Τί οὖν πρὸς τοὺς τέως σκανδαλιζομένους ἐρεῖς; Τοὺς μειζόνως διαλάμποντας οὐ λέγεις, τοὺς δὲ προσωπεῖα εὐλαβείας περικειμένους καὶ νῦν ἐλεγχομένους, τούτους ἄγεις εἰς μέσον. Οὐχ ὁρᾷς τὸ χρυσίον καθαιρόμενον; τὸν μόλιβδον ἐλεγχόμενον; τὰ ἄχυρα διακρινόμενα τοῦ σίτου; τοὺς λύκους τῶν προβάτων; τοὺς πεπλασμένους τῶν ἀληθῶς ἐν εὐλαβείᾳ ζώντων; Ὥστε ὅταν ἴδῃς τούτων τὰ σκάνδαλα, ἐννόησον κἀκείνων τὰς εὐδοκιμήσεις.
