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 Про́чее же, бра́тїе моѧ̑, ра́дꙋйтесѧ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ. Та̑ѧжде (бо) писа́ти ва́мъ, мнѣ̀ ᲂу҆́бѡ нелѣ́ностно, ва́мъ же тве́рдо.
1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not tiresome, but for you it is safe.
2 Блюди́тесѧ ѿ псѡ́въ, блюди́тесѧ ѿ ѕлы́хъ дѣ́лателей, блюди́тесѧ ѿ сѣче́нїѧ:
2 Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.
3 мы́ бо є҆смы̀ ѡ҆брѣ́занїе, и҆̀же дꙋ́хомъ бг҃ꙋ слꙋ́жимъ и҆ хва́лимсѧ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ, а҆ не въ пло́ти надѣ́емсѧ:
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;
4 и҆́бо и҆ а҆́зъ и҆мѣ́ю надѣ́ѧнїе та́кожде во пло́ти. А҆́ще кто̀ и҆́нъ мни́тъ надѣ́ѧтисѧ во пло́ти, а҆́зъ па́че,
4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:
5 ѡ҆брѣ́занъ ѻ҆смодне́внѡ, ѿ ро́да і҆и҃лева, колѣ́на венїамі́нова, є҆вре́инъ ѿ є҆врє́й, по зако́нꙋ фарїсе́й,
5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;
6 по ре́вности гони́хъ цр҃ковь бж҃їю, по пра́вдѣ зако́ннѣй бы́въ непоро́ченъ.
6 concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
7 Но ꙗ҆̀же мѝ бѧ́хꙋ приѡбрѣ́тєнїѧ, сїѧ̑ вмѣни́хъ хрⷭ҇та̀ ра́ди тщетꙋ̀.
7 However, I consider those things that were gain to me as a loss for Christ.
8 Но ᲂу҆̀бо вмѣнѧ́ю всѧ̑ тщетꙋ̀ бы́ти за превосходѧ́щее разꙋмѣ́нїе хрⷭ҇та̀ і҆и҃са гдⷭ҇а моегѡ̀, є҆гѡ́же ра́ди всѣ́хъ ѡ҆тщети́хсѧ, и҆ вмѣнѧ́ю всѧ̑ ᲂу҆ме́ты бы́ти, да хрⷭ҇та̀ приѡбрѧ́щꙋ
8 Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ
9 и҆ ѡ҆брѧ́щꙋсѧ въ не́мъ, не и҆мы́й моеѧ̀ пра́вды, ꙗ҆́же ѿ зако́на, но ꙗ҆́же вѣ́рою (і҆и҃съ) хрⷭ҇то́вою, сꙋ́щꙋю ѿ бг҃а пра́вдꙋ въ вѣ́рѣ:
9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith,
10 ꙗ҆́кѡ разꙋмѣ́ти є҆го̀, и҆ си́лꙋ воскрⷭ҇нїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ соѻбще́нїе стрⷭ҇те́й є҆гѡ̀, соѡбразꙋ́ѧсѧ см҃рти є҆гѡ̀,
10 that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,
11 а҆́ще ка́кѡ дости́гнꙋ въ воскрⷭ҇нїе ме́ртвыхъ.
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12 Не занѐ ᲂу҆жѐ достиго́хъ, и҆лѝ ᲂу҆жѐ соверши́хсѧ: гоню́ же, а҆́ще и҆ пости́гнꙋ, ѡ҆ не́мже и҆ постиже́нъ бы́хъ ѿ хрⷭ҇та̀ і҆и҃са.
12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
13 Бра́тїе, а҆́зъ себѐ не ᲂу҆̀ помышлѧ́ю дости́гша: є҆ди́но же, за̑днѧѧ ᲂу҆́бѡ забыва́ѧ, въ прє́днѧѧ же простира́ѧсѧ,
13 Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do: forgetting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before,
14 со ᲂу҆се́рдїемъ гоню̀, къ по́чести вы́шнѧгѡ зва́нїѧ бж҃їѧ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ.
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Є҆ли́цы ᲂу҆̀бо соверше́нни, сїѐ да мꙋ́дрствꙋимъ: и҆ є҆́же а҆́ще и҆́но что̀ мы́слите, и҆ сїѐ бг҃ъ ва́мъ ѿкры́етъ.
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.
16 Ѻ҆ба́че въ не́же достиго́хомъ, то́же да мꙋ́дрствꙋемъ и҆ тѣ́мже пра́виломъ жи́тельствꙋемъ.
16 Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let’s walk by the same rule. Let’s be of the same mind.
17 Подо́бни мѝ быва́йте, бра́тїе, и҆ смотрѧ́йте та́кѡ ходѧ́щыѧ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆́мате ѡ҆́бразъ на́съ.
17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
18 Мно́зи бо хо́дѧтъ, и҆̀хже мно́гажды глаго́лахъ ва́мъ, нн҃ѣ же и҆ пла́чѧ глаго́лю, врагѝ крⷭ҇та̀ хрⷭ҇то́ва:
18 For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, as the enemies of the cross of Christ,
19 и҆̀мже кончи́на поги́бель, и҆̀мже бо́гъ чре́во, и҆ сла́ва въ стꙋдѣ̀ и҆́хъ, и҆̀же земна̑ѧ мꙋ́дрствꙋютъ.
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
20 На́ше бо житїѐ на нб҃сѣ́хъ є҆́сть, ѿѻнꙋ́дꙋже и҆ сп҃си́телѧ жде́мъ, гдⷭ҇а (на́шего) і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀,
20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
21 и҆́же преѡбрази́тъ тѣ́ло смире́нїѧ на́шегѡ, ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́ти семꙋ̀ соѡбра́знꙋ тѣ́лꙋ сла́вы є҆гѡ̀, по дѣ́йствꙋ є҆́же возмога́ти є҆мꙋ̀ и҆ покори́ти себѣ̀ всѧ́чєскаѧ.
21 who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.

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).
Dejection and care, whenever they strain the soul beyond due measure, bereave it of its native force. And therefore Paul relieves the Philippians, who were in great despondency, and they were in despondency because they did not know how matters were with Paul; they were in despondency because they thought that it was already over with him, because of the …

Of which resurrection the apostle speaks in the Epistle to the Philippians: "Having been made conformable to His death, if by any means I might attain to the resurrection which is from the dead." In what other mortal flesh, therefore, can life be understood as being manifested, unless in that substance which is also put to death on account of …
We then were conversing alone very pleasantly; and, "forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before," we were seeking between ourselves in the presence of the Truth, which Thou art, of what nature the eternal life of the saints would be, which eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath entered into …

Yet they were at least ashamed when they were naked, but ye take a pride in it; "having," according to that saying of the apostle, "your glory in your shame." How then will thy wife thenceforward look upon thee, when thou art returned from such wickedness?

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord alway; again I will say, Rejoice: for your redemption hath drawn nigh, and the heavenly host of the Angels is waiting for your salvation.
