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 Сѣ́нь бо и҆мы́й зако́нъ грѧдꙋ́щихъ бла̑гъ, (а҆) не са́мый ѡ҆́бразъ веще́й, на всѧ́кое лѣ́то тѣ́миже же́ртвами, и҆̀хже прино́сѧтъ вы́нꙋ, никогда́же мо́жетъ пристꙋпа́ющихъ соверши́ти.
1 Σκιὰν γὰρ ἔχων ὁ νόμος τῶν μελλόντων ἀγαθῶν, οὐκ αὐτὴν τὴν εἰκόνα τῶν πραγμάτων, κατ᾽ ἐνιαυτὸν ταῖς αὐταῖς θυσίαις ἃς προσφέρουσιν εἰς τὸ διηνεκές, οὐδέποτε δύναται τοὺς προσερχομένους τελειῶσαι·
2 Поне́же преста́ли бы бы́ти приноси̑мы, ни є҆ди́нꙋ ктомꙋ̀ и҆мꙋ́щымъ со́вѣсть ѡ҆ грѣсѣ́хъ слꙋжа́щымъ, є҆ди́ною ѡ҆чищє́ннымъ.
2 ἐπεὶ οὐκ ἂν ἐπαύσαντο προσφερόμεναι, διὰ τὸ μηδεμίαν ἔχειν ἔτι συνείδησιν ἁμαρτιῶν τοὺς λατρεύοντας, ἅπαξ κεκαθαρμένους;
3 Но въ ни́хъ воспомина́нїе грѣхѡ́въ на ко́еждо лѣ́то быва́етъ,
3 ἀλλ᾽ ἐν αὐταῖς ἀνάμνησις ἁμαρτιῶν κατ᾽ ἐνιαυτόν·
4 невозмо́жно бо кро́ви ю҆́нчей и҆ ко́злей ѿпꙋща́ти грѣхѝ.
4 ἀδύνατον γὰρ αἷμα ταύρων καὶ τράγων ἀφαιρεῖν ἁμαρτίας.
5◆ Тѣ́мже входѧ̀ въ мі́ръ, гл҃етъ: же́ртвы и҆ приноше́нїѧ не восхотѣ́лъ є҆сѝ, тѣ́ло же соверши́лъ мѝ є҆сѝ:
5 Διὸ εἰσερχόμενος εἰς τὸν κόσμον λέγει· θυσίαν καὶ προσφορὰν οὐκ ἠθέλησας, σῶμα δὲ κατηρτίσω μοι·
7◆ Тогда̀ рѣ́хъ: сѐ, и҆дꙋ̀: въ глави́знѣ кни́жнѣй написа́сѧ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀, є҆́же сотвори́ти во́лю твою̀, бж҃е.
7 τότε εἶπον· ἰδοὺ ἥκω, ἐν κεφαλίδι βιβλίου γέγραπται περὶ ἐμοῦ, τοῦ ποιῆσαι, ὁ Θεός, τὸ θέλημά σου.
8 Вы́ше гл҃ѧ: ꙗ҆́кѡ же́ртвы и҆ приноше́нїѧ и҆ всесожже́нїй и҆ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ́хъ не восхотѣ́лъ є҆сѝ, нижѐ бл҃говоли́лъ є҆сѝ: ꙗ҆̀же по зако́нꙋ прино́сѧтсѧ:
8 ἀνώτερον λέγων ὅτι θυσίαν καὶ προσφορὰν καὶ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ περὶ ἁμαρτίας οὐκ ἠθέλησας οὐδὲ εὐδόκησας, αἵτινες κατὰ τὸν νόμον προσφέρονται,
9 тогда̀ речѐ: сѐ, и҆дꙋ̀ сотвори́ти во́лю твою̀, бж҃е. Ѿе́млетъ пе́рвое, да второ́е поста́витъ.
9 τότε εἴρηκεν· ἰδοὺ ἥκω τοῦ ποιῆσαι, ὁ Θεός, τὸ θέλημά σου. ἀναιρεῖ τὸ πρῶτον ἵνα τὸ δεύτερον στήσῃ.
10 Ѡ҆ не́йже во́ли ѡ҆сщ҃е́ни є҆смы̀ принесе́нїемъ тѣ́ла і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́ва є҆ди́ною.
10 ἐν ᾧ θελήματι ἡγιασμένοι ἐσμὲν διὰ τῆς προσφορᾶς τοῦ σώματος τοῦ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐφάπαξ.
11 И҆ всѧ́къ ᲂу҆́бѡ свѧще́нникъ стои́тъ на всѧ́къ де́нь слꙋжѧ̀ и҆ ты̑ѧжде мно́жицею приносѧ̀ жє́ртвы, ꙗ҆̀же никогда́же мо́гꙋтъ ѿѧ́ти грѣхѡ́въ.
11 Καὶ πᾶς μὲν ἱερεὺς ἕστηκε καθ᾽ ἡμέραν λειτουργῶν καὶ τὰς αὐτὰς πολλάκις προσφέρων θυσίας, αἵτινες οὐδέποτε δύνανται περιελεῖν ἁμαρτίας·
12 Ѻ҆́нъ же є҆ди́нꙋ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ́хъ прине́съ же́ртвꙋ, всегда̀ сѣди́тъ ѡ҆деснꙋ́ю бг҃а,
12 αὐτὸς δὲ μίαν ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτιῶν προσενέγκας θυσίαν εἰς τὸ διηνεκὲς ἐκάθισεν ἐν δεξιᾷ τοῦ Θεοῦ,
13 про́чее ѡ҆жида́ѧ, до́ндеже положа́тсѧ вразѝ є҆гѡ̀ подно́жїе но́гъ є҆гѡ̀:
13 τὸ λοιπὸν ἐκδεχόμενος ἕως τεθῶσιν οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτοῦ ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.
14 є҆ди́нѣмъ бо приноше́нїемъ соверши́лъ є҆́сть во вѣ́ки ѡ҆сщ҃а́емыхъ.
14 μιᾷ γὰρ προσφορᾷ τετελείωκεν εἰς τὸ διηνεκὲς τοὺς ἁγιαζομένους.
15 Свидѣ́тельствꙋетъ же на́мъ и҆ дх҃ъ ст҃ы́й, по рече́нномꙋ бо пре́жде:
15 Μαρτυρεῖ δὲ ἡμῖν καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον· μετὰ γὰρ τὸ προειρηκέναι,
16 се́й завѣ́тъ, є҆го́же завѣща́ю къ ни̑мъ по дне́хъ ѻ҆́нѣхъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, даѧ̀ зако́ны моѧ̑ на сердца̀ и҆́хъ, и҆ въ помышле́нїихъ и҆́хъ напишꙋ̀ и҆̀хъ:
16 αὕτη ἡ διαθήκη ἣν διαθήσομαι πρὸς αὐτοὺς μετὰ τὰς ἡμέρας ἐκείνας, λέγει Κύριος· διδοὺς νόμους μου ἐπὶ καρδίας αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν διανοιῶν αὐτῶν ἐπιγράψω αὐτούς,
17 (та́же гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь:) и҆ грѣхѡ́въ и҆́хъ и҆ беззако́нїй и҆́хъ не и҆́мамъ помѧнꙋ́ти ктомꙋ̀.
17 καὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τῶν ἀνομιῶν αὐτῶν οὐ μὴ μνησθῶ ἔτι.
18 А҆ и҆дѣ́же ѿпꙋще́нїе си́хъ, ктомꙋ̀ нѣ́сть приноше́нїѧ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ́хъ.
18 ὅπου δὲ ἄφεσις τούτων, οὐκέτι προσφορὰ περὶ ἁμαρτίας.
19 И҆мꙋ́ще ᲂу҆̀бо дерзнове́нїе, бра́тїе, входи́ти во ст҃а̑ѧ кро́вїю і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́вою, пꙋте́мъ но́вымъ и҆ живы́мъ,
19 Ἔχοντες οὖν, ἀδελφοί, παρρησίαν εἰς τὴν εἴσοδον τῶν Ἁγίων ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ Ἰησοῦ,
20 є҆го́же ѡ҆бнови́лъ є҆́сть на́мъ завѣ́сою, си́рѣчь пл҃тїю свое́ю,
20 ἣν ἐνεκαίνισεν ἡμῖν ὁδὸν πρόσφατον καὶ ζῶσαν διὰ τοῦ καταπετάσματος, τοῦτ᾽ ἔστι τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ,
21 и҆ і҆ере́а вели́ка над̾ до́момъ бж҃їимъ,
21 καὶ ἱερέα μέγαν ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ,
22 да пристꙋпа́емъ со и҆́стиннымъ се́рдцемъ во и҆звѣще́нїи вѣ́ры, ѡ҆кропле́ни сердцы̀ ѿ со́вѣсти лꙋка́выѧ и҆ и҆змове́ни тѣлесы̀ водо́ю чи́стою:
22 προσερχώμεθα μετὰ ἀληθινῆς καρδίας ἐν πληροφορίᾳ πίστεως ἐρραντισμένοι τὰς καρδίας ἀπὸ συνειδήσεως πονηρᾶς,
23 да держи́мъ и҆сповѣ́данїе ᲂу҆пова́нїѧ неꙋкло́нное, вѣ́ренъ бо є҆́сть ѡ҆бѣща́вый:
23 καὶ λελουμένοι τὸ σῶμα ὕδατι καθαρῷ κατέχωμεν τὴν ὁμολογίαν τῆς ἐλπίδος ἀκλινῆ· πιστὸς γὰρ ὁ ἐπαγγειλάμενος·
24 и҆ да разꙋмѣва́емъ дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га въ поѡщре́нїи любвѐ и҆ до́брыхъ дѣ́лъ,
24 καὶ κατανοῶμεν ἀλλήλους εἰς παροξυσμὸν ἀγάπης καὶ καλῶν ἔργων,
25 не ѡ҆ставлѧ́юще собра́нїѧ своегѡ̀, ꙗ҆́коже є҆́сть нѣ̑кимъ ѡ҆бы́чай, но (дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га) подвиза́юще, и҆ толи́кѡ па́че, є҆ли́кѡ ви́дите приближа́ющїйсѧ де́нь (сꙋ́дный).
25 μὴ ἐγκαταλείποντες τὴν ἐπισυναγωγὴν ἑαυτῶν, καθὼς ἔθος τισίν, ἀλλὰ παρακαλοῦντες, καὶ τοσούτῳ μᾶλλον, ὅσῳ βλέπετε ἐγγίζουσαν τὴν ἡμέραν.
26 Во́лею бо согрѣша́ющымъ на́мъ по прїѧ́тїи ра́зꙋма и҆́стины, ктомꙋ̀ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ́хъ не ѡ҆брѣта́етсѧ же́ртва,
26 Ἑκουσίως γὰρ ἁμαρτανόντων ἡμῶν μετὰ τὸ λαβεῖν τὴν ἐπίγνωσιν τῆς ἀληθείας, οὐκέτι περὶ ἁμαρτιῶν ἀπολείπεται θυσία,
27 стра́шно же нѣ́кое ча́ѧнїе сꙋда̀ и҆ ѻ҆гнѧ̀ ре́вность, поѧ́сти хотѧ́щагѡ сопроти̑вныѧ.
27 φοβερὰ δέ τις ἐκδοχὴ κρίσεως καὶ πυρὸς ζῆλος ἐσθίειν μέλλοντος τοὺς ὑπεναντίους.
28 Ѿве́рглсѧ кто̀ зако́на мѡѷсе́ова, без̾ милосе́рдїѧ при двои́хъ и҆лѝ трїе́хъ свидѣ́телехъ ᲂу҆мира́етъ:
28 ἀθετήσας τις νόμον Μωϋσέως χωρὶς οἰκτιρμῶν ἐπὶ δυσὶν ἢ τρισὶ μάρτυσιν ἀποθνήσκει·
29 коли́кѡ мнитѐ го́ршїѧ сподо́битсѧ мꙋ́ки, и҆́же сн҃а бж҃їѧ попра́вый, и҆ кро́вь завѣ́тнꙋю скве́рнꙋ возмни́въ, є҆́юже ѡ҆ст҃и́сѧ, и҆ дх҃а блгⷣти ᲂу҆кори́вый;
29 πόσῳ δοκεῖτε χείρονος ἀξιωθήσεται τιμωρίας ὁ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ καταπατήσας καὶ τὸ αἷμα τῆς διαθήκης κοινὸν ἡγησάμενος, ἐν ᾧ ἡγιάσθη, καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμα τῆς χάριτος ἐνυβρίσας;
30 Вѣ́мы бо ре́кшаго: мнѣ̀ ѿмще́нїе, а҆́зъ возда́мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь. И҆ па́ки: ꙗ҆́кѡ сꙋ́дитъ гдⷭ҇ь лю́демъ свои̑мъ.
30 οἴδαμεν γὰρ τὸν εἰπόντα· ἐμοὶ ἐκδίκησις, ἐγὼ ἀνταποδώσω[, λέγει Κύριος]· καὶ πάλιν· Κύριος κρινεῖ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ.
31 Стра́шно (є҆́сть) є҆́же впа́сти въ рꙋ́цѣ бг҃а жива́гѡ.
31 φοβερὸν τὸ ἐμπεσεῖν εἰς χεῖρας Θεοῦ ζῶντος.
32 Воспомина́йте же пє́рвыѧ дни̑ ва́шѧ, въ ни́хже просвѣти́вшесѧ, мнѡ́гїѧ стра̑сти претерпѣ́сте страда́нїй,
32 Ἀναμιμνήσκεσθε δὲ τὰς πρότερον ἡμέρας, ἐν αἷς φωτισθέντες πολλὴν ἄθλησιν ὑπεμείνατε παθημάτων,
33 ѻ҆́во ᲂу҆́бѡ, поноше́ньми и҆ скорбьмѝ позо́ръ бы́вше, ѻ҆́во же, ѡ҆́бщницы бы́вше живꙋ́щымъ та́кѡ:
33 τοῦτο μὲν ὀνειδισμοῖς τε καὶ θλίψεσι θεατριζόμενοι, τοῦτο δὲ κοινωνοὶ τῶν οὕτως ἀναστρεφομένων γενηθέντες.
34 и҆́бо ᲂу҆́замъ мои̑мъ спострада́сте и҆ разграбле́нїе и҆мѣ́нїй ва́шихъ съ ра́достїю прїѧ́сте, вѣ́дѧще и҆мѣ́ти себѣ̀ и҆мѣ́нїе на нб҃сѣ́хъ пребыва́ющее и҆ лꙋ́чшее.
34 καὶ γὰρ τοῖς δεσμοῖς μου συνεπαθήσατε καὶ τὴν ἁρπαγὴν τῶν ὑπαρχόντων ὑμῶν μετὰ χαρᾶς προσεδέξασθε, γινώσκοντες ἔχειν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς κρείττονα ὕπαρξιν ἐν οὐρανοῖς καὶ μένουσαν.
35 Не ѿлага́йте ᲂу҆̀бо дерзнове́нїѧ ва́шегѡ, є҆́же и҆́мать мздовоздаѧ́нїе вели́ко.
35 Μὴ ἀποβάλητε οὖν τὴν παρρησίαν ὑμῶν, ἥτις ἔχει μισθαποδοσίαν μεγάλην.
36 Терпѣ́нїѧ бо и҆́мате потре́бꙋ, да во́лю бж҃їю сотво́рше, прїи́мете ѡ҆бѣтова́нїе:
36 ὑπομονῆς γὰρ ἔχετε χρείαν, ἵνα τὸ θέλημα τοῦ Θεοῦ ποιήσαντες κομίσησθε τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν.
37 є҆ще́ бо ма́ло є҆ли́кѡ є҆ли́кѡ, грѧды́й прїи́детъ и҆ не ᲂу҆косни́тъ.
37 ἔτι γὰρ μικρὸν ὅσον ὅσον, ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἥξει καὶ οὐ χρονιεῖ.
38 А҆ првⷣный ѿ вѣ́ры жи́въ бꙋ́детъ: и҆ а҆́ще ѡ҆бине́тсѧ, не бл҃говоли́тъ дш҃а̀ моѧ̀ ѡ҆ не́мъ.
38 ὁ δὲ δίκαιος ἐκ πίστεως ζήσεται· καὶ ἐὰν ὑποστείληται, οὐκ εὐδοκεῖ ἡ ψυχή μου ἐν αὐτῷ.
39 Мы́ же (бра́тїе) нѣ́смы ѡ҆бинове́нїѧ въ поги́бель, но вѣ́ры въ снабдѣ́нїе дꙋшѝ.
39 ἡμεῖς δὲ οὐκ ἐσμὲν ὑποστολῆς εἰς ἀπώλειαν, ἀλλὰ πίστεως εἰς περιποίησιν ψυχῆς.

Why does my Bible say something different?
- Psalm 40:6 and Hebrews 10:5: “ears” or “a body”?
In the Hebrew text of Psalm 40 God has “dug” or “opened” the psalmist’s ears. In the Greek Septuagint (Psalm 39:7) God has “prepared a body” for him, and the Epistle to the Hebrews quotes that Greek wording of Christ coming into the world. The Orthodox Church reads the Greek. Scholars still debate how the Greek reading arose.
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 has gone before he had shown that the sacrifices were unavailing for perfect purification, and were a type, and greatly defective. Since then there was this objection to his argument, If they are types, how is it that, after the truth is come, they have not ceased, nor given place, but are still performed?

… incur danger, or are deprived of their goods, but of these also, thus saying, "Call to remembrance the former days, in which after ye were illuminated ye endured a great fight of afflictions; partly whilst ye were made a gazing stock by reproaches, and afflictions." On this account then Christ hath appointed the reward also to be great.

… one incorporeal for the incorporeal part, and the other bodily for the body: the water cleanses the body, and the Spirit seals the soul; that we may draw near unto God, having our heart sprinkled by the Spirit, and our body washed with pure water.

You hope to "reign with" Christ; but you "do despite unto the Spirit of grace" by assigning Him the rank of a slave and a subordinate.

Hear him saying, "Yet a little while, and He that cometh will come, and will not tarry. The Lord is at hand, be careful for nothing;" and again, "The fashion of this world passeth away." For neither doth he command only, but also soothes, as a physician should.
