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 Молю̀ ᲂу҆̀бо ва́съ а҆́зъ ю҆́зникъ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ, досто́йнѡ ходи́ти зва́нїѧ, въ не́же зва́ни бы́сте,
1 Παρακαλῶ οὖν ὑμᾶς ἐγὼ ὁ δέσμιος ἐν Κυρίῳ ἀξίως περιπατῆσαι τῆς κλήσεως ἧς ἐκλήθητε,
2 со всѧ́кимъ смиреномꙋ́дрїемъ и҆ кро́тостїю, съ долготерпѣ́нїемъ, терпѧ́ще дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́гꙋ любо́вїю,
2 μετὰ πάσης ταπεινοφροσύνης καὶ πρᾳότητος, μετὰ μακροθυμίας, ἀνεχόμενοι ἀλλήλων ἐν ἀγάπῃ,
3 тща́щесѧ блюстѝ є҆дине́нїе дꙋ́ха въ сою́зѣ ми́ра.
3 σπουδάζοντες τηρεῖν τὴν ἑνότητα τοῦ Πνεύματος ἐν τῷ συνδέσμῳ τῆς εἰρήνης.
4 Є҆ди́но тѣ́ло, є҆ди́нъ дꙋ́хъ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ зва́ни бы́сте во є҆ди́нѣмъ ᲂу҆пова́нїи зва́нїѧ ва́шегѡ:
4 ἓν σῶμα καὶ ἓν Πνεῦμα, καθὼς καὶ ἐκλήθητε ἐν μιᾷ ἐλπίδι τῆς κλήσεως ὑμῶν·
5 є҆ди́нъ гдⷭ҇ь, є҆ди́на вѣ́ра, є҆ди́но кр҃ще́нїе,
5 εἷς Κύριος, μία πίστις, ἓν βάπτισμα·
6 є҆ди́нъ бг҃ъ и҆ ѻ҆ц҃ъ всѣ́хъ, и҆́же над̾ всѣ́ми и҆ чрез̾ всѣ́хъ и҆ во всѣ́хъ на́съ.
6 εἷς Θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ πάντων, ὁ ἐπὶ πάντων, καὶ διὰ πάντων, καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν ἡμῖν.
7 Є҆ди́номꙋ же комꙋ́ждо на́съ даде́сѧ блгⷣть по мѣ́рѣ дарова́нїѧ хрⷭ҇то́ва.
7 Ἑνὶ δὲ ἑκάστῳ ἡμῶν ἐδόθη [ἡ] χάρις κατὰ τὸ μέτρον τῆς δωρεᾶς τοῦ Χριστοῦ.
8 Тѣ́мже глаго́летъ: возше́дъ на высотꙋ̀, плѣни́лъ є҆сѝ плѣ́нъ, и҆ дадѐ даѧ̑нїѧ человѣ́кѡмъ.
8 διὸ λέγει· ἀναβὰς εἰς ὕψος ᾐχμαλώτευσεν αἰχμαλωσίαν καὶ ἔδωκε δόματα τοῖς ἀνθρώποις.
9 А҆ є҆́же, взы́де, что̀ є҆́сть, то́чїю ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ сни́де пре́жде въ до́льнѣйшыѧ страны̑ землѝ;
9 τὸ δὲ ἀνέβη τί ἐστιν εἰ μὴ ὅτι καὶ κατέβη πρῶτον εἰς τὰ κατώτερα μέρη τῆς γῆς;
10 Сше́дый, то́й є҆́сть и҆ возше́дый превы́ше всѣ́хъ нб҃съ, да и҆спо́лнитъ всѧ́чєскаѧ.
10 ὁ καταβὰς αὐτός ἐστι καὶ ὁ ἀναβὰς ὑπεράνω πάντων τῶν οὐρανῶν, ἵνα πληρώσῃ τὰ πάντα.
11 И҆ то́й да́лъ є҆́сть ѡ҆́вы ᲂу҆́бѡ а҆пⷭлы, ѡ҆́вы же прⷪ҇ро́ки, ѡ҆́вы же бл҃говѣ́стники, ѡ҆́вы же па́стыри и҆ ᲂу҆чи́тєли,
11 καὶ αὐτὸς ἔδωκε τοὺς μὲν ἀποστόλους, τοὺς δὲ προφήτας, τοὺς δὲ εὐαγγελιστάς, τοὺς δὲ ποιμένας καὶ διδασκάλους,
12 къ соверше́нїю ст҃ы́хъ, въ дѣ́ло слꙋже́нїѧ, въ созида́нїе тѣ́ла хрⷭ҇то́ва,
12 πρὸς τὸν καταρτισμὸν τῶν ἁγίων εἰς ἔργον διακονίας, εἰς οἰκοδομὴν τοῦ σώματος τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
13 до́ндеже дости́гнемъ всѝ въ соедине́нїе вѣ́ры и҆ позна́нїѧ сн҃а бж҃їѧ, въ мꙋ́жа соверше́нна, въ мѣ́рꙋ во́зраста и҆сполне́нїѧ хрⷭ҇то́ва:
13 μέχρι καταντήσωμεν οἱ πάντες εἰς τὴν ἑνότητα τῆς πίστεως καὶ τῆς ἐπιγνώσεως τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ, εἰς ἄνδρα τέλειον, εἰς μέτρον ἡλικίας τοῦ πληρώματος τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
14 да не быва́емъ ктомꙋ̀ младе́нцы, вла́ющесѧ и҆ скита́ющесѧ всѧ́кимъ вѣ́тромъ ᲂу҆че́нїѧ, во лжѝ человѣ́честѣй, въ кова́рствѣ ко́зней льще́нїѧ:
14 ἵνα μηκέτι ὦμεν νήπιοι, κλυδωνιζόμενοι καὶ περιφερόμενοι παντὶ ἀνέμῳ τῆς διδασκαλίας, ἐν τῇ κυβείᾳ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἐν πανουργίᾳ πρὸς τὴν μεθοδείαν τῆς πλάνης,
15 и҆́стинствꙋюще же въ любвѝ, да возрасти́мъ въ него̀ всѧ́чєскаѧ, и҆́же є҆́сть глава̀ хрⷭ҇то́съ,
15 ἀληθεύοντες δὲ ἐν ἀγάπῃ αὐξήσωμεν εἰς αὐτὸν τὰ πάντα, ὅς ἐστιν ἡ κεφαλή, ὁ Χριστός,
16 и҆з̾ негѡ́же всѐ тѣ́ло, составлѧ́емо и҆ счинѣва́емо прили́чнѣ всѧ́цѣмъ ѡ҆сѧза́нїемъ подаѧ́нїѧ, по дѣ́йствꙋ въ мѣ́рѣ є҆ди́ныѧ коеѧ́ждо ча́сти, возраще́нїе тѣ́ла твори́тъ въ созда́нїе самагѡ̀ себє̀ любо́вїю.
16 ἐξ οὗ πᾶν τὸ σῶμα συναρμολογούμενον καὶ συμβιβαζόμενον διὰ πάσης ἁφῆς τῆς ἐπιχορηγίας κατ᾽ ἐνέργειαν ἐν μέτρῳ ἑνὸς ἑκάστου μέρους τὴν αὔξησιν τοῦ σώματος ποιεῖται εἰς οἰκοδομὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἐν ἀγάπῃ.
17 Сїѐ ᲂу҆̀бо глаго́лю и҆ послꙋ́шествꙋю ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ, ктомꙋ̀ не ходи́ти ва́мъ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ про́чїи ꙗ҆зы́цы хо́дѧтъ въ сꙋетѣ̀ ᲂу҆ма̀ и҆́хъ,
17 Τοῦτο οὖν λέγω καὶ μαρτύρομαι ἐν Κυρίῳ, μηκέτι ὑμᾶς περιπατεῖν καθὼς καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ ἔθνη περιπατεῖ ἐν ματαιότητι τοῦ νοὸς αὐτῶν,
18 помраче́ни смы́сломъ, сꙋ́ще ѿчꙋжде́ни ѿ жи́зни бж҃їѧ, за невѣ́жество сꙋ́щее въ ни́хъ, за ѡ҆камене́нїе серде́цъ и҆́хъ:
18 ἐσκοτισμένοι τῇ διανοίᾳ, ὄντες ἀπηλλοτριωμένοι τῆς ζωῆς τοῦ Θεοῦ διὰ τὴν ἄγνοιαν τὴν οὖσαν ἐν αὐτοῖς διὰ τὴν πώρωσιν τῆς καρδίας αὐτῶν,
19 и҆̀же въ неча́ѧнїе вло́жшесѧ, преда́ша себѐ стꙋдодѣѧ́нїю, въ дѣ́ланїе всѧ́кїѧ нечистоты̀ въ лихоима́нїи.
19 οἵτινες, ἀπηλγηκότες, ἑαυτοὺς παρέδωκαν τῇ ἀσελγείᾳ εἰς ἐργασίαν ἀκαθαρσίας πάσης ἐν πλεονεξίᾳ.
20 Вы́ же не та́кѡ позна́сте хрⷭ҇та̀:
20 ὑμεῖς δὲ οὐχ οὕτως ἐμάθετε τὸν Χριστόν,
21 а҆́ще ᲂу҆́бѡ слы́шасте є҆го̀ и҆ ѡ҆ не́мъ наꙋчи́стесѧ, ꙗ҆́коже є҆́сть и҆́стина ѡ҆ і҆и҃сѣ:
21 εἴγε αὐτὸν ἠκούσατε καὶ ἐν αὐτῷ ἐδιδάχθητε, καθώς ἐστιν ἀλήθεια ἐν τῷ Ἰησοῦ,
22 ѿложи́ти ва́мъ, по пе́рвомꙋ житїю̀, ве́тхаго человѣ́ка, тлѣ́ющаго въ по́хотехъ преле́стныхъ,
22 ἀποθέσθαι ὑμᾶς κατὰ τὴν προτέραν ἀναστροφὴν τὸν παλαιὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν φθειρόμενον κατὰ τὰς ἐπιθυμίας τῆς ἀπάτης,
23 ѡ҆бновлѧ́тисѧ же дꙋ́хомъ ᲂу҆ма̀ ва́шегѡ,
23 ἀνανεοῦσθαι δὲ τῷ πνεύματι τοῦ νοὸς ὑμῶν
24 и҆ ѡ҆блещи́сѧ въ но́ваго человѣ́ка, созда́ннаго по бг҃ꙋ въ пра́вдѣ и҆ въ преподо́бїи и҆́стины.
24 καὶ ἐνδύσασθαι τὸν καινὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν κατὰ Θεὸν κτισθέντα ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ὁσιότητι τῆς ἀληθείας.
25 Тѣ́мже ѿло́жше лжꙋ̀, глаго́лите и҆́стинꙋ кі́йждо ко и҆́скреннемꙋ своемꙋ̀, занѐ є҆смы̀ дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́гꙋ ᲂу҆́дове.
25 Διὸ ἀποθέμενοι τὸ ψεῦδος λαλεῖτε ἀλήθειαν ἕκαστος μετὰ τοῦ πλησίον αὐτοῦ· ὅτι ἐσμὲν ἀλλήλων μέλη.
26 Гнѣ́вайтесѧ и҆ не согрѣша́йте: со́лнце да не за́йдетъ въ гнѣ́вѣ ва́шемъ:
26 ὀργίζεσθε, καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε· ὁ ἥλιος μὴ ἐπιδυέτω ἐπὶ τῷ παροργισμῷ ὑμῶν,
27 нижѐ дади́те мѣ́ста дїа́волꙋ.
27 μηδὲ δίδοτε τόπον τῷ διαβόλῳ.
28 Крады́й ктомꙋ̀ да не кра́детъ, но па́че да трꙋжда́етсѧ, дѣ́лаѧ свои́ма рꙋка́ма благо́е, да и҆́мать подаѧ́ти тре́бꙋющемꙋ.
28 ὁ κλέπτων μηκέτι κλεπτέτω, μᾶλλον δὲ κοπιάτω ἐργαζόμενος τὸ ἀγαθὸν ταῖς χερσίν, ἵνα ἔχῃ μεταδιδόναι τῷ χρείαν ἔχοντι.
29 Всѧ́ко сло́во гни́ло да не и҆схо́дитъ и҆з̾ ᲂу҆́стъ ва́шихъ, но то́чїю є҆́же є҆́сть бл҃го къ созда́нїю вѣ́ры, да да́стъ блгⷣть слы́шащымъ.
29 πᾶς λόγος σαπρὸς ἐκ τοῦ στόματος ὑμῶν μὴ ἐκπορευέσθω, ἀλλ᾽ εἴ τις ἀγαθὸς πρὸς οἰκοδομὴν τῆς χρείας, ἵνα δῷ χάριν τοῖς ἀκούουσι.
30 И҆ не ѡ҆скорблѧ́йте дх҃а ст҃а́гѡ бж҃їѧ, и҆́мже зна́менастесѧ въ де́нь и҆збавле́нїѧ.
30 καὶ μὴ λυπεῖτε τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἐν ᾧ ἐσφραγίσθητε εἰς ἡμέραν ἀπολυτρώσεως.
31 Всѧ́ка го́ресть, и҆ гнѣ́въ, и҆ ꙗ҆́рость, и҆ кли́чь, и҆ хꙋла̀ да во́зметсѧ ѿ ва́съ, со всѧ́кою ѕло́бою:
31 πᾶσα πικρία καὶ θυμὸς καὶ ὀργὴ καὶ κραυγὴ καὶ βλασφημία ἀρθήτω ἀφ᾽ ὑμῶν σὺν πάσῃ κακίᾳ.
32 быва́йте же дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ бла́зи, милосе́рди, проща́юще дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́гꙋ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ бг҃ъ во хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ прости́лъ є҆́сть ва́мъ.
32 γίνεσθε δὲ εἰς ἀλλήλους χρηστοί, εὔσπλαγχνοι, χαριζόμενοι ἑαυτοῖς καθὼς καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ἐν Χριστῷ ἐχαρίσατο ἡμῖν.

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).
When the blessed Paul exhorts us to anything of special importance, so truly wise and spiritual as he is, he grounds his exhortation upon things in Heaven: this itself being a lesson he had learned from the Lord. Thus he saith also elsewhere, "Walk in love, even as Christ also hath loved us." (ch. v.

It is declared then in these Scriptures, "Be ye angry, and sin not," and, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." Happy is he who remembers this, which I believe to be the case with you.
Now, that this God is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Paul the apostle also has declared, [saying,] "There is one God, the Father, who is above all, and through all things, and in us all." I have indeed proved already that there is only one God; but I shall further demonstrate this from the apostles themselves, and from …
But that orator was of the kind that I so loved as I wished myself to be such a one; and I erred through an inflated pride, and was "carried about with every wind," but yet was piloted by Thee, though very secretly.

For this cause Paul also, when urging us in another way to reconciliation, said, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." For much as Christ by this argument of the sacrifice, so there Paul by that of the day, is urging us on to the self-same point.
