1 Во вре́мѧ ѻ҆́но, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, бꙋ́дꙋ въ бг҃а ро́дꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ, и҆ ті́и бꙋ́дꙋтъ мѝ въ лю́ди.
1 “At that time,” says Yahweh, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
2 Та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: ѡ҆брѣто́хъ теплотꙋ̀ въ пꙋсты́ни со и҆зги́бшими ѿ меча̀: и҆ди́те и҆ не потреби́те і҆и҃лѧ,
2 Yahweh says, “The people who survive the sword found favor in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.”
3 гдⷭ҇ь и҆здале́ча ꙗ҆ви́тсѧ є҆мꙋ̀: любо́вїю вѣ́чною возлюби́хъ тѧ̀, тогѡ̀ ра́ди вовлеко́хъ тѧ̀ въ щедрѡ́ты.
3 Yahweh appeared of old to me, saying, “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore I have drawn you with loving kindness.
4 Ꙗ҆́кѡ возграждꙋ́ тѧ, и҆ возгради́шисѧ, дѣ́во і҆и҃лева: во́змеши тѷмпа́ны своѧ̑ и҆ и҆зы́деши съ собо́ромъ и҆гра́ющихъ.
4 I will build you again, and you will be built, O virgin of Israel. You will again be adorned with your tambourines, and will go out in the dances of those who make merry.
5 Є҆щѐ насади́те вїногра́ды въ горѣ̀ самарі́йстѣй, насажда́юще насади́те и҆ похвали́те.
5 Again you will plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and will enjoy its fruit.
6 Ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆́сть де́нь воззва́нїѧ ѿвѣщава́ющихъ въ гора́хъ є҆фре́мовыхъ: воста́ните и҆ взы́дите въ сїѡ́нъ ко гдⷭ҇еви бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ:
6 For there will be a day that the watchmen on the hills of Ephraim cry, ‘Arise! Let’s go up to Zion to Yahweh our God.’”
7 ꙗ҆́кѡ та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь і҆а́кѡвꙋ: возвесели́тесѧ весе́лїемъ и҆ воскли́кните на главꙋ̀ ꙗ҆зы́кѡвъ: слы́шано сотвори́те и҆ похвали́те, рцы́те: сп҃сѐ гдⷭ҇ь лю́ди своѧ̑, ѡ҆ста́нокъ і҆и҃левъ.
7 For Yahweh says, “Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the chief of the nations. Publish, praise, and say, ‘Yahweh, save your people, the remnant of Israel!’
8 Сѐ, а҆́зъ ведꙋ̀ и҆̀хъ ѿ сѣ́вера и҆ соберꙋ̀ и҆̀хъ ѿ конє́цъ землѝ въ пра́здникъ па́схи: и҆ чадороди́тъ наро́дъ мно́гъ, и҆ возвратѧ́тсѧ сѣ́мѡ.
8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, along with the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her who travails with child together. They will return as a great company.
9 Съ пла́чемъ и҆зыдо́ша, а҆ со ᲂу҆тѣше́нїемъ возведꙋ̀ ѧ҆̀, проводѧ̀ чрез̾ рове́нники во́дъ по пꙋтѝ пра́вꙋ, и҆ не заблꙋ́дѧтъ по немꙋ̀: ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́зъ бѣ́хъ і҆и҃леви во ѻ҆ц҃а̀, и҆ є҆фре́мъ пе́рвенецъ мѝ є҆́сть.
9 They will come with weeping. I will lead them with petitions. I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they won’t stumble; for I am a father to Israel. Ephraim is my firstborn.
10 Слы́шите, ꙗ҆зы́цы, сло́во гдⷭ҇не, и҆ возвѣсти́те во ѻ҆́стровѣхъ да́льнихъ и҆ рцы́те: развѣ́ѧвый і҆и҃лѧ собере́тъ є҆го̀ и҆ снабди́тъ є҆го̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ па́стырь ста́до своѐ.
10 “Hear Yahweh’s word, you nations, and declare it in the distant islands. Say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock.’
11 Ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆зба́ви гдⷭ҇ь і҆а́кѡва и҆ и҆з̾ѧ́тъ є҆го̀ ѿ рꙋкѝ си́льнѣйшихъ є҆гѡ̀.
11 For Yahweh has ransomed Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than he.
12 И҆ прїи́дꙋтъ и҆ возвеселѧ́тсѧ въ горѣ̀ сїѡ́нъ, и҆ прїи́дꙋтъ ко бл҃гота́мъ гдⷭ҇нимъ, на зе́млю пшени́цы и҆ вїна̀ и҆ плодѡ́въ, и҆ скотѡ́въ и҆ ѻ҆внѡ́въ: и҆ бꙋ́детъ дꙋша̀ и҆́хъ ꙗ҆́коже дре́во плодови́то, и҆ не вза́лчꙋтъ ктомꙋ̀.
12 They will come and sing in the height of Zion, and will flow to the goodness of Yahweh, to the grain, to the new wine, to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd. Their soul will be as a watered garden. They will not sorrow any more at all.
13 Тогда̀ возра́дꙋютсѧ дѣви̑цы въ собра́нїи ю҆́ношей, и҆ ста́рцы возра́дꙋютсѧ: и҆ ѡ҆бращꙋ̀ пла́чь и҆́хъ на ра́дость, и҆ ᲂу҆тѣ́шꙋ и҆̀хъ, и҆ сотворю̀ и҆̀хъ ве́селы.
13 Then the virgin will rejoice in the dance, the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
14 Возвели́чꙋ и҆ ᲂу҆пою̀ дꙋ́шꙋ жерцє́въ сынѡ́въ леѵі́иныхъ, и҆ лю́дїе моѝ бл҃го́тъ мои́хъ насы́тѧтсѧ.
14 I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people will be satisfied with my goodness,” says Yahweh.
15 Та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: гла́съ въ ра́мѣ слы́шанъ бы́сть пла́ча и҆ рыда́нїѧ и҆ во́плѧ: рахи́ль пла́чꙋщисѧ ча̑дъ свои́хъ, и҆ не хотѧ́ше ᲂу҆тѣ́шитисѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не сꙋ́ть.
15 Yahweh says: “A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children. She refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more.”
16 Та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: да почі́етъ гла́съ тво́й ѿ пла́ча и҆ ѻ҆́чи твоѝ ѿ сле́зъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆́сть мзда̀ дѣлѡ́мъ твои̑мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ возвратѧ́тсѧ ѿ землѝ вра́жїѧ:
16 Yahweh says: “Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” says Yahweh. “They will come again from the land of the enemy.
17 и҆ є҆́сть наде́жда послѣ̑днимъ твои̑мъ, (гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь,) и҆ возвратѧ́тсѧ сы́нове твоѝ въ предѣ́лы своѧ̑.
17 There is hope for your latter end,” says Yahweh. “Your children will come again to their own territory.
18 Слы́шѧ слы́шахъ є҆фре́ма пла́чꙋща: наказа́лъ мѧ̀ є҆сѝ, (гдⷭ҇и,) и҆ наказа́хсѧ: а҆́зъ ꙗ҆́коже теле́цъ не наꙋчи́хсѧ: ѡ҆брати́ мѧ, и҆ ѡ҆бращꙋ́сѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ є҆сѝ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ мо́й:
18 “I have surely heard Ephraim grieving thus, ‘You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as an untrained calf. Turn me, and I will be turned, for you are Yahweh my God.
19 поне́же послѣдѝ плѣне́нїѧ моегѡ̀ пока́ѧхсѧ и҆ послѣдѝ разꙋмѣ́нїѧ моегѡ̀ возстена́хъ въ де́нь посрамле́нїѧ и҆ показа́хъ тебѣ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ прїѧ́хъ ᲂу҆кори́знꙋ ѿ ю҆́ности моеѧ̀.
19 Surely after that I was turned. I repented. After that I was instructed. I struck my thigh. I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.’
20 Сы́нъ любе́зенъ мнѣ̀ є҆фре́мъ, ѻ҆троча̀ питѣ́ющеесѧ, поне́же словеса̀ моѧ̑ въ не́мъ, па́мѧтїю воспомѧнꙋ̀ и҆̀: тогѡ̀ ра́ди потща́хсѧ ѡ҆ не́мъ, ми́лꙋѧй поми́лꙋю є҆го̀, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
20 Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I still earnestly remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him. I will surely have mercy on him,” says Yahweh.
21 Поста́ви себѐ самого̀, сїѡ́не, стра́жꙋ, сотворѝ мꙋче́нїе, напра́ви се́рдце твоѐ на пꙋ́ть пра́въ, и҆́мже ходи́лъ є҆сѝ: возврати́сѧ, дѣви́це і҆и҃лева, ѡ҆брати́сѧ во гра́ды твоѧ̑ рыда́ющи.
21 “Set up road signs. Make guideposts. Set your heart toward the highway, even the way by which you went. Turn again, virgin of Israel. Turn again to these your cities.
22 Доко́лѣ ѿвраща́ешисѧ, дщѝ ѡ҆безче́ствованаѧ; ꙗ҆́кѡ созда̀ гдⷭ҇ь спⷭ҇нїе въ насажде́нїе но́во, въ не́мже спⷭ҇нїи ѡ҆бы́дꙋтъ человѣ́цы.
22 How long will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? For Yahweh has created a new thing on the earth: a woman will encompass a man.”
23 Ꙗ҆́кѡ та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: є҆щѐ рекꙋ́тъ сло́во сїѐ въ землѝ і҆ꙋде́йстѣй и҆ во градѣ́хъ є҆ѧ̀, є҆гда̀ возвращꙋ̀ преселе́нїе є҆гѡ̀: блгⷭ҇ве́нъ гдⷭ҇ь на првⷣнѣй горѣ̀ ст҃ѣ́й свое́й:
23 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Yet again they will use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I reverse their captivity: ‘Yahweh bless you, habitation of righteousness, mountain of holiness.’
24 и҆ живꙋ́щїи во градѣ́хъ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ и҆ во все́й землѝ є҆гѡ̀, кꙋ́пнѡ со земледѣ́льцемъ, и҆ вознесе́тсѧ во ста́дѣ.
24 Judah and all its cities will dwell therein together, the farmers, and those who go about with flocks.
25 Ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆пои́хъ всѧ́кꙋ дꙋ́шꙋ жа́ждꙋщꙋ и҆ всѧ́кꙋ дꙋ́шꙋ а҆́лчꙋщꙋ насы́тихъ.
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.”
26 Тогѡ̀ ра́ди воста́хъ ѿ сна̀ и҆ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ со́нъ мѝ сла́докъ бы́сть.
26 On this I awakened, and saw; and my sleep was sweet to me.
27 Сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ всѣ́ю і҆и҃лѧ и҆ і҆ꙋ́дꙋ сѣ́мѧ человѣ́чо и҆ сѣ́мѧ ско́тское.
27 “Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of animal.
28 И҆ бꙋ́детъ, ꙗ҆́коже бдѣ́хъ на нѧ̀ потреби́ти и҆ ѡ҆ѕло́бити, та́кѡ бдѣ́ти бꙋ́дꙋ ѡ҆ ни́хъ, є҆́же созида́ти и҆ насажда́ти, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
28 It will happen that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so I will watch over them to build and to plant,” says Yahweh.
29 Въ ты̑ѧ дни̑ не рекꙋ́тъ ктомꙋ̀: ѻ҆тцы̀ ꙗ҆до́ша ки̑слаѧ, а҆ зꙋ́бы дѣ́темъ ѡ҆ско́минишасѧ:
29 “In those days they will say no more, “‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
30 но кі́йждо свои́мъ грѣхо́мъ ᲂу҆́мретъ, и҆ ꙗ҆́дшемꙋ ки̑слаѧ ѡ҆скоменѧ́тсѧ зꙋ́бы є҆гѡ̀.
30 But everyone will die for his own iniquity. Every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be set on edge.
31 Сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ завѣща́ю до́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ и҆ до́мꙋ і҆ꙋ́динꙋ завѣ́тъ но́въ,
31 “Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah,
32 не по завѣ́тꙋ, є҆го́же завѣща́хъ ѻ҆тцє́мъ и҆́хъ въ де́нь, во́ньже є҆́мшꙋ мѝ за рꙋ́кꙋ и҆́хъ, и҆звестѝ ѧ҆̀ ѿ землѝ є҆гѵ́петскїѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ті́и не пребы́ша въ завѣ́тѣ мое́мъ, и҆ а҆́зъ небрего́хъ и҆̀хъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which covenant of mine they broke, although I was a husband to them,” says Yahweh.
33 Ꙗ҆́кѡ се́й завѣ́тъ, є҆го́же завѣща́ю до́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ по дне́хъ ѻ҆́нѣхъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: даѧ̀ зако́ны моѧ̑ въ мы́сли и҆́хъ, и҆ на сердца́хъ и҆́хъ напишꙋ̀ ѧ҆̀, и҆ бꙋ́дꙋ и҆̀мъ въ бг҃а, и҆ ті́и бꙋ́дꙋтъ мѝ въ лю́ди:
33 “But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says Yahweh: “I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 и҆ не наꙋчи́тъ кі́йждо бли́жнѧго своего̀ и҆ кі́йждо бра́та своего̀, глаго́лѧ: позна́й гдⷭ҇а: ꙗ҆́кѡ всѝ позна́ютъ мѧ̀ ѿ ма́ла да́же и҆ до вели́кагѡ и҆́хъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ млⷭ҇тивъ бꙋ́дꙋ непра́вдамъ и҆́хъ и҆ грѣхѡ́въ и҆́хъ не помѧнꙋ̀ ктомꙋ̀.
34 They will no longer each teach his neighbor, and every man teach his brother, saying, ‘Know Yahweh;’ for they will all know me, from their least to their greatest,” says Yahweh, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
35 А҆́ще вознесе́тсѧ не́бо на высотꙋ̀, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ а҆́ще смири́тсѧ и҆спо́дъ землѝ ни́зꙋ, и҆ а҆́зъ не ѿве́ргꙋ ро́да і҆и҃лева ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же сотвори́ша, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
35 Yahweh, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar— Yahweh of Armies is his name, says:
36 Та́кѡ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, да́вый со́лнце во свѣ́тъ днѐ, лꙋнꙋ̀ и҆ ѕвѣ́зды на свѣ́тъ но́щи, и҆ во́пль на мо́ри, и҆ возшꙋмѣ́ша вѡ́лны є҆гѡ̀, гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель и҆́мѧ є҆мꙋ̀.
36 “If these ordinances depart from before me,” says Yahweh, “then the offspring of Israel also will cease from being a nation before me forever.”
37 А҆́ще премо́лкнꙋтъ зако́ны сі́и ѿ лица̀ моегѡ̀, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, то̀ и҆ ро́дъ і҆и҃левъ преста́нетъ бы́ти ꙗ҆зы́къ пред̾ лице́мъ мои́мъ во всѧ̑ дни̑.
37 Yahweh says: “If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then I will also cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done,” says Yahweh.
38 Сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ сози́ждетсѧ гра́дъ гдⷭ҇еви ѿ столпа̀ а҆намеи́лѧ до вра́тъ ᲂу҆го́льныхъ:
38 “Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that the city will be built to Yahweh from the tower of Hananel to the gate of the corner.
39 и҆ и҆зы́детъ размѣ́ренїе є҆гѡ̀ проти́вꙋ є҆мꙋ̀ до моги́лъ гари́въ, и҆ ѡ҆б̾и́метсѧ ѡ҆́крестъ и҆збра́ннымъ ка́менїемъ,
39 The measuring line will go out further straight onward to the hill Gareb, and will turn toward Goah.
40 и҆ всю̀ ю҆до́ль ме́ртвыхъ и҆ пе́пела, и҆ ве́сь а҆ссаримѡ́ѳъ да́же до водоте́чи ке́дрскїѧ, да́же до ᲂу҆́гла ко́нїй вра́тъ восто́чныхъ, ѡ҆сщ҃е́нїе гдⷭ҇еви, и҆ ктомꙋ̀ не и҆сто́ргнетсѧ и҆ не потреби́тсѧ да́же до вѣ́ка.
40 The whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields to the brook Kidron, to the corner of the horse gate toward the east, will be holy to Yahweh. It will not be plucked up or thrown down any more forever.”

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.
