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 гдⷭ҇не, є҆́же бы́сть ко мїхе́ю мѡрасѳі́тинꙋ, во дни̑ і҆ѡаѳа́ма и҆ а҆ха́за и҆ є҆зекі́и царе́й і҆ꙋ́диныхъ, ѡ҆ ни́хже ви́дѣ ѡ҆ самарі́и и҆ ѡ҆ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ.
1 Yahweh’s word that came to Micah of Morasheth in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Слы́шите, лю́дїе всѝ, словеса̀, и҆ внемлѝ, землѐ и҆ всѝ и҆̀же на не́й, и҆ бꙋ́детъ гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ въ ва́съ въ послꙋ́шествованїе, гдⷭ҇ь ѿ до́мꙋ ст҃а́гѡ своегѡ̀.
2 Hear, you peoples, all of you! Listen, O earth, and all that is therein. Let the Lord Yahweh be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 Поне́же, сѐ, гдⷭ҇ь и҆схо́дитъ ѿ мѣ́ста своегѡ̀, и҆ сни́детъ и҆ настꙋ́питъ на высѡты̀ зємны́ѧ,
3 For behold, Yahweh comes out of his place, and will come down and tread on the high places of the earth.
4 и҆ поколе́блютсѧ го́ры под̾ ни́мъ, и҆ ю҆дѡ́ли раста́ютъ ꙗ҆́кѡ во́скъ ѿ лица̀ ѻ҆гнѧ̀ и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ вода̀ сходѧ́щи со ᲂу҆стремле́нїемъ.
4 The mountains melt under him, and the valleys split apart like wax before the fire, like waters that are poured down a steep place.
5 Нече́стїѧ ра́ди і҆а́кѡвлѧ всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ и҆ грѣха̀ ра́ди до́мꙋ і҆и҃лева. Ко́е нече́стїе до́мꙋ і҆а́кѡвлю; не самарі́а ли; и҆ кі́й грѣ́хъ до́мꙋ і҆ꙋ́дина; не і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ ли;
5 “All this is for the disobedience of Jacob, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the disobedience of Jacob? Isn’t it Samaria? And what are the high places of Judah? Aren’t they Jerusalem?
6 И҆ положꙋ̀ самарі́ю во ѻ҆во́щное храни́лище се́льное и҆ въ са́дъ вїногра́да, и҆ разве́ргꙋ въ про́пасть ка́менїе є҆ѧ̀, и҆ ѡ҆снова̑нїѧ є҆ѧ̀ ѿкры́ю:
6 Therefore I will make Samaria like a rubble heap of the field, like places for planting vineyards; and I will pour down its stones into the valley, and I will uncover its foundations.
7 и҆ всѧ̑ и҆зва̑ѧннаѧ є҆ѧ̀ сокрꙋша́тъ, и҆ всѧ̑ мзды̑ є҆ѧ̀ запалѧ́тъ ѻ҆гне́мъ, и҆ всѧ̑ кꙋмі́ры є҆ѧ̀ положꙋ̀ въ па́гꙋбꙋ: поне́же ѿ найма̀ блꙋда̀ собра̀ и҆ ѿ найма̀ блꙋже́нїѧ совратѝ.
7 All her idols will be beaten to pieces, all her temple gifts will be burned with fire, and I will destroy all her images; for of the hire of a prostitute has she gathered them, and to the hire of a prostitute shall they return.”
8 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди возрыда́етъ и҆ воспла́четсѧ, по́йдетъ боса̀ и҆ нага̀, сотвори́тъ пла́чь а҆́ки ѕмїє́въ и҆ рыда́нїе а҆́ки дще́рей сїри́нскихъ:
8 For this I will lament and wail. I will go stripped and naked. I will howl like the jackals and mourn like the ostriches.
9 ꙗ҆́кѡ ѡ҆держа̀ ꙗ҆́зва є҆ѧ̀, поне́же прїи́де да́же до і҆ꙋ́ды и҆ коснꙋ́сѧ до вра́тъ люді́й мои́хъ да́же до і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма.
9 For her wounds are incurable; for it has come even to Judah. It reaches to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 И҆̀же въ ге́ѳѣ, не велича́йтесѧ, и҆ і҆енакі́млѧне, не согражда́йте и҆з̾ до́мꙋ на посмѣѧ́нїе, пе́рстїю посы́плите посмѣѧ́нїе ва́ше.
10 Don’t tell it in Gath. Don’t weep at all. At Beth Ophrah I have rolled myself in the dust.
11 Ѡ҆бита́ющаѧ до́брѣ во градѣ́хъ свои́хъ, не и҆зы́де живꙋ́щаѧ въ сеннаа́рѣ, пла́читесѧ до́мꙋ (сꙋ́щагѡ) бли́з̾ є҆ѧ̀, прїи́метъ ѿ ва́съ ꙗ҆́звꙋ болѣ́зней.
11 Pass on, inhabitant of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame. The inhabitant of Zaanan won’t come out. The wailing of Beth Ezel will take from you his protection.
12 Кто̀ нача̀ во блага̑ѧ всели́вшейсѧ въ болѣ́знехъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ снидо́ша ѕла̑ѧ ѿ гдⷭ҇а на врата̀ і҆ерⷭ҇ли̑млѧ,
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waits anxiously for good, because evil has come down from Yahweh to the gate of Jerusalem.
13 шꙋ́мъ колесни́цъ и҆ ко́нникѡвъ: живꙋ́щаѧ въ лахі́сѣ нача́льница грѣха̀ та̀ є҆́сть дще́ри сїѡ́ни, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ тебѣ̀ ѡ҆брѣто́шасѧ нечє́стїѧ і҆и҃лєва.
13 Harness the chariot to the swift steed, inhabitant of Lachish. She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
14 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди да́стъ посыла́ємыѧ да́же до наслѣ́дїѧ ге́ѳова, до́мы сꙋ́єтны, вотщѐ бы́ша царє́мъ і҆и҃лєвымъ,
14 Therefore you will give a parting gift to Moresheth Gath. The houses of Achzib will be a deceitful thing to the kings of Israel.
15 до́ндеже наслѣ́дники приведꙋ̀ тебѣ̀, живꙋ́щаѧ въ лахі́сѣ, наслѣ́дїе да́же до ѻ҆долла́ма прїи́детъ, сла́ва дще́ре сїѡ́ни.
15 I will yet bring a conqueror to you, inhabitants of Mareshah. The glory of Israel will come to Adullam.
16 Ѡ҆бросни́сѧ и҆ ѡ҆стризи́сѧ по ча́дѣхъ свои́хъ млады́хъ: разширѝ ѡ҆бросне́нїе твоѐ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆ре́лъ, поне́же плѣне́ни бы́ша ѿ тебє̀.
16 Shave your heads, and cut off your hair for the children of your delight. Enlarge your baldness like the vulture, for they have gone into captivity from you!

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).
Micah also names the same times as those of his prophecy, after the days of Uzziah; for he names the same three kings as Hosea named,--Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah.

… in the future tense: for instance, He shall come openly, and this from Zechariah, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, and this from Micah, Behold, the Lord cometh out of His place and will come down and tread upon the high places of the earth.
