違逆者、宜以謙和規正之、庶上帝賜以悛心、俾識真理、致自醒以脫魔之機檻、乃為主之僕所取、以成上帝之旨也、

故宜定爾心、毋先慮何以訴、蓋我將賜爾才辯智慧、爾諸仇不能抵拒辯駁也、

蓋見爾貞潔之行及敬畏也、

彼得充於聖神、語之曰、民之有司、與長老乎、我儕今日若因行於病者之善事見訊、即斯人何由得愈、則爾眾與以色列諸民、宜知斯人得愈、立於爾前、乃因拿撒勒耶穌基督之名、即爾所釘於十架、而上帝自死而起者也、彼乃爾工師所棄之石、已成屋隅首石矣、此外別無拯救、蓋天下人間、未錫他名、我儕以之得救也、○

耶和華曰、爾曹其來、爾我互辯、爾罪雖丹如朱、將白如雪、雖紅若絳、將白若毛、

祝頌我主耶穌基督之父上帝、依其鴻慈、由耶穌基督自死復起、重生我儕、致獲維生之望、而得不壞不玷不衰之業、為爾存之於天、

昔在尋野水濱、會眾紛爭、爾曹悖逆我命、不於民前尊我為聖、所言之水、在加低斯米利巴、

惟萬軍之耶和華以公而崇高、維聖之上帝以義而見聖、
