1 Ѡ҆ і҆дѡложе́ртвенныхъ же вѣ́мы: ꙗ҆́кѡ всѝ ра́зꙋмъ и҆́мамы. Ра́зꙋмъ (ᲂу҆́бѡ) кичи́тъ, а҆ любы̀ созида́етъ. 2 А҆́ще ли кто̀ мни́тсѧ вѣ́дѣти что̀, не ᲂу҆̀ что̀ разꙋмѣ̀, ꙗ҆́коже подоба́етъ разꙋмѣ́ти: 3 а҆́ще же кто̀ лю́битъ бг҃а, се́й позна́нъ бы́сть ѿ негѡ̀. 4 Ѡ҆ ꙗ҆де́нїи же і҆дѡложе́ртвенныхъ вѣ́мы, ꙗ҆́кѡ і҆́дѡлъ ничто́же є҆́сть въ мі́рѣ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ никто́же бг҃ъ и҆́нъ, то́кмѡ є҆ди́нъ. 5 А҆́ще бо и҆ сꙋ́ть глаго́лемїи бо́зи, и҆лѝ на небесѝ, и҆лѝ на землѝ: ꙗ҆́коже сꙋ́ть бо́зи мно́зи и҆ госпо́дїе мно́зи: 6 но на́мъ є҆ди́нъ бг҃ъ ѻ҆ц҃ъ, и҆з̾ негѡ́же всѧ̑, и҆ мы̀ ᲂу҆ негѡ̀, и҆ є҆ди́нъ гдⷭ҇ь і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́съ, и҆́мже всѧ̑, и҆ мы̀ тѣ́мъ. 7 Но не во всѣ́хъ ра́зꙋмъ: нѣ́цыи же со́вѣстїю і҆́дѡльскою да́же досе́лѣ ꙗ҆́коже і҆дѡложе́ртвенное ꙗ҆дѧ́тъ, и҆ со́вѣсть и҆́хъ, немощна̀ сꙋ́щи, скверни́тсѧ. 8 Бра́шно же на́съ не поставлѧ́етъ пред̾ бг҃омъ: ниже́ бо а҆́ще ꙗ҆́мы, и҆збы́точествꙋемъ: нижѐ а҆́ще не ꙗ҆́мы, лиша́емсѧ. 9 Блюди́те же, да не ка́кѡ вла́сть ва́ша сїѧ̀ преткнове́нїе бꙋ́детъ немощны́мъ. 10 А҆́ще бо кто̀ ви́дитъ тѧ̀, и҆мꙋ́ща ра́зꙋмъ, въ тре́бищи возлежа́ща, не со́вѣсть ли є҆гѡ̀ немощна̀ сꙋ́щи сози́ждетсѧ і҆дѡложе́ртвєннаѧ ꙗ҆́сти; 11 И҆ поги́бнетъ немощны́й бра́тъ въ твое́мъ ра́зꙋмѣ, є҆гѡ́же ра́ди хрⷭ҇то́съ ᲂу҆́мре. 12 Та́кожде согрѣша́юще въ бра́тїю и҆ бїю́ще и҆́хъ со́вѣсть не́мощнꙋ сꙋ́щꙋ, во хрⷭ҇та̀ согрѣша́ете. 13 Тѣ́мже а҆́ще бра́шно соблазнѧ́етъ бра́та моего̀, не и҆́мамъ ꙗ҆́сти мѧ́са во вѣ́ки, да не соблазню̀ бра́та моего̀.

Notes on this text (3)
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- Exodus 36–39 follow the Septuagint's order; the digital source has no verse divisions there, so Exodus 36:8–end and chapters 37, 38 and 39 each appear as one block.
- Not shown: the lectionary pericope numbers (зача́ло) and the marginal glosses of the digital source. The Prayer of Manasseh stands at the end of 2 Chronicles (36:24), as in the Slavonic Bible; the prologue of Sirach and the opening verse of Lamentations are joined to verse 1.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
It is necessary first to say what the meaning of this passage is: for so shall we readily comprehend the Apostle's discourse. For he that sees a charge brought against any one, except he first perceive the nature of the offence will not understand what is said. What then is it of which he was then accusing the Corinthians?

And for this reason Paul exclaimed, "Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth:" not that he meant to inveigh against a true knowledge of God, for in that case he would have accused himself; but, because he knew that some, puffed up by the pretence of knowledge, fall away from the love of God, and imagine that they themselves are perfect, …
For now, filled with my punishment, I had begun to desire to seem wise; yet mourned I not, but rather was puffed up with knowledge. For where was that charity building upon the "foundation" of humility, "which is Jesus Christ"?

He again, to put an end to his fears and the other's disputatiousness, says, "For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink." Is it by these, he means, that we are to be approved? As he says in another passage too, "Neither if we eat are we the better, neither if we eat not are we the worse." …

For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; yet to us there is One God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and One Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through Him.
