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 Оу҆̀, лю́тѣ мнѣ̀! поне́же бы́хъ а҆́ки собира́ѧй сла́мꙋ на жа́твѣ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ па́родокъ во ѡ҆б̾има́нїи вїногра́да не сꙋ́щꙋ гро́здїю, є҆́же ꙗ҆́сти первоплѡ́днаѧ, ꙗ҆̀же вожделѣ̀ дꙋша̀ моѧ̀.
1 Misery is mine! Indeed, I am like one who gathers the summer fruits, as gleanings of the vineyard. There is no cluster of grapes to eat. My soul desires to eat the early fig.
2 Оу҆̀, лю́тѣ мнѣ̀, дꙋшѐ! ꙗ҆́кѡ поги́бе бл҃гочⷭ҇ти́вый ѿ землѝ, и҆ и҆справлѧ́ющагѡ въ человѣ́цѣхъ нѣ́сть: всѝ во кро́вехъ прѧ́тсѧ, кі́йждо бли́жнѧго своего̀ ѡ҆ѕлоблѧ́етъ ѡ҆ѕлобле́нїемъ,
2 The godly man has perished out of the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.
3 на ѕло̀ рꙋ́ки своѧ̑ ᲂу҆готовлѧ́ютъ: кнѧ́зь про́ситъ, и҆ сꙋдїѧ̀ ми̑рнаѧ словеса̀ глаго́летъ, жела́нїе дꙋшѝ є҆гѡ̀ є҆́сть: и҆ ѿимꙋ̀ блага̑ѧ и҆́хъ,
3 Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler and judge ask for a bribe. The powerful man dictates the evil desire of his soul. Thus they conspire together.
4 ꙗ҆́кѡ мо́ль поѧда́ѧй, и҆ ходѧ́й по пра́виламъ въ де́нь стражбы̀. Оу҆̀, лю́тѣ! ᲂу҆̀, лю́тѣ! ѿмщє́нїѧ твоѧ̑ приспѣ́ша, нн҃ѣ бꙋ́дꙋтъ пла́чы и҆́хъ.
4 The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
5 Не вѣ́рите дрꙋгѡ́мъ, ни надѣ́йтесѧ на старѣ̑йшины, и҆ ѿ сожи́тельницы твоеѧ̀ храни́сѧ, є҆́же сказа́ти є҆́й что̀:
5 Don’t trust in a neighbor. Don’t put confidence in a friend. With the woman lying in your embrace, be careful of the words of your mouth!
6 поне́же сы́нъ безче́ститъ ѻ҆тца̀, дще́рь воста́нетъ на ма́терь свою̀ и҆ невѣ́ста на свекро́вь свою̀, вразѝ всѝ мꙋ́жꙋ дома́шнїи є҆гѡ̀.
6 For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
7 А҆́зъ же ко гдⷭ҇еви воззрю̀, потерплю̀ бг҃а сп҃са моего̀, ᲂу҆слы́шитъ мѧ̀ бг҃ъ мо́й.
7 But as for me, I will look to Yahweh. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
8 Не ра́дꙋйсѧ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀, вражде́бница моѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ падо́хъ, и҆ воста́нꙋ: занѐ а҆́ще сѧ́дꙋ во тьмѣ̀, гдⷭ҇ь ѡ҆свѣти́тъ мѧ̀.
8 Don’t rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, Yahweh will be a light to me.
9 Гнѣ́въ гдⷭ҇ень стерплю̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ согрѣши́хъ є҆мꙋ̀, до́ндеже ѡ҆правди́тъ прю̀ мою̀ и҆ сотвори́тъ сꙋ́дъ мо́й: и҆ и҆зведе́тъ мѧ̀ на свѣ́тъ, и҆ ᲂу҆зрю̀ пра́вдꙋ є҆гѡ̀.
9 I will bear the indignation of Yahweh, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case and executes judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light. I will see his righteousness.
10 И҆ ᲂу҆́зритъ вражде́бница моѧ̀, и҆ ѡ҆блече́тсѧ въ стꙋ́дъ глаго́лющаѧ ко мнѣ̀: гдѣ́ є҆сть гдⷭ҇ь бг҃ъ тво́й; Ѻ҆́чи моѝ воззрѧ́тъ на ню̀, нн҃ѣ бꙋ́детъ въ попра́нїе а҆́ки ка́лъ на пꙋте́хъ.
10 Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, “Where is Yahweh your God?” My eyes will see her. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.
11 Де́нь глажде́нїѧ плі́нѳа: и҆зглажде́нїе твоѐ де́нь ѻ҆́ный, и҆ сотре́тъ зако́ны твоѧ̑ де́нь ѻ҆́ный.
11 A day to build your walls! In that day, he will extend your boundary.
12 И҆ гра́ди твоѝ прїи́дꙋтъ на поравне́нїе и҆ въ раздѣле́нїе а҆ссѷрі́йско, и҆ гра́ди твоѝ тве́рдїи въ раздѣле́нїе ѿ тѵ́ра да́же до рѣкѝ сѵ́рскїѧ, и҆ ѿ мо́рѧ да́же до мо́рѧ, и҆ ѿ горы̀ да́же до горы̀, дні́е воды̀ и҆ молвы̀.
12 In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
13 И҆ бꙋ́детъ землѧ̀ въ па́гꙋбꙋ со живꙋ́щими на не́й, ѿ плодѡ́въ начина́нїй и҆́хъ.
13 Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
14 Пасѝ лю́ди твоѧ̑ жезло́мъ твои́мъ, ѻ҆́вцы наслѣ́дїѧ твоегѡ̀, вселѧ́ющыѧсѧ є҆ди̑ны въ дꙋбра́вѣ средѣ̀ карми́ла, попасꙋ́тъ васані́тїдꙋ и҆ галааді́тїдꙋ, ꙗ҆́коже дні́е вѣ́ка.
14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest. Let them feed in the middle of fertile pasture land, in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
15 И҆ по днє́мъ и҆схо́да твоегѡ̀ и҆з̾ є҆гѵ́пта ᲂу҆́зрите чꙋдє́снаѧ.
15 “As in the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.”
16 Оу҆́зрѧтъ ꙗ҆зы́цы и҆ ᲂу҆срамѧ́тсѧ ѿ всеѧ̀ крѣ́пости своеѧ̀, рꙋ́цѣ возложа́тъ на ᲂу҆ста̀ своѧ̑, и҆ ᲂу҆́ши и҆́хъ ѡ҆гло́хнꙋтъ,
16 The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
17 поли́жꙋтъ пе́рсть ꙗ҆́кѡ ѕмі́еве плѣ́жꙋще по землѝ, смѧтꙋ́тсѧ во ѡ҆блеже́нїи свое́мъ: ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ бз҃ѣ на́шемъ ᲂу҆жа́снꙋтсѧ и҆ ᲂу҆боѧ́тсѧ ѿ тебє̀.
17 They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling things of the earth, they will come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to Yahweh our God, and will be afraid because of you.
18 Кто̀ бг҃ъ ꙗ҆́коже ты̀, ѿе́млѧй беззакѡ́нїѧ и҆ ѡ҆ставлѧ́ѧй нечє́стїѧ ѡ҆ста́нкѡмъ наслѣ́дїѧ своегѡ̀; и҆ не ᲂу҆держа̀ гнѣ́ва своегѡ̀ во свидѣ́нїе, ꙗ҆́кѡ воли́тель млⷭ҇ти є҆́сть.
18 Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn’t retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
19 То́й ѡ҆брати́тъ и҆ ᲂу҆ще́дритъ ны̀, и҆ погрꙋзи́тъ непра̑вды на́шѧ и҆ вве́ржетъ въ глꙋбины̑ мѡрскі́ѧ всѧ̑ грѣхѝ на́шѧ,
19 He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot. You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 да́стъ и҆́стинꙋ і҆а́кѡвꙋ, (и҆) млⷭ҇ть а҆враа́мꙋ, ꙗ҆́коже клѧ́лсѧ є҆сѝ ѻ҆тцє́мъ на́шымъ во дни̑ пє́рвыѧ.
20 You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.

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).
"According to the days of thy coming out of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things, etc....In this Psalm, therefore, although the wonderful spirit of prophecy doth look into the future, yet it seemeth, as it were, to be merely detailing to the past.

Wherefore the prophet admonishes, saying, "Trust ye not in friends, have not hope in guides; yea, even of her that lieth in thy bosom beware, in respect of communicating aught to her:" and, "A man's enemies are the men that are in his own house." And this He said, preparing him that should receive the word to be above all.

for the godly man is perished out of the earth, and there is none that doeth right among men: and again, They are all gone out of the way, they are together became unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one: and again, Cursing and stealing, and adultery, and murder are poured out upon the land.
