O gij, die de schriften hebt ontvangen, thans is onze apostel onder u gekomen, om u vele plaatsen duidelijk te maken, welke gij in de schriften hebt verborgen, om vele anderen daarvan voorbij te gaan.

Daarmede zal God hem leiden, die zijn wil op de paden des vredes zal volgen, en hem voeren door zijn wil uit de duisternis tot het licht, hij zal hem richten op den rechten weg.
