Notes on this text (3)
- 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.
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- 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 речѐ гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: вни́ди къ фараѡ́нꙋ и҆ рече́ши къ немꙋ̀: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: ѿпꙋстѝ лю́ди моѧ̑, да мѝ послꙋ́жатъ:
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 а҆́ще же не хо́щеши ты̀ ѿпꙋсти́ти, сѐ, а҆́зъ побива́ю всѧ̑ предѣ́лы твоѧ̑ жа́бами:
2 If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs.
3 и҆ и҆зры́гнетъ рѣка̀ жа̑бы, и҆ и҆злѣ́зшѧ вни́дꙋтъ въ до́мы твоѧ̑ и҆ въ клѣ̑ти ло́жницъ твои́хъ, и҆ на постє́ли твоѧ̑ и҆ въ до́мы рабѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ люді́й твои́хъ, и҆ въ тѣ̑ста твоѧ̑ и҆ въ пе́щы твоѧ̑,
3 The river will swarm with frogs, which will go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs.
4 и҆ на тѧ̀ и҆ на рабы̑ твоѧ̑ и҆ на лю́ди твоѧ̑ возлѣ́зꙋтъ жа̑бы.
4 The frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.”’”
5 Рече́ же гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: рцы̀ а҆арѡ́нꙋ бра́тꙋ твоемꙋ̀: прострѝ рꙋко́ю твое́ю же́злъ тво́й на рѣ́ки и҆ на кла̑дѧзи и҆ на є҆зе́ра, и҆ и҆зведѝ жа̑бы на зе́млю є҆гѵ́петскꙋю.
5 Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’”
6 И҆ прострѐ а҆арѡ́нъ рꙋ́кꙋ на во́ды є҆гѵ́пєтскїѧ и҆ и҆зведѐ жа̑бы: и҆ и҆злѣзо́ша жа̑бы и҆ покры́ша зе́млю є҆гѵ́петскꙋю.
6 Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Сотвори́ша же и҆ волсвѝ є҆гѵ́петстїи волхвова́нїѧми свои́ми та́кожде и҆ и҆зведо́ша жа̑бы на зе́млю є҆гѵ́петскꙋю.
7 The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Призва́ же фараѡ́нъ мѡѷсе́а и҆ а҆арѡ́на и҆ речѐ: помоли́тесѧ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ, да ѿжене́тъ ѿ менє̀ жа̑бы и҆ ѿ люді́й мои́хъ: и҆ ѿпꙋщꙋ̀ лю́ди, и҆ пожрꙋ́тъ гдⷭ҇еви.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Entreat Yahweh, that he take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Yahweh.”
9 Рече́ же мѡѷсе́й къ фараѡ́нꙋ: ѡ҆предѣлѝ мнѣ̀, когда̀ помолю́сѧ ѡ҆ тебѣ̀ и҆ ѡ҆ рабѣ́хъ твои́хъ и҆ ѡ҆ лю́дехъ твои́хъ, да поги́бнꙋтъ жа̑бы ѿ тебє̀ и҆ ѿ люді́й твои́хъ и҆ ѿ домѡ́въ ва́шихъ, то́чїю въ рѣцѣ̀ да ѡ҆ста́нꙋтсѧ.
9 Moses said to Pharaoh, “I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only.”
10 Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: заꙋ́тра. Речѐ ᲂу҆̀бо: ꙗ҆́коже ре́клъ є҆сѝ, да ᲂу҆вѣ́си, ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́сть и҆но́гѡ ра́звѣ гдⷭ҇а:
10 Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh our God.
11 и҆ ѿженꙋ́тсѧ жа̑бы ѿ тебє̀ и҆ ѿ домѡ́въ ва́шихъ и҆ ѿ се́лъ, и҆ ѿ рабѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ ѿ люді́й твои́хъ, то́чїю въ рѣцѣ̀ ѡ҆ста́нꙋтсѧ.
11 The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 И҆зы́де же мѡѷсе́й и҆ а҆арѡ́нъ ѿ фараѡ́на, и҆ возопѝ мѡѷсе́й ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ ѡ҆ ѡ҆предѣле́нїи жа́бъ, ꙗ҆́коже совѣща̀ съ фараѡ́номъ.
12 Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to Yahweh concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Сотвори́ же гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ мѡѷсе́й: и҆ и҆зомро́ша жа̑бы ѿ домѡ́въ и҆ ѿ се́лъ и҆ ѿ ни́въ и҆́хъ:
13 Yahweh did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 и҆ собра́ша ѧ҆̀ въ сто́ги сто́ги, и҆ возсмердѣ́сѧ землѧ̀.
14 They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Ви́дѣвъ же фараѡ́нъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́сть ѿра́да, ѡ҆тѧготи́сѧ се́рдце є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не послꙋ́ша и҆́хъ, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
16 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: рцы̀ а҆арѡ́нꙋ: прострѝ рꙋко́ю же́злъ тво́й и҆ ᲂу҆да́ри въ пе́рсть земнꙋ́ю, и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ скні̑пы въ человѣ́цѣхъ и҆ въ скотѣ́хъ, и҆ на фараѡ́нѣ и҆ на до́мѣ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ рабѣ́хъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ве́сь песо́къ земны́й ста́нетъ скні́пами во все́й землѝ є҆гѵ́петстѣй.
16 Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’”
17 Прострѐ ᲂу҆̀бо а҆арѡ́нъ рꙋко́ю же́злъ и҆ ᲂу҆да́ри въ пе́рсть земнꙋ́ю: и҆ бы́ша скні̑пы въ человѣ́цѣхъ и҆ въ скотѣ́хъ, и҆ во всѧ́кой пе́рсти земно́й бы́ша скні̑пы во все́й землѝ є҆гѵ́петстѣй.
17 They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Твори́ша же и҆ волсвѝ волхвова́ньми свои́ми та́кожде и҆звестѝ скні̑пы, и҆ не возмого́ша: и҆ бы́ша скні̑пы въ человѣ́цѣхъ и҆ скотѣ́хъ.
18 The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
19 Рѣ́ша ᲂу҆̀бо волсвѝ фараѡ́нꙋ: пе́рстъ бж҃їй є҆́сть сїѐ. И҆ ѡ҆жесточи́сѧ се́рдце фараѡ́ново, и҆ не послꙋ́ша и҆́хъ, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
19 Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger;” but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
20 Рече́ же гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: воста́ни заꙋ́тра и҆ ста́ни пред̾ фараѡ́номъ, и҆ сѐ, ѻ҆́нъ и҆зы́детъ на во́дꙋ, и҆ рече́ши є҆мꙋ̀: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: ѿпꙋстѝ лю́ди моѧ̑, да мѝ послꙋ́жатъ въ пꙋсты́ни:
20 Yahweh said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 а҆́ще же не хо́щеши ѿпꙋсти́ти люді́й мои́хъ, сѐ, а҆́зъ посыла́ю на тѧ̀ и҆ на рабы̑ твоѧ̑, и҆ на лю́ди твоѧ̑ и҆ на до́мы ва́шѧ пє́сїѧ мꙋ̑хи: и҆ напо́лнѧтсѧ до́мове є҆гѵ́петстїи пе́сїихъ мꙋ́хъ и҆ въ землѝ, на не́йже сꙋ́ть:
21 Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground they are on.
22 и҆ просла́влю въ то́й де́нь зе́млю гесе́мскꙋ, на не́йже лю́дїе моѝ ста́ша, на не́йже не бꙋ́детъ та́мѡ пе́сїихъ мꙋ́хъ, да ᲂу҆вѣ́си, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ є҆́смь гдⷭ҇ь, бг҃ъ всеѧ̀ землѝ:
22 I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end you may know that I am Yahweh on the earth.
23 и҆ положꙋ̀ разлꙋче́нїе междꙋ̀ людьмѝ мои́ми и҆ людьмѝ твои́ми: во ᲂу҆́трїи же бꙋ́детъ зна́менїе сїѐ на землѝ.
23 I will put a division between my people and your people. This sign shall happen by tomorrow.”’”
24 Сотвори́ же гдⷭ҇ь та́кѡ: и҆ прїи́де пе́сїихъ мꙋ́хъ мно́жество въ до́мы фараѡ́нѡвы и҆ въ до́мы рабѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ во всю̀ зе́млю є҆гѵ́петскꙋ, и҆ поги́бе землѧ̀ ѿ пе́сїихъ мꙋ́хъ.
24 Yahweh did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses. In all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Воззва́ же фараѡ́нъ мѡѷсе́а и҆ а҆арѡ́на, глаго́лѧ: ше́дше пожри́те же́ртвꙋ гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ ва́шемꙋ въ землѝ се́й.
25 Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!”
26 И҆ речѐ мѡѷсе́й: не мо́жетъ сѐ та́кѡ бы́ти, хꙋ́льно бо сѐ є҆гѵ́птѧнѡмъ: не поло́жимъ тре́бꙋ гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ: а҆́ще бо поло́жимъ тре́бꙋ по хꙋле́нїю є҆гѵ́петскꙋ пред̾ ни́ми, ка́менїемъ побїю́тъ ны̀:
26 Moses said, “It isn’t appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Yahweh our God. Behold, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, won’t they stone us?
27 пꙋте́мъ трїе́хъ дні́й по́йдемъ въ пꙋсты́ню и҆ пожре́мъ гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ гдⷭ҇ь на́мъ.
27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Yahweh our God, as he shall command us.”
28 И҆ речѐ фараѡ́нъ: а҆́зъ ѿпꙋща́ю вы̀, и҆ пожри́те гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ ва́шемꙋ въ пꙋсты́ни: но не дале́че простира́йтесѧ и҆тѝ: помоли́тесѧ ᲂу҆̀бо и҆ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ.
28 Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Yahweh your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 Рече́ же мѡѷсе́й: сѐ, а҆́зъ и҆зы́дꙋ ѿ тебє̀ и҆ помолю́сѧ ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ, и҆ ѿи́дꙋтъ пє́сїѧ мꙋ̑хи ѿ тебє̀ и҆ ѿ рабѡ́въ твои́хъ и҆ ѿ люді́й твои́хъ заꙋ́тра: да не приложи́ши є҆щѐ, фараѡ́не, прельсти́ти, є҆́же не ѿпꙋсти́ти люді́й пожре́ти гдⷭ҇ꙋ.
29 Moses said, “Behold, I am going out from you. I will pray to Yahweh that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don’t let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Yahweh.”
30 И҆зы́де же мѡѷсе́й ѿ фараѡ́на и҆ помоли́сѧ бг҃ꙋ.
30 Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.
31 Сотвори́ же гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́коже речѐ мѡѷсе́й, и҆ ѿѧ̀ пє́сїѧ мꙋ̑хи ѿ фараѡ́на и҆ ѿ рабѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ѿ люді́й є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не ѡ҆ста́сѧ ни є҆ди́на.
31 Yahweh did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
32 И҆ ѡ҆тѧготѝ фараѡ́нъ се́рдце своѐ и҆ во вре́мѧ сїѐ, и҆ не восхотѣ̀ ѿпꙋсти́ти люді́й.
32 Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.

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).
… us; we understand consistently with this, that, in this place, the books of both Testaments are called "the heavens." Now it is said too of Moses himself, by the magicians of king Pharaoh, when they were conquered by him, "This is the finger of God." And what is written, "The heavens shall be rolled up as a book." Although it …

… Egyptians, shall we dare to say that the water also was turned into blood by means of those same angels, and that frogs were created by means of the same, the like whereunto even the magicians of Pharaoh were able to make by their enchantments; so as that evil angels stood on both sides, on the one side afflicting them, …

For whence was it that the magicians of Pharaoh could by no means make lice? Was it not because even these same evil angels were not suffered to do this?
