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 И҆ сїѧ̑ словеса̀ кни́ги, ю҆́же посла̀ і҆еремі́а и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма ко старѣ́йшинамъ преселє́нымъ и҆ ко жерцє́мъ и҆ лжи̑вымъ проро́кѡмъ и҆ всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ, и҆̀хже преселѝ навꙋходоно́соръ и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма до вавѷлѡ́на,
1 Y ESTAS son las palabras de la carta que Jeremías profeta envió de Jerusalem á los ancianos que habían quedado de los trasportados, y á los sacerdotes y profetas, y á todo el pueblo que Nabucodonosor llevó cautivo de Jerusalem á Babilonia:
1 Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon,
2 послѣдѝ и҆зше́дшꙋ і҆ехоні́и царю̀ и҆ цари́цѣ, и҆ ка́женикѡмъ и҆ всѧ́комꙋ свобо́днꙋ, и҆ хꙋдо́жникꙋ и҆ ю҆́зникꙋ и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма,
2 (Después que salió el rey Jechônías y la reina, y los de palacio, y los príncipes de Judá y de Jerusalem, y los artífices, y los ingenieros de Jerusalem;)
2 (after Jeconiah the king, the queen mother, the eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the smiths had departed from Jerusalem),
3 рꙋко́ю є҆леа́са сы́на сафа́нѧ и҆ гамарі́а сы́на хелкі́ина, є҆го́же посла̀ седекі́а ца́рь і҆ꙋ́динъ ко царю̀ вавѷлѡ́нскꙋ въ вавѷлѡ́нъ, глаго́лѧ:
3 Por mano de Elasa hijo de Saphán, y de Jemarías hijo de Hilcías, (los cuales envió Sedechîas rey de Judá á Babilonia, á Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia,) diciendo:
3 by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon). It said:
4 та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ ѡ҆ преселе́ныхъ, и҆̀хже преселѝ и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма въ вавѷлѡ́нъ:
4 Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, á todos los de la cautividad que hice trasportar de Jerusalem á Babilonia:
4 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says to all the captives whom I have caused to be carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon:
5 согради́те хра̑мины и҆ всели́тесѧ, и҆ насади́те вертогра́ды и҆ ꙗ҆ди́те плоды̀ и҆́хъ,
5 Edificad casas, y morad; y plantad huertos, y comed del fruto de ellos;
5 “Build houses and dwell in them. Plant gardens and eat their fruit.
6 и҆ поими́те жєны̀ и҆ чадотвори́те сы́ны и҆ дщє́ри, и҆ приведи́те сынѡ́мъ ва́шымъ жєны̀ и҆ дщє́ри ва́шѧ дади́те за мꙋ́жы, и҆ да ражда́ютъ сы́ны и҆ дщє́ри, и҆ ᲂу҆множа́йтесѧ, а҆ не ᲂу҆малѧ́йтесѧ:
6 Casaos, y engendrad hijos é hijas; dad mujeres á vuestros hijos, y dad maridos á vuestras hijas, para que paran hijos é hijas; y multiplicaos ahí, y no os hagáis pocos.
6 Take wives and father sons and daughters. Take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters. Multiply there, and don’t be diminished.
7 и҆ взыщи́те ми́ра землѝ, на ню́же пресели́хъ ва́съ та́мѡ, и҆ моли́те гдⷭ҇а за нѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ ми́рѣ и҆́хъ бꙋ́детъ ми́ръ ва́мъ.
7 Y procurad la paz de la ciudad á la cual os hice traspasar, y rogad por ella á Jehová; porque en su paz tendréis vosotros paz.
7 Seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray to Yahweh for it; for in its peace you will have peace.”
8 Ꙗ҆́кѡ та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ, бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: да не препира́ютъ ва́съ лжи́вїи проро́цы, и҆̀же въ ва́съ, и҆ да не препира́ютъ ва́съ волсвѝ ва́ши, и҆ не послꙋ́шайте со́нїй свои́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же вы̀ ви́дите во снѣ̀,
8 Porque así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel: No os engañen vuestros profetas que están entre vosotros, ni vuestros adivinos; ni miréis á vuestros sueños que soñáis.
8 For Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Don’t let your prophets who are among you and your diviners deceive you. Don’t listen to your dreams which you cause to be dreamed.
9 ꙗ҆́кѡ непра́веднѣ ті́и прорица́ютъ ва́мъ во и҆́мѧ моѐ, а҆ не посла́хъ и҆́хъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
9 Porque falsamente os profetizan ellos en mi nombre: no los envié, ha dicho Jehová.
9 For they prophesy falsely to you in my name. I have not sent them,” says Yahweh.
10 Ꙗ҆́кѡ та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: є҆гда̀ и҆спо́лнѧтсѧ въ вавѷлѡ́нѣ се́дмьдесѧтъ лѣ́тъ, посѣщꙋ̀ ва́съ и҆ ᲂу҆ста́влю словеса̀ моѧ̑ на ва́съ, є҆́же возврати́ти лю́ди моѧ̑ на мѣ́сто сїѐ:
10 Porque así dijo Jehová: Cuando en Babilonia se cumplieren los setenta años, yo os visitaré, y despertaré sobre vosotros mi buena palabra, para tornaros á este lugar.
10 For Yahweh says, “After seventy years are accomplished for Babylon, I will visit you and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
11 и҆ помы́шлю на вы̀ помышле́нїе ми́ра, а҆ не ѕла̑ѧ, є҆́же да́ти ва́мъ сїѧ̑:
11 Porque yo sé los pensamientos que tengo acerca de vosotros, dice Jehová, pensamientos de paz, y no de mal, para daros el fin que esperáis.
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says Yahweh, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.
12 и҆ помо́литесѧ ко мнѣ̀, и҆ послꙋ́шаю ва́съ,
12 Entonces me invocaréis, é iréis y oraréis á mí, y yo os oiré:
12 You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
13 и҆ взы́щете менѐ, и҆ ѡ҆брѧ́щете мѧ̀: и҆ є҆гда̀ взы́щете менѐ всѣ́мъ се́рдцемъ ва́шимъ,
13 Y me buscaréis y hallaréis, porque me buscaréis de todo vuestro corazón.
13 You shall seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart.
14 и҆ ꙗ҆влю́сѧ ва́мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ возвращꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́зники ва́шѧ и҆ соберꙋ̀ ва́съ ѿ всѣ́хъ стра́нъ и҆ ѿ всѣ́хъ градѡ́въ, въ нѧ́же и҆згна́хъ ва́съ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: и҆ возврати́тисѧ повелю̀ ва́мъ на мѣ́сто, ѿкꙋ́дꙋ превестѝ ва́съ повелѣ́хъ.
14 Y seré hallado de vosotros, dice Jehová, y tornaré vuestra cautividad, y os juntaré de todas las gentes, y de todos los lugares adonde os arrojé, dice Jehová; y os haré volver al lugar de donde os hice ser llevados.
14 I will be found by you,” says Yahweh, “and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you,” says Yahweh. “I will bring you again to the place from where I caused you to be carried away captive.”
15 Поне́же реко́сте: возста́ви на́мъ гдⷭ҇ь проро́ки въ вавѷлѡ́нѣ.
15 Mas habéis dicho: Jehová nos ha suscitado profetas en Babilonia.
15 Because you have said, “Yahweh has raised us up prophets in Babylon,”
16 Та́кѡ бо речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко царю̀ сѣдѧ́щꙋ на престо́лѣ даві́довѣ и҆ ко всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ живꙋ́щымъ во гра́дѣ то́мъ, и҆ бра́тїѧмъ ва́шымъ, не и҆зше́дшымъ съ ва́ми въ плѣ́нъ,
16 Así empero ha dicho Jehová, del rey que está sentado sobre el trono de David, y de todo el pueblo que mora en esta ciudad, de vuestros hermanos que no salieron con vosotros en cautiverio;
16 Yahweh says concerning the king who sits on David’s throne, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your brothers who haven’t gone with you into captivity,
17 та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель: сѐ, а҆́зъ послю̀ на нѧ̀ ме́чь и҆ гла́дъ и҆ мо́ръ, и҆ положꙋ̀ ѧ҆̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ смѡ́квы хꙋды̑ѧ, и҆̀хже немо́щно ꙗ҆́сти, поне́же ѕѣлѡ̀ хꙋ́ды бы́ша:
17 Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: He aquí envío yo contra ellos cuchillo, hambre, y pestilencia, y pondrélos como los malos higos, que de malos no se pueden comer.
17 Yahweh of Armies says: “Behold, I will send on them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like rotten figs that can’t be eaten, they are so bad.
18 и҆ сотрꙋ̀ ѧ҆̀ мече́мъ и҆ гла́домъ и҆ мо́ромъ, и҆ да́мъ ѧ҆̀ въ погꙋбле́нїе всѣ̑мъ ца́рствамъ зємны́мъ и҆ въ проклѧ́тїе, и҆ во ᲂу҆дивле́нїе и҆ въ посмѣ́хъ и҆ въ порꙋга́нїе всѣ̑мъ ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ, къ ни̑мже и҆зверго́хъ ѧ҆̀:
18 Y perseguirélos con espada, con hambre y con pestilencia; y darélos por escarnio á todos los reinos de la tierra, por maldición y por espanto, y por silbo y por afrenta á todas la gentes á las cuales los habré arrojado;
18 I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, to be an object of horror, an astonishment, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven them,
19 зане́же не послꙋ́шаша слове́съ мои́хъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭь, ꙗ҆̀же посла́хъ къ ни̑мъ рабы̑ мои́ми прⷪ҇рѡ́ки, ра́нѡ востаѧ̀ и҆ посыла́ѧ, и҆ не послꙋ́шасте, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
19 Porque no oyeron mis palabras, dice Jehová, que les envié por mis siervos los profetas, madrugando en enviarlos; y no habéis escuchado, dice Jehová.
19 because they have not listened to my words,” says Yahweh, “with which I sent to them my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but you would not hear,” says Yahweh.
20 Вы̀ ᲂу҆̀бо слы́шите сло́во гдⷭ҇не, всѐ преселе́нїе, є҆́же вы́слахъ и҆з̾ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма въ вавѷлѡ́нъ.
20 Oid pues palabra de Jehová, vosotros todos los trasportados que eché de Jerusalem á Babilonia.
20 Hear therefore Yahweh’s word, all you captives whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
21 Та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ на а҆хїа́ва сы́на кѡлі́ева и҆ на седекі́ю сы́на маасі́ева, и҆̀же прорица́ютъ ва́мъ во и҆́мѧ моѐ лжи́вѡ: сѐ, а҆́зъ предаю̀ ѧ҆̀ въ рꙋ́цѣ навꙋходоно́сора царѧ̀ вавѷлѡ́нска, и҆ побїе́тъ ѧ҆̀ пред̾ ѻ҆чи́ма ва́шима:
21 Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, acerca de Achâb hijo de Colías, y acerca de Sedechîas hijo de Maasías, quienes os profetizan en mi nombre falsamente: He aquí los entrego yo en mano de Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, y él los herirá delante de vuestro ojos;
21 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie to you in my name: “Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he will kill them before your eyes.
22 и҆ во́зметсѧ ѿ ни́хъ проклѧ́тїе всемꙋ̀ преселе́нїю і҆ꙋ́динꙋ, є҆́же въ вавѷлѡ́нѣ, глаго́люще: да сотвори́тъ тѝ гдⷭ҇ь ꙗ҆́коже седекі́и сотворѝ и҆ ꙗ҆́коже а҆хїа́вꙋ, и҆̀хже сожжѐ ца́рь вавѷлѡ́нскїй во ѻ҆гнѝ,
22 Y todos los trasportados de Judá que están en Babilonia, tomarán de ellos maldición, diciendo: Póngate Jehová como á Sedechîas y como á Achâb, los cuales asó al fuego el rey de Babilonia.
22 A curse will be taken up about them by all the captives of Judah who are in Babylon, saying, ‘Yahweh make you like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;’
23 беззако́нїѧ ра́ди, є҆́же сотвори́ша во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, и҆ любодѣ́ѧхꙋ съ жена́ми гра́жданъ свои́хъ и҆ сло́во глаго́лаша во и҆́мѧ моѐ лжи́во, є҆гѡ́же не повелѣ́хъ и҆̀мъ, а҆́зъ же є҆́смь сꙋдїѧ̀ и҆ по́слꙋхъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
23 Porque hicieron maldad en Israel, y cometieron adulterio con las mujeres de sus prójimos, y falsamente hablaron en mi nombre palabra que no les mandé; lo cual yo sé, y soy testigo, dice Jehová.
23 because they have done foolish things in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors’ wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I didn’t command them. I am he who knows, and am witness,” says Yahweh.
24 И҆ къ саме́и є҆ламі́тинꙋ рече́ши:
24 Y á Semaías de Nehelam hablarás, diciendo:
24 Concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite you shall speak, saying,
25 та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель, бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: поне́же посла́лъ є҆сѝ во и҆́мѧ твоѐ посла̑нїѧ ко всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ, и҆̀же во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, и҆ ко софо́нїи сы́нꙋ маасе́овꙋ жерцꙋ̀ и҆ ко всѣ̑мъ жерцє́мъ, глаго́лѧ:
25 Así habló Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, diciendo: Por cuanto enviaste letras en tu nombre á todo el pueblo que está en Jerusalem, y á Sophonías sacerdote hijo de Maasías, y á todos los sacerdotes, diciendo:
25 “Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘Because you have sent letters in your own name to all the people who are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
26 гдⷭ҇ь даде́ тѧ жерца̀ вмѣ́стѡ і҆ѡда́а жерца̀, бы́ти приста́вникꙋ въ домꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇ни, всѧ́комꙋ человѣ́кꙋ прорица́ющꙋ и҆ всѧ́комꙋ человѣ́кꙋ неи́стовꙋющꙋ, и҆ вда́си є҆го̀ въ затво́ръ и҆ въ кла́дꙋ.
26 Jehová te ha puesto por sacerdote en lugar de Joiada sacerdote, para que presidáis en la casa de Jehová sobre todo hombre furioso y profetizante, poniéndolo en el calabozo y en el cepo.
26 “Yahweh has made you priest in the place of Jehoiada the priest, that there may be officers in Yahweh’s house, for every man who is crazy and makes himself a prophet, that you should put him in the stocks and in shackles.
27 И҆ нн҃ѣ почто̀ не запрети́сте і҆еремі́и, и҆́же ѿ а҆наѳѡ́ѳа, прорица́ющемꙋ ва́мъ;
27 ¿Por qué pues no has ahora reprendido á Jeremías de Anathoth, que os profetiza [falsamente]?
27 Now therefore, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who makes himself a prophet to you,
28 Ꙗ҆́кѡ тогѡ̀ ра́ди посла̀ къ на́мъ въ вавѷлѡ́нъ, глаго́лѧ: до́лгое є҆́сть вре́мѧ, согради́те хра̑мины и҆ всели́тесѧ, и҆ насади́те вертогра́ды и҆ ꙗ҆ди́те плоды̀ и҆́хъ.
28 Porque por eso nos envió á decir en Babilonia: Largo va [el cautiverio]: edificad casas, y morad; plantad huertos, y comed el fruto de ellos.
28 because he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, The captivity is long. Build houses, and dwell in them. Plant gardens, and eat their fruit?”’”
29 И҆ прочтѐ кни́гꙋ сїю̀ софо́нїа во ᲂу҆́шы і҆еремі́и прⷪ҇ро́ка.
29 Y Sophonías sacerdote había leído esta carta á oídos de Jeremías profeta.
29 Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the hearing of Jeremiah the prophet.
30 И҆ бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко і҆еремі́и гл҃ѧ:
30 Y fué palabra de Jehová á Jeremías, diciendo:
30 Then Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
31 послѝ ко пресе́льникѡмъ глаго́лѧ: та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь на саме́ю є҆ламі́тина: поне́же проречѐ ва́мъ саме́а, а҆́зъ же не посла́хъ є҆го̀, и҆ сотворѝ ва́съ ᲂу҆пова́ти на непра́вдꙋ:
31 Envía á decir á toda la transmigración: Así ha dicho Jehová de Semaías de Nehelam: Porque os profetizó Semaías, y yo no lo envié, y os hizo confiar en mentira:
31 “Send to all of the captives, saying, ‘Yahweh says concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: “Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I didn’t send him, and he has caused you to trust in a lie,”
32 тогѡ̀ ра́ди си́це речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, а҆́зъ посѣщꙋ̀ на саме́ю и҆ на ро́дъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не бꙋ́детъ є҆мꙋ̀ человѣ́ка посредѣ̀ ва́съ, є҆́же ви́дѣти блага̑ѧ, ꙗ҆̀же а҆́зъ сотворю̀ ва́мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, занѐ ѿстꙋпле́нїе глаго́ла на гдⷭ҇а.
32 Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí que yo visito sobre Semaías de Nehelam, y sobre su generación: no tendrá varón que more entre este pueblo, ni verá aquel bien que haré yo á mi pueblo, dice Jehová: porque contra Jehová ha hablado rebelión.
32 therefore Yahweh says, “Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his offspring. He will not have a man to dwell among this people. He won’t see the good that I will do to my people,” says Yahweh, “because he has spoken rebellion against Yahweh.”’”

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).
… when predicting the captivity that was to befall the ancient people of God, and giving them the divine command to go obediently to Babylonia, and thus serve their God, counselled them also to pray for Babylonia, saying, "In the peace thereof shall ye have peace," --the temporal peace which the good and the wicked together enjoy.
