διὸ καὶ καθέζεται μὲν αὐτὸς ἐν δεξιᾷ τοῦ πατρὸς ὡς λόγος· ἔνθα γάρ ἐστιν ὁ πατήρ, ἐκεῖ καὶ ὁ τούτου λόγος ἐστίν· ἡμεῖς δὲ στήκομεν κρινόμενοι παρ’ αὐτοῦ ὡς ποιήματα. καὶ προσκυνεῖται μὲν αὐτὸς διὰ τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν υἱὸν τοῦ προσκυνητοῦ πατρός, ἡμεῖς δὲ προσκυνοῦμεν κύριον καὶ θεὸν αὐτὸν ὁμολογοῦντες διὰ τὸ εἶναι ἡμᾶς κτίσματα καὶ ἄλλους παρ’ ἐκεῖνον.
