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 Сло́во, є҆́же бы́сть ко і҆еремі́и на всѧ̑ лю́ди і҆ꙋ̑дины, въ лѣ́то четве́ртое і҆ѡакі́ма сы́на і҆ѡсі́ина, царѧ̀ і҆ꙋ́дина: то̀ лѣ́то пе́рвое навꙋходоно́сора царѧ̀ вавѷлѡ́нскагѡ:
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
2 є҆́же глаго́ла і҆еремі́а прⷪ҇ро́къ ко всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ і҆ꙋ̑динымъ и҆ ко всѣ̑мъ ѡ҆бита́телємъ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма, рекі́й:
2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
3 въ третїена́десѧть лѣ́то і҆ѡсі́и сы́на а҆мѡ́сова, царѧ̀ і҆ꙋ́дина, и҆ да́же до днѐ сегѡ̀, сїѐ два́десѧть тре́тїе лѣ́то, бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко мнѣ̀, и҆ глаго́лахъ къ ва́мъ, заꙋ́тра востаѧ̀ и҆ глаго́лѧ: и҆ не слы́шасте.
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, Yahweh’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened.
4 И҆ посыла́ше гдⷭь къ ва́мъ всѣ́хъ ра̑бъ свои́хъ прⷪ҇рѡ́къ, востаѧ̀ заꙋ́тра и҆ посыла́ѧ: и҆ не слы́шасте, ни приклони́сте ᲂу҆ше́съ ва́шихъ, да слы́шите, є҆гда̀ гл҃аше:
4 Yahweh has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear),
5 ѿврати́тесѧ кі́йждо ѿ пꙋтѝ своегѡ̀ ѕла́гѡ и҆ ѿ ѕлѣ́йшихъ ᲂу҆мышле́нїй ва́шихъ, и҆ ѡ҆бита́ти бꙋ́дете въ землѝ, ю҆́же гдⷭ҇ь дадѐ ва́мъ и҆ ѻ҆тцє́мъ ва́шымъ, ѿ вѣ́ка да́же и҆ до вѣ́ка:
5 saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that Yahweh has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
6 и҆ не ходи́те в̾слѣ́дъ богѡ́въ чꙋжди́хъ, є҆́же слꙋжи́ти и҆̀мъ и҆ покланѧ́тисѧ и҆̀мъ, да не прогнѣ́ваете мѧ̀ въ дѣ́лѣхъ рꙋ́къ ва́шихъ, є҆́же ѡ҆ѕло́бити ва́съ.
6 Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
7 И҆ не послꙋ́шасте мѧ̀, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, є҆́же не подвиза́ти мѧ̀ ко гнѣ́вꙋ въ дѣ́лѣхъ рꙋкꙋ̀ ва́шєю на ѕло̀ ва́мъ.
7 “Yet you have not listened to me,” says Yahweh, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
8 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ: поне́же не послꙋ́шасте слове́съ мои́хъ,
8 Therefore Yahweh of Armies says: “Because you have not heard my words,
9 сѐ, а҆́зъ послю̀ и҆ возмꙋ̀ всѧ̑ племена̀ сѣ̑верска, (речѐ гдⷭ҇ь,) и҆ навꙋходоно́сора царѧ̀ вавѷлѡ́нска раба̀ моего̀: и҆ приведꙋ̀ и҆̀хъ на зе́млю сїю̀ и҆ на ѡ҆бита́тєли є҆ѧ̀ и҆ на всѧ̑ ꙗ҆зы́ки, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ є҆ѧ̀, и҆ ᲂу҆бїю̀ и҆̀хъ и҆ поста́влю и҆̀хъ во ᲂу҆́жасъ и҆ во звизда́нїе и҆ въ поноше́нїе вѣ́чное:
9 behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says Yahweh, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
10 и҆ погꙋблю̀ ѿ ни́хъ гла́съ ра́дости и҆ гла́съ весе́лїѧ, гла́съ жениха̀ и҆ гла́съ невѣ́сты, благоꙋха́нїе мѵ́ра и҆ свѣ́тъ свѣти́льника:
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
11 и҆ бꙋ́детъ всѧ̀ землѧ̀ сїѧ̀ въ запꙋстѣ́нїе и҆ во ᲂу҆́жасъ, и҆ порабо́таютъ сі́и во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ царю̀ вавѷлѡ́нскꙋ се́дмьдесѧтъ лѣ́тъ.
11 This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
12 Є҆гда́ же и҆спо́лнени бꙋ́дꙋтъ се́дмьдесѧтъ лѣ́тъ, посѣщꙋ̀ на царѧ̀ вавѷлѡ́нска и҆ на ꙗ҆зы́къ ѻ҆́ный, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, беззакѡ́нїѧ и҆́хъ, и҆ на зе́млю халде́йскꙋ, и҆ положꙋ̀ тꙋ́ю въ запꙋстѣ́нїе вѣ́чное,
12 “It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says Yahweh, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Chaldeans desolate forever.
13◆ и҆ наведꙋ̀ на зе́млю ѻ҆́нꙋ всѧ̑ словеса̀ моѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же гл҃ахъ на ню̀, всѧ̑ пи̑саннаѧ въ кни́зѣ се́й, и҆ є҆ли̑ка прⷪ҇ро́чествова і҆еремі́а на всѧ̑ ꙗ҆зы́ки:
13 I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
14 ꙗ҆́кѡ рабо́таша и҆̀мъ, є҆гда̀ бѣ́ша ꙗ҆зы́цы мно́зи и҆ ца́рїе вели́цы, и҆ возда́мъ и҆̀мъ по дѣлѡ́мъ и҆́хъ и҆ по творе́нїю рꙋ́къ и҆́хъ,
14 For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.”
15 є҆ли́кѡ проречѐ і҆еремі́а до всѣ́хъ стра́нъ: та́кѡ бо гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: возмѝ ча́шꙋ вїна̀ нерастворе́ннагѡ ѿ рꙋкѝ моеѧ̀, да напои́ши всѧ̑ ꙗ҆зы́ки, къ ни̑мже а҆́зъ послю́ тѧ.
15 For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.
16 И҆ и҆спїю́тъ и҆ и҆зблю́ютъ, и҆ ѡ҆бꙋѧ́ютъ ѿ лица̀ меча̀, є҆го́же а҆́зъ послю̀ средѣ̀ и҆́хъ.
16 They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
17 И҆ взѧ́хъ ча́шꙋ ѿ рꙋкѝ гдⷭ҇ни и҆ напои́хъ всѧ̑ ꙗ҆зы́ки, къ ни̑мже посла́ мѧ гдⷭ҇ь:
17 Then I took the cup at Yahweh’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Yahweh had sent me:
18 і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма и҆ гра́ды і҆ꙋ̑дины, и҆ цари̑ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ кнѧ̑зи є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ положи́ти ѧ҆̀ во ѡ҆пꙋстѣ́нїе и҆ въ непрохожде́нїе, и҆ во звизда́нїе и҆ въ проклѧ́тїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ де́нь се́й,
18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
19 и҆ фараѡ́на царѧ̀ є҆гѵ́петскаго и҆ ѻ҆трокѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ вельмо́жы є҆гѡ̀ и҆ всѧ̑ лю́ди є҆гѡ̀
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;
20 и҆ всѧ̑ примѣ́сники є҆гѡ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ землѝ ᲂу҆́съ и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ и҆ноплеме́нникѡвъ, а҆скалѡ́на и҆ га́зꙋ, и҆ а҆ккарѡ́на и҆ ѡ҆ста́нокъ а҆зѡ́та,
20 and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21 и҆ і҆дꙋме́ю и҆ мѡаві́тїдꙋ и҆ сы́ны а҆ммѡ̑ни,
21 Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon;
22 и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ тѵ̑рски и҆ цари̑ сїдѡ̑нски и҆ цари̑, и҆̀же ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ мо́рѧ,
22 and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
23 и҆ деда́на и҆ ѳема́на, и҆ рѡ́са и҆ всѧ́каго ѡ҆стри́женаго по лицꙋ̀ є҆гѡ̀,
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
24 и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ а҆раві́и и҆ всѧ̑ смѣ́сники ѡ҆бита́ющыѧ въ пꙋсты́ни,
24 and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
25 и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ замврі̑йскїѧ и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ є҆ла̑мскїѧ, и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ пє́рсскїѧ
25 and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
26 и҆ всѧ̑ цари̑ ѿ восто́чїѧ, да̑льнїѧ и҆ бли̑жнїѧ, коего́ждо ко бра́тꙋ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ ца̑рства, ꙗ҆̀же на лицы̀ землѝ, и҆ ца́рь сеса́хъ и҆спїе́тъ послѣдѝ и҆́хъ.
26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them.
27 И҆ рече́ши и҆̀мъ: та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ, бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: пі́йте и҆ ᲂу҆пі́йтесѧ, и҆ и҆зблю́йте и҆ пади́те, и҆ не воста́ните ѿ лица̀ меча̀, є҆го́же а҆́зъ послю̀ средѣ̀ ва́съ.
27 “You shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’
28 И҆ бꙋ́детъ, є҆гда̀ не восхотѧ́тъ прїѧ́ти ча́ши ѿ рꙋкѝ твоеѧ̀, є҆́же пи́ти, рече́ши къ ни̑мъ: та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: пїю́ще пі́йте.
28 It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “You shall surely drink.
29 Ꙗ҆́кѡ во гра́дѣ, въ не́мже и҆менова́сѧ и҆́мѧ моѐ, а҆́зъ начнꙋ̀ ѡ҆ѕлоблѧ́ти, и҆ вы̀ ѡ҆чище́нїемъ не ѡ҆чи́ститесѧ: поне́же ме́чь а҆́зъ призыва́ю на всѧ̑ сѣдѧ́щыѧ на землѝ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ.
29 For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says Yahweh of Armies.”’
30 Ты́ же прорече́ши на ни́хъ всѧ̑ словеса̀ сїѧ̑ и҆ рече́ши: гдⷭ҇ь съ высоты̀ сꙋ́дъ возда́стъ, ѿ ст҃а́гѡ своегѡ̀ да́стъ гла́съ сво́й, сло́во прорече́тъ на мѣ́сто своѐ, сі́и же ꙗ҆́кѡ ѡ҆б̾е́млюще вїногра́дъ ѿвѣща́ютъ: и҆ на всѧ̑ сѣдѧ́щыѧ на землѝ прїи́де па́гꙋба,
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘Yahweh will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 на ча́сть землѝ, ꙗ҆́кѡ сꙋ́дъ во ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ гдⷭ҇ꙋ: сꙋди́тисѧ и҆́мать то́й со всѧ́кою пло́тїю, нечести́вїи же пре́дани бы́ша мечꙋ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
31 A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for Yahweh has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says Yahweh.”
32 Та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, ѕла̑ѧ грѧдꙋ́тъ ѿ ꙗ҆зы́ка на ꙗ҆зы́къ, и҆ ви́хорь вели́къ и҆схо́дитъ ѿ конца̀ землѝ.
32 Yahweh of Armies says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
33 И҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ ꙗ҆́звенїи ѿ гдⷭ҇а въ де́нь гдⷭ҇ень, ѿ кра́ѧ землѝ и҆ до кра́ѧ землѝ: не ѡ҆пла́чꙋтсѧ, нижѐ соберꙋ́тсѧ и҆ не погребꙋ́тсѧ, въ гноѝ на лицы̀ землѝ бꙋ́дꙋтъ.
33 The slain of Yahweh will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
34 Воскли́кните, пастꙋсѝ, и҆ возопі́йте, и҆ воспла́чите, ѻ҆внѝ ѻ҆́вчїи, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆спо́лнишасѧ дні́е ва́ши на заколе́нїе, и҆ паде́те ꙗ҆́коже ѻ҆внѝ и҆збра́ннїи,
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
35 и҆ и҆зги́бнетъ бѣ́гство ѿ пастꙋхѡ́въ и҆ спасе́нїе ѿ ѻ҆внѡ́въ ѻ҆́вчихъ.
35 The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
36 Гла́съ во́плѧ па́стырска и҆ кли́чь ѻ҆ве́цъ и҆ ѻ҆внѡ́въ, ꙗ҆́кѡ потребѝ гдⷭ҇ь па̑жити и҆́хъ:
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for Yahweh destroys their pasture.
37 и҆ ᲂу҆мо́лкнꙋтъ ѡ҆ста́нцы ми́ра ѿ лица̀ ꙗ҆́рости гнѣ́ва гдⷭ҇нѧ.
37 The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of Yahweh.
38 Ѡ҆ста́ви ꙗ҆́коже ле́въ вита́лище своѐ, ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́сть землѧ̀ и҆́хъ въ непрохожде́нїе ѿ лица̀ меча̀ вели́кагѡ.
38 He has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.

Why does my Bible say something different?
- Jeremiah: a shorter book in a different order
The Greek Septuagint of Jeremiah is markedly shorter than the Hebrew text and arranges the book differently: the oracles against the nations come in the middle, after 25:13, not at the end. Hebrew fragments from Qumran show that a shorter Hebrew form of Jeremiah really existed. Many scholars think Jeremiah circulated in two editions.
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).
… mouth." And their force is exactly the same, either when multiplied by ten, as seventy and seven hundred (whence the seventy years mentioned in Jeremiah may be taken in a spiritual sense for the whole time during which the Church is a sojourner among aliens); or when multiplied into themselves, as ten into ten gives one hundred, and twelve into …
