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 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь ко мнѣ̀: и҆дѝ и҆ стѧжѝ себѣ̀ чре́сленикъ льнѧ́ный и҆ препоѧ́ши того̀ на чре́слѣхъ твои́хъ, и҆ въ во́дꙋ да не внесе́ши тогѡ̀.
1 Yahweh said to me, “Go, and buy yourself a linen belt, and put it on your waist, and don’t put it in water.”
2 И҆ стѧжа́хъ чре́сленикъ по словесѝ гдⷭ҇ню и҆ ѡ҆бложи́хъ ѡ҆́крестъ чре́слъ мои́хъ.
2 So I bought a belt according to Yahweh’s word, and put it on my waist.
3 И҆ бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко мнѣ̀ втори́цею, рекꙋ́щее:
3 Yahweh’s word came to me the second time, saying,
4 возмѝ чре́сленикъ, є҆го́же стѧжа́лъ є҆сѝ, и҆́же є҆́сть ѡ҆́крестъ чре́слъ твои́хъ, и҆ воста́ни и҆ и҆дѝ ко є҆ѵфра́тꙋ, и҆ скры́й того̀ та́мѡ во разсѣ́линѣ ка́меннѣ.
4 “Take the belt that you have bought, which is on your waist, and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.”
5 И҆ и҆до́хъ и҆ скры́хъ того̀ во є҆ѵфра́тѣ, ꙗ҆́коже заповѣ́да мнѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь.
5 So I went and hid it by the Euphrates, as Yahweh commanded me.
6 И҆ бы́сть по дне́хъ мно́зѣхъ, и҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко мнѣ̀: воста́ни и҆ и҆дѝ ко є҆ѵфра́тꙋ, и҆ возмѝ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ чре́сленикъ, є҆го́же заповѣ́дахъ тебѣ̀ скры́ти та́мѡ.
6 After many days, Yahweh said to me, “Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take the belt from there, which I commanded you to hide there.”
7 И҆ и҆до́хъ ко є҆ѵфра́тꙋ и҆ раскопа́хъ, и҆ взѧ́хъ чре́сленикъ ѿ мѣ́ста, и҆дѣ́же скры́хъ є҆го̀, и҆ сѐ, и҆згни́лъ бѣ̀ (чре́сленикъ), ꙗ҆́кѡ ни на что́же бы́ти потре́бнꙋ є҆мꙋ̀.
7 Then I went to the Euphrates, and dug, and took the belt from the place where I had hidden it; and behold, the belt was ruined. It was profitable for nothing.
8 И҆ бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко мнѣ̀, рекꙋ́щее: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь:
8 Then Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
9 та́кѡ согни́ти сотворю̀ горды́ню і҆ꙋ́динꙋ и҆ горды́ню і҆ерⷭ҇ли́млю, мно́гꙋю горды́ню сїю̀ люді́й си́хъ стропти́выхъ,
9 “Yahweh says, ‘In this way I will ruin the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
10 и҆̀же не хотѧ́тъ послꙋ́шати слове́съ мои́хъ, ходѧ́щихъ во стропти́вствѣ се́рдца своегѡ̀ и҆ ше́дшихъ в̾слѣ́дъ богѡ́въ чꙋжди́хъ, да слꙋ́жатъ и҆̀мъ и҆ да покланѧ́ютсѧ и҆̀мъ: и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ ꙗ҆́коже чре́сленикъ то́й, и҆́же ни къ чемꙋ̀ потре́бенъ.
10 This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and have gone after other gods to serve them and to worship them, will even be as this belt, which is profitable for nothing.
11 Занѐ, ꙗ҆́коже придержи́тсѧ чре́сленикъ ко чре́слѡмъ мꙋ́жа, та́кѡ прилѣпи́хъ мнѣ̀ (ве́сь) до́мъ і҆и҃левъ и҆ ве́сь до́мъ і҆ꙋ́динъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: да бꙋ́дꙋтъ мнѣ̀ въ лю́ди и҆мени̑ты, и҆ въ хвалꙋ̀ и҆ въ сла́вꙋ, и҆ не послꙋ́шаша менѐ.
11 For as the belt clings to the waist of a man, so I have caused the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah to cling to me,’ says Yahweh; ‘that they may be to me for a people, for a name, for praise, and for glory; but they would not hear.’
12 И҆ рече́ши къ лю́демъ си̑мъ словеса̀ сїѧ̑: та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: всѧ́къ мѣ́хъ и҆спо́лнитсѧ вїна̀. И҆ бꙋ́детъ, а҆́ще рекꙋ́тъ къ тебѣ̀: є҆да̀ вѣ́дѧще не ᲂу҆вѣ́мы, ꙗ҆́кѡ всѧ́къ мѣ́хъ и҆спо́лнитсѧ вїна̀;
12 “Therefore you shall speak to them this word: ‘Yahweh, the God of Israel says, “Every container should be filled with wine.”’ They will tell you, ‘Do we not certainly know that every container should be filled with wine?’
13 и҆ рече́ши къ ни̑мъ: сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, а҆́зъ и҆спо́лню всѣ́хъ ѡ҆бита́телей землѝ сеѧ̀, и҆ царе́й и҆́хъ сѣдѧ́щихъ ѿ колѣ́на даві́дова на престо́лѣ и҆́хъ, и҆ свѧще́нники и҆ проро́ки, и҆ і҆ꙋ́дꙋ и҆ всѣ́хъ ѡ҆бита́ющихъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ пїѧ́нствомъ,
13 Then tell them, ‘Yahweh says, “Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings who sit on David’s throne, the priests, the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
14 и҆ расточꙋ̀ и҆̀хъ, мꙋ́жа и҆ бра́та є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ѻ҆тцы̀ и҆́хъ и҆ сы́ны и҆́хъ вкꙋ́пѣ: не пожела́ю, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, не пощажꙋ̀, и҆ не ᲂу҆млⷭ҇рдюсѧ, є҆́же не погꙋби́ти и҆́хъ.
14 I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together,” says Yahweh: “I will not pity, spare, or have compassion, that I should not destroy them.”’”
15 Слы́шите и҆ внемли́те, и҆ не возноси́тесѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь гл҃алъ є҆́сть.
15 Hear, and give ear. Don’t be proud, for Yahweh has spoken.
16 Дади́те гдⷭ҇ꙋ бг҃ꙋ ва́шемꙋ сла́вꙋ пре́жде да́же не сме́ркнетсѧ и҆ пре́жде да́же не пре́ткнꙋтсѧ но́зѣ ва́ши ко гора́мъ тє́мнымъ: и҆ пождетѐ свѣ́та, и҆ та́мѡ сѣ́нь сме́ртнаѧ, и҆ положе́ни бꙋ́дꙋтъ во мра́къ.
16 Give glory to Yahweh your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it deep darkness.
17 А҆́ще же не послꙋ́шаете, въ та́йнѣ воспла́четсѧ дꙋша̀ ва́ша ѿ лица̀ горды́ни и҆ пла́чѧ воспла́четъ, и҆ и҆зведꙋ́тъ ѻ҆́чи ва́ши сле́зы, ꙗ҆́кѡ сотре́но є҆́сть ста́до гдⷭ҇не.
17 But if you will not hear it, my soul will weep in secret for your pride. My eye will weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because Yahweh’s flock has been taken captive.
18 Рцы́те царю̀ и҆ влады́камъ: смири́тесѧ, сѧ́дите, ꙗ҆́кѡ взѧ́тсѧ ѿ главы̀ ва́шеѧ вѣне́цъ сла́вы ва́шеѧ.
18 Say to the king and to the queen mother, “Humble yourselves. Sit down, for your crowns have come down, even the crown of your glory.
19 Гра́ды ю҆́жнїи затворе́ни сꙋ́ть, и҆ нѣ́сть ѿверза́ѧй: преведе́нъ є҆́сть ве́сь і҆ꙋ́да, соверши́ша преселе́нїе соверше́нное.
19 The cities of the South are shut up, and there is no one to open them. Judah is carried away captive: all of them. They are wholly carried away captive.
20 Воздви́гни ѻ҆́чи твоѝ, і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ме, и҆ ви́ждь приходѧ́щыѧ ѿ сѣ́вера: гдѣ̀ ста́до да́ное тебѣ̀, ѻ҆́вцы сла́вы твоеѧ̀;
20 Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north. Where is the flock that was given to you, your beautiful flock?
21 Что̀ рече́ши, є҆гда̀ посѣтѧ́тъ тѧ̀; и҆ ты̀ наꙋчи́лъ є҆сѝ и҆̀хъ на тѧ̀ ᲂу҆че́нїемъ въ нача́льство: є҆да̀ не ѡ҆б̾и́мꙋтъ тѧ̀ бѡлѣ́зни ꙗ҆́кѡ женꙋ̀ родѧ́щꙋю;
21 What will you say when he sets over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? Won’t sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?
22 А҆́ще же рече́ши въ се́рдцы твое́мъ: почто̀ прїидо́ша мѝ сїѧ̑; за мно́жество беззако́нїѧ твоегѡ̀ ѿкровє́на сꙋ́ть за̑днѧѧ твоѧ̑, да ѡ҆брꙋ̑ганы бꙋ́дꙋтъ стѡпы̀ твоѧ̑.
22 If you say in your heart, “Why have these things come on me?” Your skirts are uncovered because of the greatness of your iniquity, and your heels suffer violence.
23 А҆́ще премѣни́тъ є҆ѳїо́плѧнинъ ко́жꙋ свою̀, и҆ ры́сь пестрѡты̀ своѧ̑, и҆ вы̀ мо́жете благотвори́ти наꙋчи́вшесѧ ѕлꙋ̀.
23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
24 И҆ развѣ́ю и҆̀хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ сте́блїе носи́мое вѣ́тромъ въ пꙋсты́ню.
24 “Therefore I will scatter them as the stubble that passes away by the wind of the wilderness.
25 Се́й жре́бїй тво́й и҆ ча́сть непоко́рства твоегѡ̀ на мѧ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́кѡ забы́лъ є҆сѝ мѧ̀ и҆ надѣ́ѧлсѧ на лжꙋ̀:
25 This is your lot, the portion measured to you from me,” says Yahweh, “because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.”
26 тѣ́мже и҆ а҆́зъ ѡ҆бнажꙋ̀ бе́дры твоѧ̑ проти́вꙋ лица̀ твоегѡ̀, и҆ ꙗ҆ви́тсѧ срамота̀ твоѧ̀
26 Therefore I will also uncover your skirts on your face, and your shame will appear.
27 и҆ прелюбодѣ́йство твоѐ, и҆ ржа́нїе твоѐ и҆ ѿчꙋжде́нїе блꙋда̀ твоегѡ̀: на гора́хъ и҆ на се́лѣхъ ви́дѣхъ ме́рзѡсти твоѧ̑. Го́ре тебѣ̀, і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ме, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ѡ҆чи́стилсѧ є҆сѝ, послѣ́дꙋѧ мнѣ̀. Доко́лѣ є҆щѐ;
27 I have seen your abominations, even your adulteries and your neighing, the lewdness of your prostitution, on the hills in the field. Woe to you, Jerusalem! You will not be made clean. How long will it yet be?”

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).
For Jeremiah too calls the people "a girdle," and makes mention again of "bottles" and of "wine." Thus, the discourse being about gluttony and a table, He takes His illustrations from the same.
