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 Слы́шите сло́во сїѐ, є҆́же гл҃а гдⷭ҇ь на вы̀, до́ме і҆и҃левъ, и҆ на всѐ пле́мѧ, є҆́же и҆зведо́хъ и҆з̾ землѝ є҆гѵ́петскїѧ, рекі́й:
1 Hear this word that Yahweh has spoken against you, children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying:
2 ва́съ то́чїю позна́хъ ѿ всѣ́хъ племе́нъ на землѝ, сегѡ̀ ра́ди ѿмщꙋ̀ на ва́съ всѧ̑ грѣхѝ ва́шѧ.
2 “I have chosen only you of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins.”
3 Є҆да̀ по́йдꙋтъ два̀ вкꙋ́пѣ всѧ́кѡ, а҆́ще не позна́ютъ себѐ;
3 Do two walk together, unless they have agreed?
4 и҆лѝ возреве́тъ ле́въ и҆з̾ дꙋбра́вы своеѧ̀, лови́твы не и҆мы́й; и҆лѝ и҆спꙋ́ститъ гла́съ сво́й льви́чищь и҆з̾ ло́жа своегѡ̀ всѧ́кѡ, а҆́ще не похи́титъ чесогѡ̀;
4 Will a lion roar in the thicket, when he has no prey? Does a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
5 и҆лѝ паде́тъ пти́ца на зе́млю без̾ ловца̀; и҆лѝ спаде́тъ прꙋгло̀ на зе́млю, а҆́ще не и҆́метъ ничесѡ́же;
5 Can a bird fall in a trap on the earth, where no snare is set for him? Does a snare spring up from the ground, when there is nothing to catch?
6 и҆лѝ возгласи́тъ трꙋба̀ во гра́дѣ, и҆ не ᲂу҆боѧ́тсѧ лю́дїе; и҆лѝ бꙋ́детъ ѕло̀ во гра́дѣ, є҆́же гдⷭ҇ь не сотворѝ;
6 Does the trumpet alarm sound in a city, without the people being afraid? Does evil happen to a city, and Yahweh hasn’t done it?
7 Поне́же не сотвори́тъ гдⷭь бг҃ъ дѣ́ла, а҆́ще не ѿкры́етъ наказа́нїѧ своегѡ̀ къ рабѡ́мъ свои̑мъ прⷪ҇ро́кѡмъ.
7 Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.
8 Ле́въ возреве́тъ, и҆ кто̀ не ᲂу҆бои́тсѧ; гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ гл҃а, и҆ кто̀ не прорече́тъ;
8 The lion has roared. Who will not fear? The Lord Yahweh has spoken. Who can but prophesy?
9 Повѣ́дите страна́мъ во а҆ссѷрі́анѣхъ и҆ во страна́хъ є҆гѵ́петскихъ и҆ рцы́те: собери́тесѧ на го́рꙋ самарі́йскꙋю и҆ ви́дите чꙋдє́снаѧ мнѡ́га средѣ̀ є҆ѧ̀ и҆ наси́льство є҆́же въ не́й.
9 Proclaim in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, “Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria, and see what unrest is in her, and what oppression is among them.”
10 И҆ не ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ̀, ꙗ҆̀же бꙋ́дꙋтъ проти́вꙋ є҆́й, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, сокро́вищствꙋющїи непра́вдꙋ и҆ стра́сть въ се́лѣхъ свои́хъ.
10 “Indeed they don’t know to do right,” says Yahweh, “Who hoard plunder and loot in their palaces.”
11 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ: тѵ́ре, ѡ҆́крестъ землѧ̀ твоѧ̀ ѡ҆пꙋстѣ́етъ, и҆ ѿи́метъ ѿ тебє̀ крѣ́пость твою̀, и҆ разгра́бѧтсѧ страны̑ твоѧ̑.
11 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “An adversary will overrun the land; and he will pull down your strongholds, and your fortresses will be plundered.”
12 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: ꙗ҆́коже пастꙋ́хъ, є҆гда̀ и҆сто́ргнетъ ѿ ᲂу҆́стъ льво́выхъ двѣ̀ го́лєни, и҆лѝ ѡ҆бꙋ́шїе ᲂу҆́ха, та́кѡ и҆сто́ргнꙋтсѧ сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы живꙋ́щїи въ самарі́и прѧ́мѡ пле́мене и҆ въ дама́сцѣ.
12 Yahweh says: “As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so shall the children of Israel be rescued who sit in Samaria on the corner of a couch, and on the silken cushions of a bed.”
13 Жерцы̀, послꙋ́шайте и҆ засвидѣ́тельствꙋйте до́мꙋ і҆а́кѡвлю, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ вседержи́тель:
13 “Listen, and testify against the house of Jacob,” says the Lord Yahweh, the God of Armies.
14 поне́же въ де́нь, є҆гда̀ ѿмщꙋ̀ нечє́стїѧ і҆и҃лєва на не́мъ, и҆ ѿмщꙋ̀ на тре́бищихъ веѳи́лихъ, и҆ раскопа́ю ро́ги тре́бища, и҆ падꙋ́тсѧ на зе́млю:
14 “For in the day that I visit the transgressions of Israel on him, I will also visit the altars of Bethel; and the horns of the altar will be cut off, and fall to the ground.
15 сокрꙋшꙋ̀ и҆ поражꙋ̀ до́мъ съ преклѣ̑ты съ до́момъ лѣ́тнимъ, и҆ поги́бнꙋтъ до́мове ко́сти слоно́выѧ, и҆ потребѧ́тсѧ и҆ дрꙋзі́и до́мове мно́зи, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
15 I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory will perish, and the great houses will have an end,” says Yahweh.

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).
But now at all events mark the beasts which are unquestionably of savage kind. "The lion roareth, who doth not fear?" And yet wherein is it that thou dost find thyself to be stronger than he?

Nay, even when He says that God creates evil things, and that there is no evil in a city that the Lord hath not done, he does not mean by these words that the Lord is the cause of evil, but the word evil ' is used in two ways, with two meanings.
