Merilo Pravednoye at Wikisource |
Merílo Právednoye or Just Measure (lit. 'measure of righteousness'; Russian: Мерило Праведное, Church Slavonic: мѣрило праведноѥ) is a Russian collection of writings from the late 13th or early 14th century, preserved in the copies of the 14th to the 16th centuries. The name was given in modern literature, taken from the first words of this text: "this books is just measure, true weighing..." ("siya knigi merilo pravednoye, izves istin`nyi..." or "сиѩ книги мѣрило праведноѥ. извѣсъ истиньныи..."). Just Measure was written in Church Slavonic and Old Russian.[1]
