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 Гдⷭ҇и, кто̀ вѣ́рова слꙋ́хꙋ на́шемꙋ, и҆ мы́шца гдⷭ҇нѧ комꙋ̀ ѿкры́сѧ;
1 Who has believed our message? To whom has Yahweh’s arm been revealed?
2 Возвѣсти́хомъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆троча̀ пред̾ ни́мъ ꙗ҆́кѡ ко́рень въ землѝ жа́ждꙋщей, нѣ́сть ви́да є҆мꙋ̀, нижѐ сла́вы: и҆ ви́дѣхомъ є҆го̀, и҆ не и҆мѧ́ше ви́да, ни добро́ты:
2 For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no good looks or majesty. When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 но ви́дъ є҆гѡ̀ безче́стенъ, ᲂу҆ма́ленъ па́че всѣ́хъ сынѡ́въ человѣ́ческихъ: человѣ́къ въ ꙗ҆́звѣ сы́й и҆ вѣ́дый терпѣ́ти болѣ́знь, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿврати́сѧ лицѐ є҆гѡ̀, безче́стно бы́сть, и҆ не вмѣни́сѧ.
3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of suffering and acquainted with disease. He was despised as one from whom men hide their face; and we didn’t respect him.
4 Се́й грѣхѝ на́шѧ но́ситъ и҆ ѡ҆ на́съ болѣ́знꙋетъ, и҆ мы̀ вмѣни́хомъ є҆го̀ бы́ти въ трꙋдѣ̀ и҆ въ ꙗ҆́звѣ ѿ бг҃а и҆ во ѡ҆ѕлобле́нїи.
4 Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.
5 То́й же ꙗ҆́звенъ бы́сть за грѣхѝ на́шѧ и҆ мꙋ́ченъ бы́сть за беззакѡ́нїѧ на̑ша, наказа́нїе ми́ра на́шегѡ на не́мъ, ꙗ҆́звою є҆гѡ̀ мы̀ и҆сцѣлѣ́хомъ.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
6 Всѝ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́вцы заблꙋди́хомъ: человѣ́къ ѿ пꙋтѝ своегѡ̀ заблꙋдѝ, и҆ гдⷭ҇ь предадѐ є҆го̀ грѣ̑хъ ра́ди на́шихъ.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 И҆ то́й, занѐ ѡ҆ѕло́бленъ бы́сть, не ѿверза́етъ ᲂу҆́стъ свои́хъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆вча̀ на заколе́нїе веде́сѧ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́гнецъ пред̾ стригꙋ́щимъ є҆го̀ безгла́сенъ, та́кѡ не ѿверза́етъ ᲂу҆́стъ свои́хъ.
7 He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he didn’t open his mouth.
8 Во смире́нїи є҆гѡ̀ сꙋ́дъ є҆гѡ̀ взѧ́тсѧ: ро́дъ же є҆гѡ̀ кто̀ и҆сповѣ́сть; ꙗ҆́кѡ взе́млетсѧ ѿ землѝ живо́тъ є҆гѡ̀, ра́ди беззако́нїй люді́й мои́хъ веде́сѧ на сме́рть.
8 He was taken away by oppression and judgment. As for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living and stricken for the disobedience of my people?
9 И҆ да́мъ лꙋка̑выѧ вмѣ́стѡ погребе́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ бога̑тыѧ вмѣ́стѡ см҃рти є҆гѡ̀: ꙗ҆́кѡ беззако́нїѧ не сотворѝ, нижѐ ѡ҆брѣ́тесѧ ле́сть во ᲂу҆стѣ́хъ є҆гѡ̀.
9 They made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 И҆ гдⷭ҇ь хо́щетъ ѡ҆чⷭ҇тити є҆го̀ ѿ ꙗ҆́звы: а҆́ще да́стсѧ ѡ҆ грѣсѣ̀, дꙋша̀ ва́ша ᲂу҆́зритъ сѣ́мѧ долгоживо́тное.
10 Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
11 И҆ хо́щетъ гдⷭ҇ь рꙋко́ю свое́ю ѿѧ́ти болѣ́знь ѿ дꙋшѝ є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆ви́ти є҆мꙋ̀ свѣ́тъ и҆ созда́ти ра́зꙋмомъ, ѡ҆правда́ти првⷣнаго бла́гѡ слꙋжа́ща мнѡ́гимъ, и҆ грѣхѝ и҆́хъ то́й понесе́тъ.
11 After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди то́й наслѣ́дитъ мно́гихъ и҆ крѣ́пкихъ раздѣли́тъ кѡры́сти, занѐ пре́дана бы́сть на сме́рть дш҃а̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ со беззако́нными вмѣни́сѧ, и҆ то́й грѣхѝ мно́гихъ вознесѐ и҆ за беззакѡ́нїѧ и҆́хъ пре́данъ бы́сть.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.

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).
Therefore He shall inherit many, and He shall divide the spoil of the strong; because His soul was delivered to death: and He was numbered with the transgressors; and He bare the sins of many, and He was delivered up for their transgressions." Hear, too, how He was to ascend into heaven according to prophecy.
… the eunuch of the Ethiopians' queen reading these words which had been written: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and as a lamb is dumb before the shearer, so He opened not His mouth: in His humiliation His judgment was taken away;" and all the rest which the prophet proceeded to relate in regard to His passion …
… of judgment, who before, when he came hiddenly, was silent before His judge when He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and, as a lamb before the shearer, opened not His mouth as we read that it was prophesied of Him by Isaiah, and as we see it fulfilled in the Gospel.

For one saith, "Thou hast gone up on high, Thou hast led captivity captive, and hast received gifts amongst men." And, "The Lord strong and mighty in battle." And another saith, "He shall divide the spoils of the strong." For indeed to this purpose He came, that He might "preach deliverance to captives, and recovery of sight to the blind." …
