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.

1 Па́ѵелъ, посла́нникъ і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́въ во́лею бж҃їею, и҆ тїмоѳе́й бра́тъ, цр҃кви бж҃їей сꙋ́щей въ корі́нѳѣ, со ст҃ы́ми всѣ́ми сꙋ́щими во все́й а҆ха́їи:
1 Παῦλος, ἀπόστολος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ διὰ θελήματος Θεοῦ, καὶ Τιμόθεος ὁ ἀδελφός, τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ Θεοῦ τῇ οὔσῃ ἐν Κορίνθῳ σὺν τοῖς ἁγίοις πᾶσι τοῖς οὖσιν ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ Ἀχαΐᾳ·
2 блгⷣть ва́мъ и҆ ми́ръ ѿ бг҃а ѻ҆ц҃а̀ на́шегѡ, и҆ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀.
2 χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ Θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
3 Блгⷭ҇ве́нъ бг҃ъ и҆ ѻ҆ц҃ъ гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀, ѻ҆ц҃ъ щедро́тъ и҆ бг҃ъ всѧ́кїѧ ᲂу҆тѣ́хи,
3 Εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὁ πατὴρ τῶν οἰκτιρμῶν καὶ Θεὸς πάσης παρακλήσεως,
4 ᲂу҆тѣша́ѧй на́съ ѡ҆ всѧ́цѣй ско́рби на́шей, ꙗ҆́кѡ возмощѝ на́мъ ᲂу҆тѣ́шити сꙋ́щыѧ во всѧ́цѣй ско́рби, ᲂу҆тѣше́нїемъ, и҆́мже ᲂу҆тѣша́емсѧ са́ми ѿ бг҃а.
4 ὁ παρακαλῶν ἡμᾶς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ θλίψει ἡμῶν, εἰς τὸ δύνασθαι ἡμᾶς παρακαλεῖν τοὺς ἐν πάσῃ θλίψει διὰ τῆς παρακλήσεως ἧς παρακαλούμεθα αὐτοὶ ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ·
5 Занѐ ꙗ҆́коже и҆збы́точествꙋютъ страда̑нїѧ хрⷭ҇тѡ́ва въ на́съ, та́кѡ хрⷭ҇то́мъ и҆збы́точествꙋетъ и҆ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїе на́ше.
5 ὅτι καθὼς περισσεύει τὰ παθήματα τοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς ἡμᾶς, οὕτω διὰ Χριστοῦ περισσεύει καὶ ἡ παράκλησις ἡμῶν.
6 А҆́ще ли же скорби́мъ, ѡ҆ ва́шемъ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїи и҆ спⷭ҇нїи, дѣ́йствꙋющемсѧ въ терпѣ́нїи тѣ́хже страда́нїй, ꙗ҆̀же и҆ мы̀ стра́ждемъ:
6 εἴτε δὲ θλιβόμεθα, ὑπὲρ τῆς ὑμῶν παρακλήσεως καὶ σωτηρίας τῆς ἐνεργουμένης ἐν ὑπομονῇ τῶν αὐτῶν παθημάτων ὧν καὶ ἡμεῖς πάσχομεν, καὶ ἡ ἐλπὶς ἡμῶν βεβαία ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν·
7 и҆ ᲂу҆пова́нїе на́ше и҆звѣ́стно ѡ҆ ва́съ. А҆́ще ли ᲂу҆тѣша́емсѧ, ѡ҆ ва́шемъ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїи и҆ спⷭ҇нїи, вѣ́дѧще, занѐ ꙗ҆́коже ѡ҆́бщницы є҆стѐ страсте́мъ на́шымъ, та́кожде и҆ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїю.
7 εἴτε παρακαλούμεθα, ὑπὲρ τῆς ὑμῶν παρακλήσεως καὶ σωτηρίας, εἰδότες ὅτι ὥσπερ κοινωνοί ἐστε τῶν παθημάτων, οὕτω καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως.
8 Не бо̀ хо́щемъ ва́съ, бра́тїе, не вѣ́дѣти ѡ҆ ско́рби на́шей бы́вшей на́мъ во а҆сі́и, ꙗ҆́кѡ по премно́гꙋ (и҆) па́че си́лы ѡ҆тѧготи́хомсѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не надѣ́ѧтисѧ на́мъ и҆ жи́ти.
8 Οὐ γὰρ θέλομεν ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, ὑπὲρ τῆς θλίψεως ἡμῶν τῆς γενομένης ἡμῖν ἐν τῇ Ἀσίᾳ, ὅτι καθ᾽ ὑπερβολὴν ἐβαρήθημεν ὑπὲρ δύναμιν, ὥστε ἐξαπορηθῆναι ἡμᾶς καὶ τοῦ ζῆν·
9 Но са́ми въ себѣ̀ ѡ҆сꙋжде́нїе сме́рти и҆мѣ́хомъ, да не надѣ́ющесѧ бꙋ́демъ на сѧ̀, но на бг҃а возставлѧ́ющаго мє́ртвыѧ,
9 ἀλλὰ αὐτοὶ ἐν ἑαυτοῖς τὸ ἀπόκριμα τοῦ θανάτου ἐσχήκαμεν, ἵνα μὴ πεποιθότες ὦμεν ἐφ᾽ ἑαυτοῖς, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπὶ τῷ Θεῷ τῷ ἐγείροντι τοὺς νεκρούς·
10 и҆́же ѿ толи́кїѧ сме́рти и҆зба́вилъ ны̀ є҆́сть и҆ и҆збавлѧ́етъ, на́ньже и҆ ᲂу҆пова́хомъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ є҆щѐ и҆зба́витъ,
10 ὃς ἐκ τηλικούτου θανάτου ἐρρύσατο ἡμᾶς καὶ ῥύεται, εἰς ὃν ἠλπίκαμεν ὅτι καὶ ἔτι ῥύσεται,
11 споспѣшествꙋ́ющымъ и҆ ва́мъ по на́съ моли́твою, да ѿ мно́гихъ ли́цъ, є҆́же въ на́съ дарова́нїе, мно́гими благодари́тсѧ ѡ҆ ва́съ.
11 συνυπουργούντων καὶ ὑμῶν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν τῇ δεήσει, ἵνα ἐκ πολλῶν προσώπων τὸ εἰς ἡμᾶς χάρισμα διὰ πολλῶν εὐχαριστηθῇ ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν.
12 Похвале́нїе бо на́ше сїѐ є҆́сть, свидѣ́тельство со́вѣсти на́шеѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ простотѣ̀ и҆ чтⷭ҇отѣ̀ бж҃їей, (а҆) не въ мꙋ́дрости пло́ти, но блгⷣтїю бж҃їею жи́хомъ въ мі́рѣ, мно́жае же ᲂу҆ ва́съ.
12 Ἡ γὰρ καύχησις ἡμῶν αὕτη ἐστί, τὸ μαρτύριον τῆς συνειδήσεως ἡμῶν, ὅτι ἐν ἁπλότητι καὶ εἰλικρινείᾳ Θεοῦ, οὐκ ἐν σοφίᾳ σαρκικῇ, ἀλλ᾽ ἐν χάριτι Θεοῦ ἀνεστράφημεν ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ, περισσοτέρως δὲ πρὸς ὑμᾶς.
13 Не и҆на̑ѧ бо пи́шемъ ва́мъ, но ꙗ҆̀же чтетѐ и҆ разꙋмѣва́ете: ᲂу҆пова́ю же, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ до конца̀ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ете,
13 οὐ γὰρ ἄλλα γράφομεν ὑμῖν, ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἃ ἀναγινώσκετε ἢ καὶ ἐπιγινώσκετε, ἐλπίζω δὲ ὅτι καὶ ἕως τέλους ἐπιγνώσεσθε,
14 ꙗ҆́коже и҆ разꙋмѣ́сте на́съ ѿ ча́сти, ꙗ҆́кѡ похвале́нїе ва́мъ є҆смы̀, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ вы̀ на́мъ, въ де́нь гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀.
14 καθὼς καὶ ἐπέγνωτε ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ μέρους, ὅτι καύχημα ὑμῶν ἐσμεν, καθάπερ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἡμῶν, ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ.
15 И҆ си́мъ ᲂу҆пова́нїемъ хотѣ́хъ къ ва́мъ прїитѝ пре́жде, да вторꙋ́ю блгⷣть и҆́мате,
15 Καὶ ταύτῃ τῇ πεποιθήσει ἐβουλόμην πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐλθεῖν πρότερον, ἵνα δευτέραν χάριν ἔχητε,
16 и҆ ва́ми проитѝ въ македо́нїю, и҆ па́ки ѿ македо́нїи прїитѝ къ ва́мъ, и҆ ва́ми проводи́тисѧ во і҆ꙋде́ю.
16 καὶ δι᾽ ὑμῶν διελθεῖν εἰς Μακεδονίαν, καὶ πάλιν ἀπὸ Μακεδονίας ἐλθεῖν πρὸς ὑμᾶς καὶ ὑφ᾽ ὑμῶν προπεμφθῆναι εἰς τὴν Ἰουδαίαν.
17 Сїе́ же хотѧ̀, є҆да̀ что̀ ᲂу҆́бѡ легкото́ю дѣ́ѧхъ; И҆лѝ ꙗ҆̀же совѣщава́ю, по пло́ти совѣщава́ю, да бꙋ́детъ ᲂу҆ менє̀ є҆́же є҆́й, є҆́й, и҆ є҆́же нѝ, нѝ.
17 τοῦτο οὖν βουλόμενος μήτι ἄρα τῇ ἐλαφρίᾳ ἐχρησάμην; ἢ ἃ βουλεύομαι, κατὰ σάρκα βουλεύομαι, ἵνα ᾖ παρ᾽ ἐμοὶ τὸ ναὶ ναὶ καὶ τὸ οὒ οὔ;
18 Вѣ́ренъ же бг҃ъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ сло́во на́ше, є҆́же къ ва́мъ, не бы́сть є҆́й и҆ нѝ.
18 πιστὸς δὲ ὁ Θεὸς ὅτι ὁ λόγος ἡμῶν ὁ πρὸς ὑμᾶς οὐκ ἐγένετο ναὶ καὶ οὔ.
19 И҆́бо бж҃їй сн҃ъ і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́съ, и҆́же ᲂу҆ ва́съ на́ми проповѣ́данный, мно́ю и҆ сїлꙋа́номъ и҆ тїмоѳе́емъ, не бы́сть є҆́й и҆ нѝ, но въ не́мъ самѣ́мъ є҆́й бы́сть:
19 ὁ γὰρ τοῦ Θεοῦ υἱὸς Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς ὁ ἐν ὑμῖν δι᾽ ἡμῶν κηρυχθείς, δι᾽ ἐμοῦ καὶ Σιλουανοῦ καὶ Τιμοθέου, οὐκ ἐγένετο ναὶ καὶ οὔ, ἀλλὰ ναὶ ἐν αὐτῷ γέγονεν·
20 є҆ли̑ка бо ѡ҆бѣтѡва́нїѧ бж҃їѧ, въ то́мъ є҆́й и҆ въ то́мъ а҆ми́нь: бг҃ꙋ къ сла́вѣ на́ми.
20 ὅσαι γὰρ ἐπαγγελίαι Θεοῦ, ἐν αὐτῷ τὸ ναὶ καὶ ἐν αὐτῷ τὸ ἀμήν, τῷ Θεῷ πρὸς δόξαν δι᾽ ἡμῶν.
21 И҆звѣствꙋ́ѧй же на́съ съ ва́ми во хрⷭ҇та̀ и҆ пома́завый на́съ, бг҃ъ,
21 ὁ δὲ βεβαιῶν ἡμᾶς σὺν ὑμῖν εἰς Χριστὸν καὶ χρίσας ἡμᾶς Θεός,
22 и҆́же и҆ запечатлѣ̀ на́съ, и҆ дадѐ ѡ҆брꙋче́нїе дх҃а въ сердца̀ на̑ша.
22 ὁ καὶ σφραγισάμενος ἡμᾶς καὶ δοὺς τὸν ἀρραβῶνα τοῦ Πνεύματος ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν.
23 А҆́зъ же свидѣ́телѧ бг҃а призыва́ю на мою̀ дꙋ́шꙋ, ꙗ҆́кѡ щадѧ̀ ва́съ, ктомꙋ̀ не прїидо́хъ въ корі́нѳъ,
23 Ἐγὼ δὲ μάρτυρα τὸν Θεὸν ἐπικαλοῦμαι ἐπὶ τὴν ἐμὴν ψυχήν, ὅτι φειδόμενος ὑμῶν οὐκέτι ἦλθον εἰς Κόρινθον.
24 не ꙗ҆́кѡ ѡ҆блада́емъ вѣ́рою ва́шею, но (ꙗ҆́кѡ) споспѣ̑шницы є҆смы̀ ва́шей ра́дости: вѣ́рою бо стоитѐ.
24 οὐχ ὅτι κυριεύομεν ὑμῶν τῆς πίστεως, ἀλλὰ συνεργοί ἐσμεν τῆς χαρᾶς ὑμῶν· τῇ γὰρ πίστει ἑστήκατε.

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 meet to enquire, first, why to the former Epistle he adds a second: and what can be his reason for thus beginning with the mercies and consolation of God. Why then does he add a second Epistle?

For it is no small fruit, O Lord my God, that by many thanks should be given to Thee on our behalf, and that by many Thou shouldest be entreated for us.

Wherefore Paul also said, "I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, that we were pressed out of measure beyond strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life;" and after this again, "Who delivered us from so great deaths." Signifying therefore hereby, that they ought to be confident, though the waves rise high, and that He orders all things for good, …

Put off, by confession, the old man, which waxeth corrupt after the lusts of deceit, that ye may put on the new man, which is renewed according to knowledge of Him that created him. Get you the earnest of the Holy Spirit through faith, that ye may be able to be received into the everlasting habitations.

How then is it possible to conceive that the judgment is accomplished without the Holy Spirit, wherein the word points out that He is Himself the prize of the righteous, when instead of the earnest is given that which is perfect, and the first condemnation of sinners, when they are deprived of that which they seem to have?
