[244] ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἐναβρυνόμενος καὶ σεμνυνόμενος ταυτὶ διεξῆλθον, ἀλλ’ ἵν’ αἴσθησθε, ὅτι τῶν τηλικούτων οὐδεὶς ἔμελλεν ἀνθρώπων αἴτιος ἔσεσθαι δούλῳ καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα δεσμώτῃ γενομένῳ — καὶ γὰρ ἐδέθην ποτὲ συκοφαντηθείς —, ἀλλ’ ὁ τὰς ἐσχάτας συμφοράς τε καὶ δυσπραγίας
μεθαρμοσάμενος εἰς τὰς ἀνωτάτω καὶ πρώτας εὐτυχίας θεὸς ἦν, ¹ ᾧ πάντα δυνατά.

On the Life of a Man occupied with Affairs of State, or on Joseph First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, volume 2. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1854.) — 244 focus

[244] "And I have not detailed all this to you from a wish to exalt myself or to give myself airs, but that you may know that it is no one of you or any man whatsoever that has been the cause of my being first a slave and afterwards a prisoner. For on one occasion a false accusation was brought against me, and I was thrown into prison. But he who changed that extremity of calamity and misfortune into the highest and most complete good fortune was God, with whom all things are possible.
