Ὁ δὲ τῶν, ὡς ὑμεῖς φατὲ, βαρβάρων λόγος εὐσεβέστατός ἐστιν, ἕνα θεὸν καὶ δημιουργὸν τοῦδε τοῦ παντὸς εἰσηγούμενος, τῇ φύσει ἀγαθὸν καὶ δίκαιον· ἀγαθὸν μὲν, ὡς μεταμελομένοις συγχωροῦντα τὰ ἁμαρτήματα· δίκαιον δὲ, ὡς ἑκάστῳ μὴ μετανοοῦντι κατ’ ἀξίαν τῶν πεπραγμένων ἀποδιδόντα. ἕκαστος γὰρ προσδοκίᾳ τοῦ κριθήσεσθαι ὑπὸ τοῦ παντεπόπτου θεοῦ πρὸς τὸ σωφρονεῖν μᾶλλον τὴν ὁρμὴν λαμβάνει· καὶ ὁ σωφρόνως βεβιωκὼς τῆς αἰωνίου λυτροῦται κολάσεως.
