Dialogue with Trypho 85.6 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 2:58–60

Ἔστιν οὖν ὁ λόγος, διʼ οὗ ἐσήμανα τὸν θεὸν δηλοῦν ὅτι καὶ ἄγγελοί εἰσιν ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ δυνάμεις, οὗτος· Αἰνεῖτε τὸν κύριον ἐκ τῶν οὐρανῶν, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ὑψίστοις· αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι αὐτοῦ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις αὐτοῦ. Καὶ Μνασέας δέ τις ὀνόματι τῶν συνελθόντων αὐτοῖς τῇ δευτέρᾳ ἡμέρᾳ εἶπε· Καὶ ἡμεῖς χαίρομεν πάλιν πειρωμένου σου τὰ αὐτὰ λέγειν διʼ ἡμᾶς.

English · Claude translation

“The word, then, by which I indicated that God shows that there are angels and powers in heaven, is this: ‘Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the highest; praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his powers.’” And one of those who had joined them on the second day, named Mnaseas, said, “We too are glad that you take pains to say the same things again for our sake.”
