1 И҆ ты̀, сы́не человѣ́чь, прорцы̀ на го́ры і҆и҃лєвы и҆ рцы̀:
1 You, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, “You mountains of Israel, hear Yahweh’s word.
2 го́ры і҆и҃лєвы, слы́шите сло́во гдⷭ҇не, сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: поне́же речѐ вра́гъ на вы̀: бла́гоже, пꙋсты́нѧ вѣ́чнаѧ во ѡ҆держа́нїе на́мъ бы́сть:
2 The Lord Yahweh says: ‘Because the enemy has said against you, “Aha!” and, “The ancient high places are ours in possession!”’
3 тогѡ̀ ра́ди прорцы̀ и҆ рцы̀: та́кѡ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: занѐ бы́ти ва́мъ погꙋблє́нымъ и҆ безчє́стнымъ и҆ возненави̑дѣнымъ ѿ ꙗ҆зы̑къ ѡ҆кре́стныхъ ва́мъ, є҆́же бы́ти ва́мъ во ѡ҆держа́нїе про́чымъ ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ, и҆ взыдо́сте и҆ бы́сте въ поноше́нїе ᲂу҆сте́нъ и҆ во ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ страна́мъ:
3 therefore prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Because, even because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession to the residue of the nations, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, and the evil report of the people;”
4 сегѡ̀ ра́ди, го́ры і҆и҃лєвы, слы́шите сло́во гдⷭ҇не, сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь гора́мъ и҆ холмѡ́мъ, и҆ пото́кѡмъ и҆ де́бремъ, и҆ полѧ́намъ и҆ ѡ҆пꙋстошє́нымъ, и҆ разорє́нымъ и҆ градѡ́мъ ѡ҆ста́влєнымъ, и҆̀же бы́ша въ плѣне́нїе и҆ въ попра́нїе ѡ҆ста́вшымъ ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ ѡ҆крє́стнымъ.
4 therefore, you mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Yahweh: The Lord Yahweh says to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the cities that are forsaken, which have become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are all around;
5 Тогѡ̀ ра́ди сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: а҆́ще не во ѻ҆гнѝ рве́нїѧ моегѡ̀ гл҃ахъ на про́чыѧ ꙗ҆зы́ки и҆ на і҆дꙋме́ю всю̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ да́ша зе́млю мою̀ себѣ̀ во ѡ҆держа́нїе со весе́лїемъ (ѿ всегѡ̀ се́рдца), ѡ҆безче́стивше дꙋ́шы, є҆́же потреби́ти повоева́нїемъ:
5 therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Surely in the fire of my jealousy I have spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, that have appointed my land to themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey.”’
6 тогѡ̀ ра́ди прорцы̀ на зе́млю і҆и҃левꙋ и҆ рцы̀ гора́мъ и҆ холмѡ́мъ, и҆ полѧ́намъ и҆ де́бремъ: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, а҆́зъ во рве́нїи мое́мъ и҆ въ ꙗ҆́рости мое́й гл҃ахъ, за ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ, ю҆́же прїѧ́сте ѿ ꙗ҆зы̑къ.
6 Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and tell the mountains, the hills, the watercourses and the valleys, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my wrath, because you have borne the shame of the nations.”
7 Тогѡ̀ ра́ди сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, а҆́зъ воздви́гнꙋ рꙋ́кꙋ мою̀ на ꙗ҆зы́ки, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ ва́съ, ті́и безче́стїе своѐ прїи́мꙋтъ.
7 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “I have sworn, ‘Surely the nations that are around you will bear their shame.’
8 Ва́ше же гро́здїе и҆ пло́дъ ва́шъ, го́ры і҆и҃лєвы, поѧдѧ́тъ лю́дїе моѝ, ꙗ҆́кѡ надѣ́ютсѧ прїитѝ.
8 “‘“But you, mountains of Israel, you shall shoot out your branches and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come.
9 Ꙗ҆́кѡ сѐ, а҆́зъ къ ва́мъ, и҆ призрю̀ на вы̀, и҆ воздѣ́лаете и҆ насѣ́ете:
9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will come to you, and you will be tilled and sown.
10 и҆ ᲂу҆мно́жꙋ въ ва́съ человѣ́ки, ве́сь до́мъ і҆и҃левъ до конца̀, и҆ населѧ́тсѧ гра́ди, и҆ пꙋсты̑ни ѡ҆градѧ́тсѧ:
10 I will multiply men on you, all the house of Israel, even all of it. The cities will be inhabited and the waste places will be built.
11 и҆ ᲂу҆мно́жꙋ ва́съ людьмѝ и҆ ското́мъ, и҆ ᲂу҆мно́жатсѧ и҆ возрастꙋ́тъ, и҆ вселю̀ ва́съ ꙗ҆́коже пре́жде, и҆ бла́го сотворю̀ ва́мъ ꙗ҆́коже бы́вшымъ пре́жде ва́съ, и҆ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ете, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ є҆́смь гдⷭ҇ь:
11 I will multiply man and animal on you. They will increase and be fruitful. I will cause you to be inhabited as you were before, and you will do better than at your beginnings. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
12 и҆ нарождꙋ̀ въ ва́съ человѣ́ки лю́ди моѧ̑ і҆и҃лѧ, и҆ наслѣ́дѧтъ ва́съ, и҆ бꙋ́дете и҆̀мъ во ѡ҆держа́нїе, и҆ не приложитѐ ктомꙋ̀ безча́дни бы́ти ѿ ни́хъ.
12 Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, even my people Israel. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance, and you will never again bereave them of their children.”
13 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: поне́же глаго́лаша тебѣ̀: землѧ̀ поѧда́ющаѧ человѣ́ки ты̀ є҆сѝ, и҆ безча́днаѧ ѿ ꙗ҆зы́ка твоегѡ̀ была̀ є҆сѝ:
13 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Because they say to you, ‘You are a devourer of men, and have been a bereaver of your nation;’
14 тогѡ̀ ра́ди человѣ́кѡвъ ктомꙋ̀ не поѧ́си и҆ ꙗ҆зы́ка твоегѡ̀ не ѡ҆безча́диши ктомꙋ̀, гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь.
14 therefore you shall devour men no more, and not bereave your nation any more,” says the Lord Yahweh.
15 И҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шитсѧ въ ва́съ ктомꙋ̀ безче́стїе ꙗ҆зы́кѡвъ, и҆ ᲂу҆кори̑зны люді́й не прїи́мете ктомꙋ̀, и҆ ꙗ҆зы́къ тво́й не бꙋ́детъ без̾ ча̑дъ ктомꙋ̀, гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь.
15 “I won’t let you hear the shame of the nations any more. You won’t bear the reproach of the peoples any more, and you won’t cause your nation to stumble any more,” says the Lord Yahweh.’”
16 И҆ бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко мнѣ̀ гл҃ѧ:
16 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
17 сы́не человѣ́чь, до́мъ і҆и҃левъ всели́сѧ на землѝ свое́й, и҆ ѡ҆скверни́ша ю҆̀ пꙋте́мъ свои́мъ и҆ кꙋмі́рми свои́ми и҆ нечистота́ми свои́ми, и҆ по нечистотѣ̀ мѣ̑сѧчнаѧ и҆мꙋ́щїѧ бы́сть пꙋ́ть и҆́хъ пред̾ лице́мъ мои́мъ:
17 “Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, they defiled it by their ways and by their deeds. Their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.
18 и҆ и҆злїѧ́хъ ꙗ҆́рость мою̀ на нѧ̀, кро́ви ра́ди, ю҆́же пролїѧ́ша на зе́млю, и҆ кꙋмі́рми свои́ми ѡ҆скверни́ша ю҆̀,
18 Therefore I poured out my wrath on them for the blood which they had poured out on the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols.
19 и҆ разсы́пахъ ѧ҆̀ во ꙗ҆зы́ки и҆ развѣ́ѧхъ ѧ҆̀ во страны̑: по пꙋтѝ и҆́хъ и҆ по начина́нїю и҆́хъ сꙋди́хъ и҆̀мъ.
19 I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries. I judged them according to their way and according to their deeds.
20 И҆ внидо́ша во ꙗ҆зы́ки, въ нѧ́же внидо́ша та́мѡ, и҆ ѡ҆скверни́ша и҆́мѧ моѐ ст҃о́е, внегда̀ глаго́латисѧ и҆̀мъ: лю́дїе гдⷭ҇ни сі́и и҆ ѿ землѝ своеѧ̀ и҆зыдо́ша.
20 When they came to the nations where they went, they profaned my holy name, in that men said of them, ‘These are Yahweh’s people, and have left his land.’
21 И҆ пощади́хъ ѧ҆̀ и҆́мене ра́ди моегѡ̀ ст҃а́гѡ є҆́же ѡ҆скверни́ша до́мъ і҆и҃левъ во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ, а҆́може внидо́ша.
21 But I had respect for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations where they went.
22 Тогѡ̀ ра́ди рцы̀ до́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: не ва́мъ а҆́зъ творю̀, до́ме і҆и҃левъ, но и҆́мене моегѡ̀ ра́ди ст҃а́гѡ, є҆́же ѡ҆скверни́сте во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ, та́мѡ а҆́може внидо́сте.
22 “Therefore tell the house of Israel, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “I don’t do this for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you went.
23 И҆ ѡ҆сщ҃ꙋ̀ и҆́мѧ моѐ вели́кое, ѡ҆скверне́нное во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ, є҆́же ѡ҆скверни́сте средѣ̀ и҆́хъ, и҆ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ютъ ꙗ҆зы́цы, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ є҆́смь гдⷭ҇ь, гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь, внегда̀ ѡ҆сщ҃ꙋ́сѧ въ ва́съ пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма и҆́хъ.
23 I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am Yahweh,” says the Lord Yahweh, “when I am proven holy in you before their eyes.
24 И҆ возмꙋ̀ вы̀ ѿ ꙗ҆зы̑къ и҆ соберꙋ̀ вы̀ ѿ всѣ́хъ земе́ль, и҆ введꙋ̀ вы̀ въ зе́млю ва́шꙋ,
24 “‘“For I will take you from among the nations and gather you out of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 и҆ воскроплю̀ на вы̀ во́дꙋ чи́стꙋ, и҆ ѡ҆чи́ститесѧ ѿ всѣ́хъ нечисто́тъ ва́шихъ и҆ ѿ всѣ́хъ кꙋмі́рѡвъ ва́шихъ, и҆ ѡ҆чи́щꙋ ва́съ.
25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
26 И҆ да́мъ ва́мъ се́рдце но́во и҆ дꙋ́хъ но́въ да́мъ ва́мъ, и҆ ѿимꙋ̀ се́рдце ка́менное ѿ пло́ти ва́шеѧ и҆ да́мъ ва́мъ се́рдце пло́тѧно, и҆ дх҃ъ мо́й да́мъ въ ва́съ:
26 I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
27 и҆ сотворю̀, да въ за́повѣдехъ мои́хъ хо́дите, и҆ сꙋды̀ моѧ̑ сохранитѐ и҆ сотворитѐ ѧ҆̀.
27 I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes. You will keep my ordinances and do them.
28 И҆ вселите́сѧ на землѝ, ю҆́же да́хъ ѻ҆тцє́мъ ва́шымъ, и҆ бꙋ́дете мѝ въ лю́ди, а҆́зъ же бꙋ́дꙋ ва́мъ въ бг҃а.
28 You will dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
29 И҆ сп҃сꙋ̀ вы̀ ѿ всѣ́хъ нечисто́тъ ва́шихъ (и҆ ѡ҆чи́щꙋ вы̀ ѿ грѣ̑хъ ва́шихъ всѣ́хъ), и҆ призовꙋ̀ пшени́цꙋ и҆ ᲂу҆мно́жꙋ ю҆̀, и҆ не да́мъ на вы̀ гла́да:
29 I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and will multiply it, and lay no famine on you.
30 и҆ распложꙋ̀ пло́дъ древе́сный и҆ плоды̀ сє́льныѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ да не прїи́мете ктомꙋ̀ гла́дныѧ ᲂу҆кори́зны во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ.
30 I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field, that you may receive no more the reproach of famine among the nations.
31 И҆ помѧне́те пꙋти̑ своѧ̑ ѕлы̑ѧ и҆ начина̑нїѧ ва̑ша не блага̑ѧ, и҆ вознегодꙋ́ете пред̾ лице́мъ и҆́хъ ѡ҆ беззако́нїихъ ва́шихъ и҆ ѡ҆ ме́рзостехъ ва́шихъ.
31 “‘“Then you will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
32 Не ва́съ ра́ди а҆́зъ творю̀, до́ме і҆и҃левъ, гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь, вѣ́стно да бꙋ́детъ ва́мъ, (до́ме і҆и҃левъ:) постыди́тесѧ и҆ ᲂу҆срами́тесѧ ѿ пꙋті́й ва́шихъ, до́ме і҆и҃левъ.
32 I don’t do this for your sake,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, house of Israel.”
33 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: во́ньже де́нь ѡ҆чи́щꙋ вы̀ ѿ всѣ́хъ беззако́нїй ва́шихъ и҆ населю̀ гра́ды, и҆ соградѧ́тсѧ пꙋсты̑ни,
33 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited and the waste places will be built.
34 и҆ землѧ̀ поги́бшаѧ воздѣ́лаетсѧ вмѣ́стѡ тогѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ погꙋбле́на бы́сть пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма всѧ́кагѡ мимоходѧ́щагѡ:
34 The land that was desolate will be tilled instead of being a desolation in the sight of all who passed by.
35 и҆ рекꙋ́тъ: землѧ̀ ѻ҆́наѧ поги́бшаѧ бы́сть ꙗ҆́кѡ вертогра́дъ сла́дости, и҆ гра́ди ѡ҆пꙋстѣ́вшїи и҆ разоре́ннїи и҆ раско́паннїи, забра́лы ᲂу҆твержде́нни ста́ша:
35 They will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden. The waste, desolate, and ruined cities are fortified and inhabited.’
36 и҆ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ютъ ꙗ҆зы́цы, є҆ли́цы ѡ҆ста́нꙋтсѧ ѡ҆́крестъ ва́съ, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ гдⷭ҇ь возгради́хъ разорє́нныѧ и҆ насади́хъ погꙋблє́нныѧ: а҆́зъ гдⷭ҇ь гл҃ахъ и҆ сотворю̀.
36 Then the nations that are left around you will know that I, Yahweh, have built the ruined places and planted that which was desolate. I, Yahweh, have spoken it, and I will do it.”
37 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ а҆дѡнаі̀ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, є҆щѐ ѡ҆брѧ́щꙋсѧ до́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ, є҆́же сотвори́ти и҆̀мъ: ᲂу҆мно́жꙋ и҆̀хъ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́вцы, человѣ́ки ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́вцы ст҃ы̑ѧ,
37 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “For this, moreover, I will be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them: I will increase them with men like a flock.
38 ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́вцы і҆ерⷭ҇ли̑мли во пра́здникахъ є҆гѡ̀, та́кѡ бꙋ́дꙋтъ гра́ди ѡ҆пꙋстѣ́вшїи по́лни ста́дъ человѣ́ческихъ: и҆ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́ютъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ гдⷭ҇ь.
38 As the flock for sacrifice, as the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts, so the waste cities will be filled with flocks of men. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.’”

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).

    And those of them who declare that God would make a new covenant with men, not such as that which He made with the fathers at Mount Horeb, and would give to men a new heart and a new spirit; and again, "And remember ye not the things of old: behold, I make new things which shall now arise, and …
