The Cloud of Unknowing / Облако неведения
→This book is distinguished in seventy chapters and five. Of the which chapters, the last chapter of all teacheth some certain tokens by the which a soul may verily prove whether he be called of God to be a worker in this work or none.
0 Эта книга издаётся в семидесяти главах и пяти. В них всех до последней есть некие знаки, которые укажут сможет ли какая душа истинно доказать призвана ли она Богом стать работником в этой работе или нет.
→For else it accordeth nothing to him. And over this I charge thee and I beseech thee by the authority of charity, that if any such shall read it, write it, or speak it, or else hear it be read or spoken, that thou charge him as I do thee, for to take him time to read it, speak it, write it, or hear it, all over. For peradventure there is some matter therein in the beginning or in the middle, the which is hanging, and not fully declared where it standeth: and if it be not there, it is soon after, or else in the end. Wherefore if a man saw one matter and not another, peradventure he might lightly be led into error; and therefore in eschewing of this error, both in thyself and in all other, I pray thee for charity do as I say thee.
0 Иным же не давай ничего. И более, заклинаю и умоляю тебя, если кто прочтёт, напишет или расскажет, что читал или услышал, тогда предостереги и ты его как я тебя, чтобы прочёл или услышал всё до конца. Легко впасть в непонимание зная начало или середину, но не зная всего. Итак: если человек знает одно но не знает другого может легко впасть в заблуждение; и значит избегай этой ошибки и ты сам и других наставляй как я наставляю тебя.
→IN the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost! I charge thee and I beseech thee, with as much power and virtue as the bond of charity is sufficient to suffer, whatsoever thou be that this book shalt have in possession, either by property, either by keeping, by bearing as messenger, or else by borrowing, that in as much as in thee is by will and advisement, neither thou read it, nor write it, nor speak it, nor yet suffer it be read, written, or spoken, of any or to any but if it be of such one, or to such one, that hath by thy supposing in a true will and by an whole intent purposed him to be a perfect follower of Christ not only in active living, but in the sovereignest point of contemplative living the which is possible by grace for to be come to in this present life of a perfect soul yet abiding in this deadly body; and thereto that doth that in him is, and by thy supposing hath done long time before, for to able him to contemplative living by the virtuous means of active living.
0 Во имя Отца и Сына и Святого Духа! Заклинаю и умоляю тебя всей силой и добродетелью...
