48 Τῇ δὲ ἑξῆς ἡμέρᾀ ὄναρ θεασάμενος ὁ Ἰωάννης μίλια τρία ἔξω πυλῶν περιπατῆσαι, οὐκ ἠμέλησεν, ἀλλ᾿ ὄρθρου ἀναστὰς ἅμα τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς ἐπὶ τὴν ὁδὸν ἐβάδιζε. καί τις χωρικὸς νουθετούμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ ἰδίου πατρὸς ὅπως τὴν τοῦ συνεργοῦ
γυναῖκα μὴ λάβῃ ἑαυτῷ, ἀπειλοῦντος ἑαυτῷ σφάξαι ἐκείνου, ὁ νεανίσκος μὴ φέρων τὴν νουθεσίαν τοῦ πατρὸς λακτίσας αὐτὸν ἄφωνον ἔθηκεν. ἰδὼν δὲ τὸ συμβὰν ὁ᾿ Ἰωάννης εἶπε πρὸς τὸν κύριον· Κύριε, τούτου με ἕνεκεν ἐκέλευσας σήμερον ἐνθάδε ἐξελθεῖν;

[48] Now on the next day John, having seen in a dream that he must walk three miles outside the gates, neglected it not, but rose up early and set out upon the way, together with the brethren.

And a certain countryman who was admonished by his father not to take to himself the wife of a fellow labourer of his who threatened to kill him—this young man would not endure the admonition of his father, but kicked him and left him without speech (sc. dead). And John, seeing what had befallen, said unto the Lord: Lord, was it on this account that thou didst bid me come out hither to-day?
