The present publication offers 2 prayers out of the 50 related to sick persons and contained in the Euchologium Sinaiticum Slavicum (a manuscript from the 10th/11th century). These texts, concerning mainly psychological pathologies, have not yet been properly studied, albeit they embody a peculiar importance both for the understanding of illnesses in ancient Christian communities and for the way how they were treated in those days. This work, thus, presents first the prayers in their Old Slavonic version accompanied by the Greek version. We thought it opportune to add a Czech translation with basic references to the New Testament; a short commentary touching upon cultural and social milieux envisaged by the texts will then follow.
