[22] 6 Ἀλλὰ σκόπει πάλιν, ὅτι εὐλαβείᾳ τὸ θαρρεῖν ἀνακέκραται. τὸ μὲν γὰρ „τί μοι δώσεις;” (Gen. 15, 2) θάρσος ἐμφαίνει, τὸ δὲ „δέσποτα” εὐλάβειαν. εἰωθὼς δὲ χρῆσθαι μάλιστα διτταῖς ἐπὶ τοῦ
αἰτίου προσρήσεσι, τῇ θεὸς καὶ τῇ κύριος, οὐδετέραν νῦν παρείληφεν, ¹² ἀλλὰ τὴν δεσπότου, λίαν εὐλαβῶς καὶ σφόδρα κυρίως· καίτοι συνώνυμα ταῦτ’ εἶναι λέγεται, κύριος καὶ δεσπότης.

But consider again that confidence is tempered with prudent caution; for the question, "What wilt thou give to me?" ¹ displays confidence, and the addition, "O master," ² exhibits prudent confidence. And being in the habit of using two causes or two appellations, with respect to the cause of all things, namely the title of Lord, and also that of God, he has in this instance used neither of them, but calls them by the name of master, speaking with caution and with exceeding propriety; and indeed the two appellations lord and master, are said to be synonymous.
