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 И҆ сїѧ̑ за́пѡвѣди и҆ сꙋды̀, ꙗ҆̀же снабди́те твори́ти на землѝ, ю҆́же гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ѻ҆тє́цъ ва́шихъ дае́тъ ва́мъ въ жре́бїй во всѧ̑ дни̑, въ нѧ́же вы̀ жи́ти бꙋ́дете на землѝ:
1 These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess all the days that you live on the earth.
2 па́гꙋбою погꙋби́те всѧ̑ мѣста̀, въ ни́хже слꙋжи́ша та́мѡ ꙗ҆зы́цы богѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, ꙗ҆̀же вы̀ прїи́мете, на гора́хъ высо́кихъ и҆ холмѣ́хъ и҆ под̾ дре́вомъ сѣно́внымъ:
2 You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess served their gods: on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
3 и҆ да раскопа́ете трє́бища и҆́хъ и҆ сокрꙋшитѐ столпы̀ и҆́хъ, и҆ дꙋбра̑вы и҆́хъ ссѣче́те, и҆ ваѧ́нїе богѡ́въ и҆́хъ сожже́те ѻ҆гне́мъ, и҆ погꙋбитѐ и҆́мѧ и҆́хъ ѿ мѣ́ста тогѡ̀.
3 You shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, and burn their Asherah poles with fire. You shall cut down the engraved images of their gods. You shall destroy their name out of that place.
4 Да не сотворитѐ та́кѡ гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ ва́шемꙋ,
4 You shall not do so to Yahweh your God.
5 то́кмѡ на мѣ́стѣ, и҆дѣ́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ва́шъ, во є҆ди́нѣмъ ѿ племе́нъ ва́шихъ, нарещѝ и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀ та́мѡ и҆ призва́ти, и҆ взы́щете, и҆ вни́дете та́мѡ:
5 But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, you shall seek his habitation, and you shall come there.
6 и҆ принесе́те та́мѡ всесожжє́нїѧ ва̑ша, и҆ жє́ртвы ва́шѧ, и҆ нача́тки ва́ши, и҆ ѡ҆бѣ́ты ва́ши, и҆ вѡ́льнаѧ ва̑ша, и҆ и҆сповѣ̑данїѧ ва̑ша, пе́рвенцы волѡ́въ ва́шихъ и҆ ѻ҆ве́цъ ва́шихъ,
6 You shall bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, your vows, your free will offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock there.
7 и҆ ꙗ҆́сти бꙋ́дете та́мѡ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ ва́шимъ и҆ возвеселите́сѧ ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ, на нѧ́же возложитѐ рꙋ́ки ва́шѧ вы̀ и҆ до́мове ва́ши, ꙗ҆́коже тѧ̀ блгⷭ҇ви́лъ є҆́сть гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й.
7 There you shall eat before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which Yahweh your God has blessed you.
8 Да не сотвори́те та́мѡ всѣ́хъ, є҆ли̑ка вы̀ творитѐ здѣ̀ дне́сь, кі́йждо ᲂу҆го́дное пред̾ собо́ю:
8 You shall not do all the things that we do here today, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
9 не прїидо́сте бо до нн҃ѣ въ поко́й и҆ въ наслѣ́дїе, є҆́же гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ва́шъ дае́тъ ва́мъ.
9 for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance which Yahweh your God gives you.
10 И҆ є҆гда̀ пре́йдете і҆ѻрда́нъ и҆ вселите́сѧ на землѝ, ю҆́же гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ва́шъ да́стъ въ наслѣ́дїе ва́мъ, и҆ ᲂу҆поко́итъ ва́съ ѿ всѣ́хъ вра̑гъ ва́шихъ, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ ва́съ, и҆ вселите́сѧ со ᲂу҆твержде́нїемъ:
10 But when you go over the Jordan and dwell in the land which Yahweh your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety,
11 и҆ бꙋ́детъ мѣ́сто, є҆́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ ва́шъ призва́ти и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀ та́мѡ, тꙋ̀ принесе́те всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка а҆́зъ заповѣ́даю ва́мъ дне́сь: всесожжє́нїѧ ва̑ша и҆ жє́ртвы ва́шѧ, и҆ десѧти̑ны ва́шѧ и҆ нача́тки рꙋ́къ ва́шихъ, и҆ всѧ́къ и҆збра́нъ да́ръ ва́шъ, є҆ли̑ка ѡ҆бѣща́ете гдⷭ҇еви бг҃ꙋ ва́шемꙋ:
11 then it shall happen that to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Yahweh.
12 и҆ возвеселите́сѧ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ ва́шимъ вы̀ и҆ сы́нове ва́ши и҆ дщє́ри ва́ши, и҆ рабы̑ ва́ши и҆ рабы̑ни ва́ши, и҆ леѵі́ти, и҆̀же ᲂу҆ вра́тъ ва́шихъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́сть и҆̀мъ ча́сти ни жре́бїѧ съ ва́ми.
12 You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God—you, and your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
13 Внемлѝ себѣ̀, да не принесе́ши всесожже́нїй твои́хъ на всѧ́комъ мѣ́стѣ, є҆́же а҆́ще ᲂу҆́зриши,
13 Be careful that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
14 то́кмѡ на мѣ́стѣ, є҆́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й, въ є҆ди́нѣмъ ѿ племе́нъ твои́хъ, та́мѡ да принесе́ши всесожжє́нїѧ твоѧ̑ и҆ та́мѡ сотвори́ши всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка а҆́зъ заповѣ́даю тебѣ̀ дне́сь.
14 but in the place which Yahweh chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
15 Но то́кмѡ всѣ́мъ жела́нїемъ дꙋшѝ твоеѧ̀ да пожре́ши, и҆ снѣ́си мѧса̀ по блгⷭ҇ве́нїю гдⷭ҇а бг҃а твоегѡ̀, є҆́же дадѐ тебѣ̀ во всѧ́комъ гра́дѣ: нечи́стый при тебѣ̀ и҆ чи́стый вкꙋ́пѣ да ꙗ҆́стъ ѧ҆̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ се́рнꙋ, и҆лѝ є҆лє́нѧ.
15 Yet you may kill and eat meat within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to Yahweh your God’s blessing which he has given you. The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle and the deer.
16 То́кмѡ кро́ве да не снѣ́сте: на зе́млю пролїе́те ю҆̀, а҆́ки во́дꙋ.
16 Only you shall not eat the blood. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
17 Не возмо́жеши ꙗ҆́сти въ градѣ́хъ твои́хъ десѧти́ны пшени́цы твоеѧ̀ и҆ вїна̀ твоегѡ̀ и҆ є҆ле́а твоегѡ̀, пе́рвенцѡвъ волѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ ѻ҆ве́цъ твои́хъ, и҆ всѣ́хъ ѡ҆бѣ́тѡвъ, є҆ли̑ки ѡ҆бѣща́ете, и҆ и҆сповѣ́данїй ва́шихъ, и҆ нача́ткѡвъ рꙋ́къ ва́шихъ:
17 You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your free will offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
18 то́кмѡ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ твои́мъ да снѣ́си ѧ҆̀ на мѣ́стѣ, є҆́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й себѣ̀, ты̀ и҆ сы́нъ тво́й и҆ дще́рь твоѧ̀, и҆ ра́бъ тво́й и҆ раба̀ твоѧ̀, и҆ леѵі́тъ, и҆ пришле́цъ и҆́же во градѣ́хъ твои́хъ, и҆ возвесели́шисѧ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ твои́мъ во всѣ́хъ, на нѧ́же возложи́ши рꙋ́кꙋ твою̀.
18 but you shall eat them before Yahweh your God in the place which Yahweh your God shall choose: you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates. You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God in all that you put your hand to.
19 Внемлѝ себѣ̀, да не ѡ҆ста́виши леѵі́тина во всѐ вре́мѧ, до́ндеже є҆сѝ жи́въ на землѝ.
19 Be careful that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
20 А҆́ще же разшири́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й предѣ́лы твоѧ̑, ꙗ҆́коже гл҃а тебѣ̀, и҆ рече́ши: снѣ́мъ мѧса̀, а҆́ще вожделѣ́етъ дꙋша̀ твоѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ꙗ҆́сти мѧса̀, во все́мъ жела́нїи дꙋшѝ твоеѧ̀ да снѣ́си мѧса̀.
20 When Yahweh your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat, you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.
21 А҆́ще же дале́че ѿстои́тъ мѣ́сто ѿ тебє̀, є҆́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й призыва́ти и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀ та́мѡ, и҆ зако́леши ѿ волѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ ѿ ѻ҆ве́цъ твои́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же да́стъ тебѣ̀ бг҃ъ тво́й, ꙗ҆́коже заповѣ́дахъ тебѣ̀, и҆ снѣ́си во градѣ́хъ твои́хъ по жела́нїю дꙋшѝ твоеѧ̀.
21 If the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to put his name is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
22 Ꙗ҆́коже ꙗ҆́стсѧ се́рна и҆ є҆ле́нь, та́кѡ да снѣ́си є҆̀: нечи́стый при тебѣ̀, и҆ чи́стый та́кожде да снѣ́стъ.
22 Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
23 Вонмѝ крѣ́пцѣ, є҆́же не ꙗ҆́сти кро́ве: кро́вь бо є҆́сть дꙋша̀ є҆гѡ̀: да на снѣ́стсѧ дꙋша̀ съ мѧ́сы:
23 Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood; for the blood is the life. You shall not eat the life with the meat.
24 да не снѣ́сте є҆ѧ̀, на зе́млю пролїе́те ю҆̀ а҆́ки во́дꙋ:
24 You shall not eat it. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
25 да не снѣ́си ю҆̀, да бла́го тебѣ̀ бꙋ́детъ и҆ сынѡ́мъ твои̑мъ по тебѣ̀ во вѣ́ки, а҆́ще сотвори́ши сѐ, є҆́же добро̀ и҆ ᲂу҆го́дно є҆́сть пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ твои́мъ.
25 You shall not eat it, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, when you do that which is right in Yahweh’s eyes.
26 Ра́звѣ ст҃а̑ѧ твоѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же а҆́ще бꙋ́дꙋтъ тебѣ̀, и҆ ѡ҆бѣ́ты твоѧ̑ взе́мъ да прїи́деши на мѣ́сто, є҆́же и҆збере́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й ѻ҆́ное себѣ̀ призва́ти и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀ та́мѡ:
26 Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take and go to the place which Yahweh shall choose.
27 и҆ сотвори́ши всесожжє́нїѧ твоѧ̑: мѧса̀ да вознесе́ши на ѻ҆лта́рь гдⷭ҇а бг҃а твоегѡ̀, кро́вь же же́ртвъ твои́хъ да пролїе́ши пред̾ степє́ни ѻ҆лтарѧ̀ гдⷭ҇а бг҃а твоегѡ̀, мѧса́ же да снѣ́си.
27 You shall offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on Yahweh your God’s altar. The blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on Yahweh your God’s altar, and you shall eat the meat.
28 Снабдѝ и҆ послꙋ́шай, и҆ да сотвори́ши всѧ̑ словеса̀, ꙗ҆̀же а҆́зъ заповѣ́даю тебѣ̀, да бла́го тебѣ̀ бꙋ́детъ и҆ сынѡ́мъ твои̑мъ во вѣ́ки, а҆́ще сотвори́ши добро̀ и҆ ᲂу҆го́дно пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ бг҃омъ твои́мъ.
28 Observe and hear all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in Yahweh your God’s eyes.
29 А҆́ще же потреби́тъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й ꙗ҆зы́ки, въ нѧ́же вхо́диши ты̀ та́мѡ, наслѣ́дити зе́млю и҆́хъ, ѿ лица̀ твоегѡ̀, и҆ прїи́меши ю҆̀ въ наслѣ́дїе, и҆ всели́шисѧ въ землѝ и҆́хъ:
29 When Yahweh your God cuts off the nations from before you where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land,
30 внемлѝ себѣ̀, да не взы́щеши послѣ́довати и҆̀мъ, по потребле́нїи и҆́хъ ѿ лица̀ твоегѡ̀, не взыщѝ богѡ́въ и҆́хъ, глаго́лѧ: ꙗ҆́коже творѧ́тъ ꙗ҆зы́цы сі́и богѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, сотворю̀ и҆ а҆́зъ:
30 be careful that you are not ensnared to follow them after they are destroyed from before you, and that you not inquire after their gods, saying, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.”
31 да не сотвори́ши гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ твоемꙋ̀ та́кѡ: ме́рзѡстна бо гдⷭ҇еви, ꙗ҆̀же возненави́дѣ, сотвори́ша богѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ сы́ны своѧ̑ и҆ дщє́ри своѧ̑ жгꙋ́тъ ѻ҆гне́мъ богѡ́мъ свои̑мъ.
31 You shall not do so to Yahweh your God; for every abomination to Yahweh, which he hates, they have done to their gods; for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods.
32 Всѧ́ко сло́во, є҆́же а҆́зъ заповѣ́даю тебѣ̀ дне́сь, сїѐ снабдѝ твори́ти: да не приложи́ши къ семꙋ̀, ни ѿи́меши ѿ негѡ̀.
32 Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do. You shall not add to it, nor take away from it.

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).
This is the special and peculiar place of true worship; for it is said "Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place...but in the place the Lord thy God shall choose." Now what is a spiritual burnt offering?
