¹

But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there shall no torment touch them.

¹

ПравеDныхъ дш~а в рђцњ бж~їи не прикоснется и^хъ мђ'ка.

²

In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure is taken for misery,

²

непщевани бы'ша въ ѓ%чїю безђмныхъ ё^мрњти, въмњнися ѕло'ба и^схоD и^хъ”

³

and their going from us to be utter destruction: but they are in peace.

³

и^ эT нашествїя сокрђшенїе. ѓ^ни' же сђть вᲆ ми'рњ,

⁴

For though they be punished in the sight of men, yet is their hope full of immortality.

⁴

и^б^о преD лицеM члчsкимᲆ а^ще и^ мђкђ прїимђтъ, ё^пова'нїя и^хъ бесмр~тїя и^сполнь”

⁵

And having been a little chastised, they shall be greatly rewarded: for God proved them, and found them worthy for himself.

⁵

Въма'лњ наказа'ни быша и^ вели'каа въспрїимTђ. ја%ко б~ъ и^скђси иX, и^ ѓ^брњте иX досто'ины себњ.

⁶

As gold in the furnace hath he tried them, and received them as a burnt offering.

⁶

и^ ја%ко зла'то въ горᲆнилњ и^скђси и^хъ, и^ ја%ко вс^еплоDнђ жрътвђ прїятᲆ и^хъ.

⁷

And in the time of their visitation they shall shine, and run to and fro like sparks among the stubble.

⁷

и^ въ время посњщенїя и^хъ въсїя'ютъ, ја%ко и^скры по стеблїю потекTђ”

⁸

They shall judge the nations, and have dominion over the people, and their Lord shall reign for ever.

⁸

СђдяT ја^зы'комъ и^ ѓ^блада'ютъ люDми, и^ воцр~ится в нихъ г~ь въ вњки”

⁹

They that put their trust in him shall understand the truth: and such as be faithful in love shall abide with him: for grace and mercy is to his saints, and he hath care for his elect.

⁹

И$ надњю^щїися на'нь раꙁђмњюT и%стин#нђ, и^ вњрнїи въ любви пребђ'дђтъ е^мђ” ЈА/ко блгDть и^ ми'лость въ прпDбныхъ е^го, и^ посњщенїе во и^ꙁбранныX е^го”

¹⁰

But the ungodly shall be punished according to their own imaginations, which have neglected the righteous, and forsaken the Lord.

¹⁰

Нечестивїи же ја%ко помы'слиша прїимђтъ беꙁъчестїе, и^же неради'ша правеDнаго, и^ эT г~а эTстђпи'ша”

¹¹

For whoso despiseth wisdom and nurture, he is miserable, and their hope is vain, their labours unfruitful, and their works unprofitable:

¹¹

Премђ'дроs б^о и^ накаꙁа'нїе ё'ничижаяи нечестенъ е^сть, и^ празDно ё^пова'нїе и^хъ и^ трђды беꙁᲆплоDна, неключима е^сть дњ'ла и^хъ”

¹²

their wives are foolish, and their children wicked:

¹²

Же'ны и^хъ нечђв#ствены сђть, и^ лђка'вы чада иX, прокля'то рожденїе иX”

¹³

Their offspring is cursed. Wherefore blessed is the barren that is undefiled, which hath not known the sinful bed: she shall have fruit in the visitation of souls.

¹³

ЈА/ко бл~жена е^сть непло'ды неѓ^сквръненая, и^же не позна` ло'жа на грњхъ. и%мать плоD въ посњщенїи дш~ъ”

¹⁴

And blessed is the eunuch, which with his hands hath wrought no iniquity, nor imagined wicked things against God: for unto him shall be given the special gift of faith, and an inheritance in the temple of the Lord more acceptable to his mind.

¹⁴

И$ е^внђхъ и^же не съдњла в рђкђ свое'ю беꙁаконїа, н^и помысли'выи на г~а лђкавая” да'сᲄь б^о ся е^мђ вњры блгDть и^збра'нна, и^ жребїи в# хра'мњ бж~їи ё^гоDнњишїи”

¹⁵

For glorious is the fruit of good labours: and the root of wisdom shall never fall away.

¹⁵

Бл~гыхъ б^о трђдовъ плоD сла'венъ, і^ и^же не эTпадеT ко'реня премђ'дросᲄи”

¹⁶

As for the children of adulterers, they shall not come to their perfection, and the seed of an unrighteous bed shall be rooted out.

¹⁶

Ча'да же прелюбодњ'евъ не съвръшена бђдTђ, и^ эT ꙁаконопрестђ'пнаго ло'жа сњмя и^щеꙁнетъ”

¹⁷

For though they live long, yet shall they be nothing regarded: and their last age shall be without honour.

¹⁷

А$ще б^о долгоживотни бђдђтъ нивочто'же въмᲇнятся, и^ въ беꙁᲆчестїи послDњняя ста'рость иX,

¹⁸

Or, if they die quickly, they have no hope, neither comfort in the day of trial.

¹⁸

а^ще же ско'ро скончаTся не и^мњ'ютъ ё^пова'нїя, н^и во' дн~и поꙁна'нїя эT ба'снеи.

¹⁹

For horrible is the end of the unrighteous generation.

¹⁹

ја^ꙁы'ка неправеDна лю'та сђть сконча'нїя”
