Greek
δυνάμεθα; Καλὸν ἡ νηστεία, ἀλλὰ χωρὶς προσευχῆς οὐκ ἐπιπατεῖ δαίμοσιν· «Τοῦτο γάρ», φησίν, «τὸ γένος οὐκ ἐξέρχεται εἰ μὴ ἐν νηστείᾳ καὶ προσευχῇ.» Καὶ καλὸν μὲν ἡ προσευχή, ἀλλὰ χωρὶς ἐλεημοσύνης εἰς οὐρανὸν ἀναβῆναι οὐ δύναται· ἀκήκοας γὰρ τοῦ ἀγγέλου πρὸς τὸν Κορνήλιον λέγοντος· «Αἱ προσευχαί σου καὶ αἱ ἐλεημοσύναι σου ἀνέβησαν εἰς μνημόσυνον ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ θεοῦ.» Οὐκοῦν ἡ ἐλεημοσύνη τὴν προσευχὴν εἰς οὐρανὸν ἐβάστασεν. Θαυμαστὴ μὲν οὖν ἡ ἐλεημοσύνη, ἀλλὰ χωρὶς πίστεως ἁμαρτημάτων οὐκ ἐργάζεται λύτρωσιν·
