12 Καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία, καὶ εἶπαν, μέγα τοῦτο τὸ ῥῆμά σου ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς ποιῆσαι.
Καὶ νῦν δότε αἴνεσιν Κυρίῳ Θεῷ τῶν πατέρῶν ἡμῶν, καὶ ποιήσατε τὸ ἀρεστὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ διαστάλητε ἀπὸ λαῶν τῆς γῆς καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν γυναικῶν τῶν ἀλλοτρίων.
Ἀλλὰ ὁ λαὸς πολὺς, καὶ ὁ καιρὸς χειμερινὸς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι δύναμις στῆναι ἔξω· καὶ τὸ ἔργον οὐκ εἰς ἡμέραν μίαν καὶ οὐκ εἰς δύο, ὅτι ἐπληθύναμεν τοῦ ἀδικῆσαι ἐν τῷ ῥῆματι τούτῳ·
