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 Глаго́лю же: въ є҆ли́ко вре́мѧ наслѣ́дникъ мла́дъ є҆́сть, ничи́мже лꙋ́чшїй є҆́сть раба̀, госпо́дь сы́й всѣ́хъ:
1 TAMBIÉN digo: Entre tanto que el heredero es niño, en nada difiere del siervo, aunque es señor de todo;
1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a bondservant, though he is lord of all,
2 но под̾ повели́тєли и҆ приста̑вники є҆́сть да́же до наро́ка ѻ҆́тча.
2 Mas está debajo de tutores y curadores hasta el tiempo señalado por el padre.
2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed by the father.
3 Та́кожде и҆ мы̀, є҆гда̀ бѣ́хомъ мла́ди, под̾ стїхі́ами бѣ́хомъ мі́ра порабоще́ни:
3 Así también nosotros, cuando éramos niños, éramos siervos bajo los rudimentos del mundo.
3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.
4 Є҆гда́ же прїи́де кончи́на лѣ́та, посла̀ бг҃ъ сн҃а своего̀ є҆диноро́днаго, ражда́емаго ѿ жены̀, быва́ема под̾ зако́номъ,
4 Mas venido el cumplimiento del tiempo, Dios envió su Hijo, hecho de mujer, hecho súbdito á la ley,
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,
5 да подзакѡ́нныѧ и҆скꙋ́питъ, да всыновле́нїе воспрїи́мемъ.
5 Para que redimiese á los que estaban debajo de la ley, á fin de que recibiésemos la adopción de hijos.
5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as children.
6 И҆ поне́же є҆стѐ сн҃ове, посла̀ бг҃ъ дх҃а сн҃а своегѡ̀ въ сердца̀ ва́ша, вопїю́ща: а҆́вва ѻ҆́ч҃е.
6 Y por cuanto sois hijos, Dios envió el Espíritu de su Hijo en vuestros corazones, el cual clama: Abba, Padre.
6 And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”
7 Тѣ́мже ᲂу҆жѐ нѣ́си ра́бъ, но сы́нъ: а҆́ще ли же сы́нъ, и҆ наслѣ́дникъ бж҃їй і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́мъ.
7 Así que ya no eres más siervo, sino hijo; y si hijo, también heredero de Dios por Cristo.
7 So you are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
8 Но тогда̀ ᲂу҆́бѡ не вѣ́дꙋще бг҃а, слꙋжи́сте не по є҆стествꙋ̀ сꙋ́щымъ богѡ́мъ:
8 Antes, en otro tiempo, no conociendo á Dios, servíais á los que por naturaleza no son dioses:
8 However at that time, not knowing God, you were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods.
9 нн҃ѣ же, позна́вше бг҃а, па́че же позна́ни бы́вше ѿ бг҃а, ка́кѡ возвраща́етесѧ па́ки на немощны̑ѧ и҆ хꙋды́ѧ стїхі́и, и҆̀мже па́ки свы́ше слꙋжи́ти хо́щете;
9 Mas ahora, habiendo conocido á Dios, ó más bien, siendo conocidos de Dios, ¿cómo os volvéis de nuevo á los flacos y pobres rudimentos, en los cuales queréis volver á servir?
9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be in bondage all over again?
10 дни̑ смотрѧ́ете, и҆ мцⷭ҇ы, и҆ времена̀, и҆ лѣ̑та.
10 Guardáis los días, y los meses, y los tiempos, y los años.
10 You observe days, months, seasons, and years.
11 Бою́сѧ ѡ҆ ва́съ, є҆да̀ ка́кѡ всꙋ́е трꙋди́хсѧ въ ва́съ.
11 Temo de vosotros, que no haya trabajado en vano en vosotros.
11 I am afraid for you, that I might have wasted my labor for you.
12 Бꙋ́дите ꙗ҆́коже а҆́зъ, занѐ и҆ а҆́зъ, ꙗ҆́коже вы̀: бра́тїе, молю̀ вы̀. Ничи́мже менѐ ѡ҆би́дѣсте:
12 Hermanos, os ruego, sed como yo, porque yo soy como vosotros: ningún agravio me habéis hecho.
12 I beg you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong,
13 вѣ́сте же, ꙗ҆́кѡ за не́мощь пло́ти благовѣсти́хъ ва́мъ пе́рвѣе:
13 Que vosotros sabéis que por flaqueza de carne os anuncié el evangelio al principio:
13 but you know that because of weakness in the flesh I preached the Good News to you the first time.
14 и҆ и҆скꙋше́нїѧ моегѡ̀, є҆́же во пло́ти мое́й, не ᲂу҆ничижи́сте, ни ѡ҆плева́сте, но ꙗ҆́коже а҆́гг҃ла бж҃їѧ прїѧ́сте мѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ хрⷭ҇та̀ і҆и҃са.
14 Y no desechasteis ni menospreciasteis mi tentación que [estaba] en mi carne: antes me recibisteis como á un ángel de Dios, como á Cristo Jesús.
14 That which was a temptation to you in my flesh, you didn’t despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15 Ко́е ᲂу҆̀бо бѧ́ше бл҃же́нство ва́ше; Свидѣ́тельствꙋю бо ва́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ, а҆́ще бы бы́ло мо́щно, ѻ҆чеса̀ ва̑ша и҆звертѣ́вше да́ли бы́сте мѝ.
15 ¿Dónde está pues vuestra bienaventuranza? porque yo os doy testimonio que si se pudiera [hacer], os hubierais sacado vuestros ojos para dármelos.
15 What was the blessing you enjoyed? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.
16 Тѣ́мже вра́гъ ва́мъ бы́хъ, и҆́стинꙋ ва́мъ глаго́лѧ;
16 ¿Heme pues hecho vuestro enemigo, diciéndoos la verdad?
16 So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
17 Ревнꙋ́ютъ по ва́съ не до́брѣ, но ѿлꙋчи́ти ва́съ хотѧ́тъ, да и҆̀мъ ревнꙋ́ете.
17 Tienen celos de vosotros, [pero] no bien: antes os quieren echar fuera para que vosotros los celéis á ellos.
17 They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.
18 Добро́ же, є҆́же ревнова́ти всегда̀ въ до́брѣмъ, и҆ не то́чїю внегда̀ приходи́ти мѝ къ ва́мъ.
18 Bueno es ser celosos en bien siempre; y no solamente cuando estoy presente con vosotros.
18 But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.
19 Ча̑дца моѧ̑, и҆́миже па́ки болѣ́знꙋю, до́ндеже воѡбрази́тсѧ хрⷭ҇то́съ въ ва́съ:
19 Hijitos míos, que vuelvo otra vez á estar de parto de vosotros, hasta que Cristo sea formado en vosotros;
19 My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—
20 хотѣ́лъ же бы́хъ прїитѝ къ ва́мъ нн҃ѣ и҆ и҆змѣни́ти гла́съ мо́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ не домышлѧ́юсѧ ѡ҆ ва́съ.
20 Querría cierto estar ahora con vosotros, y mudar mi voz; porque estoy perplejo en cuanto á vosotros.
20 but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
21 Глаго́лите мѝ, и҆̀же под̾ зако́номъ хо́щете бы́ти: зако́на ли не слꙋ́шаете;
21 Decidme, los que queréis estar debajo de la ley, ¿no habéis oído la ley?
21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, don’t you listen to the law?
22 Пи́сано бо є҆́сть, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆враа́мъ два̀ сы̑на и҆мѣ̀: є҆ди́наго ѿ рабы̀, а҆ дрꙋга́го ѿ свобо́дныѧ.
22 Porque escrito está que Abraham tuvo dos hijos; uno de la sierva, el otro de la libre.
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant, and one by the free woman.
23 Но и҆́же ѿ рабы̀, по пло́ти роди́сѧ: а҆ и҆́же ѿ свобо́дныѧ, по ѡ҆бѣтова́нїю.
23 Mas el de la sierva nació según la carne; pero el de la libre [nació] por la promesa.
23 However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.
24 Ꙗ҆̀же сꙋ́ть и҆носказа́єма: сїѧ̑ бо є҆ста̀ два̀ завѣ̑та: є҆ди́нъ ᲂу҆́бѡ ѿ горы̀ сїна́йскїѧ, въ рабо́тꙋ ражда́ѧй, и҆́же є҆́сть а҆га́рь:
24 Las cuales cosas son dichas por alegoría: porque estas [mujeres] son los dos pactos; el uno ciertamente del monte Sinaí, el cual engendró para servidumbre, que es Agar.
24 These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Hagar.
25 а҆га́рь бо, сїна̀ гора̀ є҆́сть во а҆раві́и, прилага́етсѧ же нн҃ѣшнемꙋ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мꙋ, рабо́таетъ же съ ча̑ды свои́ми:
25 Porque Agar ó Sinaí es un monte de Arabia, el cual es conjunto á la que ahora es Jerusalem, la cual sirve con sus hijos.
25 For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.
26 а҆ вы́шнїй і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ свобо́дь є҆́сть, и҆́же є҆́сть ма́ти всѣ̑мъ на́мъ.
26 Mas la Jerusalem de arriba libre es; la cual es la madre de todos nosotros.
26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
27 Пи́сано бо є҆́сть: возвесели́сѧ, непло́ды, не ражда́ющаѧ: расто́ргни и҆ возопѝ, неболѧ́щаѧ: ꙗ҆́кѡ мнѡ́га ча̑да пꙋсты́ѧ па́че, не́жели и҆мꙋ́щїѧ мꙋ́жа.
27 Porque está escrito: Alégrate, estéril, que no pares: prorrumpe y clama, la que no estás de parto; porque más son los hijos de la dejada, que de la que tiene marido.
27 For it is written, “Rejoice, you barren who don’t bear. Break out and shout, you who don’t travail. For the desolate women have more children than her who has a husband.”
28 Мы́ же, бра́тїе, по і҆саа́кꙋ ѡ҆бѣтова́нїѧ ча̑да є҆смы̀.
28 Así que, hermanos, nosotros como Isaac somos hijos de la promesa.
28 Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise.
29 Но ꙗ҆́коже тогда̀ по пло́ти роди́выйсѧ гонѧ́ше дꙋхо́внаго, та́кѡ и҆ нн҃ѣ.
29 Empero como entonces el que era engendrado según la carne, perseguía al que [había nacido] según el Espíritu, así también ahora.
29 But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.
30 Но что̀ глаго́летъ писа́нїе; И҆зженѝ рабꙋ̀ и҆ сы́на є҆ѧ̀, не и҆́мать бо наслѣ́довати сы́нъ рабы́нинъ съ сы́номъ свобо́дныѧ.
30 Mas ¿qué dice la Escritura? Echa fuera á la sierva y á su hijo; porque no será heredero el hijo de la sierva con el hijo de la libre.
30 However, what does the Scripture say? “Throw out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant will not inherit with the son of the free woman.”
31 Тѣ́мже, бра́тїе, нѣ́смы рабы̑нина ча̑да, но свобо́дныѧ.
31 De manera, hermanos, que no somos hijos de la sierva, mas de la libre.
31 So then, brothers, we are not children of a servant, but of the free woman.

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).
… in what sense [God] says, "That is a people who was not a people; and she is beloved who was not beloved;" and in what sense He says that "more are the children of her that was desolate, than of her who possessed a husband." For in reference to these points, and others of a like nature, the apostle exclaims: …
For she had "been the wife of one man," had requited her parents, had guided her house piously, was "well-reported of for good works," had "brought up children," as often travailing in birth of them as she saw them swerving from Thee.

For that He did come forth of the Virgin's flesh, He hath declared by speaking of "that which was conceived in her;" and Paul, by saying, "made of a woman;" whereby he stops the mouths of them that say, Christ came among us as through some conduit.

For God sent forth His Son, says Paul, not made of a man and a woman, but made of a woman only, that is of a virgin.
