99 οὗτος οὖν ὁ σταυρὸς ὁ διαπηξάμενος τὰ πάντα λόγῳ καὶ διορίσας τὰ ἀπὸ γενέσεως καὶ κατωτέρω, εἶτα καὶ εἰς πάντα πηγάσας· οὐχ οὗτος δέ ἐστιν ὁ σταυρὸς ὃν μέλλεις ὁρᾶν
ξύλινον κατελθών ἐντεῦθεν· οὔτε ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἐπὶ τοῦ σταυροῦ, ὃν νῦν οὐχ ὁρῷς ἀλλὰ μόνον φωνῆς ἀκούεις. ὃ οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐνομίσθην, μὴ ὢν ὃ ἤμην ἄλλοις πολλοῖς ἀλλ᾿ ὅ τι με ¹ ἐροῦσιν ταπεινὸν καὶ οὐκ ἐμοῦ ἄξιον. ὡς οὖν ὁ τόπος τῆς ἀναπαύσεως οὔτε ὁρᾶται οὔτε λέγεται, πολλῷ μᾶλλον ὁ τούτου
κύριος οὔτε ὀφθήσομαι.

[99] This cross, then, is that which fixed all things apart (al. joined all things unto itself) by the (or a) word, and separate off the things that are from those that are below (lit. the things from birth and below it), and then also, being one, streamed forth into all things (or, made all flow forth. ¹). But this is not the cross of wood which thou wilt see when thou goest down hence: neither am I he that is on the cross, whom now thou seest not, but only hearest his (or a) voice. I was reckoned to be that which I am not, not being what I was unto many others: but they will call me (say of me) something else which is vile and not worthy of me. As, then, the place of rest is neither seen nor spoken of, much more shall I, the Lord thereof, be neither seen ⟨nor spoken of›.
