19:1
Τὸν γὰρ Ἰακώβου θρόνον, τοῦ πρώτου τῆς Ἱεροσολύμων ἐκκλησίας τὴν ἐπισκοπὴν πρὸς αὐτοῦ τοῦ σωτῆρος καὶ τῶν ἀποστόλων ὑποδεξαμένου, ὃν καὶ ἀδελφὸν τοῦ Χριστοῦ χρηματίσαι οἱ θεῖοι λόγοι περιέχουσιν, εἰς δεῦρο πεφυλαγμένον οἱ τῇδε κατὰ διαδοχὴν περιέποντες ἀδελφοὶ σαφῶς τοῖς πᾶσιν ἐπιδείκνυνται οἷον περὶ τοὺς ἁγίους ἄνδρας τοῦ θεοφιλοῦς ἕνεκεν οἵ τε πάλαι καὶ οἱ εἰς ἡμᾶς ἔσωζόν τε καὶ ἀποσώζουσι σέβας. καὶ ταῦτα μὲν ταύτῃ.
For the throne of James, who first received the episcopate of the church at Jerusalem from the Saviour Himself and the apostles, and whom the divine writings record to have been called the brother of Christ, having been preserved to this day, the brethren who there succeed in order, cherishing it, clearly show to all what reverence both the ancients and those of our own day kept and keep for holy men on account of their love of God. And so much for these things.
因為雅各的寶座——他是頭一個從救主自己並眾使徒領受耶路撒冷教會主教之職的，神聖經卷也記載他被稱為基督的兄弟——這寶座既被保存至今，那裡按次序接續、珍愛它的弟兄們，便向眾人清楚顯明：古人與我們這時代的人，為著聖者愛神之故，曾向他們、且仍向他們存著何等的敬重。關於這些事，就說這些。
