1 Сицєва̀ ᲂу҆̀бо и҆мꙋ́ще ѡ҆бѣтѡва́нїѧ, ѽ, возлю́бленнїи, ѡ҆чи́стимъ себѐ ѿ всѧ́кїѧ скве́рны пло́ти и҆ дꙋ́ха, творѧ́ще ст҃ы́ню въ стра́сѣ бж҃їи. 2 Вмѣсти́те ны̀: ни є҆ди́наго ѡ҆би́дѣхомъ, ни є҆ди́наго и҆стли́хомъ, ни є҆ди́наго лихои́мствовахомъ. 3 Не на ѡ҆сꙋжде́нїе глаго́лю: пре́жде бо рѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ сердца́хъ на́шихъ є҆стѐ, во є҆́же ᲂу҆мре́ти съ ва́ми и҆ сожи́ти. 4 Мно́го мѝ дерзнове́нїе къ ва́мъ, мно́га мѝ похвала̀ ѡ҆ ва́съ: и҆спо́лнихсѧ ᲂу҆тѣ́хи, преизбы́точествꙋю ра́достїю ѡ҆ всѧ́цѣй печа́ли на́шей. 5 И҆́бо прише́дшымъ на́мъ въ македо́нїю, ни є҆ди́нагѡ и҆мѣ̀ поко́ѧ пло́ть на́ша, но во все́мъ скорбѧ́ще: внѣꙋ́дꙋ бра̑ни, внꙋтрьꙋ́дꙋ боѧ̑зни. 6 Но ᲂу҆тѣша́ѧй смирє́нныѧ, ᲂу҆тѣ́ши на́съ бг҃ъ прише́ствїемъ ті́товымъ, 7 не то́кмѡ же прише́ствїемъ є҆гѡ̀, но и҆ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїемъ, и҆́мже ᲂу҆тѣ́шисѧ ѡ҆ ва́съ, повѣ́даѧ на́мъ ва́ше жела́нїе, ва́ше рыда́нїе, ва́шꙋ ре́вность по мнѣ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ мѝ па́че возра́доватисѧ. 8 Ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще и҆ ѡ҆скорби́хъ ва́съ посла́нїемъ, не раска́юсѧ, а҆́ще и҆ раска́ѧлъ бы́хъ сѧ̀: ви́ждꙋ бо̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ посла́нїе ѻ҆́но, а҆́ще и҆ къ часꙋ̀, ѡ҆скорбѝ ва́съ. 9 Нн҃ѣ ра́дꙋюсѧ, не ꙗ҆́кѡ ско́рбни бы́сте, но ꙗ҆́кѡ ѡ҆скорби́стесѧ въ покаѧ́нїе: ѡ҆скорбѣ́сте бо̀ по бз҃ѣ, да̀ ни въ че́мже ѡ҆тщетите́сѧ ѿ на́съ. 10 Печа́ль бо̀, ꙗ҆́же по бз҃ѣ, покаѧ́нїе нераска́ѧнно во спⷭ҇нїе содѣ́ловаетъ, а҆ (сегѡ̀) мі́ра печа́ль сме́рть содѣ́ловаетъ. 11 Се́ бо сїѐ са́мое, є҆́же по бз҃ѣ ѡ҆скорби́тисѧ ва́мъ, коли́ко содѣ́ла въ ва́съ тща́нїе; но ѿвѣ́тъ; но негодова́нїе, но стра́хъ, но вожделѣ́нїе, но ре́вность, но ѿмще́нїе; Во все́мъ предста́висте себѐ чи̑сты бы́ти въ ве́щи. 12 А҆́ще бо и҆ писа́хъ ва́мъ, не ѡ҆би́дѣвшагѡ ра́ди, нижѐ ѡ҆би́димагѡ ра́ди, но за є҆́же ꙗ҆ви́тисѧ въ ва́съ тща́нїю на́шемꙋ, є҆́же ѡ҆ ва́съ пред̾ бг҃омъ. 13 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди ᲂу҆тѣ́шихомсѧ ѡ҆ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїи ва́шемъ: ли́шше же па́че возра́довахомсѧ ѡ҆ ра́дости ті́товѣ, ꙗ҆́кѡ поко́исѧ дꙋ́хъ є҆гѡ̀ ѿ всѣ́хъ ва́съ: 14 ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще что̀ є҆мꙋ̀ ѡ҆ ва́съ похвали́хсѧ, не посрами́хсѧ: но ꙗ҆́кѡ всѧ̑ вои́стиннꙋ глаго́лахомъ ва́мъ, та́кѡ и҆ похвале́нїе на́ше, є҆́же къ ті́тꙋ, и҆́стинно бы́сть: 15 и҆ ᲂу҆тро́ба є҆гѡ̀ и҆́злиха къ ва́мъ є҆́сть, воспомина́ющагѡ всѣ́хъ ва́съ послꙋша́нїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ со стра́хомъ и҆ тре́петомъ прїѧ́сте є҆го̀. 16 Ра́дꙋюсѧ ᲂу҆̀бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ во все́мъ дерза́ю въ ва́съ.

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).
Again he raiseth the discourse about love, mitigating the harshness of his rebuke. For since he had convicted and reproached them as being beloved indeed, yet not loving in an equal degree, but breaking away from his love and mixing up with other pestilent fellows; again he softens the vehemence of his rebuke, saying, "Make room for us," that is, …

For, behold, this selfsame thing that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you!" Consequently the Stoics may defend themselves by replying, that sorrow is indeed useful for repentance of sin, but that this can have no place in the mind of the wise man, inasmuch as no sin attaches to him of which he could …

This Paul also clearly declared, when he said, "The sorrow of the world worketh death, but godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, not to be repented of." These then He too Himself calls blessed, whose sorrow is of that kind; yet not simply them that sorrow did He designate, but them that sorrow intensely.

… spectacle to angels and men, and pressing onwards for the prize of his high calling, --very joyfully do we with the eyes of faith behold him rejoicing with them that rejoice, and weeping with them that weep; though hampered by fightings without and fears within; desiring to depart and to be with Christ; longing to see the Romans, that he …

Declaring this, Paul said, "Without were fightings, within were fears;" and, "In perils among false brethren;" and in his discourse to the Milesians too He said, "Also of you shall some arise speaking perverse things;" and He Himself too said, "The man's foes shall be they of his own household." But when He said, "It must needs be," it is …
