Notes on this text (3)
- As in the Slavonic Bible, Esther includes the Greek additions within its ten chapters, and Daniel includes the Song of the Three Young Men (3:24–90), Susanna (chapter 13) and Bel and the Dragon (chapter 14); Psalm 151 follows Psalm 150.
- 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.

1 Въ лѣ́то тре́тїе кѵ́ра царѧ̀ пе́рсскагѡ, сло́во ѿкры́сѧ данїи́лꙋ, є҆мꙋ́же прозва́сѧ и҆́мѧ валтаса́ръ: и҆́стинно же сло́во и҆ си́ла вели́ка и҆ ра́зꙋмъ даде́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀ въ видѣ́нїи.
1 EN el tercer año de Ciro rey de Persia, fué revelada palabra á Daniel, cuyo nombre era Beltsasar; y la palabra era verdadera, mas el tiempo fijado era largo: él empero comprendió la palabra, y tuvo inteligencia en la visión.
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the message was true, even a great warfare. He understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.
2 Въ ты̑ѧ дни̑ а҆́зъ данїи́лъ бѣ́хъ рыда́ѧ трѝ седми̑цы дні́й:
2 En aquellos días yo Daniel me contristé por espacio de tres semanas.
2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
3 хлѣ́ба вожделѣ́ннагѡ не ꙗ҆до́хъ, и҆ мѧ́со и҆ вїно̀ не вни́де во ᲂу҆ста̀ моѧ̑, и҆ ма́стїю не пома́захсѧ до и҆сполне́нїѧ трїе́хъ седми́цъ дні́й.
3 No comí pan delicado, ni entró carne ni vino en mi boca, ni me unté con ungüento, hasta que se cumplieron tres semanas de días.
3 I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 Въ де́нь два́десѧть четве́ртый пе́рвагѡ мцⷭ҇а а҆́зъ бѣ́хъ бли́з̾ рѣкѝ вели́кїѧ, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть ті́гръ є҆ддеке́ль,
4 Y á los veinte y cuatro días del mes primero estaba yo á la orilla del gran río Hiddekel;
4 In the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,
5 и҆ воздвиго́хъ ѻ҆́чи моѝ и҆ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ сѐ, мꙋ́жъ є҆ди́нъ ѡ҆блече́нъ въ ри́зꙋ льнѧ́нꙋ, и҆ чрє́сла є҆гѡ̀ препоѧ̑сана зла́томъ свѣ́тлымъ:
5 Y alzando mis ojos miré, y he aquí un varón vestido de lienzos, y ceñidos sus lomos de oro de Uphaz:
5 I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man clothed in linen, whose waist was adorned with pure gold of Uphaz.
6 тѣ́ло же є҆гѡ̀ а҆́ки ѳарсі́съ, лице́ же є҆гѡ̀ а҆́ки зрѣ́нїе мо́лнїи, ѻ҆́чи же є҆гѡ̀ а҆́ки свѣщы̀ ѻ҆́гнєны, и҆ мы̑шцы є҆гѡ̀ и҆ го́лєни а҆́ки зра́къ мѣ́ди блеща́щїѧсѧ, гла́съ же слове́съ є҆гѡ̀ а҆́ки гла́съ наро́да.
6 Y su cuerpo era como [piedra de] Tarsis, y su rostro parecía un relámpago, y sus ojos como antorchas de fuego, y sus brazos y sus pies como de color de metal resplandeciente, y la voz de sus palabras como la voz de ejército.
6 His body also was like beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches. His arms and his feet were like burnished bronze. The voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
7 И҆ ви́дѣхъ а҆́зъ данїи́лъ є҆ди́нъ ꙗ҆вле́нїе, а҆ мꙋ́жїе, и҆̀же со мно́ю, не ви́дѣша ꙗ҆вле́нїѧ, но ᲂу҆́жасъ вели́кїй нападѐ на ни́хъ, и҆ ѿбѣ́гнꙋша во стра́сѣ.
7 Y sólo yo, Daniel, vi aquella visión, y no la vieron los hombres que estaban conmigo; sino que cayó sobre ellos un gran temor, y huyeron, y escondiéronse.
7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me didn’t see the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
8 А҆́зъ же ѡ҆ста́хъ є҆ди́нъ и҆ ви́дѣхъ ꙗ҆вле́нїе вели́кое сїѐ, и҆ не ѡ҆ста̀ во мнѣ̀ крѣ́пость, и҆ сла́ва моѧ̀ ѡ҆брати́сѧ въ разсы́панїе, и҆ не ᲂу҆держа́хъ крѣ́пости.
8 Quedé pues yo solo, y vi esta gran visión, y no quedó en mí esfuerzo; antes mi fuerza se me trocó en desmayo, sin retener vigor alguno.
8 So I was left alone and saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; for my face grew deathly pale, and I retained no strength.
9 И҆ слы́шахъ гла́съ слове́съ є҆гѡ̀. И҆ внегда̀ слы́шахъ, бѣ́хъ сокрꙋше́нъ, лице́ же моѐ на землѝ:
9 Empero oí la voz de sus palabras: y oyendo la voz de sus palabras, estaba yo adormecido sobre mi rostro, y mi rostro en tierra.
9 Yet I heard the voice of his words. When I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
10 и҆ сѐ, рꙋка̀ прикаса́ющисѧ мнѣ̀, и҆ возста́ви мѧ̀ на кѡлѣ́на моѧ̑ и҆ на дла̑ни рꙋ́къ мои́хъ.
10 Y, he aquí, una mano me tocó, é hizo que me moviese sobre mis rodillas, y sobre las palmas de mis manos.
10 Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.
11 И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀: данїи́ле, мꙋ́жꙋ жела́нїй, разꙋмѣ́й во словесѣ́хъ си́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же а҆́зъ глаго́лю къ тебѣ̀, и҆ станѝ на стоѧ́нїи свое́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ нн҃ѣ по́сланъ є҆́смь къ тебѣ̀. И҆ є҆гда̀ возглаго́ла сло́во сїѐ ко мнѣ̀, воста́хъ тре́петенъ.
11 Y díjome: Daniel, varón de deseos, está atento á las palabras que te hablaré, y levántate sobre tus pies; porque á ti he sido enviado ahora. Y estando hablando conmigo esto, yo estaba temblando.
11 He said to me, “Daniel, you greatly beloved man, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have been sent to you, now.” When he had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling.
12 И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀: не бо́йсѧ, данїи́ле, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ пе́рвагѡ днѐ, во́ньже по́далъ є҆сѝ се́рдце твоѐ, є҆́же разꙋмѣ́ти и҆ трꙋди́тисѧ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ твои́мъ, ᲂу҆слы̑шана бы́ша словеса̀ твоѧ̑, а҆́зъ же прїидо́хъ во словесѣ́хъ твои́хъ:
12 Y díjome: Daniel, no temas: porque desde el primer día que diste tu corazón á entender, y á afligirte en la presencia de tu Dios, fueron oídas tus palabras; y á causa de tus palabras yo soy venido.
12 Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel; for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come for your words’ sake.
13 кнѧ́зь же ца́рства пе́рсскагѡ стоѧ́ше проти́вꙋ мнѣ̀ два́десѧть и҆ є҆ди́нъ де́нь: и҆ сѐ мїхаи́лъ є҆ди́нъ ѿ старѣ́йшинъ пе́рвыхъ прїи́де помощѝ мнѣ̀, и҆ того̀ ѡ҆ста́вихъ та́мѡ со кнѧ́земъ ца́рства пе́рсскагѡ,
13 Mas el príncipe del reino de Persia se puso contra mí veintiún días: y he aquí, Miguel, uno de los principales príncipes, vino para ayudarme, y yo quedé allí con los reyes de Persia.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with the kings of Persia.
14 и҆ прїидо́хъ сказа́ти тебѣ̀, є҆ли̑ка срѧ́щꙋтъ люді́й твои́хъ въ послѣ̑днїѧ дни̑, ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆щѐ видѣ́нїе на дни̑.
14 Soy pues venido para hacerte saber lo que ha de venir á tu pueblo en los postreros días; porque la visión es aún para días.
14 Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision is yet for many days.”
15 И҆ є҆гда̀ глаго́ла со мно́ю по словесє́мъ си̑мъ, да́хъ лицѐ моѐ на зе́млю и҆ ᲂу҆мили́хсѧ.
15 Y estando hablando conmigo semejantes palabras, puse mis ojos en tierra, y enmudecí.
15 When he had spoken these words to me, I set my face toward the ground and was mute.
16 И҆ сѐ, а҆́ки подо́бїе сы́на человѣ́ча прикоснꙋ́сѧ ᲂу҆стна́мъ мои̑мъ, и҆ ѿверзо́хъ ᲂу҆ста̀ моѧ̑ и҆ глаго́лахъ, и҆ рѣ́хъ ко стоѧ́щемꙋ предо мно́ю: го́споди, въ видѣ́нїи твое́мъ ѡ҆брати́сѧ ᲂу҆тро́ба моѧ̀ во мнѣ̀, и҆ не и҆мѣ́хъ си́лы:
16 Mas he aquí, como una semejanza de hijo de hombre tocó mis labios. Entonces abrí mi boca, y hablé, y dije á aquel que estaba delante de mí: Señor mío, con la visión se revolvieron mis dolores sobre mí, y no me quedó fuerza.
16 Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, “My lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows have overtaken me, and I retain no strength.
17 и҆ ка́кѡ возмо́жетъ ра́бъ тво́й го́споди, глаго́лати съ го́сподемъ си́мъ мои́мъ; а҆́зъ бо и҆знемого́хъ, и҆ ѿнн҃ѣ не ста́нетъ во мнѣ̀ крѣ́пость, (си́ла бо) и҆ дыха́нїе не ѡ҆ста̀ во мнѣ̀.
17 ¿Cómo pues podrá el siervo de mi señor hablar con este mi señor? porque al instante me faltó la fuerza, y no me ha quedado aliento.
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me. There was no breath left in me.”
18 И҆ приложѝ, и҆ прикоснꙋ́сѧ мнѣ̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ зра́къ человѣ́чь, и҆ ᲂу҆крѣпи́ мѧ,
18 Y aquella como semejanza de hombre me tocó otra vez, y me confortó;
18 Then one like the appearance of a man touched me again, and he strengthened me.
19 и҆ рече́ ми: не бо́йсѧ, мꙋ́жꙋ жела́нїй, ми́ръ тебѣ̀: мꙋжа́йсѧ и҆ крѣпи́сѧ И҆ є҆гда̀ глаго́ла со мно́ю, ᲂу҆крѣпи́хсѧ и҆ рѣ́хъ: да глаго́летъ госпо́дь мо́й ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆крѣпи́лъ мѧ̀ є҆сѝ.
19 Y díjome: Varón de deseos, no temas: paz á ti; ten buen ánimo, y aliéntate. Y hablando él conmigo cobré yo vigor, y dije: Hable mi señor, porque me has fortalecido.
19 He said, “Greatly beloved man, don’t be afraid. Peace be to you. Be strong. Yes, be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
20 И҆ речѐ: вѣ́си ли, почто̀ прїидо́хъ къ тебѣ̀; и҆ нн҃ѣ возвращꙋ́сѧ, є҆́же ра́тисѧ со кнѧ́земъ пе́рсскимъ: а҆́зъ же и҆схожда́хъ, кнѧ́зь же є҆́ллинскїй грѧдѧ́ше:
20 Y dijo: ¿Sabes por qué he venido á ti? Porque luego tengo de volver para pelear con el príncipe de los Persas; y en saliendo yo, luego viene el príncipe de Grecia.
20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go out, behold, the prince of Greece will come.
21 но да возвѣщꙋ́ ти вчине́ное въ писа́нїи и҆́стины, и҆ нѣ́сть ни є҆ди́нагѡ помога́ющагѡ со мно́ю ѡ҆ си́хъ, но то́чїю мїхаи́лъ кнѧ́зь ва́шъ.
21 Empero yo te declararé lo que está escrito en la escritura de verdad: y ninguno hay que se esfuerce conmigo en estas cosas, sino Miguel vuestro príncipe.
21 But I will tell you that which is inscribed in the writing of truth. There is no one who holds with me against these but Michael your prince.

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).
Gabriel appeared, and Daniel fell down: and of what nature or in what guise was he that appeared? His countenance was like lightning; not like the sun: and his eyes as lamps of fire, not as a furnace of fire: and the voice of his words as the voice of a multitude, not as the voice of twelve legions …
