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 Сы́не, мои́хъ зако́нѡвъ не забыва́й, глаго́лы же моѧ̑ да соблюда́етъ твоѐ се́рдце:
1 HIJO mío, no te olvides de mi ley; y tu corazón guarde mis mandamientos:
2 долготꙋ́ бо житїѧ̀ и҆ лѣ̑та жи́зни и҆ ми́ръ приложа́тъ тебѣ̀.
2 Porque largura de días, y años de vida y paz te aumentarán.
3 Ми́лѡстыни и҆ вѣ́ра да не ѡ҆скꙋдѣва́ютъ тебѣ̀: ѡ҆бложи́ же ѧ҆̀ на твое́й вы́и и҆ напишѝ ѧ҆̀ на скрижа́ли се́рдца твоегѡ̀: и҆ ѡ҆брѧ́щеши блгⷣть.
3 Misericordia y verdad no te desamparen; átalas á tu cuello, escríbelas en la tabla de tu corazón:
4 И҆ промышлѧ́й дѡ́браѧ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ (бг҃омъ) и҆ человѣ́ки.
4 Y hallarás gracia y buena opinión en los ojos de Dios y de los hombres.
5 Бꙋ́ди ᲂу҆пова́ѧ всѣ́мъ се́рдцемъ на бг҃а, ѡ҆ твое́й же премꙋ́дрости не возноси́сѧ:
5 Fíate de Jehová de todo tu corazón, y no estribes en tu prudencia.
6 во всѣ́хъ пꙋте́хъ твои́хъ познава́й ю҆̀, да и҆справлѧ́етъ пꙋти̑ твоѧ̑.
6 Reconócelo en todos tus caminos, y él enderezará tus veredas.
7 Не бꙋ́ди мꙋ́дръ ѡ҆ себѣ̀: бо́йсѧ же бг҃а и҆ ᲂу҆клонѧ́йсѧ ѿ всѧ́кагѡ ѕла̀:
7 No seas sabio en tu opinión: teme á Jehová, y apártate del mal;
8 тогда̀ и҆сцѣле́нїе бꙋ́детъ тѣ́лꙋ твоемꙋ̀ и҆ ᲂу҆врачева́нїе косте́мъ твои̑мъ.
8 Porque será medicina á tu ombligo, y tuétano á tus huesos.
9 Чтѝ гдⷭ҇а ѿ пра́ведныхъ твои́хъ трꙋдѡ́въ и҆ нача́тки дава́й є҆мꙋ̀ ѿ твои́хъ плодѡ́въ пра́вды:
9 Honra á Jehová de tu sustancia, y de las primicias de todos tus frutos;
10 да и҆спо́лнѧтсѧ жи̑тницы твоѧ̑ мно́жествомъ пшени́цы, вїно́ же точи̑ла твоѧ̑ да и҆сточа́ютъ.
10 Y serán llenas tus trojes con abundancia, y tus lagares rebosarán de mosto.
11 Сы́не, не пренебрега́й наказа́нїѧ гдⷭ҇нѧ, нижѐ ѡ҆слабѣва́й ѿ негѡ̀ ѡ҆блича́емь:
11 No deseches, hijo mío, el castigo de Jehová; ni te fatigues de su corrección:
12 є҆го́же бо лю́битъ гдⷭ҇ь, наказꙋ́етъ, бїе́тъ же всѧ́каго сы́на, є҆го́же прїе́млетъ.
12 Porque al que ama castiga, como el padre al hijo á quien quiere.
13 Бл҃же́нъ человѣ́къ, и҆́же ѡ҆брѣ́те премꙋ́дрость, и҆ сме́ртенъ, и҆́же ᲂу҆вѣ́дѣ ра́зꙋмъ.
13 Bienaventurado el hombre que halla la sabiduría, y que obtiene la inteligencia:
14 Лꙋ́чше бо сїю̀ кꙋпова́ти, не́жели зла́та и҆ сребра̀ сокрѡ́вища:
14 Porque su mercadería es mejor que la mercadería de la plata, y sus frutos más que el oro fino.
15 честнѣ́йша же є҆́сть ка́менїй многоцѣ́нныхъ: не сопротивлѧ́етсѧ є҆́й ничто́же лꙋка́во, бл҃гозна́тна є҆́сть всѣ̑мъ приближа́ющымсѧ є҆́й: всѧ́ко же честно́е недосто́йно є҆ѧ̀ є҆́сть.
15 Más preciosa es que las piedras preciosas; y todo lo que puedes desear, no se puede comparar á ella.
16 Долгота́ бо житїѧ̀ и҆ лѣ̑та жи́зни въ десни́цѣ є҆ѧ̀, въ шꙋ́йцѣ же є҆ѧ̀ бога́тство и҆ сла́ва: ѿ ᲂу҆́стъ є҆ѧ̀ и҆схо́дитъ пра́вда, зако́нъ же и҆ ми́лость на ѧ҆зы́цѣ но́ситъ.
16 Largura de días está en su mano derecha; en su izquierda riquezas y honra.
17 Пꙋтїѐ є҆ѧ̀ пꙋтїѐ добрѝ, и҆ всѧ̑ стєзѝ є҆ѧ̀ ми̑рны.
17 Sus caminos son caminos deleitosos, y todas sus veredas paz.
18 Дре́во живота̀ є҆́сть всѣ̑мъ держа́щымсѧ є҆ѧ̀, и҆ воскланѧ́ющымсѧ на ню̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ на гдⷭ҇а, тверда̀.
18 Ella es árbol de vida á los que de ella asen: y bienaventurados son los que la mantienen.
19 Бг҃ъ премⷣростїю ѡ҆снова̀ зе́млю, ᲂу҆гото́ва же небеса̀ ра́зꙋмомъ:
19 Jehová con sabiduría fundó la tierra; afirmó los cielos con inteligencia.
20 въ чꙋ́вствѣ є҆гѡ̀ бє́здны разверзо́шасѧ, ѡ҆́блацы же и҆сточи́ша ро́сꙋ.
20 Con su ciencia se partieron los abismos, y destilan el rocío los cielos.
21 Сы́не, да не премине́ши, соблюди́ же мо́й совѣ́тъ и҆ мы́сль:
21 Hijo mío, no se aparten [estas cosas] de tus ojos; guarda la ley y el consejo;
22 да жива̀ бꙋ́детъ дꙋша̀ твоѧ̀, и҆ блгⷣть бꙋ́детъ на твое́й вы́и: (꙳бꙋ́детъ же и҆сцѣле́нїе пло́темъ твои̑мъ и҆ ᲂу҆врачева́нїе косте́мъ твои̑мъ:)
22 Y serán vida á tu alma, y gracia á tu cuello.
23 да хо́диши надѣ́ѧсѧ въ ми́рѣ во всѣ́хъ пꙋте́хъ твои́хъ, нога́ же твоѧ̀ не по́ткнетсѧ.
23 Entonces andarás por tu camino confiadamente, y tu pie no tropezará.
24 А҆́ще бо сѧ́деши, безбоѧ́зненъ бꙋ́деши, а҆́ще же поспи́ши, сла́достнѡ поспи́ши.
24 Cuando te acostares, no tendrás temor; antes te acostarás, y tu sueño será suave.
25 И҆ не ᲂу҆бои́шисѧ стра́ха наше́дшагѡ, нижѐ ᲂу҆стремле́нїѧ нечести́выхъ находѧ́щагѡ:
25 No tendrás temor de pavor repentino, ni de la ruina de los impíos cuando viniere:
26 гдⷭ҇ь бо бꙋ́детъ на всѣ́хъ пꙋте́хъ твои́хъ и҆ ᲂу҆тверди́тъ но́гꙋ твою̀, да не поползне́шисѧ.
26 Porque Jehová será tu confianza, y él preservará tu pie de ser preso.
27 Не ѿрецы́сѧ благотвори́ти тре́бꙋющемꙋ, є҆гда̀ и҆́мать рꙋка̀ твоѧ̀ помога́ти.
27 No detengas el bien de sus dueños, cuando tuvieres poder para hacerlo.
28 Не рцы̀: ѿше́дъ возврати́сѧ, и҆ заꙋ́тра да́мъ, си́льнꙋ тѝ сꙋ́щꙋ благотвори́ти: не вѣ́си бо, что̀ породи́тъ де́нь находѧ́й.
28 No digas á tu prójimo: Ve, y vuelve, y mañana [te] daré; cuando tienes contigo [qué darle].
29 Не соплета́й на дрꙋ́га твоего̀ ѕла̀, прише́льца сꙋ́ща и҆ ᲂу҆пова́юща на тѧ̀.
29 No intentes mal contra tu prójimo, estando él confiado de ti.
30 Не враждꙋ́й на человѣ́ка тꙋ́не, да не что̀ на тѧ̀ содѣ́етъ ѕло́е.
30 No pleitees con alguno sin razón, si él no te ha hecho agravio.
31 Не стѧжѝ ѕлы́хъ мꙋже́й поноше́нїѧ, ни возревнꙋ́й пꙋтє́мъ и҆́хъ.
31 No envidies al hombre injusto, ni escojas alguno de sus caminos.
32 Нечи́стъ бо пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ всѧ́къ законопрестꙋ́пникъ и҆ съ првⷣными не сочетава́етсѧ.
32 Porque el perverso es abominado de Jehová: mas su secreto es con los rectos.
33 Клѧ́тва гдⷭ҇нѧ въ домѣ́хъ нечести́выхъ, дворы́ же првⷣныхъ блгⷭ҇влѧ́ютсѧ.
33 La maldición de Jehová está en la casa del impío; mas él bendecirá la morada de los justos.
34 Гдⷭ҇ь гѡ́рдымъ проти́витсѧ, смирє́ннымъ же дае́тъ блгⷣть.
34 Ciertamente él escarnecerá á los escarnecedores, y á los humildes dará gracia.
35 Сла́вꙋ премꙋ́дрїи наслѣ́дѧтъ, нечести́вїи же вознесо́ша безче́стїе.
35 Los sabios heredarán honra: mas los necios sostendrán ignominia.

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).
"For God," saith [the Scripture], "resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble." Let us cleave, then, to those to whom grace has been given by God.
By His knowledge the depths burst forth, and the clouds dropped down the dew." And again: "The Lord created me the beginning of His ways in His work: He set me up from everlasting, in the beginning, before He made the earth, before He established the depths, and before the fountains of waters gushed forth; before the mountains were made …
For Thou hast said unto man, "Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;" and desire not to seem wise, because, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools." But I had now found the goodly pearl, which, selling all that I had, I ought to have bought; and I hesitated.

For thus saith the holy Word: "The Lord hath severely chastened me, yet hath not given me over to death." "For whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth." "The righteous," saith it, "shall chasten me in mercy, and reprove me; but let not the oil of sinners make fat my head." And again he …
So that the tree of life would seem to have been in the terrestrial Paradise what the wisdom of God is in the spiritual, of which it is written, "She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her."
