| 72: | ҆и фанꙋ ю дх҃овникь за рꙋ́кꙋ | And the cleric took her by the hand | 
| 73: | ҆и заведе ю ꙋ мн͒трь дв҃ически | And he took her to a convent |

| 76: | ҆и ѡстави мал͛ки прозоре́ць коли́ко да ю подава хле́бь ҆и мало водꙋ | And he left a small window just that he could hand her bread and a little water | 
| 77: | ҆и това по еднꙋшь днеска | And that once a day | 
| 78: | ҆и товà сáсь ме́рꙋ | And that with measure | 
| 79: | ҆и рече дх҃овникꙋ: таисїа | And Thaïs said to the cleric: | 
| 80: | где ҆очѐ на про́ходь дá йдемь | ʺWhere should I go for a pass?ʺ | 
| 81: | ҆á дꙋхо́вникь ре́че | And the cleric said: |

| 83: | пáки ре́че тáйсїа | Again, Thaïs spoke: | 
| 84: | како ми ҆о́че вели́ши да мо́лимь бг҃а да ме про́сти гд͒ь бг҃ь ѿ гре́хь мо́й | ʺHow do you order me to ask God to forgive me for my sin?ʺ | 
| 85: | ҆á дх҃о́вникь ю кáже | And the cleric said to her: | 
| 86: | ти ҆ѡще не сѝ досто́ина да поме́нешь име гд͒не | ʺYou are still not worthy of mentioning the name of Godʺ | 
| 87: | ҆и ꙋста тво́и мрьсни сꙋть | And your mouth is foul | 
| 88: | ни́ рꙋце твои мо́жешь дигнꙋ́ти на бг҃а | You cannot raise your hands to God either | 
| 89: | защо сꙋ ҆и рꙋце те ти мрь́сни ҆и безако́ни | ʺFor your hands are foul and lawless tooʺ | 
| 90: | но токо гле́даи нá йстокь | ʺBut just look to the Eastʺ | 
| 91: | ҆и дꙋмáй | ʺAnd say:ʺ | 
| 92: | ти си ме создáль | ʺYou have created meʺ | 
| 93: | поми́лꙋи ме | ʺHave mercy on meʺ | 
| 94: | ҆и седѐ тáйсиа затворе́на три го́динь | And Thaïs sat locked up for three years | 
| 95: | ҆и ҆ѡтиде дꙋховникь при ст҃аго вели́каго ҆áнѳо́нию: да ви́ди дали ҆опро́сти гд͒ь тайсию ҆или не | And the cleric went to St. Anthony the Great to see if God had forgiven Thaïs or not | 
| 96: | и ан͛ѳонїꙗ призовà сн҃ове сво́й | And Anthony called his sons | 
| 97: | ҆и рече ҆имь | And he said to them: | 
| 98: | затворе́те се све́ки ꙋ свою̀ келїю тꙋю но́щь | ʺClose yourselves, everyone to his cell this night!ʺ | 
| 99: | ҆и да помо́лите бг҃а за та҆исїю да ви бг҃ь ҆ꙗ́ви неко́и белекь за ню ноще́ска | ʺAnd pray to God for Thaïs that God gives you a sign for her in the nightʺ | 
| 100: | ҆и затвори́хꙋ се ꙋ келїю | And they locked themselves up in the cells | 
| 101: | ҆и виде пáвель ꙋченїкь анѳо́нинь | And Paul, a student of Anthony's, saw: | 
| 102: | [се] ѿвори́ли се нб҃са | Behold, the heavens were open! | 
| 103: | ҆и виде́ль | And he saw | 
| 104: | ҆о́дрь светѝ като; звездà | A bed shines like a star | 
| 105: | ҆и три деви́ци стою́ть прѝ ҆о́дрь | And three maidens stand next to the bed | 
| 106: | та го̀ чꙋвать | And they protect it | 
| 107: | ҆и ѡколь од͛ро све́щи све́тꙋть | And candles shine around the bed | 
| 108: | ҆и вене́ць на ҆од͛рь стоеше гото́вь, | And a wreath was lying ready on the bed | 
| 109: | ҆и пáвель като видѐ ҆á онь рече | And when Paul saw it, he said: | 
| 110: | комꙋ е пригото́вень тоꙗ венець | ʺFor whom is that wreath prepared?ʺ | 
| 111: | или е ҆о́ц҃ꙋ мое́мꙋ ҆áнѳонїю | ʺOr is it for my father Anthony?ʺ | 
| 112: | ҆и прїиде им глáсь | And a voice came to them | 
| 113: | ҆и дꙋмаше | And it was saying: | 
| 114: | не ѐ то́ꙗ вене́ць ҅оц҃ꙋ твое́мꙋ ҆áнѳонїю но е таисїе блꙋ́днице | ʺThat wreath is not for your father Anthony, but for the prostitute Thaïsʺ | 
| 115: | ҆и ѡпрости ю гд͒ь согрешенїе що бе́ше бг҃ꙋ прегреши́ла | And God forgave her the sin she had commited | 
| 116: | товá чꙋ тайсиа | Thaïs heard this | 
| 117: | ҆и поче да сѐ моли дх҃овникꙋ | And began begging the cleric | 
| 118: | ҆и дꙋмаше мꙋ | And she was saying to him: | 
| 119: | ҆ѡстави́ ме ҆о́че тꙋка до самрьт мою | ʺFather, leave me here until my deathʺ | 
| 120: | че́ смь много гре́шна | ʺFor I am very sinfulʺ | 
| 121: | та хо́че ли гд͒ь бг҃ь да ѡпро́сти гре́хи мо̀ꙗ | ʺSo is God going to forgive my sins?ʺ | 
| 122: | ҆и рече ҆ей ҆оц҃ь | And the father said to her: | 
| 123: | прости́л͛ те е гд͒ь тайсие | ʺGod has forgiven you, Thaïsʺ | 
| 124: | ҆и стро́ши ҆оц҃ь ҆о́ловени печáти | And the father broke the lead seals | 
| 125: | ҆и їзве́де ю нáдворь | And he took her out | 
| 126: | ҆и рече бл҃же́наѧ тáйсиа | And the blessed Thaïs said: | 
| 127: | фани́ ми ве́рꙋ | ʺBelieve me!ʺ | 
| 128: | ҆о́ч҃е ѿ какво̀ вле́зохь ꙋ тꙋю хи́жицꙋ | ʺFather, from when I entered this cabinʺ | 
| ҆и като: тол͛кова гре́хь бе́хь сотвори́ла | ʺand I had commited so much sinʺ | |
| ҆и ѡще не́ бех се добрѐ покаꙗла | ʺand I had still not repented enoughʺ | |
| ҆и като че доиде не́що | ʺit is as if something cameʺ | |
| 129: | та мѝ свали те́шко бре́ме ѿ грьби́нꙋ | ʺand it took a heavy burden off my backʺ | 
| 130: | ҆и стáнꙋ ми леко ҆етѐ ҆и до то҆ꙗ́ чáсь | ʺAnd I felt light, up until this hourʺ | 
| 131: | токо́ товà ре́че | She said just this | 
| 132: | ҆и предáде бг҃ꙋ дх҃ь | And she gave her soul to God | 
| 133: | ҆и полꙋчи́ цр҃тво нб҃ное | And she received the heavenly kingdom | 
| 134: | ҆ѡ вели́ка похвáла ҆и покаꙗнїе | Oh great praise and repentence! | 
| 135: | ви́дите ли коли́ко бг҃ь милꙋ́ва члове́ка ко́й се покáе за гре́хь сво́и | Do you see how much God loves man, who repents for his sin? | 
| 136: | нали чꙋ́ете какво̀ казꙋва ꙋ ст҃ое писáнїе | You hear what it says in the Holy Scripture | 
| 137: | бг҃ь знáе защо̀ нїе кáта чáсь гре́шаме бг҃ꙋ | God knows why we sin against God every hour | 
| 138: | но ни се мло́го срь́ди | But He is very angry at us | 
| 139: | защо се не покáеме | For we do not repent | 
| 140: | ҆и да се сети́ме за нашїꙗ гре́хь | And let us become aware of our sin. | 
| 141: | да рече́ме | Let us say: | 
| 142: | ѡͯ бж҃е ми́ли сега ҆ꙗ́ те́бе ҆еди́номꙋ согреши́хь | ʺOh dear God, against You only have I now sinned!ʺ | 
| 143: | ҆á ѿ те́бе бж҃е не ѿстꙋпи́хь | ʺBut I have not stepped away from Youʺ | 
| 144: | затовà да рече́ме | Because of this let us say | 
| 145: | бж҃е создáви ме поми́лꙋи ме | ʺO God, (who) had created me, have mercy with me!ʺ | 
| 146: | ҆и бг҃ь е дль́го трьпели́вь | And God is very patient | 
| 147: | ҆и мно́го е мл̂ти́вь | And He is very merciful | 
| 148: | ҆и не ѡстáв҆ꙗ́ рабà своего̀ да вапáдне диáволꙋ ꙋ рꙋке | And He does not let His servant fall into the hands of the Devil | 
| 149: | ҆á ко́й сто́ри не́кой гре́хь тежек ҆и не покае́ се ѡͯ те́шко ҆и гор͛ко томꙋ́ва чл҃ве́кꙋ | And he, who commits some heavy sin and does not repent, oh woe unto this man! | 
| 150: | ҆áко не ꙋмешь да сѐ поклáнꙗшь; ҆или не щешь да поплáчеш ѿ своѐ согреше́нїе ҆á не можеш ли да рече́шь | If you cannot bow or you do not want to cry about your wrongdoing, can you not say: | 
| 151: | гд͒и поми́лꙋи ме гре́шнаго | ʺGod, have mercy on sinful me!ʺ | 
| 152: | ҆или ҆áко е женà пáки тако да рече́ .:. | Or if it is a woman, she should again say thus | 
| 153: | еи́ же слáвꙋ возь҆исилаем ҆о́ц҃ꙋ:. | For her I send glory to the Father |
