τὸν δ’ υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ θεὸν καὶ κύριον ἀνακηρύττει, καὶ ἀληθῶς υἱὸν εἶναι καὶ θεὸν διδάσκει· οὐ κατὰ τοὺς πολλοὺς τοὺς ἐπίκλην ὀνομασθέντας υἱούς τε καὶ θεούς, περὶ ὧν εἴρηται »ἐγὼ εἶπα θεοί ἐστε καὶ υἱοὶ ὑψίστου πάντες«, καθ’ ὃ δὲ μόνος αὐτὸς ὁ ἐξ αὐτοῦ γεννηθεὶς τοῦ πατρὸς »ἐν μορφῇ θεοῦ ὑπῆρχεν«, »εἰκών« τ’ ἦν »τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ ἀοράτου καὶ πρωτότοκος ἀπάσης κτίσεως«. διὸ καὶ τιμᾶν καὶ σέβειν καὶ προσκυνεῖν μόνον αὐτόν, οἷα κύριον καὶ σωτῆρα καὶ θεὸν ἑαυτῆς, μεμάθηκεν.
