PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 О, если бы вы несколько были снисходительны к моему неразумию! Но вы и снисходите ко мне.
1 I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
1 Ὄφελον ἀνείχεσθέ μου μικρὸν τῇ ἀφροσύνῃ· ἀλλὰ καὶ ἀνέχεσθέ μου·
2 Ибо я ревную о вас ревностью Божиею; потому что я обручил вас единому мужу, чтобы представить Христу чистою девою.
2 For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
2 ζηλῶ γὰρ ὑμᾶς Θεοῦ ζήλῳ· ἡρμοσάμην γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἑνὶ ἀνδρί, παρθένον ἁγνὴν παραστῆσαι τῷ Χριστῷ·
3 Но боюсь, чтобы, как змий хитростью своею прельстил Еву, так и ваши умы не повредились, уклонившись от простоты во Христе.
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
3 φοβοῦμαι δὲ μήπως, ὡς ὁ ὄφις Εὔαν ἐξηπάτησεν ἐν τῇ πανουργίᾳ αὐτοῦ, οὕτω φθαρῇ τὰ νοήματα ὑμῶν ἀπὸ τῆς ἁπλότητος τῆς εἰς τὸν Χριστόν.
4 Ибо если бы кто, придя, начал проповедывать другого Иисуса, которого мы не проповедывали, или если бы вы получили иного Духа, которого не получили, или иное благовестие, которого не принимали, — то вы были бы очень снисходительны к тому.
4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.
4 εἰ μὲν γὰρ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἄλλον Ἰησοῦν κηρύσσει ὃν οὐκ ἐκηρύξαμεν, ἢ πνεῦμα ἕτερον λαμβάνετε ὃ οὐκ ἐλάβετε, ἢ εὐαγγέλιον ἕτερον ὃ οὐκ ἐδέξασθε, καλῶς ἀνείχεσθε.
5 Но я думаю, что у меня ни в чем нет недостатка против высших Апостолов:
5 For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
5 λογίζομαι γὰρ μηδὲν ὑστερηκέναι τῶν ὑπερλίαν ἀποστόλων.
6 хотя я и невежда в слове, но не в познании. Впрочем мы во всем совершенно известны вам.
6 But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
6 εἰ δὲ καὶ ἰδιώτης τῷ λόγῳ, ἀλλ᾽ οὐ τῇ γνώσει, ἀλλ᾽ ἐν παντὶ φανερωθέντες ἐν πᾶσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς.
7 Согрешил ли я тем, что унижал себя, чтобы возвысить вас, потому что безмездно проповедывал вам Евангелие Божие?
7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?
7 Ἢ ἁμαρτίαν ἐποίησα ἐμαυτὸν ταπεινῶν ἵνα ὑμεῖς ὑψωθῆτε, ὅτι δωρεὰν τὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ εὐαγγέλιον εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν;
8 Другим церквам я причинял издержки, получая от них содержание для служения вам; и, будучи у вас, хотя терпел недостаток, никому не докучал,
8 I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
8 ἄλλας ἐκκλησίας ἐσύλησα λαβὼν ὀψώνιον πρὸς τὴν ὑμῶν διακονίαν, καὶ παρὼν πρὸς ὑμᾶς καὶ ὑστερηθεὶς οὐ κατενάρκησα οὐδενός·
9 ибо недостаток мой восполнили братия, пришедшие из Македонии; да и во всем я старался и постараюсь не быть вам в тягость.
9 When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
9 τὸ γὰρ ὑστέρημά μου προσανεπλήρωσαν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἐλθόντες ἀπὸ Μακεδονίας· καὶ ἐν παντὶ ἀβαρῆ ὑμῖν ἐμαυτὸν ἐτήρησα καὶ τηρήσω.
10 По истине Христовой во мне скажу, что похвала сия не отнимется у меня в странах Ахаии.
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
10 ἔστιν ἀλήθεια Χριστοῦ ἐν ἐμοὶ ὅτι ἡ καύχησις αὕτη οὐ φραγήσεται εἰς ἐμὲ ἐν τοῖς κλίμασι τῆς Ἀχαΐας.
11 Почему же так поступаю? Потому ли, что не люблю вас? Богу известно! Но как поступаю, так и буду поступать,
11 Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows.
11 διατί; ὅτι οὐκ ἀγαπῶ ὑμᾶς; ὁ Θεὸς οἶδεν·
12 чтобы не дать повода ищущим повода, дабы они, чем хвалятся, в том оказались такими же, как и мы.
12 But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.
12 ὃ δὲ ποιῶ, καὶ ποιήσω, ἵνα ἐκκόψω τὴν ἀφορμὴν τῶν θελόντων ἀφορμήν, ἵνα ἐν ᾧ καυχῶνται εὑρεθῶσι καθὼς καὶ ἡμεῖς.
13 Ибо таковые лжеапостолы, лукавые делатели, принимают вид Апостолов Христовых.
13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles.
13 οἱ γὰρ τοιοῦτοι ψευδαπόστολοι, ἐργάται δόλιοι, μετασχηματιζόμενοι εἰς ἀποστόλους Χριστοῦ.
14 И неудивительно: потому что сам сатана принимает вид Ангела света,
14 And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
14 καὶ οὐ θαυμαστόν· αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁ σατανᾶς μετασχηματίζεται εἰς ἄγγελον φωτός.
15 а потому не великое дело, если и служители его принимают вид служителей правды; но конец их будет по делам их.
15 It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
15 οὐ μέγα οὖν εἰ καὶ οἱ διάκονοι αὐτοῦ μετασχηματίζονται ὡς διάκονοι δικαιοσύνης, ὧν τὸ τέλος ἔσται κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν.
16 Еще скажу: не почти кто—нибудь меня неразумным; а если не так, то примите меня, хотя как неразумного, чтобы и мне сколько— нибудь похвалиться.
16 I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
16 Πάλιν λέγω, μή τίς με δόξῃ ἄφρονα εἶναι· εἰ δὲ μή γε, κἂν ὡς ἄφρονα δέξασθέ με, ἵνα κἀγὼ μικρόν τι καυχήσωμαι.
17 Что скажу, то скажу не в Господе, но как бы в неразумии при такой отважности на похвалу.
17 That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
17 ὃ λαλῶ, οὐ λαλῶ κατὰ Κύριον, ἀλλ᾽ ὡς ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ, ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ ὑποστάσει τῆς καυχήσεως.
18 Как многие хвалятся по плоти, то и я буду хвалиться.
18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
18 ἐπεὶ πολλοὶ καυχῶνται κατὰ τὴν σάρκα, κἀγὼ καυχήσομαι.
19 Ибо вы, люди разумные, охотно терпите неразумных:
19 For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
19 ἡδέως γὰρ ἀνέχεσθε τῶν ἀφρόνων φρόνιμοι ὄντες·
20 вы терпите, когда кто вас порабощает, когда кто объедает, когда кто обирает, когда кто превозносится, когда кто бьет вас в лицо.
20 For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
20 ἀνέχεσθε γὰρ εἴ τις ὑμᾶς καταδουλοῖ, εἴ τις κατεσθίει, εἴ τις λαμβάνει, εἴ τις ἐπαίρεται, εἴ τις ὑμᾶς εἰς πρόσωπον δέρει.
21 К стыду говорю, что на это у нас недоставало сил. А если кто смеет хвалиться чем—либо, то (скажу по неразумию) смею и я.
21 To my shame, I speak as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
21 κατὰ ἀτιμίαν λέγω, ὡς ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠσθενήσαμεν. ἐν ᾧ δ᾽ ἄν τις τολμᾷ, ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ λέγω, τολμῶ κἀγώ.
22 Они Евреи? и я. Израильтяне? и я. Семя Авраамово? и я.
22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring of Abraham? So am I.
22 Ἑβραῖοί εἰσι; κἀγώ· Ἰσραηλῖταί εἰσι; κἀγώ· σπέρμα Ἀβραάμ εἰσι; κἀγώ·
23 Христовы служители? (в безумии говорю:) я больше. Я гораздо более был в трудах, безмерно в ранах, более в темницах и многократно при смерти.
23 Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.
23 διάκονοι Χριστοῦ εἰσι; παραφρονῶν λαλῶ, ὑπὲρ ἐγώ· ἐν κόποις περισσοτέρως, ἐν πληγαῖς ὑπερβαλλόντως, ἐν φυλακαῖς περισσοτέρως, ἐν θανάτοις πολλάκις·
24 От Иудеев пять раз дано мне было по сорока ударов без одного;
24 Five times I received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
24 ὑπὸ Ἰουδαίων πεντάκις τεσσαράκοντα παρὰ μίαν ἔλαβον,
25 три раза меня били палками, однажды камнями побивали, три раза я терпел кораблекрушение, ночь и день пробыл во глубине морской;
25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
25 τρὶς ἐρραβδίσθην, ἅπαξ ἐλιθάσθην, τρὶς ἐναυάγησα, νυχθήμερον ἐν τῷ βυθῷ πεποίηκα·
26 много раз был в путешествиях, в опасностях на реках, в опасностях от разбойников, в опасностях от единоплеменников, в опасностях от язычников, в опасностях в городе, в опасностях в пустыне, в опасностях на море, в опасностях между лжебратиями,
26 I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
26 ὁδοιπορίαις πολλάκις, κινδύνοις ποταμῶν, κινδύνοις λῃστῶν, κινδύνοις ἐκ γένους, κινδύνοις ἐξ ἐθνῶν, κινδύνοις ἐν πόλει, κινδύνοις ἐν ἐρημίᾳ, κινδύνοις ἐν θαλάσσῃ, κινδύνοις ἐν ψευδαδέλφοις·
27 в труде и в изнурении, часто в бдении, в голоде и жажде, часто в посте, на стуже и в наготе.
27 in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
27 ἐν κόπῳ καὶ μόχθῳ, ἐν ἀγρυπνίαις πολλάκις, ἐν λιμῷ καὶ δίψει, ἐν νηστείαις πολλάκις, ἐν ψύχει καὶ γυμνότητι·
28 Кроме посторонних приключений, у меня ежедневно стечение людей, забота о всех церквах.
28 Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.
28 χωρὶς τῶν παρεκτὸς ἡ ἐπισύστασίς μου ἡ καθ᾽ ἡμέραν, ἡ μέριμνα πασῶν τῶν ἐκκλησιῶν.
29 Кто изнемогает, с кем бы и я не изнемогал? Кто соблазняется, за кого бы я не воспламенялся?
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation?
29 τίς ἀσθενεῖ, καὶ οὐκ ἀσθενῶ; τίς σκανδαλίζεται, καὶ οὐκ ἐγὼ πυροῦμαι;
30 Если должно мне хвалиться, то буду хвалиться немощью моею.
30 If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
30 εἰ καυχᾶσθαι δεῖ, τὰ τῆς ἀσθενείας μου καυχήσομαι.
31 Бог и Отец Господа нашего Иисуса Христа, благословенный во веки, знает, что я не лгу.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie.
31 ὁ Θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ οἶδεν, ὁ ὢν εὐλογητὸς εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, ὅτι οὐ ψεύδομαι.
32 В Дамаске областной правитель царя Ареты стерег город Дамаск, чтобы схватить меня; и я в корзине был спущен из окна по стене и избежал его рук.
32 In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the Damascenes’ city, desiring to arrest me. 33 I was let down in a basket through a window by the wall, and escaped his hands.
32 ἐν Δαμασκῷ ὁ ἐθνάρχης Ἀρέτα τοῦ βασιλέως ἐφρούρει τὴν Δαμασκηνῶν πόλιν πιάσαι με θέλων, 33 καὶ διὰ θυρίδος ἐν σαργάνῃ ἐχαλάσθην διὰ τοῦ τείχους καὶ ἐξέφυγον τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ.

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).
Being about to enter upon his own praises he uses much previous correction. And he does this not once or twice, although the necessity of the subject, and what he had often said, were sufficient excuse for him.

For the devil it was, transforming himself into an angel of light. And he much allured proud flesh, in that he had no fleshly body.

Wherefore Paul also said, "That wherein they glory, they may be found even as we." But if when we are in a strange country, and are going unto persons unknown to us, we must seek nothing more than our food for the day, much more when abiding at home.

The devil also transfigures himself into an angel of light; not that he may reascend to where he was, for having made his heart hard as an anvil, he has henceforth a will that cannot repent; but in order that he may envelope those who are living an Angelic life in a mist of blindness, and a pestilent condition …
