“ Abraham is our father,” they answered.“ If you were Abraham’s children,” said Jesus,“ then you would do what Abraham did.

“ Abraham is our father,” they answered. Jesus said,“ Are you really Abraham’s children? If you are, you will do what Abraham did.

They answered him,“ Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them,“ If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did,

“ Our father is Abraham!” they declared.“ No,” Jesus replied,“ for if you were really the children of Abraham, you would follow his example.

“ Our father is Abraham,” they replied.“ If you were Abraham’s children,” Jesus told them,“ you would do what Abraham did.

應知凡有信德者、皆屬亞伯漢之子孫。

而亞伯漢之苗裔、亦非必盡為其子女。經云：『惟依灑格所生、乃得稱為汝裔。』

予亦知爾為亞伯漢之子孫、顧爾仍欲置予於死、以爾心中不容吾道故。

毋思吾輩有亞伯漢為我祖先；蓋吾語爾、天主全能、即欲化此頑石為亞伯漢之子孫、亦易如反掌耳。

蓋外表之猶太人、非真猶太人；而形軀之割禮、非真割禮。惟內心為猶太人、真為猶太人；心靈之割禮、真為割禮。蓋割禮在精神、而不在形式、在取悅於天主、而不在苟合於人耳。

庶克成爾天父之子女。蓋天父使旭日上升、兼照良莠；沛然降霖、亦無間乎義與不義也。

夫爾等既屬基督即為亞伯漢之裔、亦即承恩諾之嗣子也。

亦為既受割而能踵效其未割時所具之信德者之父也。

可見其行固有恃乎其信、為之推動、而其信亦有待乎其行、為之玉成也。於是古經所載亞伯漢因信天主而成聖、且稱為「天主之友」云者、乃獲當然之補充、而厥義大備矣。可見人之稱義、以其所行、而不僅憑其所信而已。

是故人之為嗣、所緣惟信德、所恃惟慈惠；庶幾天主之恩諾、能普被眾裔、不僅限於屬法者亦且兼及具有亞伯漢之信德者。
