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 Ꙗ҆вле́нъ бы́хъ не и҆́щꙋщымъ менѐ, ѡ҆брѣто́хсѧ не вопроша́ющымъ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀, реко́хъ: сѐ, є҆́смь: ꙗ҆зы́кꙋ, и҆̀же не призва́ша и҆́мене моегѡ̀.
1 “I am inquired of by those who didn’t ask. I am found by those who didn’t seek me. I said, ‘See me, see me,’ to a nation that was not called by my name.
2 Простро́хъ рꙋ́цѣ моѝ ве́сь де́нь къ лю́демъ не покарѧ́ющымсѧ и҆ проти́вꙋ глаго́лющымъ, и҆̀же не ходи́ша пꙋте́мъ и҆́стиннымъ, но в̾слѣ́дъ грѣхѡ́въ свои́хъ.
2 I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts;
3 Лю́дїе сі́и разгнѣвлѧ́ющїи мѧ̀ пред̾ лице́мъ мои́мъ прⷭ҇нѡ: ті́и жє́ртвы прино́сѧтъ въ вертогра́дѣхъ и҆ кадѧ́тъ во чре́пѣхъ бѣсѡ́мъ, и҆̀же не сꙋ́ть,
3 a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on bricks;
4 и҆ во гробѣ́хъ и҆ во пеще́рахъ лежа́тъ со́нїй ра́ди, и҆̀же ꙗ҆дѧ́тъ мѧса̀ свина̑ѧ и҆ ю҆хꙋ̀ тре́бъ, ѡ҆скверне́ни сосꙋ́ди и҆́хъ всѝ:
4 who sit among the graves, and spend nights in secret places; who eat pig’s meat, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 и҆̀же глаго́лютъ: ѿидѝ ѿ менє̀, не прикосни́сѧ мнѣ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ чи́стъ є҆́смь. Се́й ды́мъ ꙗ҆́рости моеѧ̀, ѻ҆́гнь гори́тъ въ не́мъ всѧ̑ дни̑.
5 who say, ‘Stay by yourself, don’t come near to me, for I am holier than you.’ These are smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all day.
6 Сѐ, написа́сѧ предо мно́ю: не ᲂу҆молчꙋ̀, до́ндеже ѿда́мъ въ нѣ̑дра и҆̀мъ грѣхѝ и҆́хъ и҆ грѣхѝ ѻ҆тє́цъ и҆́хъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь:
6 “Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will repay, yes, I will repay into their bosom
7 и҆̀же кадѧ́хꙋ на гора́хъ и҆ на хо́лмѣхъ ᲂу҆кори́ша мѧ̀, ѿда́мъ дѣла̀ и҆́хъ въ нѣ̑дра и҆̀мъ.
7 your own iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says Yahweh, “who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills. Therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom.”
8 Та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: и҆́мже ѡ҆́бразомъ ѡ҆брѣта́етсѧ ꙗ҆́года на гре́знѣ, и҆ рекꙋ́тъ: не погꙋбѝ є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ блгⷭ҇ве́нїе є҆́сть въ не́мъ: та́кѡ сотворю̀ слꙋжа́щагѡ мѝ ра́ди, не и҆́мамъ всѣ́хъ погꙋби́ти ра́ди є҆гѡ̀:
8 Yahweh says, “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’ so I will do for my servants’ sake, that I may not destroy them all.
9 и҆ и҆зведꙋ̀ и҆з̾ і҆а́кѡва сѣ́мѧ и҆ и҆з̾ і҆ꙋ́ды, и҆ наслѣ́дитъ го́рꙋ ст҃ꙋ́ю мою̀, и҆ наслѣ́дѧтъ и҆збра́ннїи моѝ и҆ рабѝ моѝ и҆ вселѧ́тсѧ та́мѡ.
9 I will bring offspring out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains. My chosen will inherit it, and my servants will dwell there.
10 И҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ во дꙋбра́вѣ ѡ҆гра̑ды стадѡ́мъ, и҆ ю҆до́ль а҆хѡ́рскаѧ въ поко́ище говѧ́дѡвъ лю́демъ мои̑мъ, и҆̀же взыска́ша менѐ.
10 Sharon will be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who have sought me.
11 Вы́ же, ѡ҆ста́вившїи мѧ̀ и҆ забыва́ющїи го́рꙋ ст҃ꙋ́ю мою̀, и҆ ᲂу҆готовлѧ́ющїи де́мѡнꙋ трапе́зꙋ и҆ и҆сполнѧ́ющїи ща́стїю растворе́нїе,
11 “But you who forsake Yahweh, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
12 а҆́зъ преда́мъ ва́съ под̾ ме́чь, всѝ закла́нїемъ паде́те: ꙗ҆́кѡ зва́хъ ва́съ, и҆ не послꙋ́шасте, гл҃ахъ, и҆ преслꙋ́шасте и҆ сотвори́сте лꙋка́вое предо мно́ю, и҆ ꙗ҆̀же не хотѣ́хъ, и҆збра́сте.
12 I will destine you to the sword, and you will all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you didn’t answer. When I spoke, you didn’t listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
13 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, рабо́тающїи мѝ ꙗ҆́сти бꙋ́дꙋтъ, вы́ же вза́лчете: сѐ, рабо́тающїи мѝ пи́ти бꙋ́дꙋтъ, вы́ же возжа́ждете:
13 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says, “Behold, my servants will eat, but you will be hungry; behold, my servants will drink, but you will be thirsty. Behold, my servants will rejoice, but you will be disappointed.
14 сѐ, рабо́тающїи мѝ возра́дꙋютсѧ, вы́ же посрамите́сѧ: сѐ, рабо́тающїи мѝ возвеселѧ́тсѧ въ весе́лїи се́рдца, вы́ же возопїе́те въ болѣ́зни се́рдца ва́шегѡ и҆ ѿ сокрꙋше́нїѧ дꙋ́ха воспла́четесѧ.
14 Behold, my servants will sing for joy of heart, but you will cry for sorrow of heart, and will wail for anguish of spirit.
15 Ѡ҆ста́вите бо и҆́мѧ ва́ше въ насыще́нїе и҆збра̑ннымъ мои̑мъ, ва́съ же и҆збїе́тъ гдⷭ҇ь: рабо́тающымъ же мнѣ̀ нарече́тсѧ и҆́мѧ но́вое,
15 You will leave your name for a curse to my chosen, and the Lord Yahweh will kill you. He will call his servants by another name,
16 є҆́же блгⷭ҇ви́тсѧ на землѝ, благословѧ́тъ бо бг҃а и҆́стиннаго: и҆ кленꙋ́щїисѧ на землѝ клѧ́тисѧ бꙋ́дꙋтъ бг҃омъ и҆́стиннымъ, забꙋ́дꙋтъ бо печа́ль свою̀ пе́рвꙋю, и҆ не взы́детъ и҆̀мъ на се́рдце.
16 so that he who blesses himself on the earth will bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears on the earth will swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
17 Бꙋ́детъ бо не́бо но́во и҆ землѧ̀ нова̀, и҆ не помѧнꙋ́тъ пре́жнихъ, нижѐ взы́дꙋтъ на се́рдце и҆́хъ,
17 “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things will not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 но ра́дость и҆ весе́лїе ѡ҆брѧ́щꙋтъ на не́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ сѐ, а҆́зъ творю̀ весе́лїе і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мꙋ и҆ лю́демъ мои̑мъ ра́дость.
18 But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight, and her people a joy.
19 И҆ возвеселю́сѧ ѡ҆ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ и҆ возра́дꙋюсѧ ѡ҆ лю́дехъ мои́хъ, и҆ ксемꙋ̀ не ᲂу҆слы́шитсѧ въ не́мъ гла́съ пла́ча, ни гла́съ во́плѧ,
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in my people; and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying will be heard in her no more.
20 нижѐ бꙋ́детъ та́мѡ младе́нецъ, ни ста́рецъ, и҆́же не и҆спо́лнитъ лѣ́тъ свои́хъ: бꙋ́детъ бо ю҆́ный ста̀ лѣ́тъ, ᲂу҆мира́ѧй же грѣ́шникъ ста̀ лѣ́тъ и҆ про́клѧтъ бꙋ́детъ.
20 “No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child will die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.
21 И҆ сози́ждꙋтъ до́мы и҆ са́ми вселѧ́тсѧ, и҆ насадѧ́тъ вїногра́ды и҆ са́ми снѣдѧ́тъ плоды̀ и҆́хъ.
21 They will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 Не сози́ждꙋтъ, да и҆ні́и вселѧ́тсѧ, и҆ не насадѧ́тъ, да и҆ні́и снѣдѧ́тъ: ꙗ҆́коже бо дні́е дре́ва жи́зни, бꙋ́дꙋтъ дні́е люді́й мои́хъ: дѣла́ бо трꙋдѡ́въ и҆́хъ ѡ҆бетша́ютъ.
22 They will not build and another inhabit. They will not plant and another eat; for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my chosen will long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 И҆збра́ннїи же моѝ не и҆́мꙋтъ трꙋди́тисѧ вотщѐ, нижѐ породѧ́тъ ча̑дъ на проклѧ́тїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ сѣ́мѧ блгⷭ҇ве́но є҆́сть бг҃омъ, и҆ внꙋ́цы и҆́хъ съ ни́ми бꙋ́дꙋтъ.
23 They will not labor in vain nor give birth for calamity; for they are the offspring of Yahweh’s blessed and their descendants with them.
24 И҆ бꙋ́детъ, пре́жде не́же воззва́ти и҆̀мъ, а҆́зъ ᲂу҆слы́шꙋ и҆̀хъ, є҆щѐ глаго́лющымъ и҆̀мъ, рекꙋ̀: что́ є҆сть;
24 It will happen that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 Тогда̀ во́лцы и҆ а҆́гнцы и҆́мꙋтъ пасти́сѧ вкꙋ́пѣ, и҆ ле́въ ꙗ҆́кѡ во́лъ снѣ́сть плє́вы, и҆ ѕмїѧ̀ зе́млю ꙗ҆́кѡ хлѣ́бъ: не повредѧ́тъ, нижѐ погꙋбѧ́тъ на горѣ̀ ст҃ѣ́й мое́й, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together. The lion will eat straw like the ox. Dust will be the serpent’s food. They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,” says 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 when the Spirit of prophecy speaks from the person of Christ, the utterances are of this sort: "I have spread out My hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people, to those who walk in a way that is not good." And again: "I gave My back to the scourges, and My cheeks to the buffetings; I turned not away …
… glory of God." And when these things are done, he says, "God will remove men far away, and those that are left shall multiply in the earth." "And they shall build houses, and shall inhabit them themselves: and plant vineyards, and eat of them themselves." For all these and other words were unquestionably spoken in reference to the resurrection of …
And I will exult in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her;" and other promises, which some endeavor to refer to carnal enjoyment during the thousand years.

The prophet made this point safe beforehand, saying, But upon My servants shall a new name be called, which shall be blessed upon the earth.

I spread out My hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people, to those who walked in a way that is not good, but follow after their own sins; a people that provoketh Me to anger to My face." For the Jews having the prophecies, and being always in expectation of the Christ to come, did not recognise Him; and not …
