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 ѿ гдⷭ҇а, гл҃ющее:
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 ста́ни во вратѣ́хъ до́мꙋ гдⷭ҇нѧ и҆ проповѣ́ждь та́мѡ сло́во то̀ и҆ глаго́ли: слы́шите сло́во гдⷭ҇не, всѧ̀ і҆ꙋде́а, ходѧ́щїи сквозѣ̀ врата̀ сїѧ̑, да покло́нитесѧ гдⷭ҇ꙋ:
2 “Stand in the gate of Yahweh’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Yahweh.’”
3 сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ, бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: и҆спра́вите пꙋти̑ ва́шѧ и҆ начина̑нїѧ ва̑ша, и҆ вселю́ вы на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ.
3 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Не надѣ́йтесѧ на себѐ во словесѣ́хъ лжи́выхъ, поне́же весьма̀ не ᲂу҆по́льзꙋютъ ва́съ, глаго́люще: хра́мъ гдⷭ҇ень, хра́мъ гдⷭ҇ень, хра́мъ гдⷭ҇ень є҆́сть.
4 Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, are these.’
5 Ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще и҆справлѧ́юще и҆спра́вите пꙋти̑ ва́шѧ и҆ ᲂу҆мышлє́нїѧ ва̑ша, и҆ творѧ́ще сотворитѐ сꙋ́дъ посредѣ̀ мꙋ́жа и҆ посредѣ̀ и҆́скреннѧгѡ є҆гѡ̀,
5 For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
6 и҆ прише́льцꙋ и҆ си́рꙋ и҆ вдови́цѣ не сотвори́те наси́лїѧ, и҆ кро́ве непови́нныѧ не и҆злїе́те на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ, и҆ в̾слѣ́дъ богѡ́въ чꙋжди́хъ не по́йдете на ѕло̀ ва́мъ,
6 if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt,
7 вселю̀ ва́съ на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ, въ землѝ, ю҆́же да́хъ ѻ҆тцє́мъ ва́шымъ ѿ вѣ́ка да́же и҆ до вѣ́ка.
7 then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.
8 А҆́ще же вы̀ надѣ́етесѧ на словеса̀ лжи̑ваѧ, ѿѻнꙋ́дꙋже не бꙋ́детъ ва́мъ по́льзы,
8 Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit.
9 и҆ кра́дете и҆ ᲂу҆бива́ете, и҆ блꙋ́дствꙋете и҆ клене́тесѧ лжи́вѡ, и҆ жретѐ ваа́лꙋ и҆ хо́дите в̾слѣ́дъ богѡ́въ чꙋжди́хъ, и҆́хже не вѣ́сте, ꙗ҆́кѡ во ѕло̀ ва́мъ сꙋ́ть,
9 Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,
10 и҆ прїидо́сте и҆ ста́сте предо мно́ю въ домꙋ̀ се́мъ, въ не́мже при́звано є҆́сть и҆́мѧ моѐ, и҆ реклѝ є҆стѐ: ᲂу҆дали́хомсѧ, є҆́же не твори́ти всѧ̑ ме́рзѡсти сїѧ̑:
10 then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered,’ that you may do all these abominations?
11 є҆да̀ верте́пъ разбо́йникѡмъ є҆́сть до́мъ мо́й, въ не́мже призва́сѧ и҆́мѧ моѐ та́мѡ во ѻ҆́чїю ва́шєю; И҆ сѐ, а҆́зъ ви́дѣхъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь.
11 Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it,” says Yahweh.
12 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди и҆ди́те къ мѣ́стꙋ моемꙋ̀, є҆́же въ силѡ́мѣ, и҆дѣ́же всели́хъ и҆́мѧ моѐ ѿ нача́ла, и҆ ви́дите, что̀ сотвори́хъ є҆мꙋ̀ лꙋка́вствъ ра́ди люді́й мои́хъ і҆и҃лѧ.
12 “But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 И҆ нн҃ѣ, поне́же сотвори́сте всѧ̑ дѣла̀ сїѧ̑, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ гл҃ахъ къ ва́мъ ра́нѡ востаю́щь и҆ гл҃ющь, и҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шасте менѐ, и҆ зва́хъ ва́съ, и҆ не ѿвѣща́сте:
13 Now, because you have done all these works,” says Yahweh, “and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn’t hear; and I called you, but you didn’t answer;
14 ᲂу҆̀бо и҆ а҆́зъ сотворю̀ до́мꙋ семꙋ̀, въ не́мже при́звано є҆́сть и҆́мѧ моѐ, на него́же вы̀ ᲂу҆пова́сте, и҆ мѣ́стꙋ, є҆́же да́хъ ва́мъ и҆ ѻ҆тцє́мъ ва́шымъ, ꙗ҆́коже сотвори́хъ силѡ́мꙋ.
14 therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.
15 И҆ ѿве́ргꙋ ва́съ ѿ лица̀ моегѡ̀, ꙗ҆́коже ѿверго́хъ всю̀ бра́тїю ва́шꙋ, всѐ сѣ́мѧ є҆фре́мово.
15 I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring of Ephraim.
16 Ты́ же не моли́сѧ ѡ҆ лю́дехъ си́хъ и҆ не просѝ є҆́же поми́лѡванымъ бы́ти и҆̀мъ, и҆ не молѝ, нижѐ пристꙋпа́й ко мнѣ̀ ѡ҆ ни́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ᲂу҆слы́шꙋ тѧ̀.
16 “Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up a cry or prayer for them or make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
17 Є҆да̀ не ви́диши, что̀ сі́и творѧ́тъ во градѣ́хъ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ и҆ на пꙋте́хъ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мскихъ;
17 Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Сы́нове и҆́хъ собира́ютъ дрова̀, и҆ ѻ҆тцы̀ и҆́хъ зажига́ютъ ѻ҆́гнь, и҆ жєны̀ и҆́хъ мѣ́сѧтъ мꙋкꙋ̀, да сотворѧ́тъ ѡ҆прѣсно́ки во́инствꙋ небе́сномꙋ, и҆ возлїѧ́ша возлїѧ̑нїѧ богѡ́мъ чꙋжди̑мъ, да прогнѣ́ваютъ мѧ̀.
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19 Мене́ ли ті́и прогнѣвлѧ́ютъ; гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: є҆да̀ не себѐ сами́хъ; да постыдѧ́тсѧ ли́ца и҆́хъ.
19 Do they provoke me to anger?” says Yahweh. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?”
20 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди та́кѡ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: сѐ, гнѣ́въ и҆ ꙗ҆́рость моѧ̀ лїе́тсѧ на мѣ́сто сїѐ и҆ на лю́ди, и҆ на скоты̀ и҆ на всѧ́ко дре́во страны̀ и҆́хъ и҆ на плоды̀ земны̑ѧ, и҆ возжже́тсѧ и҆ не ᲂу҆га́снетъ.
20 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched.”
21 Сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ, бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ: всесожжє́нїѧ ва̑ша собери́те со же́ртвами ва́шими и҆ и҆з̾ѧди́те мѧса̀:
21 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat.
22 ꙗ҆́кѡ не гл҃ахъ ко ѻ҆тцє́мъ ва́шымъ и҆ не заповѣ́дахъ и҆̀мъ въ де́нь, во́ньже и҆зведо́хъ и҆̀хъ ѿ землѝ є҆гѵ́петскїѧ, ѡ҆ всесожже́нїихъ и҆ же́ртвахъ,
22 For I didn’t speak to your fathers or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices;
23 но (то́кмѡ) сло́во сїѐ заповѣ́дахъ и҆̀мъ, рекі́й: ᲂу҆слы́шите гла́съ мо́й, и҆ бꙋ́дꙋ ва́мъ въ бг҃а, и҆ вы̀ бꙋ́дете мнѣ̀ въ лю́ди, и҆ ходи́те во всѣ́хъ пꙋте́хъ мои́хъ, въ ни́хже повелѣ́хъ ва́мъ, да бла́го бꙋ́детъ ва́мъ.
23 but this thing I commanded them, saying, ‘Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’
24 И҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шаша менѐ, и҆ не внѧ́тъ ᲂу҆́хо и҆́хъ: но поидо́ша въ по́хотехъ и҆ стро́потствѣ се́рдца своегѡ̀ лꙋка́вагѡ, и҆ сотвори́шасѧ на за̑днѧѧ, а҆ не на прє́днѧѧ,
24 But they didn’t listen or turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
25 ѿ днѐ, во́ньже и҆зыдо́ша ѻ҆тцы̀ и҆́хъ ѿ землѝ є҆гѵ́петскїѧ, и҆ да́же до днѐ сегѡ̀: и҆ посла́хъ къ ва́мъ всѧ̑ рабы̑ моѧ̑ прⷪ҇ро́ки, въ де́нь и҆ ра́нѡ востаѧ̀ и҆ посыла́ѧ:
25 Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them.
26 и҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шаша мѧ̀, ни приклони́ша ᲂу҆́хо своѐ, но ѡ҆жесточи́ша вы́ю свою̀ па́че ѻ҆тє́цъ свои́хъ.
26 Yet they didn’t listen to me or incline their ear, but made their neck stiff. They did worse than their fathers.
27 И҆ рече́ши къ ни̑мъ всѧ̑ словеса̀ сїѧ̑, и҆ не ᲂу҆слы́шатъ тѧ̀, и҆ воззове́ши и҆̀хъ, и҆ не ѿвѣща́ютъ тебѣ̀.
27 “You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.
28 И҆ рече́ши къ ни̑мъ: се́й ꙗ҆зы́къ, и҆́же не послꙋ́ша гла́са гдⷭ҇а бг҃а своегѡ̀, ни воспрїѧ́тъ наказа́нїѧ: поги́бе вѣ́ра и҆ ѿѧ́та є҆́сть ѿ ᲂу҆́стъ и҆́хъ.
28 You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to Yahweh their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’
29 Ѡ҆стризѝ главꙋ̀ твою̀ и҆ ѿме́тни, и҆ воспрїимѝ во ᲂу҆стнѣ̀ рыда́нїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿве́рже гдⷭ҇ь и҆ ѿри́нꙋ ро́дъ творѧ́й сїѧ̑.
29 Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for Yahweh has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
30 Поне́же сотвори́ша сы́нове і҆ꙋ̑дины лꙋка́вое во ѻ҆́чїю моє́ю, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: поста́виша ме́рзѡсти своѧ̑ въ домꙋ̀, въ не́мже при́звано є҆́сть и҆́мѧ моѐ, да ѡ҆сквернѧ́тъ є҆го̀,
30 “For the children of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight,” says Yahweh. “They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
31 и҆ созда́ша тре́бище тафе́ѳꙋ, є҆́же є҆́сть во ю҆до́ли сы́на є҆нно́млѧ, да сожига́ютъ сы́ны своѧ̑ и҆ дщє́ри своѧ̑ ѻ҆гне́мъ, є҆гѡ́же не повелѣ́хъ и҆̀мъ, нижѐ помы́слихъ въ срⷣцы мое́мъ:
31 They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I didn’t command, nor did it come into my mind.
32 сегѡ̀ ра́ди сѐ, дні́е грѧдꙋ́тъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆ не рекꙋ́тъ ктомꙋ̀: тре́бище тафе́ѳово и҆ ю҆до́ль сы́на є҆нно́млѧ, но ю҆до́ль закла́ныхъ: и҆ погребꙋ́тсѧ во тафе́ѳѣ, зане́же нѣ́сть мѣ́ста.
32 Therefore behold, the days come”, says Yahweh, “that it will no more be called ‘Topheth’ or ‘The valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’; for they will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.
33 И҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ трꙋ́пїе люді́й си́хъ во снѣ́дь пти́цамъ небє́снымъ и҆ ѕвѣрє́мъ зємны́мъ, и҆ не бꙋ́детъ ѿгонѧ́ющагѡ.
33 The dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth. No one will frighten them away.
34 И҆ ᲂу҆праздню̀ ѿ градѡ́въ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ и҆ ѿ пꙋті́й і҆ерⷭ҇ли́млихъ гла́съ ра́дꙋющихсѧ и҆ гла́съ веселѧ́щихсѧ, гла́съ жениха̀ и҆ гла́съ невѣ́сты, во ѡ҆пꙋстѣ́нїи бо бꙋ́детъ всѧ̀ землѧ̀.
34 Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will become a waste.”

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).
This is in accordance with what Jeremiah says, "The Lord hath rejected and cast off the nation which does these things; for the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the Lord." And again in like manner does Jeremiah speak: "I set watchmen over you; hearken to the sound of the trumpet; and they said, We will …
