PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Что̀ ᲂу҆̀бо рече́мъ; пребꙋ́демъ ли во грѣсѣ̀, да блгⷣть преꙋмно́житсѧ; Да не бꙋ́детъ.
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
1 Τί οὖν ἐροῦμεν; ἐπιμενοῦμεν τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ ἵνα ἡ χάρις πλεονάσῃ;
2 И҆̀же бо ᲂу҆мро́хомъ грѣхꙋ̀, ка́кѡ па́ки ѡ҆живе́мъ ѡ҆ не́мъ;
2 May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
2 μὴ γένοιτο. οἵτινες ἀπεθάνομεν τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ, πῶς ἔτι ζήσομεν ἐν αὐτῇ;
3 И҆лѝ не разꙋмѣ́ете, ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆ли́цы во хрⷭ҇та̀ і҆и҃са крести́хомсѧ, въ см҃рть є҆гѡ̀ крести́хомсѧ;
3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
3 ἢ ἀγνοεῖτε ὅτι ὅσοι ἐβαπτίσθημεν εἰς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν, εἰς τὸν θάνατον αὐτοῦ ἐβαπτίσθημεν;
4 Спогребо́хомсѧ ᲂу҆̀бо є҆мꙋ̀ кр҃ще́нїемъ въ сме́рть, да ꙗ҆́коже воста̀ хрⷭ҇то́съ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ сла́вою ѻ҆́ч҃ею, та́кѡ и҆ мы̀ во ѡ҆бновле́нїи жи́зни ходи́ти на́чнемъ.
4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
4 συνετάφημεν οὖν αὐτῷ διὰ τοῦ βαπτίσματος εἰς τὸν θάνατον, ἵνα ὥσπερ ἠγέρθη Χριστὸς ἐκ νεκρῶν διὰ τῆς δόξης τοῦ πατρός, οὕτω καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐν καινότητι ζωῆς περιπατήσωμεν.
5 А҆́ще бо соѡбра́зни бы́хомъ подо́бїю см҃рти є҆гѡ̀, то и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїю бꙋ́демъ,
5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
5 εἰ γὰρ σύμφυτοι γεγόναμεν τῷ ὁμοιώματι τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ, ἀλλὰ καὶ τῆς ἀναστάσεως ἐσόμεθα,
6 сїѐ вѣ́дѧще, ꙗ҆́кѡ ве́тхїи на́шъ человѣ́къ съ ни́мъ распѧ́тсѧ, да ᲂу҆праздни́тсѧ тѣ́ло грѣхо́вное, ꙗ҆́кѡ ктомꙋ̀ не рабо́тати на́мъ грѣхꙋ̀:
6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
6 τοῦτο γινώσκοντες, ὅτι ὁ παλαιὸς ἡμῶν ἄνθρωπος συνεσταυρώθη ἵνα καταργηθῇ τὸ σῶμα τῆς ἁμαρτίας, τοῦ μηκέτι δουλεύειν ἡμᾶς τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ·
7 ᲂу҆ме́рый бо свободи́сѧ ѿ грѣха̀.
7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.
7 ὁ γὰρ ἀποθανὼν δεδικαίωται ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας.
8 А҆́ще же ᲂу҆мро́хомъ со хрⷭ҇то́мъ, вѣ́рꙋемъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ жи́ви бꙋ́демъ съ ни́мъ,
8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,
8 εἰ δὲ ἀπεθάνομεν σὺν Χριστῷ, πιστεύομεν ὅτι καὶ συζήσομεν αὐτῷ,
9 вѣ́дѧще, ꙗ҆́кѡ хрⷭ҇то́съ воста̀ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ, ктомꙋ̀ ᲂу҆жѐ не ᲂу҆мира́етъ: сме́рть и҆́мъ ктомꙋ̀ не ѡ҆блада́етъ.
9 knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
9 εἰδότες ὅτι Χριστὸς ἐγερθεὶς ἐκ νεκρῶν οὐκέτι ἀποθνήσκει, θάνατος αὐτοῦ οὐκέτι κυριεύει.
10 Є҆́же бо ᲂу҆́мре, грѣхꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́мре є҆ди́ною: а҆ є҆́же живе́тъ, бг҃ови живе́тъ.
10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
10 ὃ γὰρ ἀπέθανε, τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ ἀπέθανεν ἐφάπαξ, ὃ δὲ ζῇ, ζῇ τῷ Θεῷ.
11 Та́кожде и҆ вы̀ помышлѧ́йте себѐ ме́ртвыхъ ᲂу҆́бѡ бы́ти грѣхꙋ̀, живы́хъ же бг҃ови, ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ гдⷭ҇ѣ на́шемъ.
11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
11 οὕτω καὶ ὑμεῖς λογίζεσθε ἑαυτοὺς νεκροὺς μὲν εἶναι τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ, ζῶντας δὲ τῷ Θεῷ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.
12 Да не ца́рствꙋетъ ᲂу҆̀бо грѣ́хъ въ ме́ртвеннѣмъ ва́шемъ тѣ́лѣ, во є҆́же послꙋ́шати є҆гѡ̀ въ по́хотехъ є҆гѡ̀:
12 Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
12 Μὴ οὖν βασιλευέτω ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐν τῷ θνητῷ ὑμῶν σώματι εἰς τὸ ὑπακούειν αὐτῇ ἐν ταῖς ἐπιθυμίαις αὐτοῦ,
13 нижѐ представлѧ́йте ᲂу҆́ды ва́шѧ ѻ҆рꙋ̑жїѧ непра́вды грѣхꙋ̀: но представлѧ́йте себѐ бг҃ови ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ живы́хъ, и҆ ᲂу҆́ды ва́шѧ ѻ҆рꙋ̑жїѧ пра́вды бг҃ови.
13 Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
13 μηδὲ παριστάνετε τὰ μέλη ὑμῶν ὅπλα ἀδικίας τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ, ἀλλὰ παραστήσατε ἑαυτοὺς τῷ Θεῷ ὡς ἐκ νεκρῶν ζῶντας καὶ τὰ μέλη ὑμῶν ὅπλα δικαιοσύνης τῷ Θεῷ.
14 Грѣ́хъ бо ва́ми да не ѡ҆блада́етъ: нѣ́сте бо под̾ зако́номъ, но под̾ блгⷣтїю.
14 For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
14 ἁμαρτία γὰρ ὑμῶν οὐ κυριεύσει· οὐ γάρ ἐστε ὑπὸ νόμον, ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὸ χάριν.
15 Что̀ ᲂу҆̀бо; согрѣши́мъ ли, занѐ нѣ́смы под̾ зако́номъ, но под̾ блгⷣтїю; Да не бꙋ́детъ.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
15 Τί οὖν; ἁμαρτήσομεν ὅτι οὐκ ἐσμὲν ὑπὸ νόμον, ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὸ χάριν; μὴ γένοιτο.
16 Не вѣ́сте ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆мꙋ́же представлѧ́ете себѐ рабы̑ въ послꙋша́нїе, рабѝ є҆стѐ, є҆гѡ́же послꙋ́шаете, и҆лѝ грѣха̀ въ сме́рть, и҆лѝ послꙋша́нїѧ въ пра́вдꙋ;
16 Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
16 οὐκ οἴδατε ὅτι ᾧ παριστάνετε ἑαυτοὺς δούλους εἰς ὑπακοήν, δοῦλοί ἐστε ᾧ ὑπακούετε, ἤτοι ἁμαρτίας εἰς θάνατον ἢ ὑπακοῆς εἰς δικαιοσύνην;
17 Благодари́мъ ᲂу҆̀бо бг҃а, ꙗ҆́кѡ бѣ́сте рабѝ грѣхꙋ̀, послꙋ́шасте же ѿ се́рдца, во́ньже и҆ преда́стесѧ ѡ҆́бразъ ᲂу҆че́нїѧ.
17 But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
17 χάρις δὲ τῷ Θεῷ ὅτι ἦτε δοῦλοι τῆς ἁμαρτίας, ὑπηκούσατε δὲ ἐκ καρδίας εἰς ὃν παρεδόθητε τύπον διδαχῆς,
18 Свобо́ждшесѧ же ѿ грѣха̀, порабо́тистесѧ пра́вдѣ.
18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
18 ἐλευθερωθέντες δὲ ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ἐδουλώθητε τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ.
19 Человѣ́ческо глаго́лю, за не́мощь пло́ти ва́шеѧ. Ꙗ҆́коже бо предста́висте ᲂу҆́ды ва́шѧ рабы̑ нечистотѣ̀ и҆ беззако́нїю въ беззако́нїе, та́кѡ нн҃ѣ предста́вите ᲂу҆́ды ва́шѧ рабы̑ пра́вдѣ во ст҃ы́ню.
19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
19 ἀνθρώπινον λέγω διὰ τὴν ἀσθένειαν τῆς σαρκὸς ὑμῶν. ὥσπερ γὰρ παρεστήσατε τὰ μέλη ὑμῶν δοῦλα τῇ ἀκαθαρσίᾳ καὶ τῇ ἀνομίᾳ εἰς τὴν ἀνομίαν, οὕτω νῦν παραστήσατε τὰ μέλη ὑμῶν δοῦλα τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ εἰς ἁγιασμόν.
20 Є҆гда́ бо рабѝ бѣ́сте грѣха̀, свобо́дни бѣ́сте ѿ пра́вды.
20 For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
20 ὅτε γὰρ δοῦλοι ἦτε τῆς ἁμαρτίας, ἐλεύθεροι ἦτε τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ.
21 Кі́й ᲂу҆̀бо тогда̀ и҆мѣ́сте пло́дъ; Ѡ҆ ни́хже нн҃ѣ стыдите́сѧ, кончи́на бо ѻ҆́нѣхъ, сме́рть.
21 What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
21 τίνα οὖν καρπὸν εἴχετε τότε ἐφ᾽ οἷς νῦν ἐπαισχύνεσθε; τὸ γὰρ τέλος ἐκείνων θάνατος.
22 Нн҃ѣ же свобо́ждшесѧ ѿ грѣха̀, порабо́щшесѧ же бг҃ови, и҆́мате пло́дъ ва́шъ во ст҃ы́ню, кончи́нꙋ же жи́знь вѣ́чнꙋю.
22 But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.
22 νυνὶ δὲ ἐλευθερωθέντες ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας δουλωθέντες δὲ τῷ Θεῷ ἔχετε τὸν καρπὸν ὑμῶν εἰς ἁγιασμόν, τὸ δὲ τέλος ζωὴν αἰώνιον.
23 Ѡ҆бро́цы бо грѣха̀ сме́рть: дарова́нїе же бж҃їе живо́тъ вѣ́чный ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ гдⷭ҇ѣ на́шемъ.
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
23 τὰ γὰρ ὀψώνια τῆς ἁμαρτίας θάνατος, τὸ δὲ χάρισμα τοῦ Θεοῦ ζωὴ αἰώνιος ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.

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).

  1. Commentary 6:5 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Romans (Homily XI)

    What I had before occasion to remark, that I mention here too, that he continually digresseth into exhortation, without making any twofold division as he does in the other Epistles, and setting apart the former portion for doctrines, and the latter for the care of moral instruction.
