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.

PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 И҆ дана̀ мѝ бы́сть тро́сть подо́бна жезлꙋ̀, гл҃ѧ: воста́ни и҆ и҆змѣ́ри цр҃ковь бж҃їю и҆ ѻ҆лта́рь, и҆ кла́нѧющыѧсѧ въ не́й:
1 A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.
1 Καὶ ἐδόθη μοι κάλαμος ὅμοιος ῥάβδῳ, λέγων· ἔγειρε καὶ μέτρησον τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ τοὺς προσκυνοῦντας ἐν αὐτῷ·
2 а҆ дво́ръ сꙋ́щїй внꙋ́трь цр҃кве и҆знесѝ внѣꙋ́дꙋ, нижѐ и҆змѣ́ри є҆го̀, занѐ да́нъ бы́сть ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ: и҆ гра́дъ ст҃ы́й поперꙋ́тъ четы́редесѧть и҆ два̀ мцⷭ҇ы.
2 Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.
2 καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἔξωθεν τοῦ ναοῦ ἔκβαλε ἔξω καὶ μὴ αὐτὴν μετρήσῃς, ὅτι ἐδόθη τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ τὴν πόλιν τὴν ἁγίαν πατήσουσι μῆνας τεσσαράκοντα δύο.
3 И҆ да́мъ ѻ҆бѣ́ма свидѣ́телема мои́ма, и҆ прорица́ти бꙋ́дꙋтъ дні́й ты́сѧщꙋ двѣ́стѣ и҆ шестьдесѧ́тъ, ѡ҆болчє́на во вре́тище.
3 I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”
3 καὶ δώσω τοῖς δυσὶ μάρτυσί μου, καὶ προφητεύσουσιν ἡμέρας χιλίας διακοσίας ἑξήκοντα, περιβεβλημένοι σάκκους.
4 Сі́и сꙋ́ть двѣ̀ ма̑слицы и҆ два̀ свѣ̑щника пред̾ бг҃омъ землѝ стоѧ̑ща.
4 These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.
4 οὗτοί εἰσιν αἱ δύο ἐλαῖαι καὶ αἱ δύο λυχνίαι αἱ ἐνώπιον τοῦ Κυρίου τῆς γῆς ἑστῶσαι.
5 И҆ и҆́же и҆̀мъ непра́вдꙋ сотвори́тъ, ѻ҆́гнь и҆схо́дитъ и҆з̾ ᲂу҆́стъ и҆́хъ и҆ поѧ́стъ врагѝ и҆́хъ: и҆ и҆́же восхо́щетъ ѡ҆би́дѣти и҆̀хъ, семꙋ̀ подоба́етъ ᲂу҆бїе́нꙋ бы́ти.
5 If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
5 καὶ εἴ τις αὐτοὺς θέλει ἀδικῆσαι, πῦρ ἐκπορεύεται ἐκ τοῦ στόματος αὐτῶν καὶ κατεσθίει τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν· καὶ εἴ τις θέλει αὐτοὺς ἀδικῆσαι, οὕτω δεῖ αὐτὸν ἀποκτανθῆναι.
6 И҆ сі́и и҆́мꙋтъ ѡ҆́бласть затвори́ти не́бо, да не сни́детъ до́ждь (на зе́млю) во дни̑ прорица́нїѧ и҆́хъ, и҆ ѡ҆́бласть и҆́мꙋтъ на вода́хъ, ѡ҆браща́ти ѧ҆̀ въ кро́вь и҆ порази́ти зе́млю всѧ́кою ꙗ҆́звою, є҆ли́жды а҆́ще восхо́щꙋтъ.
6 These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
6 οὗτοι ἔχουσιν ἐξουσίαν τὸν οὐρανὸν κλεῖσαι, ἵνα μὴ ὑετὸς βρέχῃ τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς προφητείας αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξουσίαν ἔχουσιν ἐπὶ τῶν ὑδάτων στρέφειν αὐτὰ εἰς αἷμα καὶ πατάξαι τὴν γῆν ἐν πάσῃ πληγῇ, ὁσάκις ἐὰν θελήσωσι.
7 И҆ є҆гда̀ сконча́ютъ свидѣ́тельство своѐ, ѕвѣ́рь, и҆́же и҆схо́дитъ ѿ бе́здны, сотвори́тъ съ ни́ми бра́нь и҆ побѣди́тъ и҆̀хъ и҆ ᲂу҆бїе́тъ ѧ҆̀,
7 When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.
7 καὶ ὅταν τελέσωσι τὴν μαρτυρίαν αὐτῶν, τὸ θηρίον τὸ ἀναβαῖνον ἐκ τῆς ἀβύσσου ποιήσει μετ᾽ αὐτῶν πόλεμον καὶ νικήσει αὐτοὺς καὶ ἀποκτενεῖ αὐτούς.
8 и҆ трꙋ́пы и҆́хъ ѡ҆ста́витъ на сто́гнахъ гра́да вели́кагѡ, и҆́же нарица́етсѧ дꙋхо́внѣ содо́мъ и҆ є҆гѵ́петъ, и҆дѣ́же и҆ гдⷭ҇ь на́шъ ра́спѧтъ бы́сть.
8 Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
8 καὶ τὸ πτῶμα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῆς πλατείας τῆς πόλεως τῆς μεγάλης, ἥτις καλεῖται πνευματικῶς Σόδομα καὶ Αἴγυπτος, ὅπου καὶ ὁ Κύριος αὐτῶν ἐσταυρώθη.
9 И҆ зрѣ́ти и҆́мꙋтъ ѿ люді́й и҆ племе́нъ, и҆ ѿ ꙗ҆зы́къ и҆ колѣ́нъ, тѣлеса̀ и҆́хъ дни̑ трѝ и҆ по́лъ, и҆ трꙋ́пы и҆́хъ не ѡ҆ста́вѧтъ положи́ти во гробѣ́хъ.
9 From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
9 καὶ βλέπουσιν ἐκ τῶν λαῶν καὶ φυλῶν καὶ γλωσσῶν καὶ ἐθνῶν τὸ πτῶμα αὐτῶν ἡμέρας τρεῖς καὶ ἥμισυ, καὶ τὰ πτώματα αὐτῶν οὐκ ἀφήσουσι τεθῆναι εἰς μνῆμα.
10 И҆ живꙋ́щїи на землѝ возра́дꙋютсѧ и҆ возвеселѧ́тсѧ ѡ҆ ни́хъ, и҆ да́ры по́слютъ дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́ба сїѧ̑ прⷪ҇рѡ́ка мꙋ́чиста живꙋ́щыѧ на землѝ.
10 Those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
10 καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς χαίρουσιν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς, καὶ εὐφρανθήσονται καὶ δῶρα πέμψουσιν ἀλλήλοις, ὅτι οὗτοι οἱ δύο προφῆται ἐβασάνισαν τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
11 И҆ по трїе́хъ дне́хъ и҆ по́лъ, дꙋ́хъ живо́тенъ вни́детъ въ нѧ̀ ѿ бг҃а, и҆ ста́нꙋтъ (ѻ҆́ба) на нога́хъ свои́хъ: и҆ стра́хъ ве́лїй нападе́тъ на зрѧ́щихъ и҆̀хъ.
11 After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.
11 καὶ μετὰ τὰς τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ ἥμισυ, πνεῦμα ζωῆς ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς αὐτούς, καὶ ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν, καὶ φόβος μέγας ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τοὺς θεωροῦντας αὐτούς.
12 И҆ ᲂу҆слы́шатъ гла́съ ве́лїй съ небесѐ, гл҃ющь и҆̀мъ: взы́дита сѣ́мѡ. И҆ взыдо́ста на не́бо на ѡ҆́блацѣхъ, и҆ ви́дѣша ѧ҆̀ вразѝ и҆́хъ.
12 I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.
12 καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν μεγάλην ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ λέγουσαν αὐτοῖς· ἀνάβητε ὧδε. καὶ ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ, καὶ ἐθεώρησαν αὐτοὺς οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῶν.
13 И҆ въ ча́съ то́й трꙋ́съ бы́сть ве́лїй, и҆ десѧ́таѧ ча́сть гра́да падѐ, и҆ поги́бе трꙋ́сомъ и҆ме́нъ человѣ́ческихъ се́дмь ты́сѧщъ: и҆ про́чїи пристра́шни бы́ша и҆ да́ша сла́вꙋ бг҃ꙋ нбⷭ҇номꙋ.
13 In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
13 Καὶ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐγένετο σεισμὸς μέγας, καὶ τὸ δέκατον τῆς πόλεως ἔπεσε, καὶ ἀπεκτάνθησαν ἐν τῷ σεισμῷ ὀνόματα ἀνθρώπων χιλιάδες ἑπτά, καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ ἔμφοβοι ἐγένοντο καὶ ἔδωκαν δόξαν τῷ Θεῷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
14 Го́ре второ́е ѿи́де: сѐ, го́ре тре́тїе грѧде́тъ ско́рѡ.
14 The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly.
14 Ἡ οὐαὶ ἡ δευτέρα ἀπῆλθεν· ἡ οὐαὶ ἡ τρίτη ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται ταχύ.
15 И҆ седмы́й а҆́гг҃лъ вострꙋбѝ, и҆ бы́ша гла́си вели́цы на нб҃сѣ́хъ, глаго́люще: бы́сть црⷭ҇тво мі́ра гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ и҆ хрⷭ҇та̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ воцр҃и́тсѧ во вѣ́ки вѣкѡ́въ.
15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”
15 Καὶ ὁ ἕβδομος ἄγγελος ἐσάλπισε· καὶ ἐγένοντο φωναὶ μεγάλαι ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ λέγουσαι· ἐγένετο ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ κόσμου τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν καὶ τοῦ Χριστοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ βασιλεύσει εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.
16 И҆ два́десѧть и҆ четы́ри ста́рцы, пред̾ бг҃омъ сѣдѧ́щїи на прⷭ҇то́лѣхъ свои́хъ, падо́ша на ли́ца своѧ̑ и҆ поклони́шасѧ бг҃ꙋ,
16 The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,
16 καὶ οἱ εἴκοσι τέσσαρες πρεσβύτεροι οἱ ἐνώπιον [τοῦ θρόνου] τοῦ Θεοῦ, οἳ κάθηνται ἐπὶ τοὺς θρόνους αὐτῶν, ἔπεσαν ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ Θεῷ
17 глаго́люще: хва́лимъ тѧ̀, гдⷭ҇и бж҃е вседержи́телю, и҆́же сы́й и҆ бѣ̀ и҆ грѧды́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ прїѧ́лъ є҆сѝ си́лꙋ твою̀ вели́кꙋю и҆ воцр҃и́лсѧ є҆сѝ:
17 saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and reigned.
17 λέγοντες· εὐχαριστοῦμέν σοι, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ, ὁ ὢν καὶ ὁ ἦν [καὶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος], ὅτι εἴληφας τὴν δύναμίν σου τὴν μεγάλην καὶ ἐβασίλευσας,
18 и҆ ꙗ҆зы́цы прогнѣ́вашасѧ: и҆ прїи́де гнѣ́въ тво́й, и҆ вре́мѧ мє́ртвымъ сꙋ́дъ прїѧ́ти, и҆ да́ти мздꙋ̀ рабѡ́мъ твои̑мъ прⷪ҇ро́кѡмъ и҆ ст҃ы̑мъ и҆ боѧ́щымсѧ и҆́мене твоегѡ̀, ма̑лымъ и҆ вели̑кимъ, и҆ растли́ти посмра́ждшыѧ зе́млю.
18 The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
18 καὶ τὰ ἔθνη ὠργίσθησαν, καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ ὀργή σου καὶ ὁ καιρὸς τῶν ἐθνῶν κριθῆναι καὶ δοῦναι τὸν μισθὸν τοῖς δούλοις σου τοῖς προφήταις καὶ τοῖς ἁγίοις τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομά σου, τοῖς μικροῖς καὶ τοῖς μεγάλοις, καὶ διαφθεῖραι τοὺς διαφθείραντας τὴν γῆν.
19 И҆ ѿве́рзесѧ хра́мъ бж҃їй на нб҃сѝ, и҆ ꙗ҆ви́сѧ кївѡ́тъ завѣ́та є҆гѡ̀ въ хра́мѣ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ бы́ша блиста̑нїѧ и҆ гла́си, и҆ гро́ми и҆ трꙋ́съ, и҆ гра́дъ вели́къ.
19 God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
19 Καὶ ἠνοίγη ὁ ναὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ ὁ ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ, καὶ ὤφθη ἡ κιβωτὸς τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου ἐν τῷ ναῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐγένοντο ἀστραπαὶ καὶ φωναὶ καὶ βρονταὶ καὶ σεισμὸς καὶ χάλαζα μεγάλη.

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).
The altar, then, is in heaven (for towards that place are our prayers and oblations directed); the temple likewise [is there], as John says in the Apocalypse, "And the temple of God was opened:" the tabernacle also: "For, behold," He says, "the tabernacle of God, in which He will dwell with men." Chapter XIX.--Earthly things may be the type of …
