2. γίνεσθε πρὸς τὰς ὀργὰς αὐτῶν ὑμεῖς ταπεινόφρονες. ἀντιτάξατε πρὸς τὰς βλασφημίας αὐτῶν ὑμεῖς τὰς ἐκτενεῖς εὐχᾶς, αὐτῶν πλανωμένων στήκετε ὑμεῖς ἐν τῇ πίστει ἑδραῖοι, νικήσατε τὸ ἄγριον ἦθος ἐν ἡμερότητι, τὸ ὀργίλον ἐν πραότητι. μακάριοι γὰρ οἱ πραεῖς, καὶ Μωσῆς πρᾶος παρὰ πάντας ἀνθρώπους, καὶ Δαυὶδ πρᾶος σφόδρα· διὸ παραινεῖ Παῦλος, δοῦλον λέγων κυρίου οὐ δεῖ μάχεσθαι, ἀλλ’ ἤπιον εἶναι πρὸς πάντας, διδακτικόν, ἀνεξίκακον, ἐν πραότητι παιδεύοντα τοὺς ἀντιδιατιθεμένους.
