Καὶ ἐν ἐνενηκοστῷ ὀγδόῳ ψαλμῷ ὀνειδίζει ὑμᾶς τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον, καὶ τοῦτον, ὃν μὴ θέλετε βασιλέα εἶναι, βασιλέα καὶ κύριον καὶ τοῦ Σαμουὴλ καὶ τοῦ Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωσέως καὶ τῶν ἄλλων πάντων ἁπλῶς ὄντα μηνύει.

“And in the ninety-eighth psalm the Holy Spirit reproaches you, and declares that this one, whom you do not want to be king, is King and Lord both of Samuel and of Aaron and of Moses and, in short, of all the others.
