4:	Vélïe někoe dobro єs҄ ljúbymici pokaánïe.	Penance is a great good, my beloved (Christians).
5:	ʾi čtô tákovo єs҄,	And what (kind of good) is this (penance)?
6:	ʾjako vъsákь čl҃kь sp҃saє´t se.	(It means a chance for) every man to be saved.
7:	vъsákye grě´si ʾwmívaetь.	It washes all the kinds of sins away.
8:	vъsáky zlóby wtsě´kaetь.	It removes all the kinds of vices.
9:	ně´s҄ nikoì grěx ʾє´že ne praštaetь b҃ъ ʾєgdà kaeT se čl҃kь.	There is no sin, which cannot be forgiven by God, when the human repents.
10:	pokaánye tvóritь velїa rados҄ na nbs҄xь, ʾi b҃ou ʾi aˇg҃glwm,	Penance creates a great joy in the heavens, both to God and angels,
11:	ʾjakóže povelě` ʾi g҃ь vъ st҃mь ʾєѵg҄lïi,	as the Lord also said (lit. commanded) in the Gospel:
12:	rádos҄ bývaetь nâ nbs҄y ʾw ʾedínwm grě´šnice kájuštim se.	There is (more) joy in the Heavens about one repenting sinner.
13:	pokaánye єs҄ ʾočišténïe dš҃i čl҃ku, ʾi vtóroe kršt҃énïe.	Penance is a washing of the soul and (its) second baptism,
14:	zanè ktô ʾwskvrъ´nitь prъ´voe kršt҃enïe sъ grě´xmi, pakỳ sъ pokaányemь prïʾwbrě´taetь.	because he, who taints the first baptism by sin, returns by penance.
15:	pokaánïe єs҄ velïa polzà grěšnomu čl҃ku,	Penance is (of) a great boon to a sinful man.
16:	ʾjakóže svdětelьstvujutь knígy crk҃vě našeì.	Thus it is witnessed by the literature of our Church.
17:	wt tákovoe pokaánïe sps҃oše s҄ mnóźy grěšny čl҃cy.	Many sinful men saved themselves by such penance,
18:	ʾi ne tъ´čïju sps҄še se,	and they did not only saved themselves,
19:	nь^ ʾi st҃yi býše	but also they became saints,
20:	ʾi poklanjáem se ʾi my̏ dn҃ьšnỳ dn҃ь.	and we pay respect to them (until?) today,
21:	ʾjakóže ʾi st҃a mrï´a ʾєgíptenini ĭže bě̏ bludna ʾi grě´šna ženâ,	as St. Mary of Egypt, too, who was an adulterous and sinful woman,
22:	ʾi tъ´kmo ʾjako pokaá se ʾi pósti se, ʾost҃i se	and just by how she repented and fasted, she made herself a saint,
23:	ʾi počté se wt b҃a ʾi wt čl҃kь.	and she became honored by both God and humans.
24:	tȍe st҃ye grě´si ʾi pokaánye xóštu povedati dns҄ь ljúbymici.	I want to tell you today about the sins and penance of that saint, my beloved (Christians).
25:	ʾi ségo radì ml҃ju bg҃oljúbïe vaše,	And for this reason, I pray you, o God-loving ones:
26:	poslušaíte slovesà sъ vъsakym priležánïemь,	Do hear my words with all care,
	da razúměete ʾi navíkněte, kóliko vъzmagaetь pokaánïe čl҃ku.	so that you understand and learn, how much can penance help to a man.
27:	vъ stráni palestinskye, bě̏ ně´ky sšt҃énĭ ʾinókь	There was a priest-hermit in the land of Palestine.
28:	zosíma ʾimě ʾєmû.	His name (was) Zosima.
29:	bě´še ž҄ stárcь tъ̏, vъ mnózěi dobrodě´teli.	This old man was fully in (lit. a lot of) virtue.
30:	ʾi tóliko bě̏ gověínь vъ dobrodětelěx,	His virtue was respected so much,
	ʾєlíko mnózy ʾinócy wt ʾokrs҄tъnyix monástyrěx, prixóždaaxu mnógašti	that many other hermits from the monasteries around were coming
	poslúšati slovesà wt ʾoústь stárca tógo.	to hear the words from the mouth of that elder.
31:	sъtvóri bô vъ tómь monastíri, ʾíže býs҄ petʹ ds҄etь ʾi trȉ lě´t҄.	For he was for (lit. made) fifty-three years in that monastery, (where) he was.
32:	potom prïíde ʾєmû pomýšlenïe tákovoe.	Then such an idea came to him:
33:	ʾjako ʾєdà ʾwbrě´štet se ktô ʾє´že poʾučíti me ně´koe dělo ʾinočъ´skoє.	(lit. that:) Can there be found anyone, who would teach me something concerning hermitry?
34:	єs҄ lì ktô ʾíže nikogdà ne trebuetь ničtô,	Is there anyone, who never lacked anything,
	nь^ єs҄ vъ vsě´m sъvrъ´šenь;	but rather is perfect in all aspects?
35:	єs҄ lí že ktô vъ pustíny, ʾíže me prěʾumnózit҄ vъ dobrodě´telěx;	Is there anybody in the desert, who exceeds me in virtue?
36:	sï´a vъspimínašε stárcь,	Thus did the elder think
	ʾágg҃lь gn҃ь ʾjaví se	(then,) an angel of the Lord appeared
37:	ʾi gl҃a ʾєmû.	and he said to him:
38:	zosimâ, dobry ʾi velíci sut҄ ʾi tvoì dobrodě´telei,	O Zosima, your virtues, too, are good and great,
39:	nь^ poidì nь^ ʾıʾwrdánscěi rěcě`. vъ monastíri ʾíže єs҄ támo blízь,	but go along the river Jordan, to the monastery, which is there nearby,
	da vdíši ʾi nỳe veličaíši vъ dobrodětelěx wt tébě.	so that you can see those (lit. us), greater in virtue than you.
40:	vъstà ăbïe stárcь,	The elder stood up immediately,
41:	ʾi poíde vъ ʾwnom monastíri.	and he went to that monastery.
42:	ʾi vъložì meТánïe	And he prayed (lit. gave metanoia in),
43:	ʾi ʾwstà Тámo.	and he remained there.
44:	ʾobýčaĭ že ʾiměáxu ʾinocy ʾwnì.	Those monks had a custom:
45:	ʾjako čísti pondelnikь ʾisxoždaáxu vъ pustíni kъždo vъsáky	(lit. that:) They all went out into the desert everyone,
46:	ʾi sъtvóraaxu tamo daže do ndéle cvě´tonósnye.	and they remained (lit. made) there until the Palm Sunday
47:	po ʾwbýčaju že bô monastírskomu, ʾizýde ʾi stárcь zosimâ.	And the elder Zosima went out too, according to the custom of the monastery.
48:	ʾi prěšdь ʾıʾwrdánь sъ ʾinìmi ʾinóci.	And he (lit. having) crossed Jordan with other hermits.
49:	ʾjakóže bô razlúčiše s҄ drug҄ drúga,	And as they separated themselves from each other,
	prïíde ʾєmû pomýslь vъníti vъ vъnutrnǫę pustínju,	a thought came to him, to go into the inner desert,
	ʾєdà ʾwbrě´sti někoʾegò stárca posТníka,	to maybe find one hermit elder,
	ʾouslýšati ně´koe slovo bž҃ı´e wt négo.	to hear some word of God from him.
50:	ʾi xóždaše, prispě čás҄ pěti služb҄u svojù.	And (as) he went, the time came to sing his liturgy.
51:	potwm stà na vъskot҄.	Then he stood up towards the East,
52:	ʾi ml҃jaše s҄.	and he prayed.
53:	ʾi támo stojuštu. vídě ʾjako sénь ʾíže ʾjavljáše s҄ člčs҄koe tě´lo.	And as he was standing there, he saw something like a human body, which appeared like a shadow.

57:	ʾi xóždaše čl҃kь kъ désnuju ʾєgò stránně.	and a human was walking towards his right side,
58:	ʾi tě´lo ʾєgò, bě´še črъno ʾw mnózě.	and his body was very black,
59:	vlásï ʾєgò bě´xu běli ʾjakóže bubákь.	his hair were white as cotton,
60:	próč҄e běxu máli.	they were also short,
61:	tъ´kmo dáže do rámu ʾєgò dospevaáxu.	they reached only to his shoulders.
62:	ʾi ʾjakóže ʾєgò vídě stárcь, vъzradуva se ʾw mnózě.	And as the elder saw him, he rejoiced very much,
63:	káko ʾwbrě´te ʾwnò ʾíže prošaáše.	because he found what he prayed for.
64:	ʾi ʾábïe načè tečáti po nem.	And he immediately started to run towards him.
65:	ʾi ʾjakož҄ vídě ʾjako tečet҄, zosímâ	And as he saw that Zosima runs (to him, he ran away),
66:	ăšte ʾi bě̏ stárcь, proč҄é téčaše mnóžae.	(Zosima), although he was old, ran even more.
67:	ʾєgdà priblíži se blízь ʾєliko slýšati se glas҄. vъspláka se stárcь	As he closed in, so that a voice could be heard, the elder cried,
68:	ʾi gl҃a kъ nemu ʾíže ʾjávljaše s҄.	and he said to the one, who appeared:
69:	počtô radì běgaeši grěšnomu, rábě bž҃ïi.	Why are you running from (me,) the sinful, o servant of God?
70:	počtô me sъmúštaeši sTastárca, ʾi ne stoíši bls҄vyti me.	Why are you making me, an old man, grieve, and do not stay to bless me?
71:	stanì radì ljúbvě xv҃ě,	Stop, for the love of Christ!
72:	ʾjako єˇsmь stárcь	Because I am an old man,
73:	ʾi ne mg҄u posledovati ti.	and I cannot follow you.
74:	sï´a běsedujuštu stárcu ʾi téčeštu,	As the elder was saying this and running,
	prispě na ʾєdnom mě´stě ʾíže bě´še ʾjako súxy potьkь málь.	he reached a place, which was like a small, dry brook,
75:	ʾwn že ʾíže ʾjavljáše s҄ sъníde	And the one, who appeared, went down,
76:	ʾi pakỳ vъzýde.	and he went up again,
77:	stárc že stà	but the elder stood
	ne možaáše prěíti,	(as) he could not cross,
78:	ʾi plákaše mnóžae.	and he cried even more.
79:	togdà wtvěšta wˇnь ʾíže ʾjaví se,	Then the one, who appeared, answered,
80:	ʾi gl҃a kъ zosímě.	and he said to Zosima:
81:	prostí me ʾavvâ zósima g҃a radì.	Forgive me, Father Zosima, for the sake of the Lord!
82:	ne mógu státi viděti me.	I cannot stand to (let you) see me,
83:	ʾjako єˇsmь naga ʾjakóže me vdíši,	because I am naked, as you see me,

89:	ʾi togdà poidè	And he went,
90:	ʾi sъtvóri mεtánïa.	and he prayed.

97:	ʾjako єˇsi sšt҃énikь b҃a výšnjago.	because you are a priest of the Highest God,
98:	ʾjako mnógašti stoíši vъ st҃mь žrъtьvníce	because you stand many times in the holy place of the sacrifice,

133:	ʾi ʾoúzrè ʾjako єs҄ ženâ, ʾєdínь sъženь wt zémle vyše	and he saw the woman being one fathom above the ground.
134:	ʾi ʾjakóže ju vídě. vъlóži vъ ʾumь svoì ʾjako xóštet҄ býti někoe prividěnïe běsóvʹskoe.	And as he saw her, he put to his mind that it must be some kind of demonic vision,
135:	ʾi sъmněše s҄ ʾjako ml҃ít se.	and he doubted that she was praying.
136:	togdà wtvě´šta ženâ ʾwnà	Then the woman answered,
137:	ʾi gl҃a.	and she spoke:
138:	koà pomýšlenïa tvoà ʾavva zósima.	What are your thoughts, Father Zosima?
139:	ʾi vъ ʾumě svoemь vъlʾágaeši ʾjako єˇsmь privíděnïe.	So you put to your mind that I am an apparition?

150:	ne sъkrí mi ničtô.	Do not hide anything from me!
151:	ʾjako syx radì bl҃govóli b҃ъ ʾi víděti te.	Because that is why God allowed me to see you,

152:	zanè ăšte ne by xótělь b҃ъ víděti te,	For if God would not want (me) to see you,

	ʾíže nikogdà ne mógoxь vъnь ʾizýti wt kélïju moju.	who was never able to leave his own cell.
153:	ʾjakóže bô vidě st҃a slovesa ʾi slъ´zy ʾєgo, gl҃a kъ zósime,	As the saint saw his words and tears, she spoke to Zosima:
154:	ʾávva zosimâ. sramljú se grě´šna povědati dě´la moà,	O Father Zosima, I, the sinful one, am ashamed to tell you of my deeds,
155:	ʾjako sut҄ plъ´na sramь.	because they are full of shame(fulness)
156:	próč҄e da ʾispověždu ti dns҄ь ʾjavlεnno kъ st҃nju ti.	But let me tell you (about them) today clearly for your sainthood.

187:	ne ponuždaí me réšti po naprěd.	Do not compel me to tell more!
188:	ʾjako ʾwskvrъ´njaju vъzduxъ ʾi zémlju sъ slóvesi moími.	Because thus I taint the air and ground by my words.
189:	sï´a rč҄e st҃aa	The saint said these (words),
190:	ʾi ʾoumlъ´ča.	and she became silent.
191:	togdà gl҃a ʾеĭ stárcь.	Then the elder spoke to her:
192:	rcí mi mt҃i prpdobna daže do kóncà.	Tell me, o Reverend Mother, up to the end!
193:	ʾi ne sъkrivaì ničtóže wt méně.	And do not hide anything from me!
194:	pakỳ wtvě´šta st҃a	Again, the saint answered,

196:	ʾavvà zosimâ poneže me ponúždaeši, réšti ti ti ʾi po naprěd,	O Father Zosima, because you insist, (I will) speak further.
197:	ʾábïe povrъ´gox fúrku mojù	I threw away my distaff,

200:	ʾi víděx ds҄étь junoše krásnyx ʾíže xótěxu vъníti vъ kórablь.	And I saw ten beautiful young men, who wanted to enter the ship,
201:	ʾi gl҃axь ĭmь	and I spoke to them:

203:	ʾi podádite wtkúpь meně radì.	And pay the fare for me!

209:	ʾjakóže ʾizýdox ʾizь kórablja, ne dovólni mi běxu prěždnye moì grě´si.	When I left the ship, my previous sins were not enough for me,
210:	nь^ poískax ʾi ʾíněx ljúblennikь množaíši.	but I wanted also other lovers.
211:	ʾєgdà prispě` dn҃ь vъzdvyžénïa, ăz že ʾjakóže ʾi prěžde tvórex grěx.	when the Feast of the Cross came, I was sinning again as before

221:	ʾi stojúšti mi támo vъspominax ʾjako wt sъgrěšeni moix ne mógu vъníti.	staying there I thought, that I could not come in because of my sins
222:	ʾi ʾjakóže vъspákax se grěx radì moix, víděx više meně	and as I started to cry because of my sins, I looked (lit. saw) above me

323:	nь^ b҃ъ ʾíže rč҄é ʾjako ne ʾw xlěbě tъ´kmo žívetʹ čl҃kь, tъ̏i mè pítaše ʾi pokrívaše me.	but God, who said that man does not live only by bread (Mt 4:4), He was feeding me and clothing me
324:	ʾjako tъ̏ polóži vь nb҃sa na ʾwblácěx.	because He puts clouds onto heavens (Ps 146:8)
325:	zosimâ ža ʾjako ʾuslýša wt písani gl҃et҄, wtvě´šta	as Zosima heard her citing the Scriptures, he answered
326:	ʾi rč҄e ʾєĭ.	and he said to her:

328:	ʾilì naʾučí te ktô;	or by whom have you been taught?
329:	gl҃a ʾemû st҃a.	the saint spoke to him:

335:	ʾjakóže ʾєmû rč҄é st҃a.	thus the saint spoke

336:	togdà kósnu se ʾєmû st҃a	then saint interrupted him
337:	ʾi ne ʾwstavï ʾєgò sъtvoríti sъvrъ´šenu metánïju.	and she did not allow him to finish the prayer

348:	ʾi ʾwžidaí me tamo.	and await me there
349:	ʾjako wtně´liže prïidwx zdȅ, ʾє´šte ne pričésTix se.	because since I came here I did not have Eucharist yet

353:	sï´a rč҄e st҃a	thus said the saint

362:	ʾi togda vъspomě´nu káko rč҄e ʾєmû st҃a, ʾizýti ʾizъ monastíra.	and then he remembered, how the saint spoke to him, (about) leaving the monastery
363:	próč҄e sъtvori málo dn҃y tresaviceju drъžim	then he spent some days, having the fever
364:	ʾi pakỳ ʾiscě´le.	and he became healthy again
365:	ʾєgdà že prispě` velíkyi čétvrьtokь. vъzè st҃oe pričešténïe ʾjakóže rč҄e ʾemû st҃aa.	when the Maundy Thursday came, he took the Holy Eucharist as the saint told him
366:	ʾi vъzét҄ malo smókvy ʾi fíniky ʾi léštu kvášenu vъ vódě.	and he took a few figs and dates and lentils fermented in the water
367:	ʾi poidè blízь rě´ky,	and he went to the river
368:	ʾi ʾwžídaše víděti st҃uju.	and he waited to see her
369:	ʾi plákaše mnóžae kako zakásně st҃a ʾi ne prixódit҄,	and he cried a lot, as the saint was late and not coming
370:	ʾi pakỳ prïídoše ʾєmû támo ʾi druga pomýšlenïa.	and again, also other thoughts came to him there
371:	ʾi vъlágaše vъ ʾumь svoì ʾjako ăšte prïídetь st҃a, sъ čim xóštet҄ prěíti ʾıʾwrdánь	and he was putting on his mind, how could the saint cross Jordan, if she will come
	ʾíže kórablь něs҄.	where (which) there was no boat
372:	sï´a vъspominaše, vídě st҃uju	thinking about this, he saw the saint
373:	ʾi prispě	(as) she arrived
374:	ʾjakóže ju [vídě] stà.	and as as he saw her, he stood up
375:	ʾi páky starcь čjuždaše s҄ sъ čim prěíti.	and the elder wondered, how (she could) cross

378:	nóštь bě̏ vrě´me	it was a night

381:	zosimâ že ʾjakóže ju vídě sъtvóri wbrázь poklóniti se.	seeing her, Zosima seemed to want to bow to her
382:	ʾi gl҃a ʾemû st҃a,	and the saint spoke to him:
383:	ʾavvâ zosimâ čtô xóšteši sъtvóriti.	o Father Zosima, what do you want to do?
384:	st҃aa taína nósiši	you carry the Holy Eucharist

386:	gl҃jušti slóvo sȅ st҃a prispě` kъ stárcu	speaking this word, the saint came to the elder
387:	ʾi rč҄é	and she said:
388:	bls҄vi me ʾavvâ	o Father, bless me
389:	bls҄vi me,	bless me
390:	potom vъloži stárca	then asked the elder:
391:	ʾi ʾizrč҄e ʾєĭ oč҃é nášь, ʾi vě´ruju vъ ʾєdínogo b҃a.	and he told her Our Father and Credo (I believe in one God)
392:	ʾi cělova ʾegò po ʾwbýčai ljúbvě.	and she kissed him according to the custom of love
393:	ʾi togdà pričésti se	and then she took the Eucharist
394:	ʾi réčε.	and she said:
395:	nn҃ě wtpúštaeši rábu tvojù vldko sъ mirom po gl҃ju tvoʾєmû,	now you have freed your servant, o Lord, with peace as You have said
396:	ʾjakože viděstě ʾꙫči moi sps҄énïe Tvoe.	for my eyes have seen Your salvation (Lk 2:30)
397:	Togdà gl҃a stárcu.	then she spoke to the elder:

403:	gl҃a ʾєĭ stárcь.	the elder spoke to her:

406:	prosTrь bò st҃a rǫ´ku	then the saint stretched her hand

408:	ʾi pakỳ sъtvóri krs҄tь svoì,	and she crossed herself again
409:	ʾi prěíde ʾıʾwrdánьskaa rě´ka više, ʾjakóže ʾi prъ´vi krátь.	and she crossed the river Jordan as in the first time
410:	stárcь že vъzvráti se vъ monas҄tírь svoì slávešti b҃a.	and the elder returned to his monastery, praising God
411:	nь^ mnógaa skrъbeáše kako ne uvdě ʾimě st҃ěì.	but he was very sad for not asking (seeing) the name of the saint
412:	próč҄e naděáše s҄ pakỳ vъpróstitï ju.	for the next time, he hoped to ask her
413:	ʾєgdà že prispě pakỳ lě´to. ʾi dn҃y sírni, ʾizýde ʾizь monastírь po ʾwbýčai ĭže ʾiměáxu,	when the next year and the Cheese Days came, he left the monastery according to the custom they had
414:	ʾi xoždaaše po pustíni zréšti samo ʾi ʾwnámo	and he was walking around the desert looking here and there
	ʾєdà bò víděti st҃ǫę gdȅ.	where the saint could be seen
415:	ʾi ʾjakóže ju ne ʾuvdě´ nače plákati sTárcь,	and as he did not see her, the elder began to cry
416:	ʾi sъ slъ´zami mnogymi gl҃aše kъ b҃u.	and with many tears he spoke to God:
417:	b҃e mói velíkosílně. ʾíže me spdóbi víděti tákovoe taínsTvo, ne razlučaí me ʾi dáže do koncà sъvrъ´šiti.	o my powerful God, who made me to see such a great mystery, do not abandon me before I finish it
418:	spdóbi me x҃è moì polučiti mi pakỳ ml҃tvami єeˇ rábě tvoè.	make me worthy, o my Christ, to receive the prayer from her, your servant
419:	sï´a gl҃juštu stárcu. zrȅšti na dě´sno ʾi na lévo ʾєdà vídětï ju,	as the elder was thus speaking, he looked on his right and left, whether she was to see there
420:	ʾi zréšti vidě ʾidéže bě̏ končála ʾi sъ krъsténi rǫ´cě.	and looking thus, he saw, where he had passed away with crossed hands
421:	ʾi glávu ʾєi bě´še kъ zapadu.	and her head was (turned) towards the west
422:	ʾi ʾjakóže ju vidě teče plačjúšti se.	and as he saw her, he ran crying to her
423:	ʾi ʾwséza nozě st҃ěi	and he embraced her legs
424:	ʾi kropěáše ʾix sъ slъzami ʾєgò.	and he watered them with his tears
425:	ʾєlíko bò móštno slъ´zeše	and he wept strongly
426:	ʾi wt ѱáltira réče neporoč҄ny,	and from the Psalter he recited the (Psalm of the) Undefiled (Ps 118)
427:	ʾi togdà čjúždaše s҄ čtô sъtvóriti	and then he wondered what to do
428:	ʾi ăbïe vídě výše glávye st҃ěi,	and then he saw (looked?) over the head of the saint
	ʾi bě̏ písana zemljà,	and the ground was written upon
429:	ʾi gl҃aše táko	and it spoke thus:
430:	ʾavvâ zosimâ. pogrě´by tělo směrénïe marï´e sï´e ʾíže ʾwbrě´te.	Father Zosima, bury the body of this humble Mary, which you have found
431:	ʾi ml҃i b҃a ʾw mn^ě radì.	and pray God for my sake

433:	sï´a pisánïa ʾjakóže vídě zosimâ, čjúždaše s҄ kto ʾix sъpísa.	as Zosima saw these writings, he wondered, who has written them
434:	rekla bô bě̏ ʾєmû st҃a káko ne vě´stь pisánïa	because she had told him, that she does not know how to write
	ʾi káko dvȁ ds҄etь dn҃y púta, vъ ʾєdínь čas҄ poíde st҃aa.	and (he wondered) how the saint could pass 20 days of walk in an hour
435:	ʾi próč҄e čjúždaše s҄ pakỳ sъ čímь ʾiskópati zemljù.	and also he wondered how to dig the ground
436:	támo vídě malo drě´vo dólě na zemlì povrъ´ženno,	he saw there a small piece of wood thrown on the ground
437:	ʾi načétь sъ ními kopati zemljù.	and he began to dig the ground with it (them)
438:	ʾi ne vъzmóže.	and he could not
439:	ʾjako bě stárь	because he was old
440:	nь^ ʾi mě´sto bě̏ mnógo suxo.	but also the place was very dry
441:	ʾi ʾábïe vídě ʾєdínogo lъvâ ʾíže ližaše nózě st҃ěì	and suddenly he saw a lion, licking the saintʹs legs
442:	ʾi ʾjakóže ʾєgò vídě ʾouboá se.	and as he saw (the beast), he became afraid
443:	ʾjako vъspomínaše slóvo st҃ěi ʾidéže rč҄e. ʾjako źvěrâ ne vídě vъ četiri ds҄étь lě´t҄.	because he remembered the word of the saint, (where she said) that she did not saw a beast in forty years
444:	proč҄e sъtvóri krs҄tь svoì,	then he crossed himself
445:	ʾi naděєˇ se ne vrě´ditï ʾєgò,	and he hoped to not harm him
446:	ʾi wtvě´šta kъ lъ´vu	and he said (answered) to the lion
447:	ʾi rč҄e.	and said:
448:	ʾw` źvěrû ne ʾukrótimi. ponéže sila bž҃ı´a prinesla te єs҄ zdȅ pomóšti mi,	o untameable beast, as the power of God has brought you here to help me,

449:	ʾjako єˇsmь ăzь stárь	because I am old
450:	ʾi ne vъzmógu. nižè kópati nižè poíti prinésti dělánïa kópati.	and I cannot dig nor bring tools (?) for digging
451:	ʾi ségo radì ty̏ sъtvóri gróbь st҃ěì.	for this reason, you do make a grave for the saint
452:	Síce rč҄e stárcь.	thus spoke the elder
453:	ʾi ʾabïè lъ´vь vъzъmь sъ prědními nógami	and the lion quickly began (to dig) with his forward legs
454:	ʾi ʾiskópa ʾєlíko pokriti tělo st҃ěi,	and he dug out so much (as needed) to cover the body of the saint
455:	ʾi ʾjakóže ʾiskópa sъTvori metánïa kъ stárcu	and as he finished digging, he did a prayer towards the elder
456:	ʾi vъníde vъnútrь pustíni.	and he went into the desert
457:	stárcь že pogrébe tělo st҃ye támo ʾidéže ju ʾwbrě´te.	the elder then buried the body of the saint where he found her
458:	ʾi vъzvráti se vъ monas҄tírь slávešti ʾi pojúšti b҃a.	and he returned to the monastery praising and singing to God
459:	nь^ ʾigúmenь ʾıʾwánnь obrě´te mnwgaa prěgrěšénïa vъ monas҄tíri, ʾjakóže rč҄e st҃a.	but abbot John found many sins in the monastery, as the saint said
460:	támo bw` vъ tom mostíri skončá se starcь zosimâ .r҃, lě´t҄. stárosti,	the elder Zosima passed away there in that monastery (being) 100 years old
461:	Sï´a sutь dě´la bludnici ljúbymici.	These are the deeds of the harlot, my dear
462:	sȉ sut҄ dobrodě´teli ʾouničižénïe ženỳ.	these are the virtues of a despicable woman
463:	bludnica po ʾistíně bě̏,	she was truly a harlot
464:	nь̏ ʾi velíkye dobrodětelïe єˇe, spdobyše ju vъ crs҄tvy nbs҄němь.	but also her great virtues made her worthy for (in) the Kingdom of Heaven
465:	grě´šnaa bě̏,	she was sinful
466:	nь^ ʾi pokaánïemь sp҃sé se.	but she saved herself by penance
467:	zanè da vidímь kako pósti se.	so that we see her fasting
468:	da vdímь [káko] trúdi se.	so (that) we see how she worked
469:	ne bě li tȁa grěšni[ca];	wasnʹt she a sinner?
470:	ne bě̏ li ʾi tȁ ʾuničížena;	wasnʹt she contemptous?
471:	ségo radì ʾi ʾí my̏ da pokaém se ʾw grěsě´x našix.	for this reason, also we should repent about our sins
472:	ʾi da ne pádemь vъ wtčaánye, ăšte ʾi ʾjakóže peskь mórʹskyi, sút҄ sъgrěšenïa náša.	and we should not fall into depression, if you sins are numerous as the sand of the sea
473:	ně´s҄ ni ʾєdínь grě´x ʾidéže bolitь mls҄tь bž҃ï´a.	there is no sin, which surpasses (?) the mercy of God
474:	nižè єs҄ nikoe prěgrě´šenïe, ʾíže ne ʾispravljáet se pokaánïemь.	nor is there any transgression, which cannot be amended by penance
475:	prïémlet҄ b҃ъ pokaánïemь vъsákomu.	God accepts the penance of anyone
476:	tъčïju prilěžne da ʾwbrátim se.	(he needs) only to turn away (from the sin) accordingly
477:	sъ vъsem srdcemь da kaєˇm se.	let us repent with all heart
478:	ʾi prïémletь nas҄ b҃ъ.	and God will accept us
479:	ʾjako єs҄ mls҄rdь ʾi mng҄o mls҄tívь.	because he is gracious and very merciful
480:	ʾi da ne gl҃emь ʾjako da tvorim grě´xy mnógy, ʾi poslěžde xoštem kaáti se.	and let us not say that we should do many sins and afterwards we will repent
481:	ʾjako kTo trьžьsTvuetь táko sp҃senïe ʾєgò, ne spdobljáetь b҃ъ tákovago pokaati se.	who makes such a trade out of salvation, God does not make him worthy to repent
482:	ʾi čtô vě´mь ăšte ʾi do vč҄era ʾumrem;	and do we know, whether we will not die until the evening?
483:	ʾilì kogda razuměĭmь čás҄ sъmrъ´ti našeì,	or when we will know the hour of our death?
484:	sego rad` povelě` g҃ь vъ st҃mь ʾєѵg҄lïi,	that is why the Lord said in the holy Gospel:
485:	bditè, ʾjako ne věstě dn҃ь, nì čás҄, vъ nže sn҃ь čl҃čsky prïídet҄,	Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming (Mt 25:13 NKJV)
486:	ʾi ponéže ne věmi čas҄ sъmrъ`ti nášei, da ne lénim se sp҃sénïa nášego.	and because we do not know the hour of our death, let us not be lazy about our salvation
487:	da ne wtčaím se dobroti dš҃i našeì.	let us not despair about the good of our souls
488:	zanè lě´nostь nikogdà dóbro ne ʾispravljáetь.	because sloth never does any good
489:	nìkogdà bl҃go ne sъvrъ´šaetь. nìže tělésnoe nìže dš҃evnoe.	it never finishes any good: neither corporeal, nor spiritual
490:	ʾi ʾjakóže ktô ăšte ʾwblě´nit se nivě` svoʾeì ʾilì lozíju svoeˇmu ʾi ne ʾwkopaváetь ju, pogubljáetь se wt trъ´nïemь ʾi býlïemь	(and) as when someone is lazy on his acre or in his vineyard and does not cultivate it, it is lost to thorns and weed
491:	táko єs҄ ʾi vъ dš҃i vъsákomu xrs҄tï´áninu.	so it is also with the soul of every Christian
492:	ʾєgdà ʾwblě´nit se čl҃kь dělánïju bž҃ı´ju ʾi prinošénïe dš҃i ʾєgò, ʾábïe pogýbaetь dš҃a čl҃ku ʾwnómu wt pomýšlenïa zlȁ, wt mъčtanïa běsw´vska. ʾi wt ʾína naxóždenïa lukava.	when a human is lazy in divine works and in helping his soul, suddenly his soul is lost to that man because of bad thoughts, of devilish dreams, and other evil ideas
493:	ségo radì podbaetь ne leniti se dóbroTi dš҃e nášei,	that is why it is good not to be lazy about the goodness of our soul
494:	ʾi gl҃émь,	and (it is not good to) speak:

496:	ʾi zaуt҄ra xoštem pokaáti se.	and tomorrow we will repent
497:	vъ ʾjunosti nášei da sъgrěšenïe tvorim,	let us sin in our youth
498:	ʾi vъ stárosti nášei xoštemь kaáti se.	and we will repent in our old age
499:	zanè tákova pomýšlenïa sút҄ lukavago dïávola. ʾíže dóbroti dš҃amь našim ne xóštet҄.	because such thoughts are from the evil Devil, who does not want the good for our souls
500:	ăšte vъ juˇnosti nášei ne xóštem pokaáti se, ʾidež҄ možem rábotati kánona dx҃ovnika nášego,	if we will not repent in our youth, where we can work according to our religion (regulations of our clergy ?)
	káko pokaém se vъ stárosti našeì ʾidéže ne moštʹni tělesem nášeimь.	then, how we will (be able to) repent in our old age, when we are bodily weak?
	ĭže ne móžemь nižè pokaáti se, nižè póstiti se. nižè bdě´ti nižè ʾinì trud tvóriti grě´x radì nášix.	then, we can neither repent, nor fast, nor stay awake, nor perform any work for the sake of our sins
501:	nnja ʾidéže ʾimami vrě´me.	(it is) now, when we have time
502:	nn҃ja da pokaém se vъsáko.	(it is) now (the time) to do any penance
503:	dns҄ь ʾidéže tvorímь grě´xy. dns҄ь ʾispovědaím se,	today we sin, today we confess
504:	zanè ʾjakož҄ glet҄ prěmǫ´dri solomonь,	because, as the most wise Solomon says:
	ne vě´mi čtô ráditь zaуt҄rà.	we know not what (will be there) to do tomorrow (cf. Preacher 7:14)
505:	sȉréčь ne vě´mi čtô xóštet҄ býti dáže do ʾutrà,	that is, we do not know, what will be even tomorrow
506:	da ne ʾjavljáemь sebe ʾjako besъmrъ`tny.	let us not consider ourselves to be deathless
507:	da ne sъgrěšaemь ʾjako ʾє´že ne xoštem ʾumréti kogda.	let us not sin as if we were not ever going to die
508:	nь^ razúměvaímь ʾjako krátkь ʾi vrě´meny єs҄ žívotь náš҄.	but let us understand that our life is short and temporal
	da ʾispravim sámi sebě.	let us mend ourselves
509:	da wtvrátim volju nášu vъ bl҃goe.	let us turn our will to good
510:	da ʾizměnim ʾoumýšlenïa náša kъ polʹzy dš҃i nášei,	let us change our thoughts for the profit of our soul
511:	ne pomýšljaimь tъkmo káko ʾwbógatiti se. ʾilì káko ʾwblě´šti se. ʾilì káko pítati se.	Let us not think only about how to get rich or clothe or feed ourselves
512:	nь^ páče množae da pomišljáimь káko ʾugóditi x҃u. káko da sъvrъ´šim dobrodě´telь. káko da ʾulučim crs҄tvïe nbs҄noe.	but let us think more about how to please Christ, how to gain virtue, how to receive the Kingdom of Heaven
513:	zanè ʾi g҃ь táko námь zápověda vъ st҄mь ʾєѵg҄lïi	because thus tells us the Lord in the Holy Gospel
514:	ʾi gl҃etь.	and He says:
515:	ne pécete s҄ dš҃eju vášeju štô ʾjastè ʾilì čtô pïéte nìže tělom vášimь vъ čtô ʾoblě´cěte s҄.	do not worry in your souls, what you will eat˸ or about your body, what you will wear (Lk 12:22)
516:	ne dš҃a li bólše єs҄ píšti ʾi tělo ʾoděždy;	is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? (23)
517:	sy̏reč ne pomýšljaíte vъnutrъ dš҃ax vášix čtô jáste ʾilì pïete,	that is: do not worry inside your souls, what you will eat or drink
518:	nižè ʾiměíte pomýšlenïa vъ čtô ʾoblě´čete telěsi vášego.	nor think of in what you clothe your body
519:	něs҄ lì dš҃a váša bólšaa wt ʾásTïa.	is not the soul more than food?

522:	ʾi pakỳ povelě` po dólě g҃ь,	and again, he says below:
523:	vъzrite na ptici nbs҄ny,	look at the heavenly birds (Lk 12:24)
