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 А҆́ще ᲂу҆̀бо воскреснꙋ́сте со хрⷭ҇то́мъ, вы́шнихъ и҆щи́те, и҆дѣ́же є҆́сть хрⷭ҇то́съ ѡ҆деснꙋ́ю бг҃а сѣдѧ̀:
1 SI habéis pues resucitado con Cristo, buscad las cosas de arriba, donde está Cristo sentado á la diestra de Dios.
1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.
2 гѡ́рнѧѧ мꙋ́дрствꙋйте, (а҆) не земна̑ѧ.
2 Poned la mira en las cosas de arriba, no en las de la tierra.
2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.
3 Оу҆мро́сте бо, и҆ живо́тъ ва́шъ сокрове́нъ є҆́сть со хрⷭ҇то́мъ въ бз҃ѣ:
3 Porque muertos sois, y vuestra vida está escondida con Cristo en Dios.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 є҆гда́ (же) хрⷭ҇то́съ ꙗ҆ви́тсѧ, живо́тъ ва́шъ, тогда̀ и҆ вы̀ съ ни́мъ ꙗ҆вите́сѧ въ сла́вѣ.
4 Cuando Cristo, vuestra vida, se manifestare, entonces vosotros también seréis manifestados con él en gloria.
4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
5 Оу҆мертви́те ᲂу҆̀бо ᲂу҆́ды ва́шѧ, ꙗ҆̀же на землѝ: блꙋ́дъ, нечистотꙋ̀, стра́сть, по́хоть ѕлꙋ́ю и҆ лихоима́нїе, є҆́же є҆́сть і҆дѡлослꙋже́нїе,
5 Amortiguad, pues, vuestros miembros que están sobre la tierra: fornicación, inmundicia, molicie, mala concupiscencia, y avaricia, que es idolatría:
5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
6 и҆́хже ра́ди грѧде́тъ гнѣ́въ бж҃їй на сы́ны противле́нїѧ,
6 Por las cuales cosas la ira de Dios viene sobre los hijos de rebelión.
6 For these things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
7 въ ни́хже и҆ вы̀ и҆ногда̀ ходи́сте, є҆гда̀ живѧ́сте въ ни́хъ.
7 En las cuales vosotros también anduvisteis en otro tiempo viviendo en ellas.
7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them,
8 Нн҃ѣ же ѿложи́те и҆ вы̀ та̑ всѧ̑: гнѣ́въ, ꙗ҆́рость, ѕло́бꙋ, хꙋле́нїе, срамосло́вїе ѿ ᲂу҆́стъ ва́шихъ:
8 Mas ahora, dejad también vosotros todas estas cosas: ira, enojo, malicia, maledicencia, torpes palabras de vuestra boca.
8 but now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
9 не лжи́те дрꙋ́гъ на дрꙋ́га, совле́кшесѧ ве́тхагѡ человѣ́ка съ дѣѧ́ньми є҆гѡ̀
9 No mintáis los unos á los otros, habiéndoos despojado del viejo hombre con sus hechos,
9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,
10 и҆ ѡ҆бле́кшесѧ въ но́ваго, ѡ҆бновлѧ́емаго въ ра́зꙋмъ по ѡ҆́бразꙋ созда́вшагѡ є҆го̀,
10 Y revestídoos del nuevo, el cual por el conocimiento es renovado conforme á la imagen del que lo crió;
10 and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,
11 и҆дѣ́же нѣ́сть є҆́ллинъ, ни і҆ꙋде́й, ѡ҆брѣ́занїе и҆ неѡбрѣ́занїе, ва́рваръ и҆ скѵ́ѳъ, ра́бъ и҆ свобо́дь, но всѧ́чєскаѧ и҆ во всѣ́хъ хрⷭ҇то́съ.
11 Donde no hay Griego ni Judío, circuncisión ni incircuncisión, bárbaro [ni] Scytha, siervo [ni] libre; mas Cristo es el todo, y en todos.
11 where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, or free person; but Christ is all, and in all.
12 Ѡ҆блецы́тесѧ ᲂу҆̀бо ꙗ҆́коже и҆збра́ннїи бж҃їи, ст҃и и҆ возлю́бленни, во ᲂу҆трѡ́бы щедро́тъ, бл҃гость, смиреномꙋ́дрїе, кро́тость и҆ долготерпѣ́нїе,
12 Vestíos pues, como escogidos de Dios, santos y amados, de entrañas de misericordia, de benignidad, de humildad, de mansedumbre, de tolerancia;
12 Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;
13 прїе́млюще дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га и҆ проща́юще себѣ̀, а҆́ще кто̀ на кого̀ и҆́мать порече́нїе: ꙗ҆́коже и҆ хрⷭ҇то́съ прости́лъ є҆́сть ва́мъ, та́кѡ и҆ вы̀.
13 Sufriéndoos los unos á los otros, y perdonándoos los unos á los otros si alguno tuviere queja del otro: de la manera que Cristo os perdonó, así también hacedlo vosotros.
13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.
14 Над̾ всѣ́ми же си́ми (стѧжи́те) любо́вь, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть соꙋ́зъ соверше́нства:
14 Y sobre todas estas cosas [vestíos de] caridad, la cual es el vínculo de la perfección.
14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.
15 и҆ ми́ръ бж҃їй да водворѧ́етсѧ въ сердца́хъ ва́шихъ, во́ньже и҆ зва́ни бы́сте во є҆ди́номъ тѣ́лѣ: и҆ благода́рни быва́йте.
15 Y la paz de Dios gobierne en vuestros corazones, á la cual asimismo sois llamados en un cuerpo; y sed agradecidos.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.
16 Сло́во хрⷭ҇то́во да вселѧ́етсѧ въ ва́съ бога́тнѡ, во всѧ́кой премꙋ́дрости: ᲂу҆ча́ще и҆ вразꙋмлѧ́юще себѐ самѣ́хъ во ѱалмѣ́хъ и҆ пѣ́нїихъ и҆ пѣ́снехъ дꙋхо́вныхъ, во блгⷣти пою́ще въ сердца́хъ ва́шихъ гдⷭ҇еви.
16 La palabra de Cristo habite en vosotros en abundancia en toda sabiduría, enseñándoos y exhortándoos los unos á los otros con salmos é himnos y canciones espirituales, con gracia cantando en vuestros corazones al Señor.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.
17 И҆ всѐ, є҆́же а҆́ще что̀ творитѐ сло́вомъ и҆лѝ дѣ́ломъ, всѧ̑ во и҆́мѧ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀, благодарѧ́ще бг҃а и҆ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ тѣ́мъ.
17 Y todo lo que hacéis, sea de palabra, ó de hecho, [hacedlo] todo en el nombre del Señor Jesús, dando gracias á Dios Padre por él.
17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
18 Жєны̀, повинꙋ́йтесѧ свои̑мъ мꙋ́жємъ, ꙗ҆́коже подоба́етъ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ.
18 Casadas, estad sujetas á vuestros maridos, como conviene en el Señor.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
19 Мꙋ́жїе, люби́те жєны̀ ва́шѧ, и҆ не ѡ҆горча́йтесѧ къ ни̑мъ.
19 Maridos, amad á vuestras mujeres, y no seáis desapacibles con ellas.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
20 Ча̑да, послꙋ́шайте роди́телей (свои́хъ) во все́мъ: сїе́ бо ᲂу҆го́дно є҆́сть гдⷭ҇еви.
20 Hijos, obedeced á vuestros padres en todo; porque esto agrada al Señor.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.
21 Ѻ҆тцы̀, не раздража́йте ча̑дъ ва́шихъ, да не ᲂу҆ныва́ютъ.
21 Padres, no irritéis á vuestros hijos, porque no se hagan de poco ánimo.
21 Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged.
22 Рабѝ, послꙋ́шайте по всемꙋ̀ плотски́хъ госпо́дїй (ва́шихъ), не пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма то́чїю рабо́тающе а҆́ки человѣкоꙋгѡ́дницы, но въ простотѣ̀ се́рдца, боѧ́щесѧ бг҃а.
22 Siervos, obedeced en todo á vuestros amos carnales, no sirviendo al ojo, como los que agradan á los hombres, sino con sencillez de corazón, temiendo á Dios:
22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.
23 И҆ всѧ́ко, є҆́же а҆́ще что̀ творитѐ, ѿ дꙋшѝ дѣ́лайте, ꙗ҆́коже гдⷭ҇ꙋ, а҆ не человѣ́кѡмъ,
23 Y todo lo que hagáis, hacedlo de ánimo, como al Señor, y no á los hombres;
23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,
24 вѣ́дѧще, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ гдⷭ҇а прїи́мете воздаѧ́нїе достоѧ́нїѧ: гдⷭ҇ꙋ бо хрⷭ҇тꙋ̀ рабо́таете.
24 Sabiendo que del Señor recibiréis la compensación de la herencia: porque al Señor Cristo servís.
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
25 А҆ ѡ҆би́дѧй воспрїи́метъ, є҆́же ѡ҆би́дѣ: и҆ нѣ́сть лица̀ ѡ҆бинове́нїѧ.
25 Mas el que hace injuria, recibirá la injuria que hiciere; que no hay acepción de personas.
25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.

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).
I know that many are offended by the foregoing discourse, but what can I do? ye heard what the Master enjoined. Am I to blame? what shall I do? See ye not the creditors, when debtors are obstinate, how they wear collars? Heard ye what Paul proclaimed today?

… of the flesh, and receiving the Holy Spirit; as the apostle says in the Epistle to the Colossians: "Mortify, therefore, your members which are upon the earth." And what these are he himself explains: "Fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence; and covetousness, which is idolatry." The laying aside of these is what the apostle preaches; and he declares that those …
But so soon as I understood, withal, that man made "after the image of Him that created him" was not so understood by Thy spiritual sons (whom of the Catholic mother Thou hadst begotten again through grace), as though they believed and imagined Thee to be bounded by human form,--although what was the nature of a spiritual substance I had …

As also in another place he said in clearer words, "Our life is hid with Christ in God." Be then of a good heart about it.

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.
