Not word-for-word — equipollent wording or necessary consequence

We do not claim every necessary point stands in Scripture word for word.
It may stand in equivalent words, or at least so that each item can be drawn from Scripture by a necessary and clear consequence — without needing another principle of faith to which Scripture would send us for fuller knowledge.
Latin
II. Non tamen omnia illa quae necessaria dicimus in Scriptura de verbo ad verbum reperiri, sed, vel verbis aequipollentibus, vel saltem ita ut singula ex Scriptura deduci possint per necessariam atque evidentem consequentiam, citra opem alterius fidei principii, ad quod Scriptura nos remittat, ut ex eo cognitionem uberiorem hauriamus.
