PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 В те дни, когда собралось весьма много народа и нечего было им есть, Иисус, призвав учеников Своих, сказал им:
1 In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them,
1 Ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις πάλιν πολλοῦ ὄχλου ὄντος καὶ μὴ ἐχόντων τί φάγωσι, προσκαλεσάμενος ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγει αὐτοῖς·
2 жаль Мне народа, что уже три дня находятся при Мне, и нечего им есть.
2 “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
2 σπλαγχνίζομαι ἐπὶ τὸν ὄχλον, ὅτι ἤδη ἡμέραι τρεῖς προσμένουσί μοι καὶ οὐκ ἔχουσι τί φάγωσι·
3 Если неевшими отпущу их в домы их, ослабеют в дороге, ибо некоторые из них пришли издалека.
3 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”
3 καὶ ἐὰν ἀπολύσω αὐτοὺς νήστεις εἰς οἶκον αὐτῶν, ἐκλυθήσονται ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ· τινὲς γὰρ αὐτῶν ἀπὸ μακρόθεν ἥκασι.
4 Ученики Его отвечали Ему: откуда мог бы кто взять здесь в пустыне хлебов, чтобы накормить их?
4 His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”
4 καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ· πόθεν τούτους δυνήσεταί τις ὧδε χορτάσαι ἄρτων ἐπ᾽ ἐρημίας;
5 И спросил их: сколько у вас хлебов? Они сказали: семь.
5 He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
5 καὶ ἐπηρώτα αὐτούς· πόσους ἔχετε ἄρτους; οἱ δὲ εἶπον· ἑπτά.
6 Тогда велел народу возлечь на землю; и, взяв семь хлебов и воздав благодарение, преломил и дал ученикам Своим, чтобы они раздали; и они раздали народу.
6 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
6 καὶ παρήγγειλε τῷ ὄχλῳ ἀναπεσεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς· καὶ λαβὼν τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους εὐχαριστήσας ἔκλασε καὶ ἐδίδου τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα παρατιθῶσι· καὶ παρέθηκαν τῷ ὄχλῳ.
7 Было у них и немного рыбок: благословив, Он велел раздать и их.
7 They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
7 καὶ εἶχον ἰχθύδια ὀλίγα· καὶ αὐτὰ εὐλογήσας εἶπε παρατιθέναι καὶ αὐτά.
8 И ели, и насытились; и набрали оставшихся кусков семь корзин.
8 They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
8 ἔφαγον δὲ καὶ ἐχορτάσθησαν, καὶ ἦραν περισσεύματα κλασμάτων ἑπτὰ σπυρίδας.
9 Евших же было около четырех тысяч. И отпустил их.
9 Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
9 ἦσαν δὲ ὡς τετρακισχίλιοι· καὶ ἀπέλυσεν αὐτούς.
10 И тотчас войдя в лодку с учениками Своими, прибыл в пределы Далмануфские.
10 Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
10 Καὶ ἐμβὰς εὐθὺς εἰς τὸ πλοῖον μετὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ ἦλθεν εἰς τὰ μέρη Δαλμανουθά.
11 Вышли фарисеи, начали с Ним спорить и требовали от Него знамения с неба, искушая Его.
11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.
11 Καὶ ἐξῆλθον οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ ἤρξαντο συζητεῖν αὐτῷ, ζητοῦντες παρ᾽ αὐτοῦ σημεῖον ἀπὸ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, πειράζοντες αὐτόν.
12 И Он, глубоко вздохнув, сказал: для чего род сей требует знамения? Истинно говорю вам, не дастся роду сему знамение.
12 He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
12 καὶ ἀναστενάξας τῷ πνεύματι αὐτοῦ λέγει· τί ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη σημεῖον ἐπιζητεῖ; ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, εἰ δοθήσεται τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ σημεῖον.
13 И, оставив их, опять вошел в лодку и отправился на ту сторону.
13 He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.
13 καὶ ἀφεὶς αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸ πλοῖον ἀπῆλθε πάλιν.
14 При сем ученики Его забыли взять хлебов и кроме одного хлеба не имели с собою в лодке.
14 They forgot to take bread; and they didn’t have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
14 Καὶ ἐπελάθοντο λαβεῖν ἄρτους, καὶ εἰ μὴ ἕνα ἄρτον οὐκ εἶχον μεθ᾽ ἑαυτῶν ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ.
15 А Он заповедал им, говоря: смотрите, берегитесь закваски фарисейской и закваски Иродовой.
15 He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”
15 καὶ διεστέλλετο αὐτοῖς λέγων· ὁρᾶτε, βλέπετε ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ τῆς ζύμης Ἡρῴδου.
16 И, рассуждая между собою, говорили: это значит, что хлебов нет у нас.
16 They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”
16 καὶ διελογίζοντο πρὸς ἀλλήλους λέγοντες ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχομεν.
17 Иисус, уразумев, говорит им: что рассуждаете о том, что нет у вас хлебов? Еще ли не понимаете и не разумеете? Еще ли окаменено у вас сердце?
17 Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Don’t you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?
17 καὶ γνοὺς ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς· τί διαλογίζεσθε ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχετε; οὔπω νοεῖτε οὐδὲ συνίετε; ἔτι πεπωρωμένην ἔχετε τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν;
18 Имея очи, не видите? имея уши, не слышите? и не помните?
18 Having eyes, don’t you see? Having ears, don’t you hear? Don’t you remember?
18 ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχοντες οὐ βλέπετε, καὶ ὦτα ἔχοντες οὐκ ἀκούετε; καὶ οὐ μνημονεύετε;
19 Когда Я пять хлебов преломил для пяти тысяч человек, сколько полных коробов набрали вы кусков? Говорят Ему: двенадцать.
19 When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”
19 ὅτε τοὺς πέντε ἄρτους ἔκλασα εἰς τοὺς πεντακισχιλίους, καὶ πόσους κοφίνους κλασμάτων πλήρεις ἤρατε; λέγουσιν αὐτῷ· δώδεκα.
20 А когда семь для четырех тысяч, сколько корзин набрали вы оставшихся кусков. Сказали: семь.
20 “When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”
20 ὅτε δὲ τοὺς ἑπτὰ εἰς τοὺς τετρακισχιλίους, πόσων σπυρίδων πληρώματα κλασμάτων ἤρατε; οἱ δὲ εἶπον· ἑπτά.
21 И сказал им: как же не разумеете?
21 He asked them, “Don’t you understand yet?”
21 καὶ ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς· οὔπω συνίετε;
22 Приходит в Вифсаиду; и приводят к Нему слепого и просят, чтобы прикоснулся к нему.
22 He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.
22 Καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς Βηθσαϊδά. καὶ φέρουσιν αὐτῷ τυφλὸν καὶ παρακαλοῦσιν αὐτὸν ἵνα αὐτοῦ ἅψηται.
23 Он, взяв слепого за руку, вывел его вон из селения и, плюнув ему на глаза, возложил на него руки и спросил его: видит ли что?
23 He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
23 καὶ ἐπιλαβόμενος τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ τυφλοῦ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἔξω τῆς κώμης, καὶ πτύσας εἰς τὰ ὄμματα αὐτοῦ, ἐπιθεὶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῷ ἐπηρώτα αὐτὸν εἴ τι βλέπει.
24 Он, взглянув, сказал: вижу проходящих людей, как деревья.
24 He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”
24 καὶ ἀναβλέψας ἔλεγε· βλέπω τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ὡς δένδρα περιπατοῦντας.
25 Потом опять возложил руки на глаза ему и велел ему взглянуть. И он исцелел и стал видеть все ясно.
25 Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.
25 εἶτα πάλιν ἐπέθηκε τὰς χεῖρας ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν ἀναβλέψαι, καὶ ἀποκατεστάθη, καὶ ἐνέβλεψε τηλαυγῶς ἅπαντας.
26 И послал его домой, сказав: не заходи в селение и не рассказывай никому в селении.
26 He sent him away to his house, saying, “Don’t enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”
26 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ λέγων· μηδὲ εἰς τὴν κώμην εἰσέλθῃς μηδὲ εἴπῃς τινὶ ἐν τῇ κώμῃ.
27 И пошел Иисус с учениками Своими в селения Кесарии Филипповой. Дорогою Он спрашивал учеников Своих: за кого почитают Меня люди?
27 Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”
27 Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰς κώμας Καισαρείας τῆς Φιλίππου· καὶ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐπηρώτα τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγων αὐτοῖς· τίνα με λέγουσιν οἱ ἄνθρωποι εἶναι;
28 Они отвечали: за Иоанна Крестителя; другие же — за Илию; а иные — за одного из пророков.
28 They told him, “John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”
28 οἱ δὲ ἀπεκρίθησαν· Ἰωάννην τὸν βαπτιστήν, καὶ ἄλλοι Ἠλίαν, ἄλλοι δὲ ἕνα τῶν προφητῶν.
29 Он говорит им: а вы за кого почитаете Меня? Петр сказал Ему в ответ: Ты Христос.
29 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
29 καὶ αὐτὸς λέγει αὐτοῖς· ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνα με λέγετε εἶναι; ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Πέτρος λέγει αὐτῷ· σὺ εἶ ὁ Χριστός.
30 И запретил им, чтобы никому не говорили о Нем.
30 He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
30 καὶ ἐπετίμησεν αὐτοῖς ἵνα μηδενὶ λέγωσι περὶ αὐτοῦ.
31 И начал учить их, что Сыну Человеческому много должно пострадать, быть отвержену старейшинами, первосвященниками и книжниками, и быть убиту, и в третий день воскреснуть.
31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
31 Καὶ ἤρξατο διδάσκειν αὐτοὺς ὅτι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου πολλὰ παθεῖν, καὶ ἀποδοκιμασθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ τῶν ἀρχιερέων καὶ τῶν γραμματέων, καὶ ἀποκτανθῆναι, καὶ μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἀναστῆναι·
32 И говорил о сем открыто. Но Петр, отозвав Его, начал прекословить Ему.
32 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.
32 καὶ παρρησίᾳ τὸν λόγον ἐλάλει. καὶ προσλαβόμενος αὐτὸν ὁ Πέτρος ἤρξατο ἐπιτιμᾶν αὐτῷ.
33 Он же, обратившись и взглянув на учеников Своих, воспретил Петру, сказав: отойди от Меня, сатана, потому что ты думаешь не о том, что Божие, но что человеческое.
33 But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”
33 ὁ δὲ ἐπιστραφεὶς καὶ ἰδὼν τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἐπετίμησε τῷ Πέτρῳ λέγων· ὕπαγε ὀπίσω μου, σατανᾶ· ὅτι οὐ φρονεῖς τὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἀλλὰ τὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
34 И, подозвав народ с учениками Своими, сказал им: кто хочет идти за Мною, отвергнись себя, и возьми крест свой, и следуй за Мною.
34 He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
34 Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος τὸν ὄχλον σὺν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὅστις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἀκολουθεῖν, ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι.
35 Ибо кто хочет душу свою сберечь, тот потеряет ее, а кто потеряет душу свою ради Меня и Евангелия, тот сбережет ее.
35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
35 ὃς γὰρ ἂν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι, ἀπολέσει αὐτήν· ὃς δ᾽ ἂν ἀπολέσῃ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχὴν ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ καὶ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου, οὗτος σώσει αὐτήν.
36 Ибо какая польза человеку, если он приобретет весь мир, а душе своей повредит?
36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
36 τί γὰρ ὠφελήσει ἄνθρωπον ἐὰν κερδήσῃ τὸν κόσμον ὅλον, καὶ ζημιωθῇ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ;
37 Или какой выкуп даст человек за душу свою?
37 For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
37 ἢ τί δώσει ἄνθρωπος ἀντάλλαγμα τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ;
38 Ибо кто постыдится Меня и Моих слов в роде сем прелюбодейном и грешном, того постыдится и Сын Человеческий, когда приидет в славе Отца Своего со святыми Ангелами.
38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
38 ὃς γὰρ ἐὰν ἐπαισχυνθῇ με καὶ τοὺς ἐμοὺς λόγους ἐν τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ τῇ μοιχαλίδι καὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ, καὶ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐπαισχυνθήσεται αὐτὸν ὅταν ἔλθῃ ἐν τῇ δόξῃ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀγγέλων τῶν ἁγίων.

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 8:5 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XLV)

    In expounding to you the Holy Scriptures, I as it were break bread for you. Do ye in hunger receive it, and break forth with a fulness of phrase from the heart; and ye who are rich in your banquet, be not meagre in good works and deeds. What I deal out to you is not mine own.

    But Mark saith, that when they were come unto Him, and were questioning with Him, "He sighed deeply in His spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign?" And yet surely their inquiry was deserving of anger and great displeasure; yet nevertheless the benevolent and provident One is not angry, but pities and bewails them as incurably …
