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 Во ѻ҆смы́й мцⷭъ, втора́гѡ лѣ́та, при да́рїи, бы́сть сло́во гдⷭне ко заха́рїи варахі́инꙋ, сы́нꙋ а҆ддѡ́вꙋ, прⷪ҇ро́кꙋ, гл҃ѧ:
1 EN el mes octavo, en el año segundo de Darío, fué palabra de Jehová á Zacarías profeta, hijo de Berechîas, hijo de Iddo, diciendo:
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
2 прогнѣ́васѧ гдⷭ҇ь на ѻ҆тцы̀ ва́шѧ гнѣ́вомъ ве́лїимъ,
2 Enojóse Jehová con ira contra vuestros padres.
2 “Yahweh was very displeased with your fathers.
3 и҆ рече́ши къ ни̑мъ: си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель: ѡ҆брати́тесѧ ко мнѣ̀, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ, и҆ ѡ҆бращꙋ́сѧ къ ва́мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь си́лъ.
3 Les dirás pues: Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Volveos á mí, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, y yo me volveré á vosotros, ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos.
3 Therefore tell them, Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Return to me,’ says Yahweh of Armies, ‘and I will return to you,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
4 И҆ не бꙋ́дите, ꙗ҆́коже ѻ҆тцы̀ ва́ши, и҆̀хже ѡ҆блича́хꙋ прⷪ҇ро́цы пре́жнїи, глаго́люще: си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель: ѿврати́тесѧ ѿ пꙋті́й ва́шихъ лꙋка́выхъ и҆ ѿ начина́нїй ва́шихъ ѕлы́хъ: и҆ не послꙋ́шаша и҆ не внѧ́ша послꙋ́шати менѐ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь (вседержи́тель).
4 No seáis como vuestros padres, á los cuales dieron voces los primeros profetas, diciendo: Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Volveos ahora de vuestros malos caminos, y de vuestras malas obras: y no atendieron, ni me escucharon, dice Jehová.
4 Don’t you be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: Yahweh of Armies says, ‘Return now from your evil ways and from your evil doings;’ but they didn’t hear nor listen to me, says Yahweh.
5 Ѻ҆тцы̀ ва́ши гдѣ̀ сꙋ́ть и҆ прⷪ҇ро́цы; є҆да̀ во вѣ́къ поживꙋ́тъ;
5 Vuestros padres, ¿dónde están? y los profetas ¿han de vivir para siempre?
5 Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
6 Ѻ҆ба́че словеса̀ моѧ̑ и҆ зако́ны моѧ̑ прїе́млете, є҆ли̑ка а҆́зъ заповѣ́даю въ дс҃ѣ мое́мъ рабѡ́мъ мои̑мъ прⷪ҇ро́кѡмъ, и҆̀же пости́гнꙋша ѻ҆тцє́въ ва́шихъ. И҆ ѿвѣща́ша и҆ рѣ́ша: ꙗ҆́коже ᲂу҆ста́ви гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель сотвори́ти на́мъ по пꙋтє́мъ на́шымъ и҆ по начина́нїємъ на́шымъ, та́кѡ сотворѝ на́мъ.
6 Empero mis palabras y mis ordenanzas que mandé á mis siervos los profetas, ¿no alcanzaron á vuestros padres? Por eso se volvieron ellos y dijeron: Como Jehová de los ejércitos pensó tratarnos conforme á nuestros caminos, y conforme á nuestras obras, así lo hizo con nosotros.
6 But my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, didn’t they overtake your fathers? “Then they repented and said, ‘Just as Yahweh of Armies determined to do to us, according to our ways and according to our practices, so he has dealt with us.’”
7 Въ два́десѧть четве́ртый первагѡна́десѧть мцⷭа, се́й є҆́сть мцⷭъ сава́тъ, во второ́е лѣ́то, при да́рїи, бы́сть сло́во гдⷭне ко заха́рїи варахі́инꙋ, сы́нꙋ а҆ддѡ́вꙋ, прⷪ҇ро́кꙋ, гл҃ѧ:
7 A los veinticuatro del mes undécimo, que es el mes de Sebath, en el año segundo de Darío, fué palabra de Jehová á Zacarías profeta, hijo de Berechîas, hijo de Iddo, diciendo:
7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
8 ви́дѣхъ но́щїю, и҆ сѐ, мꙋ́жъ всѣ́дъ на конѧ̀ ры́жа, и҆ се́й стоѧ́ше междꙋ̀ гора́ми ѡ҆сѣнѧ́ющими, и҆ за ни́мъ ко́ни ры́жы и҆ сѣ́ри, и҆ пе́стри и҆ бѣ́ли,
8 Vi de noche, y he aquí un varón que cabalgaba sobre un caballo bermejo, el cual estaba entre los mirtos que había en la hondura; y detrás de él había caballos bermejos, overos, y blancos.
8 “I had a vision in the night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in a ravine; and behind him there were red, brown, and white horses.
9 и҆ рѣ́хъ: что̀ сі́и, го́споди; И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ глаго́лѧй во мнѣ̀: а҆́зъ покажꙋ́ ти, что̀ сꙋ́ть сїѧ̑.
9 Entonces dije: ¿Qué son éstos, señor mío? Y díjome el ángel que hablaba conmigo: Yo te enseñaré qué son éstos.
9 Then I asked, ‘My lord, what are these?’” The angel who talked with me said to me, “I will show you what these are.”
10 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ мꙋ́жъ стоѧ́й междꙋ̀ гора́ми и҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀: сі́и сꙋ́ть, и҆̀хже посла̀ гдⷭ҇ь ѡ҆б̾итѝ зе́млю.
10 Y aquel varón que estaba entre los mirtos respondió, y dijo: Estos son los que Jehová ha enviado á recorrer la tierra.
10 The man who stood among the myrtle trees answered, “They are the ones Yahweh has sent to go back and forth through the earth.”
11 И҆ ѿвѣща́ша а҆́гг҃лꙋ гдⷭ҇ню стоѧ́щемꙋ междꙋ̀ гора́ми и҆ рѣ́ша: ѡ҆быдо́хомъ всю̀ зе́млю, и҆ сѐ, всѧ̀ землѧ̀ населе́на є҆́сть и҆ молчи́тъ.
11 Y ellos hablaron á aquel ángel de Jehová que estaba entre los mirtos, y dijeron: Hemos recorrido la tierra, y he aquí, toda la tierra está reposada y quieta.
11 They reported to Yahweh’s angel who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, “We have walked back and forth through the earth, and behold, all the earth is at rest and in peace.”
12 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ а҆́гг҃лъ гдⷭ҇ень и҆ речѐ: гдⷭ҇и вседержи́телю, доко́лѣ не и҆́маши поми́ловати і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма и҆ гра́ды і҆ꙋ́дѡвы, ꙗ҆̀же презрѣ́лъ є҆сѝ, сїѐ седмьдесѧ́тое лѣ́то;
12 Y respondió el ángel de Jehová, y dijo: Oh Jehová de los ejércitos, ¿hasta cuándo no tendrás piedad de Jerusalem, y de las ciudades de Judá, con las cuales has estado airado por espacio de setenta años?
12 Then Yahweh’s angel replied, “O Yahweh of Armies, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which you have had indignation these seventy years?”
13 И҆ ѿвѣща̀ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель а҆́гг҃лꙋ глаго́лющемꙋ во мнѣ̀ гл҃го́лы добры̑ и҆ словеса̀ ᲂу҆тѣ̑шна.
13 Y Jehová respondió buenas palabras, palabras consolatorias á aquel ángel que hablaba conmigo.
13 Yahweh answered the angel who talked with me with kind and comforting words.
14 И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ глаго́лѧй во мнѣ̀: возопі́й глаго́лѧ: си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель: ревнова́хъ по і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мꙋ и҆ сїѡ́нꙋ рве́нїемъ вели́кимъ,
14 Y díjome el ángel que hablaba conmigo: Clama diciendo: Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Celé á Jerusalem y á Sión con gran celo:
14 So the angel who talked with me said to me, “Proclaim, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 и҆ гнѣ́вомъ ве́лїимъ а҆́зъ гнѣ́ваюсѧ на ꙗ҆зы́ки напа́дающыѧ: занѐ а҆́зъ ᲂу҆́бѡ прогнѣ́вахсѧ ма́лѡ, ѻ҆ни́ же налего́ша во ѕла̑ѧ.
15 Y con grande enojo estoy airado contra las gentes que están reposadas; porque yo estaba enojado un poco, y ellos ayudaron para el mal.
15 I am very angry with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little displeased, but they added to the calamity.”
16 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь: ѡ҆бращꙋ́сѧ ко і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мꙋ щедро́тами, и҆ хра́мъ мо́й сози́ждетсѧ въ не́мъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель, и҆ мѣ́ра протѧ́гнетсѧ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ є҆щѐ.
16 Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová: Yo me he tornado á Jerusalem con miseraciones; en ella será edificada mi casa, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, y la plomada será tendida sobre Jerusalem.
16 Therefore Yahweh says: “I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy. My house shall be built in it,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and a line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.”’
17 И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ глаго́лѧй во мнѣ̀: є҆щѐ возопі́й глаго́лѧ: си́це гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь вседержи́тель: є҆щѐ прелїѧ́тисѧ и҆́мꙋтъ гра́ди благи́ми, и҆ поми́лꙋетъ гдⷭ҇ь є҆щѐ сїѡ́на и҆ и҆збере́тъ є҆щѐ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма.
17 Clama aún, diciendo: Así dice Jehová de los ejércitos: Aun serán ensanchadas mis ciudades por la abundancia del bien; y aun consolará Jehová á Sión, y escogerá todavía á Jerusalem.
17 “Proclaim further, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “My cities will again overflow with prosperity, and Yahweh will again comfort Zion, and will again choose Jerusalem.”’”
18 И҆ возведо́хъ ѻ҆́чи моѝ и҆ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ сѐ, четы́ри ро́зи,
18 Después alcé mis ojos, y miré, y he aquí cuatro cuernos.
18 I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, four horns.
19 и҆ рѣ́хъ ко а҆́гг҃лꙋ глаго́лющемꙋ во мнѣ̀: что̀ сꙋ́ть сїѧ̑, го́споди; И҆ речѐ ко мнѣ̀: сі́и ро́зи расточи́вшїи і҆ꙋ́дꙋ и҆ і҆и҃лѧ и҆ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма.
19 Y dije al ángel que hablaba conmigo: ¿Qué son éstos? Y respondióme: Estos son los cuernos que aventaron á Judá, á Israel, y á Jerusalem.
19 I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” He answered me, “These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
20 И҆ показа́ ми гдⷭ҇ь четы́ри древодѣ̑лѧ.
20 Mostróme luego Jehová cuatro carpinteros.
20 Yahweh showed me four craftsmen.
21 И҆ рѣ́хъ: что̀ сі́и грѧдꙋ́тъ сотвори́ти, (го́споди); И҆ речѐ: сі́и ро́зи расточи́вшїи і҆ꙋ́дꙋ, и҆ і҆и҃лѧ сокрꙋши́ша, и҆ никто́же ѿ ни́хъ воздви́же главы̀: и҆ и҆зыдо́ша сі́и поѡстри́ти ѧ҆̀ въ рꙋка́хъ свои́хъ четы́ри ро́зи, ꙗ҆зы́цы возносѧ́щїи ро́гъ на зе́млю гдⷭ҇ню, є҆́же расточи́ти ю҆̀.
21 Y yo dije: ¿Qué vienen éstos á hacer? Y respondióme, diciendo: Estos son los cuernos que aventaron á Judá, tanto que ninguno alzó su cabeza; mas éstos han venido para hacerlos temblar, para derribar los cuernos de las gentes, que alzaron el cuerno sobre la tierra de Judá para aventarla.
21 Then I asked, “What are these coming to do?” He said, “These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations that lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

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).
Turning herself she prays that God too would turn to her: as it is said, "Turn ye unto Me, and I will turn unto you, saith the Lord." Or is it to be understood according to that way of speaking, "Turn, O Lord," that is make me turn, since the soul in this her turning feels difficulty and toil?
