2. ἄσπασαι τὸ θεοπρεπὲς πρεσβυτέριον, ἄσπασαι τοὺς ἁγίους συνδιακόνους σου, ὧν ἐγὼ ὀναίμην ἐν Χριστῷ σαρκί τε καὶ πνεύματι. ἄσπασαι τὸν λαὸν κυρίου ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου κατ’ ὄνομα, οὓς παρατίθημί σοι, ὡς Μωσῆς Ἰησοῦ τῷ μετ’ αὐτὸν στρατηγῷ. καὶ μή σοι φανῇ βαρὺ τὸ λεχθέν· εἰ γὰρ καὶ μή ἐσμεν τοιοῦτοι, οἷοι ἐκεῖνοι, ἀλλ’ οὖν γε εὐχόμεθα γενέσθαι, ἐπειδὴ καὶ τοῦ Ἀβραάμ ἐσμεν παῖδες.
