The Glory of the Father and the Son
Glory, indeed, is not unearned for the Father to accept, being perfect, infinite, and incomprehensible, not in need of beauty or any elegance.
Nor does His Word, being God begotten from Him, through whom angels and heavens and earth and infinite magnitudes and all things composed of matter and substance were made; but the man of Christ, being raised from the dead, is exalted and glorified, removing the shame of the adversaries.
But those who have armed hatred through envy against him and are blocked by war will be scattered, because He has worthily raised His own temple, the Word and God.
Greek
Oratio in inscriptione psalmorum graduum (fragmenta) Ο ΛΟΓΟΣ ΕΙΣ ΤΑΣ ΕΠΙΓΡΑΦΑΣ ΤΩΝ ΑΝΑΒΑΘΜΩΝ 33 ∆όξαν δὲ ἐπίκτητον ὁ Πατὴρ οὐκ ἐπιδέχεται, τέλειος, ἄπειρος, ἀπερινόητος ὢν, ἀπροσδεὴς κάλλους καὶ παντοίας εὐπρεπείας. Ἀλλ' οὐδὲ ὁ Λόγος αὐτοῦ, Θεὸς ὢν ὁ γεννηθεὶς ἐξ αὐτοῦ, δι' οὗ γεγόνασιν ἄγγελοι καὶ οὐρανοὶ καὶ γῆς ἄπειρα μεγέθη καὶ πᾶσαι συλλήβδην τῶν γενητῶν ὕλαι τε καὶ συστάσεις· ἀλλ' ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἐκ νεκρῶν ἐγειρόμενος, ὑψοῦται καὶ δοξάζεται, τῶν ἐναντίων αἰσχύνην ἄντικρυς ἀραμένων. 34 Οἱ δὲ φθόνῳ τὸ μῖσος ἀράμενοι κατ' αὐτοῦ καὶ πεφραγμένοι πολεμίᾳ παρατάξει σκορπίζονται, τοῦ Λόγου τε καὶ Θεοῦ τὸν ἑαυτοῦ ναὸν ἀξιοπρεπῶς ἀναστήσαντος.
