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 Во вре́мѧ ѻ҆́но, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆зве́ргꙋтъ кѡ́сти царе́й і҆ꙋ́ды и҆ кѡ́сти кнѧзе́й є҆гѡ̀, и҆ кѡ́сти свѧще́нникѡвъ и҆ кѡ́сти проро́кѡвъ и҆ кѡ́сти ѡ҆бита́ющихъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ и҆з̾ гробѡ́въ и҆́хъ
1 “At that time,” says Yahweh, “they will bring the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of his princes, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.
2 и҆ пове́ргꙋтъ и҆̀хъ проти́вꙋ со́лнца и҆ лꙋны̀ и҆ проти́вꙋ всѣ́хъ ѕвѣ́здъ небе́сныхъ и҆ проти́вꙋ всегѡ̀ во́инства небе́снагѡ, и҆̀хже возлюби́ша и҆ и҆̀мже слꙋжи́ша и҆ в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ ходи́ша, и҆ и҆́хже держа́хꙋсѧ и҆ и҆̀мже поклони́шасѧ: неѡпла́кани и҆ непогребе́ни бꙋ́дꙋтъ и҆ въ примѣ́ръ на лицы̀ землѝ бꙋ́дꙋтъ:
2 They will spread them before the sun, the moon, and all the army of the sky, which they have loved, which they have served, after which they have walked, which they have sought, and which they have worshiped. They will not be gathered or be buried. They will be like dung on the surface of the earth.
3 ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆збра́ша па́че сме́рть, не́же живо́тъ, и҆ всѣ̑мъ, и҆̀же ѡ҆ста́ша ѿ пле́мене сегѡ̀ стропти́вагѡ во всѣ́хъ мѣ́стѣхъ, а҆́може и҆зри́нꙋ и҆̀хъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ.
3 Death will be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, that remain in all the places where I have driven them,” says Yahweh of Armies.
4 И҆ рече́ши къ ни̑мъ: поне́же сїѧ̑ гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: є҆да̀ па́даѧй не востае́тъ, и҆лѝ ѿвраща́ѧйсѧ не ѡ҆брати́тсѧ;
4 “Moreover you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh says: “‘Do men fall, and not rise up again? Does one turn away, and not return?
5 Вскꙋ́ю ѿврати́шасѧ лю́дїе моѝ сі́и во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ ѿвраще́нїемъ безстꙋ́днымъ и҆ ᲂу҆крѣпи́шасѧ во произволе́нїи свое́мъ и҆ не восхотѣ́ша ѡ҆брати́тисѧ;
5 Why then have the people of Jerusalem fallen back by a perpetual backsliding? They cling to deceit. They refuse to return.
6 Внима́йте и҆ слꙋ́шайте: не та́кѡ ли возглаго́лютъ: нѣ́сть человѣ́къ творѧ́й покаѧ́нїе ѡ҆ грѣсѣ̀ свое́мъ, глаго́лѧ: что̀ сотвори́хъ; И҆знемо́же бѣжа́й ѿ тече́нїѧ своегѡ̀, а҆́ки ко́нь ᲂу҆трꙋжде́нъ во ржа́нїи свое́мъ.
6 I listened and heard, but they didn’t say what is right. No one repents of his wickedness, saying, “What have I done?” Everyone turns to his course, as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.
7 Є҆рѡді́а на небесѝ позна̀ вре́мѧ своѐ, го́рлица и҆ ла́стовица се́льнаѧ, вра́бїе сохрани́ша времена̀ вхо́дѡвъ свои́хъ: лю́дїе же моѝ сі́и не позна́ша сꙋде́бъ гдⷭ҇нихъ.
7 Yes, the stork in the sky knows her appointed times. The turtledove, the swallow, and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people don’t know Yahweh’s law.
8 Ка́кѡ рече́те, ꙗ҆́кѡ мы̀ мꙋ́дри є҆смы̀ и҆ зако́нъ гдⷭ҇ень съ на́ми є҆́сть; И҆́стиннѡ всꙋ́е бы́сть тро́сть лжи́ваѧ кни́жникѡмъ.
8 “‘How do you say, “We are wise, and Yahweh’s law is with us”? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made that a lie.
9 Постыдѣ́шасѧ премꙋ́дрїи, и҆ ᲂу҆страше́ни и҆ пои́мани бы́ша, сло́во бо гдⷭ҇не ѿверго́ша: ка́ѧ мꙋ́дрость є҆́сть въ ни́хъ;
9 The wise men are disappointed. They are dismayed and trapped. Behold, they have rejected Yahweh’s word. What kind of wisdom is in them?
10 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди да́мъ жєны̀ и҆́хъ и҆ны̑мъ и҆ се́ла и҆́хъ наслѣ́дникѡмъ, поне́же ѿ ма́ла да́же до вели́ка всѝ златолю́бїю послѣ́дꙋютъ и҆ ѿ проро́ка да́же до свѧще́нника всѝ творѧ́тъ лжꙋ̀,
10 Therefore I will give their wives to others and their fields to those who will possess them. For everyone from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness; from the prophet even to the priest everyone deals falsely.
11 и҆ и҆сцѣлѧ́хꙋ сотрє́нїѧ дще́ре люді́й мои́хъ, ко безче́стїю глаго́люще: ми́ръ, ми́ръ. И҆ не бѣ̀ ми́ра.
11 They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, “Peace, peace,” when there is no peace.
12 Постыжде́ни сꙋ́ть, ꙗ҆́кѡ гнꙋ́сство сотвори́ша и҆ постыдѣ́нїемъ не постыдѣ́шасѧ и҆ посрами́тисѧ не вѣ́дѣша: сегѡ̀ ра́ди падꙋ́тъ междꙋ̀ па́дающими, во вре́мѧ посѣще́нїѧ своегѡ̀ падꙋ́тъ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь.
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed. They couldn’t blush. Therefore they will fall among those who fall. In the time of their visitation they will be cast down, says Yahweh.
13 И҆ соберꙋ́тъ плоды̀ и҆́хъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: нѣ́сть гро́зда на лозѣ̀, и҆ не сꙋ́ть смѡ́кви на смоко́вницахъ, и҆ ли́ствїе ѿпадо́ша: и҆ да́хъ и҆̀мъ, и҆ мимоидо́ша и҆́хъ.
13 “‘I will utterly consume them, says Yahweh. No grapes will be on the vine, no figs on the fig tree, and the leaf will fade. The things that I have given them will pass away from them.’”
14 Почто̀ мы̀ сѣди́мъ; совокꙋпи́тесѧ и҆ вни́демъ во гра́ды твє́рды и҆ пове́ржемсѧ та́мѡ, ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ на́шъ ѿри́нꙋ на́съ и҆ напоѝ на́съ водо́ю же́лчи, согрѣши́хомъ бо пред̾ ни́мъ.
14 “Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves! Let’s enter into the fortified cities, and let’s be silent there; for Yahweh our God has put us to silence, and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against Yahweh.
15 Жда́хомъ ми́ра, и҆ не бѧ́хꙋ блага̑ѧ: вре́мене ᲂу҆врачева́нїѧ, и҆ сѐ, боѧ́знь.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and behold, dismay!
16 Ѿ да́на слы́шано бы́сть ржа́нїе ко́ней є҆гѡ̀, ѿ гла́са ржа́нїѧ ꙗ҆жде́нїѧ ко́ней потрѧсе́сѧ всѧ̀ землѧ̀: и҆ прїи́детъ и҆ пожре́тъ зе́млю и҆ и҆сполне́нїе є҆ѧ̀, гра́дъ и҆ ѡ҆бита́ющихъ въ не́мъ:
16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan. The whole land trembles at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones; for they have come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it, the city and those who dwell therein.”
17 ꙗ҆́кѡ сѐ, а҆́зъ послю̀ на ва́съ ѕмїи̑ ᲂу҆мерщвлѧ́ющыѧ, и҆̀мже нѣ́сть ѡ҆баѧ́нїѧ, и҆ ᲂу҆грызꙋ́тъ ва́съ, речѐ гдⷭ҇ь,
17 “For, behold, I will send serpents, adders among you, which will not be charmed; and they will bite you,” says Yahweh.
18 неисцѣ́льнѡ со болѣ́знїю се́рдца ва́шегѡ и҆счеза́ющагѡ.
18 Oh that I could comfort myself against sorrow! My heart is faint within me.
19 Сѐ, гла́съ во́плѧ дще́ре люді́й мои́хъ ѿ землѝ и҆здале́ча: є҆да̀ гдⷭ҇ь нѣ́сть въ сїѡ́нѣ; и҆лѝ цр҃ѧ̀ нѣ́сть въ не́мъ; поне́же прогнѣ́ваша мѧ̀ во и҆зва́ѧнныхъ свои́хъ и҆ въ сꙋ́етныхъ чꙋжди́хъ.
19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land that is very far off: “Isn’t Yahweh in Zion? Isn’t her King in her?” “Why have they provoked me to anger with their engraved images, and with foreign idols?”
20 Про́йде жа́тва, мимои́де лѣ́то, и҆ мы̀ нѣ́смы спасе́ни.
20 “The harvest is past. The summer has ended, and we are not saved.”
21 Над̾ сокрꙋше́нїемъ дще́ре люді́й мои́хъ сокрꙋше́нъ є҆́смь и҆ ско́рбенъ: во ᲂу҆́жасѣ ѡ҆б̾ѧ́ша мѧ̀ бѡлѣ́зни а҆́ки ражда́ющїѧ.
21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people, I am hurt. I mourn. Dismay has taken hold of me.
22 И҆лѝ риті́ны нѣ́сть въ галаа́дѣ; и҆лѝ врача̀ нѣ́сть та́мѡ; чесѡ̀ ра́ди нѣ́сть и҆сцѣле́на ра́на дще́ре люді́й мои́хъ;
22 Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then isn’t the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

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).
… hear the voice of his swift horses from Dan; the whole earth shall be moved by the voice of the neighing of his galloping horses: he shall also come and devour the earth, and the fulness thereof, the city also, and they that dwell therein." This, too, is the reason that this tribe is not reckoned in the Apocalypse along …
But about not despairing, it is said, "Doth he fall, and not arise? Doth he turn away, and not return?" and, "I do not will the death of the sinner, so much as that he should turn and live:" and, "To-day if ye will hear His voice:" and many other such things, both sayings and examples are set in the …
