9 Εἶτα προσκαλεσάμενος ὁ βασιλεὺς μάγον τινὰ ἐπίσημον ἐργάτην τοῦ διαβόλου λέγει αὐτῷ· Σκεύασόν μοι δηλητήριον τοιοῦτον ὥστε μόνωρον γενέσθαι τὸν ἁψάμενον αὐτό. Ταῦτα ἀκούσας ὁ μάγος παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως ἀπελθὼν ἐποίησε τὸ ἐπιταχθὲν αὐτῷ παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ φέρει αὐτῷ, καί φησιν ὁ βασιλεύς· Δοθήτω Ἰωάννῃ τῷ Γαλιλαίῳ. Καὶ γεμίσας ὁ μάγος τὴν κύλικα, ἐπιδίδωσι τῷ θεολόγῳ. ὃ δὲ δεξαμενος τὸ φάρμακον καὶ κατασφραγισάμενος αὐτὸ καὶ ἐπικαλεσάμενος τὸν κύριον ὑμῶν Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ἔπιεν αὐτὸ ὥσπερ μεθʼ ἡδονῆς πολλῆς.
