1 Тогда сказал первосвященник: так ли это?
1 The high priest said, “Are these things so?”
2 Но он сказал: мужи братия и отцы! послушайте. Бог славы явился отцу нашему Аврааму в Месопотамии, прежде переселения его в Харран,
2 He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
3 и сказал ему: выйди из земли твоей и из родства твоего и из дома отца твоего, и пойди в землю, которую покажу тебе.
3 and said to him, ‘Get out of your land and away from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’
4 Тогда он вышел из земли Халдейской и поселился в Харране; а оттуда, по смерти отца его, переселил его Бог в сию землю, в которой вы ныне живете.
4 Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land where you are now living.
5 И не дал ему на ней наследства ни на стопу ноги, а обещал дать ее во владение ему и потомству его по нем, когда еще был он бездетен.
5 He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when he still had no child.
6 И сказал ему Бог, что потомки его будут переселенцами в чужой земле и будут в порабощении и притеснении лет четыреста.
6 God spoke in this way: that his offspring would live as aliens in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
7 Но Я, сказал Бог, произведу суд над тем народом, у которого они будут в порабощении; и после того они выйдут и будут служить Мне на сем месте.
7 ‘I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,’ said God, ‘and after that they will come out and serve me in this place.’
8 И дал ему завет обрезания. По сем родил он Исаака и обрезал его в восьмой день; а Исаак родил Иакова, Иаков же двенадцать патриархов.
8 He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
9 Патриархи, по зависти, продали Иосифа в Египет; но Бог был с ним,
9 “The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him
10 и избавил его от всех скорбей его, и даровал мудрость ему и благоволение царя Египетского фараона, который и поставил его начальником над Египтом и над всем домом своим.
10 and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11 И пришел голод и великая скорбь на всю землю Египетскую и Ханаанскую, и отцы наши не находили пропитания.
11 Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.
12 Иаков же, услышав, что есть хлеб в Египте, послал туда отцов наших в первый раз.
12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
13 А когда [они пришли] во второй раз, Иосиф открылся братьям своим, и известен стал фараону род Иосифов.
13 On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family was revealed to Pharaoh.
14 Иосиф, послав, призвал отца своего Иакова и все родство свое, душ семьдесят пять.
14 Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
15 Иаков перешел в Египет, и скончался сам и отцы наши;
15 Jacob went down into Egypt and he died, himself and our fathers;
16 и перенесены были в Сихем и положены во гробе, который купил Авраам ценою серебра у сынов Еммора Сихемова.
16 and they were brought back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem.
17 А по мере, как приближалось время исполниться обетованию, о котором клялся Бог Аврааму, народ возрастал и умножался в Египте,
17 “But as the time of the promise came close which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 до тех пор, как восстал иной царь, который не знал Иосифа.
18 until there arose a different king who didn’t know Joseph.
19 Сей, ухищряясь против рода нашего, притеснял отцов наших, принуждая их бросать детей своих, чтобы не оставались в живых.
19 The same took advantage of our race and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to abandon their babies, so that they wouldn’t stay alive.
20 В это время родился Моисей, и был прекрасен пред Богом. Три месяца он был питаем в доме отца своего.
20 At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome to God. He was nourished three months in his father’s house.
21 А когда был брошен, взяла его дочь фараонова и воспитала его у себя, как сына.
21 When he was abandoned, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up and reared him as her own son.
22 И научен был Моисей всей мудрости Египетской, и был силен в словах и делах.
22 Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
23 Когда же исполнилось ему сорок лет, пришло ему на сердце посетить братьев своих, сынов Израилевых.
23 But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
24 И, увидев одного из них обижаемого, вступился и отмстил за оскорбленного, поразив Египтянина.
24 Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
25 Он думал, поймут братья его, что Бог рукою его дает им спасение; но они не поняли.
25 He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they didn’t understand.
26 На следующий день, когда некоторые из них дрались, он явился и склонял их к миру, говоря: вы братья; зачем обижаете друг друга?
26 “The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, ‘Sirs, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?’
27 Но обижающий ближнего оттолкнул его, сказав: кто тебя поставил начальником и судьею над нами?
27 But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Не хочешь ли ты убить и меня, как вчера убил Египтянина?
28 Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’
29 От сих слов Моисей убежал и сделался пришельцем в земле Мадиамской, где родились от него два сына.
29 Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
30 По исполнении сорока лет явился ему в пустыне горы Синая Ангел Господень в пламени горящего тернового куста.
30 “When forty years were fulfilled, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Моисей, увидев, дивился видению; а когда подходил рассмотреть, был к нему глас Господень:
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, the voice of the Lord came to him,
32 Я Бог отцов твоих, Бог Авраама и Бог Исаака и Бог Иакова. Моисей, объятый трепетом, не смел смотреть.
32 ‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses trembled and dared not look.
33 И сказал ему Господь: сними обувь с ног твоих, ибо место, на котором ты стоишь, есть земля святая.
33 The Lord said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
34 Я вижу притеснение народа Моего в Египте, и слышу стенание его, и нисшел избавить его: итак пойди, Я пошлю тебя в Египет.
34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you into Egypt.’
35 Сего Моисея, которого они отвергли, сказав: кто тебя поставил начальником и судьею? сего Бог чрез Ангела, явившегося ему в терновом кусте, послал начальником и избавителем.
35 “This Moses whom they refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 Сей вывел их, сотворив чудеса и знамения в земле Египетской, и в Чермном море, и в пустыне в продолжение сорока лет.
36 This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
37 Это тот Моисей, который сказал сынам Израилевым: Пророка воздвигнет вам Господь Бог ваш из братьев ваших, как меня; Его слушайте.
37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’
38 Это тот, который был в собрании в пустыне с Ангелом, говорившим ему на горе Синае, и с отцами нашими, и который принял живые слова, чтобы передать нам,
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received living revelations to give to us,
39 которому отцы наши не хотели быть послушными, но отринули его и обратились сердцами своими к Египту,
39 to whom our fathers wouldn’t be obedient, but rejected him and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
40 сказав Аарону: сделай нам богов, которые предшествовали бы нам; ибо с Моисеем, который вывел нас из земли Египетской, не знаем, что случилось.
40 saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
41 И сделали в те дни тельца, и принесли жертву идолу, и веселились перед делом рук своих.
41 They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
42 Бог же отвратился и оставил их служить воинству небесному, как написано в книге пророков: дом Израилев! приносили ли вы Мне заколения и жертвы в продолжение сорока лет в пустыне?
42 But God turned away and gave them up to serve the army of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘Did you offer to me slain animals and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
43 Вы приняли скинию Молохову и звезду бога вашего Ремфана, изображения, которые вы сделали, чтобы поклоняться им: и Я переселю вас далее Вавилона.
43 You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, the star of your god Rephan, the figures which you made to worship, so I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
44 Скиния свидетельства была у отцов наших в пустыне, как повелел Говоривший Моисею сделать ее по образцу, им виденному.
44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
45 Отцы наши с Иисусом, взяв ее, внесли во владения народов, изгнанных Богом от лица отцов наших. Так было до дней Давида.
45 which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers to the days of David,
46 Сей обрел благодать пред Богом и молил, чтобы найти жилище Богу Иакова.
46 who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.
47 Соломон же построил Ему дом.
47 But Solomon built him a house.
48 Но Всевышний не в рукотворенных храмах живет, как говорит пророк:
48 However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
49 Небо — престол Мой, и земля — подножие ног Моих. Какой дом созиждете Мне, говорит Господь, или какое место для покоя Моего?
49 ‘heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?’ says the Lord. ‘Or what is the place of my rest?
50 Не Моя ли рука сотворила все сие?
50 Didn’t my hand make all these things?’
51 Жестоковыйные! люди с необрезанным сердцем и ушами! вы всегда противитесь Духу Святому, как отцы ваши, так и вы.
51 “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do.
52 Кого из пророков не гнали отцы ваши? Они убили предвозвестивших пришествие Праведника, Которого предателями и убийцами сделались ныне вы, —
52 Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
53 вы, которые приняли закон при служении Ангелов и не сохранили.
53 You received the law as it was ordained by angels, and didn’t keep it!”
54 Слушая сие, они рвались сердцами своими и скрежетали на него зубами.
54 Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.
55 Стефан же, будучи исполнен Духа Святаго, воззрев на небо, увидел славу Божию и Иисуса, стоящего одесную Бога,
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
56 и сказал: вот, я вижу небеса отверстые и Сына Человеческого, стоящего одесную Бога.
56 and said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
57 Но они, закричав громким голосом, затыкали уши свои, и единодушно устремились на него,
57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears, then rushed at him with one accord.
58 и, выведя за город, стали побивать его камнями. Свидетели же положили свои одежды у ног юноши, именем Савла,
58 They threw him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.
59 и побивали камнями Стефана, который молился и говорил: Господи Иисусе! приими дух мой.
59 They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”
60 И, преклонив колени, воскликнул громким голосом: Господи! не вмени им греха сего. И, сказав сие, почил.
60 He kneeled down and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.

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).
See, what a number of years the Promise has been given, and the manner of the Promise, and nowhere sacrifice, nowhere circumcision! He here shows, how God Himself suffered them to be afflicted, not that He had anything to lay to their charge. "And they shall bring them into bondage," etc. But nevertheless, they did not these things with impunity.

And He gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham] begat Isaac." And the rest of his words announce the same God, who was with Joseph and with the patriarchs, and who spake with Moses.
And so it has pleased Divine Providence, as I have said, and as we read in the Acts of the Apostles, that the law enjoining the worship of one God should be given by the disposition of angels.

And from many other things too one might perceive, that it is not possible for a disembodied soul to remain here. For both Stephen saith, "Receive my spirit;" and Paul, "To depart and to be with Christ is far better;" and of the patriarch too the Scripture saith, that "he was gathered unto his fathers, being cherished in a good …

Moses then, the prophet, saith, A Prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me: but let that "like unto me" be reserved awhile to be examined in its proper place.
