Ὑμεῖς οὖν ὡς Θεοῦ δοῦλοι εὐγνώμονες, ἀφ᾽ ἑαυτῶν τὸ εὔλογον νοοῦντες, τὴν αὐτῷ ἀρέσκουσαν ἀναδέξασθε πολιτείαν, ἵνα οὕτως αὐτὸν φιλοῦντες καὶ φιλούμενοι ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ εἰς ἀεὶ τὸ συμφέρον ἔχοιτε. αὐτῷ γὰρ μόνῳ τὸ παρασχεῖν δυνατώτατόν ἐστιν, τῷ τὰ μὴ ὄντα εἰς τὸ εἶναι συστησαμένῳ, οὐρανὸν δημιουργήσαντι, γῆν πιλώσαντι, θάλασσαν περιορίσαντι, τὰ ἐν ᾅδῃ ταμιεύσαντι καὶ τὰ πάντα ἀέρι πληρώσαντι.
