WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Призови́ же, а҆́ще кто́ тѧ ᲂу҆слы́шитъ, и҆лѝ а҆́ще кого̀ ѿ ст҃ы́хъ а҆́гг҃лъ ᲂу҆́зриши.
1 “Call now; is there any who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
2 Безꙋ́мнаго бо ᲂу҆бива́етъ гнѣ́въ, заблꙋ́ждшаго же ᲂу҆мерщвлѧ́етъ рве́нїе.
2 For resentment kills the foolish man, and jealousy kills the simple.
3 А҆́зъ же ви́дѣхъ безꙋ́мныхъ ᲂу҆коренѧ́ющихсѧ, но а҆́бїе поѧде́но бы́сть и҆́хъ жили́ще.
3 I have seen the foolish taking root, but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
4 Дале́че да бꙋ́дꙋтъ сы́нове и҆́хъ ѿ спасе́нїѧ, и҆ да сотрꙋ́тсѧ при две́рехъ хꙋ́ждшихъ, и҆ не бꙋ́детъ и҆з̾има́ѧй.
4 His children are far from safety. They are crushed in the gate. Neither is there any to deliver them,
5 Ꙗ҆̀же бо ѻ҆нѝ собра́ша, првⷣницы поѧдѧ́тъ, са́ми же ѿ ѕѡ́лъ не и҆з̾ѧ́ти бꙋ́дꙋтъ: и҆зможде́нна бꙋ́ди крѣ́пость и҆́хъ.
5 whose harvest the hungry eat up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.
6 Не и҆́мать бо ѿ землѝ и҆зы́ти трꙋ́дъ, ни ѿ го́ръ прозѧ́бнꙋти болѣ́знь:
6 For affliction doesn’t come out of the dust, neither does trouble spring out of the ground;
7 но человѣ́къ ражда́етсѧ на трꙋ́дъ, птенцы́ же сꙋ́пѡвы высо́кѡ парѧ́тъ.
7 but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
8 Ѻ҆ба́че же а҆́зъ помолю́сѧ бг҃ови, гдⷭ҇а же всѣ́хъ влⷣкꙋ призовꙋ̀,
8 “But as for me, I would seek God. I would commit my cause to God,
9 творѧ́щаго вє́лїѧ и҆ неизслѣ̑димаѧ, сла̑внаѧ же и҆ и҆зрѧ̑днаѧ, и҆̀мже нѣ́сть числа̀:
9 who does great things that can’t be fathomed, marvelous things without number;
10 даю́щаго до́ждь на зе́млю, посыла́ющаго во́дꙋ на поднебе́снꙋю:
10 who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields;
11 возносѧ́щаго смирє́нныѧ на высотꙋ̀ и҆ поги́бшыѧ воздвиза́ющаго во спасе́нїе:
11 so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety.
12 расточа́ющаго совѣ́ты лꙋка́выхъ, да не сотворѧ́тъ рꙋ́цѣ и҆́хъ и҆́стины.
12 He frustrates the plans of the crafty, so that their hands can’t perform their enterprise.
13 Оу҆ловлѧ́ѧй премꙋ́дрыхъ въ мꙋ́дрости и҆́хъ, совѣ́тъ же кова́рныхъ разорѝ.
13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness; the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.
14 Во днѝ ѡ҆бы́метъ и҆̀хъ тьма̀, въ полꙋ́дне же да ѡ҆сѧ́жꙋтъ ꙗ҆́коже въ нощѝ,
14 They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope at noonday as in the night.
15 и҆ да поги́бнꙋтъ на бра́ни: немощны́й же да и҆зы́детъ и҆з̾ рꙋкѝ си́льнагѡ.
15 But he saves from the sword of their mouth, even the needy from the hand of the mighty.
16 Бꙋ́ди же немощно́мꙋ наде́жда, непра́веднагѡ же ᲂу҆ста̀ да заградѧ́тсѧ.
16 So the poor has hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
17 Блаже́нъ же человѣ́къ, є҆го́же ѡ҆бличѝ бг҃ъ, наказа́нїѧ же вседержи́телева не ѿвраща́йсѧ:
17 “Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
18 то́й бо болѣ́ти твори́тъ и҆ па́ки возставлѧ́етъ: поразѝ, и҆ рꙋ́цѣ є҆гѡ̀ и҆сцѣлѧ́тъ:
18 For he wounds and binds up. He injures and his hands make whole.
19 шести́жды ѿ бѣ́дъ и҆́зметъ тѧ̀, въ седмѣ́мъ же не ко́снеттисѧ ѕло̀:
19 He will deliver you in six troubles; yes, in seven no evil will touch you.
20 во гла́дѣ и҆зба́витъ тѧ̀ ѿ сме́рти, на бра́ни же и҆з̾ рꙋкѝ желѣ́за и҆зрѣши́тъ тѧ̀:
20 In famine he will redeem you from death; in war, from the power of the sword.
21 ѿ бича̀ ѧ҆зы́ка скры́етъ тѧ̀, и҆ не ᲂу҆бои́шисѧ ѿ ѕѡ́лъ находѧ́щихъ:
21 You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, neither will you be afraid of destruction when it comes.
22 непра́вєднымъ и҆ беззакѡ́ннымъ посмѣе́шисѧ, ѿ ди́вїихъ же ѕвѣре́й не ᲂу҆бои́шисѧ,
22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, neither will you be afraid of the animals of the earth.
23 занѐ съ ка́менїемъ ди́вїимъ завѣ́тъ тво́й: ѕвѣ́рїе бо ди́вїи примирѧ́тсѧ тебѣ̀.
23 For you will be allied with the stones of the field. The animals of the field will be at peace with you.
24 Пото́мъ ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́еши, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ ми́рѣ бꙋ́детъ до́мъ тво́й, жили́ще же хра́мины твоеѧ̀ не и҆́мать согрѣши́ти:
24 You will know that your tent is in peace. You will visit your fold, and will miss nothing.
25 ᲂу҆разꙋмѣ́еши же, ꙗ҆́кѡ мно́го сѣ́мѧ твоѐ, и҆ ча̑да твоѧ̑ бꙋ́дꙋтъ ꙗ҆́кѡ ве́сь ѕла́къ се́льный:
25 You will know also that your offspring will be great, your offspring as the grass of the earth.
26 вни́деши же во гро́бъ ꙗ҆́коже пшени́ца созрѣ́лаѧ во вре́мѧ пожа́таѧ, и҆лѝ ꙗ҆́коже сто́гъ гꙋмна̀ во вре́мѧ свезе́нный.
26 You will come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.
27 Сѐ, сїѧ̑ си́це и҆зслѣ́дихомъ: сїѧ̑ сꙋ́ть, ꙗ҆̀же слы́шахомъ: ты́ же разꙋмѣ́й себѣ̀, а҆́ще что̀ сотвори́лъ є҆сѝ.
27 Behold, we have researched it. It is so. Hear it, and know it for your good.”

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).

  1. Quotes verse 5:13 John of Damascus, An Exact Exposition of the Orthodox Faith (Book IV, Chapter XIV)

    … eye on virgins, according to the prophecy of Isaiah, who said, Behold a virgin shall conceive and bare a Son and shall call His name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us,' in order that he who taketh the wise in their own craftiness may deceive him who always glorieth in his wisdom, the maiden is given in marriage …
