24

Philip, to the earth: Take him to the middle. And he sank further and said: One foot is frozen and the other hot—but I will not believe. The people wanted to stone him, but Philip checked them: This is for your salvation; if he repent, I will bring him up, but if not, he shall be swallowed into the deep.

Ὀργισθεὶς δὲ ὁ Φίλιππος εἶπεν· Ὦ γῆ σύσφιγξον αὐτὸν μέχρι τοῦ ὀμφαλοῦ. Καὶ εὐθὺς κατεσύρη. καὶ ἔλεγεν· Ὁ μὲν εἷς μου ποὺς κάτωθεν κρυσταλλοῦται, ὁ δὲ ἕτερος δεινῶς ἐκθερμαίνεται· ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὸ τῆς μαγείας σου Φίλιππε οὐ νικηθήσομαι. πλὴν οὖν ὅτι κακῶς κάτωθεν βασανίζομαι, ὅλως δὲ οὐ πιστεύω. Οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι ἠθέλησαν αὐτὸν λιθάσαι. ὁ δὲ Φίλιππος Μὴ οὗτως φησίν. τοῦτο γὰρ τέως γέγονεν, καταποθῆναι αὐτὸν μέχρι τοῦ ὀμφαλοῦ, ἵνα σωτηρία γένηται τῶν ψυχῶν ὑμῶν, ὅτι παρ᾽ ὀλίγον ἔμελλεν ἕλκειν ὑμᾶς ἐν τοῖς κακοῖς αὐτοῦ λόγοις πρὸς ἀπιστίαν. ἀλλ᾽ εἰ καὶ αὐτὸς μετενόησεν, ἀναγάγω αὐτὸν ἐκ τῆς γῆς πρὸς σωτηρίαν τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ· ἀλλὰ τάχα οὐκ ἔστιν ἄξιος σωτηρίας. ἐὰν οὖν ἐπιμείνῃ τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ, βλέψετε αὐτὸν βυθισθέντα κάτω εἰς τὴν ἄβυσσον· εἰ μὴ κύριος μέλλει τοὺς ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἐγείρειν, ἵνα ὁμολογήσωσιν ὅτι κύριος Ἰησοῦς. ἐν ἐκείνῃ γὰρ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ πᾶσα γλῶσσα ἐξομολογήσεται ὅτι κύριος Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ὅτι μία δόξα τοῦ πατρὸς καὶ τοῦ υἱοῦ σὺν ἁγίῳ πνεύματι εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας.
