Ἀλλ' οὐ δεῖ ταῦτα ζητεῖν, ἀλλὰ πάντα παραχωρεῖν τῷ ἀκαταλήπτῳ τῆς τοῦ Θεοῦ σοφίας. Ὁ μὲν γὰρ γενναίως ἤδη πεπηγώς, κἂν μυρία τὰ κύματα, κἂν μυρίοι οἱ χειμῶνες ἐπιῶσιν, οὐ μόνον οὐδὲν παραβλάπτεται, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἰσχυρότερος γίνεται· ὁ δὲ ἀσθενὴς καὶ διαρρέων καὶ ὀλίγωρος καὶ μηδενὸς ἐνοχλοῦντος καταπίπτει πολλάκις. Εἰ δὲ καὶ λόγον τινὰ ἐπιζητεῖς μαθεῖν, ἄκουε τὸν ἡμῖν γνώριμον. Εἰσὶ μὲν γὰρ καὶ ἕτεροι πολλοὶ τῷ διαφόρως καὶ ποικίλως τὰ καθ' ἡμᾶς πάντα οἰκονομοῦντι δῆλοι· ὃν δὲ ἡμεῖς ἴσμεν, οὗτός ἐστι τέως.
