Notes on this text (3)

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.
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.

1 Двана́десѧти лѣ́тъ бѣ̀ манассі́а, є҆гда̀ ца́рствовати нача̀, и҆ пѧтьдесѧ́тъ пѧ́ть лѣ́тъ ца́рствова во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ:

1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

2 сотвори́ же лꙋка́вое пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ по всѣ̑мъ ме́рзостемъ ꙗ҆зы́ческимъ, и҆̀хже и҆стребѝ гдⷭ҇ь ѿ лица̀ сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ:

2 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, after the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.

3 и҆ возвратѝ и҆ созда̀ высѡ́каѧ, ꙗ҆̀же раскопа̀ є҆зекі́а ѻ҆те́цъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ состро́и кꙋмі́ры ваалі́мꙋ, и҆ сотворѝ дꙋбра̑вы, и҆ поклони́сѧ всемꙋ̀ во́инствꙋ небе́сномꙋ, и҆ послꙋжѝ и҆̀мъ,

3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he raised up altars for the Baals, made Asheroth, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.

4 и҆ созда̀ ѻ҆лтари̑ въ домꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ни, ѡ҆ не́мже гл҃а гдⷭ҇ь: во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ бꙋ́детъ и҆́мѧ моѐ во вѣ́ки:

4 He built altars in Yahweh’s house, of which Yahweh said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”

5 созда́ же же́ртвенники всемꙋ̀ во́инствꙋ небе́сномꙋ во двою̀ дво́рѣхъ до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ.

5 He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of Yahweh’s house.

6 То́й же проведѐ ча̑да своѧ̑ чрез̾ ѻ҆́гнь во ᲂу҆до́ли веенно́мли и҆ вража́ше (со жрє́бїи), и҆ послѣ́доваше гада́нїємъ, и҆ волхвова́нїємъ слꙋжа́ше, и҆ и҆мѣ́ѧше чревоволше́бники и҆ ѡ҆баѧ́нники, и҆ мнѡ́га лꙋка̑ваѧ сотворѝ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, да прогнѣ́ваетъ є҆го̀:

6 He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits and with wizards. He did much evil in Yahweh’s sight, to provoke him to anger.

7 и҆стꙋка́ны же и҆ слїѧ̑нны ѡ҆́бразы сотворѝ и҆ поста́ви въ домꙋ̀ бж҃їи, ѡ҆ не́мже гл҃а бг҃ъ къ даві́дꙋ и҆ къ соломѡ́нꙋ сы́нꙋ є҆гѡ̀: въ домꙋ̀ се́мъ и҆ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, є҆го́же и҆збра́хъ ѿ всѣ́хъ колѣ́нъ і҆и҃левыхъ, положꙋ̀ и҆́мѧ моѐ во вѣ́къ,

7 He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in God’s house, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name forever.

8 и҆ не приложꙋ̀ подви́гнꙋти но́гꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ ѿ землѝ, ю҆́же преда́хъ ѻ҆тцє́мъ и҆́хъ, то́кмѡ а҆́ще сохранѧ́тъ сотвори́ти всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же повелѣ́хъ и҆̀мъ, по всемꙋ̀ зако́нꙋ и҆ повелѣ́нїємъ и҆ сꙋдьба́мъ, рꙋко́ю мѡѷсе́овою.

8 I will not any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law, the statutes, and the ordinances given by Moses.”

9 И҆ прельстѝ манассі́а і҆ꙋ́дꙋ и҆ живꙋ́щихъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, да сотворѧ́тъ лꙋка́вое па́че всѣ́хъ ꙗ҆зы̑къ, и҆̀хже и҆спрове́рже гдⷭ҇ь ѿ лица̀ сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ.

9 Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did more evil than did the nations whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel.

10 И҆ гл҃а гдⷭ҇ь къ манассі́и и҆ къ лю́демъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не послꙋ́шаша.

10 Yahweh spoke to Manasseh and to his people, but they didn’t listen.

11 И҆ наведѐ гдⷭ҇ь на ни́хъ нача́льники во́євъ царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска, и҆ ꙗ҆́ша манассі́ю во ᲂу҆́захъ, и҆ свѧза́ша є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆кѡ́вы ножны́ми, и҆ ѿведо́ша въ вавѷлѡ́нъ.

11 Therefore Yahweh brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.

12 И҆ є҆гда̀ ѡ҆ѕло́бленъ бы́сть, взыска̀ лицѐ гдⷭ҇а бг҃а своегѡ̀, и҆ смири́сѧ ѕѣлѡ̀ пред̾ лице́мъ бг҃а ѻ҆тє́цъ свои́хъ,

12 When he was in distress, he begged Yahweh his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

13 и҆ помоли́сѧ къ немꙋ̀ и҆ послꙋ́ша є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ᲂу҆слы́ша во́пль є҆гѡ̀, и҆ возвратѝ є҆го̀ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ на ца́рство є҆гѡ̀: и҆ позна̀ манассі́а, ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь то́й є҆́сть бг҃ъ.

13 He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh was God.

14 И҆ по си́хъ созда̀ стѣ́нꙋ внѣ̀ гра́да даві́дова ѿ лі́вы къ ю҆́гꙋ въ пото́цѣ и҆ ко вхо́дꙋ вра́тъ ры́бныхъ, и҆сходѧ́щымъ врата́ми сꙋ́щими ѡ҆́крестъ въ высотꙋ̀, и҆ возвы́си ѕѣлѡ̀: и҆ поста́ви нача́льники во́ємъ во всѣ́хъ градѣ́хъ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ стѣна́тыхъ,

14 Now after this, he built an outer wall to David’s city on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate. He encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height; and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.

15 и҆ ѿѧ́тъ бо́ги чꙋжды̑ѧ и҆ і҆́дѡлы ѿ до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ, и҆ всѧ̑ ѻ҆лтари̑, ꙗ҆̀же созда̀ въ горѣ̀ до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ и҆ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, и҆ и҆зве́рже всѧ̑ во́нъ и҆з̾ гра́да.

15 He took away the foreign gods and the idol out of Yahweh’s house, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of Yahweh’s house and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.

16 И҆ па́ки воздви́же ѻ҆лта́рь гдⷭ҇ень, и҆ пожрѐ на то́мъ же́ртвꙋ спⷭ҇нїѧ и҆ хвале́нїѧ, и҆ заповѣ́да і҆ꙋ́дѣ, да слꙋ́жатъ гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ.

16 He built up Yahweh’s altar, and offered sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving on it, and commanded Judah to serve Yahweh, the God of Israel.

17 Но є҆щѐ лю́дїе жрѧ́хꙋ на высо́кихъ, ѻ҆ба́че гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ своемꙋ̀.

17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, but only to Yahweh their God.

18 Прѡ́чаѧ же слове́съ манассі́иныхъ, и҆ моли́тва є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́же къ бг҃ꙋ, и҆ словеса̀ прови́дѧщихъ, и҆̀же глаго́лахꙋ къ немꙋ̀ во и҆́мѧ гдⷭ҇а бг҃а і҆и҃лева,

18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.

19 сѐ, во словесѣ́хъ моли́твы є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆слы́ша є҆гѡ̀, и҆ всѝ грѣсѝ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ѿстꙋплє́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ мѣста̀, на ни́хже созида̀ высѡ́каѧ, и҆ сотворѝ та́мѡ дꙋбра̑вы и҆ и҆зва̑ѧннаѧ, пре́жде не́же ѡ҆брати́тисѧ є҆мꙋ̀, сѐ, пи̑сана сꙋ́ть во словесѣ́хъ прови́дѧщихъ.

19 His prayer also, and how God listened to his request, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places and set up the Asherah poles and the engraved images before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai.

20 Оу҆́спе же манассі́а со ѻ҆тцы̑ свои́ми, и҆ погребо́ша є҆го̀ въ садꙋ̀ до́мꙋ є҆гѡ̀. И҆ воцари́сѧ вмѣ́стѡ є҆гѡ̀ сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀ а҆мѡ́нъ.

20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his place.

21 Два́десѧти двꙋ̀ лѣ́тъ бѣ̀ а҆мѡ́нъ, є҆гда̀ ца́рствовати нача̀, и҆ два̀ лѣ̑та ца́рствова во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ,

21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.

22 и҆ сотворѝ лꙋка́вое пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, ꙗ҆́коже творѧ́ше манассі́а ѻ҆те́цъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ всѣ̑мъ і҆́дѡлѡмъ, и҆̀хже сотворѝ манассі́а ѻ҆те́цъ є҆гѡ̀, пожрѐ а҆мѡ́нъ и҆ послꙋжѝ и҆̀мъ:

22 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.

23 и҆ не смири́сѧ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, ꙗ҆́коже смири́сѧ манассі́а ѻ҆те́цъ є҆гѡ̀, занѐ сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀ а҆мѡ́нъ ᲂу҆мно́жи грѣхѝ.

23 He didn’t humble himself before Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more.

24 И҆ нападо́ша на́нь рабѝ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ᲂу҆би́ша є҆го̀ въ домꙋ̀ є҆гѡ̀.

24 His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.

25 И҆ ᲂу҆би́ша лю́дїе землѝ напа́дшихъ на царѧ̀ а҆мѡ́на, и҆ поста́виша лю́дїе землѝ царѧ̀ і҆ѡсі́ю сы́на є҆гѡ̀ вмѣ́стѡ є҆гѡ̀.

25 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.

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).

Quotes verse 33:12 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture II)
Manasses also was utterly wicked, who sawed Isaiah asunder, and was defiled with all kinds of idolatries, and filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; but having been led captive to Babylon he used his experience of misfortune for a healing course of repentance: for the Scripture saith that Manasses humbled himself before the Lord, and prayed, and the Lord heard …
