To Maurianus.
The Son of God, Jesus Christ, did not spare himself, that he might spare us, he who alone is without sin dying on behalf of sinners. Do not, then, despair, but press on toward salvation.
Ὁ τοῦ Θεοῦ Υἱὸς Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς οὐκ ἐφείσατο ἑαυτοῦ, ἵνα ἡμῶν φείσηται, ὁ μόνος ἀναμάρτητος ἀποθανὼν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν. Μὴ οὖν ἀπογίνωσκε, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπείγου πρὸς τὸ σῶσον.
