Ἔτι δὲ παραλαμβάνει τὴν βασιλείαν ἀπὸ βασιλέως, ὅν ἑαυτοῖς ἐβασίλευσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἱσραὴλ καὶ †οὐ διὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἄρξαντες αὐτὸν καὶ μὴ γνωρίσαντες τῷ θεῷ, πολέμους τε τοῦ κυρίου ἑτοιμάζει εἰρήνην τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ, λαῷ· τάχα δὲ διὰ τοῦτο »Δαβὶδ« προσαγορεύεται καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα »ῥάβδος« τοῖς δεομένοις ἐπιπόνου καὶ σκληροτέρας ἀγωγῆς καὶ μὴ ἐμπαρεσχηκόσιν ἑαυτοὺς τῇ ἀγάπῃ καὶ τῇ πραότητι τοῦ πατρός.
