- Раско́льников сиде́л, смотре́л неподви́жно, не отрыва́ясь; мысль его́ переходи́ла в грёзы, в созерца́ние; он ни о чём не ду́мал, но кака́я-то тоска́ волнова́ла его́ и му́чила.
- Raskólʹnikov sidél, smotrél nepodvížno, ne otryvájasʹ; myslʹ jevó perexodíla v grjózy, v sozercánije; on ni o čom ne dúmal, no kakája-to toská volnovála jevó i múčila.
- Raskolnikov sat there, unmoving, staring fixedly. His thought passed into dreams, into contemplation; he did not think about anything, but some melancholy worried and tormented him.
