It opened and the whole place was swallowed, about 7,000 men, save where the apostles were. And their voices came up, crying for mercy and saying: Lo, the cross enlighteneth us. And a voice was heard: I will have mercy on you in my cross of light.

Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξαίφνης ἠνεῴχθη ἡ ἄβυσσος, καὶ κατεπόθη ὅλος ὁ τόπος ἐν ᾧ ἐκάθητο ὁ ἀνθύπατος καὶ ὅλον τὸ ἱερόν, καὶ ἡ ἔχιδνα ἣν ἐσέβοντο, καὶ ὄχλοι πολλοὶ καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς τῆς ἐχίδνης, ὡς ἄνδρες ἑπτακισχίλιοι χωρὶς γυναικῶν καὶ παιδίων· πλὴν ὅπου ἦσαν οἱ ἀπόστολοι ἔμειναν ἀσάλευτοι· καὶ ὁ ἀνθύπατος κατεπόθη εἰς τὴν ἄβυσσον. καὶ ἦσαν αἱ φωναὶ αὐτῶν ἀνερχόμεναι κάτωθεν, μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ λέγοντες· Ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς ὁ τῶν ἐνδόξων σου ἀποστόλων θεός, ὅτι ἄρτι ὁρῶμεν τὰς κρίσεις τῶν μὴ ὁμολογησάντων τὸν σταυρωθέντα· ἰδού, ὁ σταυρὸς φωτίζει ἡμᾶς. Ἰησοῦ Χριστέ, φάνηθι ἡμῖν, ὅτι ζῶντες πάντες κατερχόμεθα εἰς τὸν ᾅδην καὶ μαστιζόμεθα, ὅτι ἀδίκως τοὺς σοὺς ἀποστόλους ἐσταυρώσαμεν. Καὶ ἠκούσθη φωνὴ λέγοντος· Ἵλεως ἔσομαι ὑμῖν ἐν τῷ φωτεινῷ μου σταυρῷ.
