[81] ἐὰν γὰρ οἷα τὰ βουλεύματα τοιοῦτοι οἱ λόγοι καὶ οἷα τὰ λεγόμενα τοιαίδε
αἱ πράξεις ὦσι, καὶ ταῦτα ἀλλήλοις ἀντακολουθῇ δεθέντα ἁρμονίας ἀλύτοις δεσμοῖς, εὐδαιμονία κρατεῖ, τουτέστιν ἡ ἀψευδεστάτη σοφία καὶ φρόνησις, σοφία μὲν [γὰρ] πρὸς θεραπείαν θεοῦ, φρόνησις δὲ πρὸς ἀνθρωπίνου βίου διοίκησιν.

[81] For if such as the designs are, such also are the speeches; and such as the words spoken, such also are the actions; and if these things are bound up with each other, reciprocally preceding and following one another through the indissoluble bonds of harmony; then happiness prevails, and this is the truest wisdom and prudence. For wisdom has reference to the service of God, and prudence to the regulation of human life.
