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, ю҆́ницы васанїті̑дскїѧ, ꙗ҆̀же въ горѣ̀ самарі́йстѣй, преѡби́дѧщыѧ ᲂу҆бо́гихъ и҆ попира́ющыѧ ни́щихъ, глаго́лющыѧ господє́мъ свои̑мъ: подади́те на́мъ, да пїе́мъ.
1 Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their husbands, “Bring us drinks!”
2 Клѧ́тсѧ гдⷭ҇ь ст҃ы́ми свои́ми, ꙗ҆́кѡ сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ на вы̀, и҆ во́змꙋтъ вы̀ во ѻ҆рꙋ́жїи, и҆ сꙋ́щихъ съ ва́ми вве́ргꙋтъ въ коно́бы подгнѣща́ємыѧ ѻ҆́гненнїи гꙋби́телїе:
2 The Lord Yahweh has sworn by his holiness, “Behold, the days shall come on you that they will take you away with hooks, and the last of you with fish hooks.
3 и҆ и҆зве́ржєны бꙋ́дете на̑ги прѧ́мѡ дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га и҆ ѿве́ржетесѧ въ го́рꙋ ремма́нъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
3 You will go out at the breaks in the wall, everyone straight before her; and you will cast yourselves into Harmon,” says Yahweh.
4 Внидо́сте въ веѳи́ль и҆ беззако́нновасте, и҆ въ галга́лѣхъ ᲂу҆мно́жисте є҆́же нече́ствовати, и҆ принесо́сте заꙋ́тра трє́бы ва́шѧ, въ треде́нство десѧти̑ны ва́шѧ:
4 “Go to Bethel, and sin; to Gilgal, and sin more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three days,
5 и҆ прочто́ша и҆звнѣ̀ зако́нъ и҆ призва́ша и҆сповѣ́данїе: возвѣсти́те, ꙗ҆́кѡ сїѧ̑ возлюби́ша сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ.
5 offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them; for this pleases you, you children of Israel,” says the Lord Yahweh.
6 А҆́зъ же да́мъ ва́мъ ѡ҆ско́минꙋ зꙋбѡ́мъ во всѣ́хъ градѣ́хъ ва́шихъ и҆ недоста́токъ хлѣ́ба во всѣ́хъ мѣ́стѣхъ ва́шихъ: и҆ не ѡ҆брати́стесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
6 “I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in every town; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
7 И҆ а҆́зъ ᲂу҆держа́хъ до́ждь ѿ ва́съ пре́жде трїе́хъ мцⷭ҇євъ жа́твы, и҆ надождю̀ на є҆ди́нъ гра́дъ, а҆ на дрꙋгі́й (є҆ди́нъ) не надождю̀: ча́сть є҆ди́на надожди́тсѧ, и҆ ча́сть, на ню́же не надождю̀, и҆зсо́хнетъ:
7 “I also have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city. One field was rained on, and the field where it didn’t rain withered.
8 и҆ соберꙋ́тсѧ два̀ и҆ трѝ гра̑да во гра́дъ є҆ди́нъ пи́ти во́дꙋ и҆ не насы́тѧтсѧ: и҆ не ѡ҆брати́стесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
8 So two or three cities staggered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
9 Поби́хъ вы̀ раждеже́нїемъ и҆ златени́цею: ᲂу҆мно́жисте вертогра́ды ва́шѧ, вїногра́ды ва́шѧ и҆ смѡ́квы ва́шѧ и҆ ма̑сличїѧ ва̑ша: сїѧ̑ поѧдо́ша гꙋ́сєницы: и҆ нижѐ та́кѡ ѡ҆брати́стесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
9 “I struck you with blight and mildew many times in your gardens and your vineyards, and the swarming locusts have devoured your fig trees and your olive trees; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
10 Посла́хъ на вы̀ сме́рть на пꙋтѝ є҆гѵ́петстѣмъ, и҆ и҆зби́хъ ѻ҆рꙋ́жїемъ ю҆́ношы ва́шѧ, съ плѣ́номъ ко́ней твои́хъ, и҆ и҆зведо́хъ во ѻ҆гнѝ полкѝ ва́шѧ во гнѣ́вѣ мое́мъ: и҆ нижѐ та́кѡ ѡ҆брати́стесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
10 “I sent plagues among you like I did Egypt. I have slain your young men with the sword, and have carried away your horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
11 Разори́хъ вы̀, ꙗ҆́коже разорѝ бг҃ъ содо́мꙋ и҆ гомо́ррꙋ, и҆ бы́сте ꙗ҆́кѡ главнѧ̀ и҆сто́ржена и҆з̾ ѻ҆гнѧ̀: и҆ нижѐ та́кѡ ѡ҆брати́стесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
11 “I have overthrown some of you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
12 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди си́це сотворю́ ти, і҆и҃лю: ѻ҆ба́че, ꙗ҆́кѡ си́це сотворю́ ти, ᲂу҆гото́висѧ призыва́ти бг҃а твоего̀, і҆и҃лю.
12 “Therefore I will do this to you, Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, Israel.
13 Сѐ, а҆́зъ ᲂу҆твержа́ѧй гро́мъ и҆ созида́ѧй вѣ́тръ и҆ возвѣща́ѧй въ человѣ́цѣхъ хрїста̀ своего̀, творѧ́й ᲂу҆́тро и҆ мглꙋ̀ и҆ восходѧ́й на высѡ́каѧ землѝ: гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ вседержи́тель и҆́мѧ є҆мꙋ̀.
13 For, behold, he who forms the mountains, creates the wind, declares to man what is his thought, who makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth: Yahweh, the God of Armies, is his name.”

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).
… ye be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above." Amos also prophesies thus concerning such things: "Prepare thee, that thou mayst invoke thy God, O Israel; for lo, I am binding the thunder, and creating the spirit, and announcing to men their Christ." And in another place he says, "In that day will I raise up the tabernacle …

… made; as is shewn by the passage which says that He maketh His Angels Spirits, and that the earth is founded upon its steadfastness (though once for all these things were fixed and made) and that the thunder is made firm and the wind created. Of all these things the Word was given once, but the Action is continuous even …
