Esther
King James Bible → Елизаветинская Библия

Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus, (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces:)

И҆ бы́сть по словесѣ́хъ си́хъ во дне́хъ а҆ртаѯе́рѯа: се́й а҆ртаѯрѯъ ѿ ї҆нді́и ѡ҆блада́ше сто̀ два́десѧть седмїю̀ страна́ми (да́же до є҆ѳїо́пїи):

That in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace,

во дни҄ же ты҄ѧ, є҆гда̀ сѣ́де на престо́лѣ ца́рь а҆ртаѯе́рѯъ въ сѹ́сѣхъ гра́дѣ,

In the third year of his reign, he made a feast unto all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces, being before him:

въ тре́тїе лѣ́то ца́рства своегѡ̀, сотворѝ пи́ръ дрѹгѡ́мъ и҆ про́чымъ ѩ҆зы́кѡмъ, и҆ пє́рсскимъ и҆ ми҄дскимъ сла҄внымъ, и҆ нача҄лнымъ сатра́иѡмъ,

When he shewed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honour of his excellent majesty many days, even an hundred and fourscore days.

и҆ по си́хъ, є҆гда̀ показа̀ и҆̀мъ бога́тство ца́рства своегѡ̀ и҆ сла́вѹ весе́лїѧ своегѡ̀, во сто̀ ѻ҆́смьдесѧтъ дні́й.

And when these days were expired, the king made a feast unto all the people that were present in Shushan the palace, both unto great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king's palace;

И҆ є҆гда̀ и҆спо́лнишасѧ дні́е пи́ра, сотворѝ ца́рь пи́ршество ѩ҆зы́кѡмъ ѡ҆брѣ́тшымсѧ во гра́дѣ (сѹ́сѣхъ) на дні́й ше́сть во дворѣ̀ до́мѹ царе́ва,

Where were white, green, and blue, hangings, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and pillars of marble: the beds were of gold and silver, upon a pavement of red, and blue, and white, and black, marble.

ѹ҆кра́шеннѣмъ вѷссо́нными и҆ зеле́иыми завѣ́сами, просте́ртыми на ѹ҆́жахъ вѷссо́нныхъ и҆ червлени́чныхъ, на ко́лцахъ златы́хъ и҆ сре́брѧныхъ, на столпѣ́хъ мра́морныхъ и҆ ка́менныхъ:

And they gave them drink in vessels of gold, (the vessels being diverse one from another,) and royal wine in abundance, according to the state of the king.

лѡ́жа зла҄та и҆ срє́брѧна, на помо́стѣ ка́мене смара́гдова, и҆ пїнні́нска и҆ парі́нска мра́мора, и҆ плащани҄цы пестрота́ми разли́чными разцвѣ́чєны, ѡ҆́крестъ шипцы̀ разсѣ́ѧни:

And the drinking was according to the law; none did compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure.

сосѹ́ди зла́ти и҆ сре́брѧни, и҆ ча́ша а҆нѳра́ѯа (ка́мене) предложе́ннаѧ, цѣно́ю тала҄нтъ три́десѧть ты́сѧщъ: вїно̀ мно́го и҆ сла́дко, є҆́же са́мъ ца́рь пїѧ́ше: питїе́ же сїѐ не по ѹ҆ста́вленномѹ зако́нѹ бы́сть, та́кѡ бо восхотѣ̀ ца́рь и҆ заповѣ́да ї҆коно́мѡмъ сотвори́ти во́лю свою̀ и҆ мѹже́й.

Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus.

И҆ а҆сті́нь цари́ца сотворѝ пи́ръ жена́мъ въ домѹ̀ царе́вѣ, и҆дѣ́же ца́рь а҆ртаѯе́рѯъ.

On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,

Въ де́нь же седмы́й развесели́всѧ ца́рь, речѐ а҆ма́нѹ и҆ ваза́нѹ, и҆ ѳа́ррѣ и҆ вара́зѹ, и҆ заѳолѳа́нѹ и҆ а҆вата́зѹ и҆ ѳара́вѹ, седми́мъ є҆ѵнѹ́хѡмъ, и҆̀же слѹжа́хѹ пред̾ царе́мъ а҆ртаѯе́рѯомъ,

To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on.

привестѝ (а҆сті́нь) цари́цѹ пред̾ него́, є҆́же воцари́ти ю҆̀ и҆ возложи́ти на ню̀ вѣне́цъ ца́рскїй и҆ показа́ти ю҆̀ всѣ҄мъ нача́лствѹющымъ и҆ ѩ҆зы́кѡмъ красотѹ̀ є҆ѧ̀, занѐ прекра́сна бѣ̀.

But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by his chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.

И҆ не послѹ́ша є҆гѡ̀ а҆сті́нь цари́ца прїитѝ со є҆ѵнѹ҄хи.

Then the king said to the wise men, which knew the times, (for so was the king's manner toward all that knew law and judgment:

И҆ ѡ҆печа́лисѧ ца́рь, и҆ разгнѣ́васѧ, и҆ речѐ бли҄жнимъ свои҄мъ: си́це речѐ а҆сті́нь: сотвори́те ѹ҆̀бо ѡ҆ се́мъ зако́нъ и҆ сѹ́дъ.

And the next unto him was Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, which saw the king's face, and which sat the first in the kingdom;)

И҆ пристѹпи́ша къ немѹ̀ а҆ркесе́й и҆ сарсоѳе́й и҆ малисеа́ръ, нача҄лницы пе́рсстїи и҆ ми́дстїи, и҆̀же бли́з̾ царѧ̀, пе́рвїи сѣдѧ́щїи при царѝ,

What shall we do unto the queen Vashti according to law, because she hath not performed the commandment of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains?

и҆ возвѣсти́ша є҆мѹ̀ по зако́нѡмъ, ка́кѡ подоба́етъ сотвори́ти цари́цѣ а҆сті́ни, ѩ҆́кѡ не сотворѝ повелѣ́нныхъ ѿ царѧ̀ чрез̾ є҆ѵнѹ́хи.

And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti the queen hath not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the people that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus.

И҆ речѐ мѹхе́й ко царю̀ и҆ къ болѧ́рѡмъ: не царѧ̀ є҆ди́наго ѡ҆би́дѣ а҆сті́нь цари́ца, но и҆ всѧ҄ кнѧ҄зи и҆ нача́лники царє́вы,

For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported, The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.

и҆́бо повѣ́да и҆мъ словеса̀ цари́цы, и҆ ка́кѡ противоречѐ царю̀:

Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day unto all the king's princes, which have heard of the deed of the queen. Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath.

ѩ҆́коже ѹ҆бѡ проти́внѡ речѐ царю̀ а҆ртаѯе́рѯѹ, си́це и҆ дне́сь госпѡжѝ жєны̀ про́чыѧ кнѧзе́й пе́рсскихъ и҆ ми́дскихъ, ѹ҆слы́шавшѧ царю̀ речє́ннаѧ ѿ неѧ̀, дерзнѹ́тъ та́кожде безче́ствовати мѹже́и свои́хъ:

If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.

а҆́ще ѹ҆̀бо ѹ҆го́дно царю̀, да повели́тъ ца́рскимъ повелѣ́нїемъ, и҆ да напи́шетсѧ по зако́нѡмъ ми҄дскимъ и҆ пє́рсскимъ, и҆ и҆́накѡ да не бѹ́детъ, нижѐ да вни́детъ ктомѹ̀ цари́ца къ немѹ̀, и҆ ца́рство є҆ѧ̀ да преда́стъ ца́рь женѣ̀ лѹ́чшей є҆ѧ̀:

And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.

и҆ да бѹ́детъ ѹ҆слышанъ зако́нъ, и҆́же ѿ царѧ̀, є҆го́же сотвори́тъ во ца́рствїи свое́мъ, и҆ си́це всѧ҄ жєны̀ возложа́тъ че́сть на мѹ́жы своѧ҄ ѿ бога́та да́же до ѹ҆бо́га.

And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan:

И҆ ѹ҆го́дно бы́сть сло́во пред̾ царе́мъ и҆ нача҄лники, и҆ сотворѝ ца́рь, ѩ҆́коже речѐ є҆мѹ̀ мѹхе́й,

For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people.

и҆ посла̀ ца́рь кни҄ги во всѐ ца́рство по страна́мъ по ѧ҆зы́кѹ и҆́хъ, да бѹ́детъ стра́хъ и҆̀мъ въ жили́щихъ и҆́хъ.
