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 Во дне́хъ ѻ҆́нѣхъ разболѣ́сѧ є҆зекі́а (ца́рь) до сме́рти. И҆ вни́де къ немꙋ̀ и҆са́їа прⷪ҇ро́къ сы́нъ а҆мѡ́совъ и҆ речѐ къ немꙋ̀: та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: заповѣ́ждь до́мꙋ твоемꙋ̀, ᲂу҆́мреши бо ты̀ и҆ не бꙋ́деши жи́въ.
1 EN aquellos días cayó Ezechîas enfermo de muerte, y vino á él Isaías profeta hijo de Amós, y díjole: Jehová dice así: Dispón de tu casa, porque has de morir, y no vivirás.
1 In those days Hezekiah was sick and dying. Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, “Yahweh says, ‘Set your house in order; for you will die, and not live.’”
2 И҆ ѡ҆братѝ є҆зекі́а лицѐ своѐ ко стѣнѣ̀ и҆ помоли́сѧ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ, глаго́лѧ:
2 Entonces volvió él su rostro á la pared, y oró á Jehová, y dijo:
2 Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Yahweh, saying,
3 гдⷭ҇и помѧнѝ нн҃ѣ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆́стиною ходи́хъ пред̾ тобо́ю и҆ се́рдцемъ соверше́ннымъ, и҆ ᲂу҆гѡ́днаѧ пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма твои́ма сотвори́хъ. И҆ пла́касѧ є҆зекі́а пла́чемъ вели́кимъ.
3 Ruégote, oh Jehová, ruégote hagas memoria de que he andado delante de ti en verdad é íntegro corazón, y que he hecho las cosas que te agradan. Y lloró Ezechîas con gran lloro.
3 “Remember now, Yahweh, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4 И҆ бѧ́ше и҆са́їа є҆щѐ посредѣ̀ двора̀, и҆ бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не къ немꙋ̀, гл҃ѧ:
4 Y antes que Isaías saliese hasta la mitad del patio, fué palabra de Jehová á Isaías, diciendo:
4 Before Isaiah had gone out into the middle part of the city, Yahweh’s word came to him, saying,
5 возврати́сѧ и҆ рцы̀ є҆зекі́и вождꙋ̀ люді́й мои́хъ: та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ даві́да ѻ҆тца̀ твоегѡ̀: ᲂу҆слы́шахъ моли́твꙋ твою̀ и҆ ви́дѣхъ сле́зы твоѧ̑: сѐ, а҆́зъ и҆сцѣлю̀ тѧ̀, и҆ въ де́нь тре́тїй взы́деши въ до́мъ гдⷭ҇ень:
5 Vuelve, y di á Ezechîas, príncipe de mi pueblo: Así dice Jehová, el Dios de David tu padre: Yo he oído tu oración, y he visto tus lágrimas: he aquí yo te sano; al tercer día subirás á la casa de Jehová.
5 “Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, ‘Yahweh, the God of David your father, says, “I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day, you will go up to Yahweh’s house.
6 и҆ приложꙋ̀ къ лѣ́тѡмъ твои̑мъ лѣ́тъ пѧтьна́десѧть, и҆ ѿ рꙋкѝ царѧ̀ а҆ссѷрі́йска и҆зба́влю тѧ̀ и҆ гра́дъ се́й, и҆ защищꙋ̀ гра́дъ се́й менє̀ ра́ди и҆ даві́да ра́ди раба̀ моегѡ̀.
6 Y añadiré á tus días quince años, y te libraré á ti y á esta ciudad de mano del rey de Asiria; y ampararé esta ciudad por amor de mí, y por amor de David mi siervo.
6 I will add to your days fifteen years. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.”’”
7 И҆ речѐ и҆са́їа: да во́змꙋтъ перевѧ́сло смо́квей и҆ да положа́тъ на вре́дъ, и҆ и҆сцѣлѣ́етъ.
7 Y dijo Isaías: Tomad masa de higos. Y tomándola, pusieron sobre la llaga, y sanó.
7 Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
8 И҆ речѐ є҆зекі́а ко и҆са́їи: ко́е зна́менїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆сцѣли́тъ мѧ̀ гдⷭ҇ь и҆ взы́дꙋ въ до́мъ гдⷭ҇ень въ де́нь тре́тїй;
8 Y Ezechîas había dicho á Isaías: ¿Qué señal tendré de que Jehová me sanará, y que subiré á la casa de Jehová al tercer día?
8 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “What will be the sign that Yahweh will heal me, and that I will go up to Yahweh’s house the third day?”
9 И҆ речѐ и҆са́їа: сїѐ зна́менїе ѿ гдⷭ҇а, ꙗ҆́кѡ сотвори́тъ гдⷭ҇ь сло́во, є҆́же гл҃а: (хо́щеши ли да) по́йдетъ стѣ́нь де́сѧть степе́нїй, и҆лѝ возврати́тсѧ де́сѧть степе́нїй;
9 Y respondió Isaías: Esta señal tendrás de Jehová, de que hará Jehová esto que ha dicho: ¿Avanzará la sombra diez grados, ó retrocederá diez grados?
9 Isaiah said, “This will be the sign to you from Yahweh, that Yahweh will do the thing that he has spoken: should the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?”
10 И҆ речѐ є҆зекі́а: ᲂу҆до́бно стѣ́ни ᲂу҆клони́тисѧ де́сѧть степе́нїй: нѝ, но да возврати́тсѧ стѣ́нь на де́сѧть степе́нїй вспѧ́ть.
10 Y Ezechîas respondió: Fácil cosa es que la sombra decline diez grados: pero, que la sombra vuelva atrás diez grados.
10 Hezekiah answered, “It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward ten steps. No, but let the shadow return backward ten steps.”
11 И҆ возопѝ и҆са́їа прⷪ҇ро́къ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ, и҆ возврати́сѧ стѣ́нь по числꙋ̀ наза́дъ де́сѧть степе́нїй.
11 Entonces el profeta Isaías clamó á Jehová; é hizo volver la sombra por los grados que había descendido en el reloj de Achâz, diez grados atrás.
11 Isaiah the prophet cried to Yahweh; and he brought the shadow ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the sundial of Ahaz.
12 Во вре́мѧ ѻ҆́но посла̀ марѡда́хъ валада́нъ, сы́нъ валада́новъ, ца́рь вавѷлѡ́нскїй, кни̑ги и҆ да́ры ко є҆зекі́и: слы́ша бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ разболѣ́сѧ (ца́рь) є҆зекі́а.
12 En aquel tiempo Berodach-baladán hijo de Baladán, rey de Babilonia, envió letras y presentes á Ezechîas, porque había oído que Ezechîas había caído enfermo.
12 At that time Berodach Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
13 И҆ пора́довасѧ є҆зекі́а ѡ҆ ни́хъ, и҆ показа̀ и҆̀мъ ве́сь до́мъ сво́й сокро́вищный, сребро̀ и҆ зла́то, и҆ а҆рѡма́ты и҆ є҆ле́й до́брый, и҆ до́мъ сосꙋ́дѡвъ и҆ є҆ли̑ка ѡ҆брѣто́шасѧ въ сокро́вищихъ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ не бѣ̀ мѣ́ста, є҆гѡ́же не показа̀ и҆̀мъ є҆зекі́а въ домꙋ̀ свое́мъ и҆ во все́й ѡ҆́бласти свое́й.
13 Y Ezechîas los oyó, y mostróles toda la casa de las cosas preciosas, plata, oro, y especiería, y preciosos ungüentos; y la casa de sus armas, y todo lo que había en sus tesoros: ninguna cosa quedó que Ezechîas no les mostrase, así en su casa como en todo su señorío.
13 Hezekiah listened to them, and showed them all the storehouse of his precious things—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, or in all his dominion, that Hezekiah didn’t show them.
14 И҆ вни́де и҆са́їа прⷪ҇ро́къ ко є҆зекі́и царю̀ и҆ речѐ къ немꙋ̀: что̀ глаго́лаша мꙋ́жїе сі́и, и҆ ѿкꙋ́дꙋ прїидо́ша къ тебѣ̀; и҆ речѐ є҆зекі́а: ѿ землѝ да́льнїѧ прїидо́ша ко мнѣ̀, ѿ вавѷлѡ́на.
14 Entonces el profeta Isaías vino al rey Ezechîas, y díjole: ¿Qué dijeron aquellos varones, y de dónde vinieron á ti? Y Ezechîas le respondió: De lejanas tierras han venido, de Babilonia.
14 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, “What did these men say? From where did they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, even from Babylon.”
15 И҆ речѐ: что̀ ви́дѣша въ домꙋ̀ твое́мъ; и҆ речѐ є҆зекі́а: всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка въ домꙋ̀ мое́мъ, ви́дѣша: нѣ́сть въ домꙋ̀ мое́мъ, є҆гѡ́же и҆̀мъ не показа́хъ, но и҆ ꙗ҆̀же въ сокро́вищихъ мои́хъ (ви́дѣша).
15 Y él le volvió á decir: ¿Qué vieron en tu casa? Y Ezechîas respondió: Vieron todo lo que había en mi casa; nada quedó en mis tesoros que no les mostrase.
15 He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.”
16 И҆ речѐ и҆са́їа ко є҆зекі́и: слы́ши сло́во гдⷭ҇не:
16 Entonces Isaías dijo á Ezechîas: Oye palabra de Jehová:
16 Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear Yahweh’s word.
17 сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, взѧта̑ бꙋ́дꙋтъ всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же въ домꙋ̀ твое́мъ, и҆ всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же собра́ша ѻ҆тцы̀ твоѝ до днѐ сегѡ̀, вни́дꙋтъ въ вавѷлѡ́нъ: и҆ не ѡ҆ста́нетсѧ сло́во, є҆́же речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
17 He aquí vienen días, en que todo lo que está en tu casa, y todo lo que tus padres han atesorado hasta hoy, será llevado á Babilonia, sin quedar nada, dijo Jehová.
17 ‘Behold, the days come that all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store to this day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left,’ says Yahweh.
18 И҆ сы́нове твоѝ, и҆̀же и҆зы́дꙋтъ и҆з̾ тебє̀, и҆̀хже роди́ши, во́змꙋтсѧ и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ скопцы̀ въ домꙋ̀ царѧ̀ вавѷлѡ́нскагѡ.
18 Y de tus hijos que saldrán de ti, que habrás engendrado, tomarán; y serán eunucos en el palacio del rey de Babilonia.
18 ‘They will take away some of your sons who will issue from you, whom you will father; and they will be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.’”
19 И҆ речѐ є҆зекі́а ко и҆са́їи: бла́го сло́во гдⷭ҇не є҆́же гл҃а: да бꙋ́дꙋтъ ми́ръ во дни̑ моѧ̑.
19 Entonces Ezechîas dijo á Isaías: La palabra de Jehová que has hablado, es buena. Después dijo: ¿Mas no habrá paz y verdad en mis días?
19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “Yahweh’s word which you have spoken is good.” He said moreover, “Isn’t it so, if peace and truth will be in my days?”
20 И҆ прѡ́чаѧ слове́съ є҆зекі́евыхъ, и҆ всѧ̑ си́ла є҆гѡ̀, и҆ є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ, и҆сто́чникъ и҆ водоте́чь, и҆ введѐ во́дꙋ во гра́дъ, не се́ ли, сїѧ̑ напи̑сана въ кни́зѣ слове́съ дні́й царе́й і҆ꙋ́диныхъ;
20 Lo demás de los hechos de Ezechîas, y todo su vigor, y cómo hizo el estanque, y el conducto, y metió las aguas en la ciudad, ¿no está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Judá?
20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
21 И҆ ᲂу҆́спе є҆зекі́а со ѻ҆тцы̑ свои́ми, и҆ погребе́нъ бы́сть во гра́дѣ даві́довѣ. И҆ воцари́сѧ манассі́а сы́нъ є҆гѡ̀ вмѣ́стѡ є҆гѡ̀.
21 Y durmió Ezechîas con sus padres, y reinó en su lugar Manasés su hijo.
21 Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

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).
For when he had fallen sick, Esaias said to him, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
