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 по се́мъ ви́дѣхъ четы́ри а҆́гг҃лы стоѧ́щыѧ на четы́рехъ ᲂу҆́глѣхъ землѝ, держа́щыѧ четы́ри вѣ́тры зє́мскїѧ, да не ды́шетъ вѣ́тръ на зе́млю, ни на мо́ре, ни на всѧ́ко дре́во.
1 After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind would blow on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.
1 Καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο εἶδον τέσσαρας ἀγγέλους ἑστῶτας ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας γωνίας τῆς γῆς, κρατοῦντας τοὺς τέσσαρας ἀνέμους τῆς γῆς, ἵνα μὴ πνέῃ ἄνεμος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς μήτε ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης μήτε ἐπὶ πᾶν δένδρον.
2 И҆ ви́дѣхъ и҆́наго а҆́гг҃ла восходѧ́ща ѿ восхо́да со́лнца, и҆мꙋ́ща печа́ть бг҃а жива́гѡ. И҆ возопѝ гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ къ четы́ремъ а҆́гг҃лѡмъ, и҆́мже дано̀ бы́сть вреди́ти зе́млю и҆ мо́ре, глаго́лѧ:
2 I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea,
2 καὶ εἶδον ἄλλον ἄγγελον ἀναβαίνοντα ἀπὸ ἀνατολῆς ἡλίου, ἔχοντα σφραγῖδα Θεοῦ ζῶντος, καὶ ἔκραξε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ τοῖς τέσσαρσιν ἀγγέλοις, οἷς ἐδόθη αὐτοῖς ἀδικῆσαι τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
3 не вреди́те ни землѝ, ни мо́рѧ, ни древе́съ, до́ндеже запечатлѣ́емъ рабы̑ бг҃а на́шегѡ на челѣ́хъ и҆́хъ.
3 saying, “Don’t harm the earth, the sea, or the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!”
3 λέγων· μὴ ἀδικήσητε τὴν γῆν μήτε τὴν θάλασσαν μήτε τὰ δένδρα, ἄχρις οὗ σφραγίσωμεν τοὺς δούλους τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐπὶ τῶν μετώπων αὐτῶν.
4 И҆ слы́шахъ число̀ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: сто̀ четы́редесѧть четы́ри ты́сѧщи запечатлѣ́нныхъ ѿ всѧ́кагѡ колѣ́на сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ.
4 I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
4 Καὶ ἤκουσα τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῶν ἐσφραγισμένων· ἑκατὸν τεσσαράκοντα τέσσαρες χιλιάδες ἐσφραγισμένοι ἐκ πάσης φυλῆς υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ·
5 Ѿ колѣ́на і҆ꙋ́дова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на рꙋві́мова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на га́дова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ:

6 ѿ колѣ́на а҆си́рова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на нефѳалі́млѧ двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на манассі́ина двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ:

6 ἐκ φυλῆς Ἀσὴρ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Νεφθαλεὶμ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Μανασσῆ δώδεκα χιλιάδες,
7 ѿ колѣ́на сѷмеѡ́нова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на леѵі́ина двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на і҆ссаха́рова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ:
7 of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,
7 ἐκ φυλῆς Συμεὼν δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Λευῒ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Ἰσσάχαρ δώδεκα χιλιάδες,
8 ѿ колѣ́на завꙋлѡ́нѧ двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на і҆ѡ́сифова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: ѿ колѣ́на венїамі́нова двана́десѧть ты́сѧщъ запечатлѣ́нныхъ.
8 of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, and of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed.
8 ἐκ φυλῆς Ζαβουλὼν δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Ἰωσὴφ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Βενιαμὶν δώδεκα χιλιάδες ἐσφραγισμένοι.
9 По си́хъ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ сѐ, наро́дъ мно́гъ, є҆го́же и҆счестѝ никто́же мо́жетъ, ѿ всѧ́кагѡ ꙗ҆зы́ка и҆ колѣ́на, и҆ люді́й и҆ племе́нъ, стоѧ́ще пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ и҆ пред̾ а҆́гнцемъ, ѡ҆блече́ны въ ри̑зы бѣлы̑, и҆ фі́нїцы въ рꙋка́хъ и҆́хъ.
9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could count, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
9 Μετὰ ταῦτα εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὄχλος πολύς, ὃν ἀριθμῆσαι αὐτὸν οὐδεὶς ἐδύνατο, ἐκ παντὸς ἔθνους καὶ φυλῶν καὶ λαῶν καὶ γλωσσῶν, ἑστῶτας ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου καὶ ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀρνίου, περιβεβλημένους στολὰς λευκάς, καὶ φοίνικες ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν·
10 И҆ возопи́ша гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ, глаго́люще: спⷭ҇нїе сѣдѧ́щемꙋ на прⷭ҇то́лѣ бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ и҆ а҆́гнцꙋ.
10 They cried with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
10 καὶ κράζουσι φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγοντες· ἡ σωτηρία τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῷ ἀρνίῳ.
11 И҆ всѝ а҆́гг҃ли стоѧ́хꙋ ѡ҆́крестъ прⷭ҇то́ла и҆ ста́рєцъ и҆ четы́рехъ живо́тныхъ: и҆ падо́ша на лицы̀ пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ и҆ поклони́шасѧ бг҃ꙋ,
11 All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshiped God,
11 καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι εἱστήκεισαν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ τῶν τεσσάρων ζῴων, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ Θεῷ
12 глаго́люще: а҆ми́нь: блгⷭ҇ве́нїе и҆ сла́ва, и҆ премⷣрость и҆ хвала̀, и҆ чтⷭ҇ь и҆ си́ла и҆ крѣ́пость бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ во вѣ́ки вѣкѡ́въ. А҆ми́нь.
12 saying, “Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
12 λέγοντες· ἀμήν· ἡ εὐλογία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ἡ σοφία καὶ ἡ εὐχαριστία καὶ ἡ τιμὴ καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ ἰσχὺς τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.
13 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ є҆ди́нъ ѿ ста́рєцъ, глаго́лѧ мѝ: сі́и ѡ҆блече́ннїи въ ри̑зы бѣ̑лыѧ кто̀ сꙋ́ть и҆ ѿкꙋ́дꙋ прїидо́ша;
13 One of the elders answered, saying to me, “These who are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?”
13 Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη εἷς ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων λέγων μοι· οὗτοι οἱ περιβεβλημένοι τὰς στολὰς τὰς λευκὰς τίνες εἰσὶ καὶ πόθεν ἦλθον;
14 И҆ рѣ́хъ є҆мꙋ̀: го́споди, ты̀ вѣ́си. И҆ рече́ ми: сі́и сꙋ́ть, и҆̀же прїидо́ша ѿ ско́рби вели́кїѧ, и҆ и҆спра́ша ри̑зы своѧ̑, и҆ ᲂу҆бѣли́ша ри̑зы своѧ̑ въ кро́ви а҆́гнчи:
14 I told him, “My lord, you know.” He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great suffering. They washed their robes and made them white in the Lamb’s blood.
14 καὶ εἴρηκα αὐτῷ· κύριέ μου, σὺ οἶδας. καὶ εἶπέ μοι· οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ ἐρχόμενοι ἐκ τῆς θλίψεως τῆς μεγάλης, καὶ ἔπλυναν τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐλεύκαναν αὐτὰς ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ ἀρνίου.
15 сегѡ̀ ра́ди сꙋ́ть пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ бж҃їимъ и҆ слꙋ́жатъ є҆мꙋ̀ де́нь и҆ но́щь въ цр҃кви є҆гѡ̀, и҆ сѣдѧ́й на прⷭ҇то́лѣ всели́тсѧ въ ни́хъ:
15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.
15 διὰ τοῦτό εἰσιν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ λατρεύουσιν αὐτῷ ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτὸς ἐν τῷ ναῷ αὐτοῦ. καὶ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου σκηνώσει ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς.
16 не вза́лчꙋтъ ктомꙋ̀, нижѐ вжа́ждꙋтъ, не и҆́мать же па́сти на ни́хъ со́лнце, нижѐ всѧ́къ зно́й:
16 They will never be hungry or thirsty any more. The sun won’t beat on them, nor any heat;
16 οὐ πεινάσουσιν ἔτι οὐδὲ διψήσουσιν ἔτι, οὐδ᾽ οὐ μὴ πέσῃ ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς ὁ ἥλιος οὐδὲ πᾶν καῦμα,
17 ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́гнецъ, и҆́же посредѣ̀ прⷭ҇то́ла, ᲂу҆пасе́тъ ѧ҆̀ и҆ наста́витъ и҆̀хъ на живѡ́тныѧ и҆сто́чники во́дъ, и҆ ѿи́метъ бг҃ъ всѧ́кꙋ сле́зꙋ ѿ ѻ҆́чїю и҆́хъ.
17 for the Lamb who is in the middle of the throne shepherds them and leads them to springs of life-giving waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
17 ὅτι τὸ ἀρνίον τὸ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θρόνου ποιμαίνει αὐτούς, καὶ ὁδηγήσει αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ ζωῆς πηγὰς ὑδάτων, καὶ ἐξαλείψει ὁ Θεὸς πᾶν δάκρυον ἐκ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν.

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).
… which the Church is a sojourner among aliens); or when multiplied into themselves, as ten into ten gives one hundred, and twelve into twelve gives one hundred and forty-four, which last number is used in the Apocalypse to signify the whole body of the saints. Hence it appears that it is not merely questions about times that are to be …

The Apocalypse hath this written; "After this I beheld of all languages, and nations, and tribes, a great multitude, which no man can number, coming with white robes and palms." This is the mass of the saints.
