In order to quantify the degree of lexical divergence of the East Slavic languages, three fragments from the Kyiv chronicle of the early 12th cen. The Tale of Bygone Years (Old Russian language) and three articles from the Statute of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (Old Belarusian / Old Ukrainian language; printed edition of 1588 in Vilna) are compared with translations into modern East Slavic languages. It is shown that the divergence of related languages increases over time, therefore, in particular, modern equivalent East Slavic translations of fragments of the chronicle are lexically closer to the original sources of the 12th cen. and among themselves than the translations of the articles of the Statute in relation to the primary sources of 1588 and to each other. Of the three languages, Belarusian and Ukrainian are lexically closest to each other; in comparison with them, the pairs “Belarusian – Russian” and “Ukrainian – Russian” are at a much greater distance.
