Ἕτοιμός εἰμι καὶ πάλιν βοᾶν λέγειν +
φύσασθαι πάντες οἱ γέμοντες σφαλμάτων +
ἐγγὺς γὰρ ἐστὶν ἡ κρίσις τοῦ Κυρίου +
καινὸν κοπιᾷ πασ' ἀνθρωπεία φύσις +
ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς κριτὴς δίκαιος ἐν ἐλέει,
καὶ διὰ τοῦτο δεῖ ἡμᾶς τοῦ προσέχειν +
φεύγομεν τοίνυν τῶν σαρκικῶν σφαλμάτων +
τὴν βορβορώδη πλεονεκτησίαν +
ἀκούσωμεν δὲ καὶ τῆς εὐλογημένης φωνῆς λεγούσης +
ἔλθετε πάντες οἱ ἐμοὶ δουλευκότες +
οἱ ἐνδήσαντες τοῖς πτωχοῖς τε καὶ ξένοις +
ἅτινα ἐποθεῖτε +
καμὲ σὺν αὐτοῖς τάξον Θέε τῶν ὅλων
