For fear is nothing else but a betraying of the succours which reason offereth. | Внꙋ́трь же ме́нше сꙋ́щее ча́ѧнїе, бо́лшее мни́тъ невѣ́дѣнїе вины̀ подаю́щїѧ мꙋ́кꙋ. |
|

|

|
| And the expectation from within, being less, counteth the ignorance more than the cause which bringeth the torment. | А҆ и҆̀же въ немощнꙋ́ю пои́стиннѣ но́щь, и҆ ѿ немощна́гѡ а҆́да верте́пѡвъ наше́дшꙋю, сно́мъ тѣ́мже спѧ́щїи, |
|

|

|
| But they sleeping the same sleep that night, which was indeed intolerable, and which came upon them out of the bottoms of inevitable hell, | ѻ҆́во оу҆́бѡ страши́лищами мечта́нїй гони́ми бѧ́хꙋ, ѻ҆́во же дꙋшѝ и҆зчеза́хꙋ преда́нїемъ: внеза́пный бо и҆̀мъ и҆ неча́ѧнный стра́хъ на́йде. |
|

|
| were partly vexed with monstrous apparitions, and partly fainted, their heart failing them: for a sudden fear, and not looked for, came upon them. | Пото́мъ та́кѡ, кто́ либо когда̀ бѣ̀ ѻ҆на́мѡ, низпады́й хранѧ́шесѧ въ темни́цѣ без̾ желѣ́за заключе́нъ: |
|
16
|

|
| So then whosoever there fell down was straitly kept, shut up in a prison without iron bars. | а҆́ще бо земледѣ́латель кто̀ бы́сть, и҆лѝ па́стырь, и҆лѝ трꙋдѡ́въ пꙋсты́нныхъ дѣ́латель, пред̾ѧ́тъ бы́въ, неизбѣ́жнꙋю терпѧ́ше нꙋ́ждꙋ: |
|

|
| For whether he were husbandman, or shepherd, or a labourer in the field, he was overtaken, and endured that necessity, which could not be avoided: for they were all bound with one chain of darkness. | є҆ди́нымъ бо оу҆́жемъ тмы̀ всѝ бѧ́хꙋ свѧ́зани. А҆́ще дꙋ́хъ звизда́ѧй, и҆лѝ междꙋ̀ ча́стыхъ древе́сныхъ вѣ́твей пти́чїй гла́съ сладкопѣ́снивый, и҆лѝ си́ла водна́ѧ текꙋ́щи ѕѣ́лнѣ, |
|
18
|
18
|
| Whether it were a whistling wind, or a melodious noise of birds among the spreading branches, or a pleasing fall of water running violently, | и҆лѝ шꙋ́мъ ѕѣ́лный низпа́дающихъ ка́менїй, и҆лѝ и҆гра́ющихъ живо́тныхъ тече́нїе неви́димое, и҆лѝ рыка́ющихъ лю́тыхъ ѕвѣре́й гла́съ, и҆лѝ ѿзыва́ющьсѧ ѿ де́брей го́рскихъ гла́съ, разслаблѧ́хꙋ ѻ҆́ныхъ оу҆страша́юще. |
|

|
| or a terrible sound of stones cast down, or a running that could not be seen of skipping beasts, or a roaring voice of most savage wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the hollow mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear. | Всѧ́ бо вселе́ннаѧ свѣ́тлымъ просвѣща́шесѧ свѣ́томъ, и҆ невозбра́нными дѣ́лы содержа́шесѧ: |
|

|

|
| For the whole world shined with clear light, and none were hindered in their labour: | на є҆ди́ныхъ же ѻ҆́ныхъ простира́шесѧ тѧ́жкаѧ но́щь, ѡ҆́бразъ бꙋ́дꙋщагѡ и҆́хъ воспрїѧ́тїѧ тмы̀: са́ми же себѣ̀ бы́ша тмы̀ тѧжча́йшїи. |

| over them only was spread a heavy night, an image of that darkness which should afterward receive them: but yet were they unto themselves more grievous than the darkness. |
