Κᾀγὼ αἰσθόμενος ἤδη τὴν ἐπίλυσιν ὑπομειδιῶν ἔφην· ὅτι προφήτης ἦν. καὶ ὁ Πέτρος ἔφη· εἰ οὖν ὁ προφήτης, ἄνθρωπος ὤν, οὐδὲν ἠγνόει, διὰ τὸ ἀπὸ Θεοῦ εἰληφέναι τὴν πρόγνωσιν, πῶς οὖν αὐτὸς ὁ δεδωκὼς ἀνθρώπῳ τὸ προγινώσκειν, Θεὸς ὥν, ἠγνόει; κᾀγὼ ἔφην· ὀρθῶς ἔφης. καὶ ὁ Πέτρος· ἔτι οὖν, ἔφη, εἰς αὐτὸ συνδιαπόρησόν μοι. ὡμολογημένου ἡμῖν ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς πάντα προγινώσκει, ἀνάγκη πᾶσα, τὰς λέγουσας αὐτὸν γραφὰς ἀγνοεῖν ψεύδεσθαι, τὰς δὲ γινώσκειν αὐτὸν λεγούσας ἀληθεύειν. κᾀγὼ ἔφην· ἀνάγκη οὕτως ἔχειν.
