Καὶ ἡμᾶς οὖν , ἔφη , προβίβασον ἐκ τῶν γραφῶν , ἵνα σοι πεισθῶμεν καὶ ἡμεῖς . Ηαθεῖν μὲν γὰρ καὶ ὡς πρόβατον ἀχθήσεσθαι οἴδαμεν· εἰ δὲ καὶ σταυρωθῆναι καὶ οὕτως αἰσχρῶς καὶ ἀτίμως ἀποθανεῖν διὰ τοῦ κεκατηραμένου ἐν τῷ νόμῳ θανάτου , ἀπόδειξον ἡμῖν· ἡμεῖς γὰρ οὐδ εἰς ἔννοιαν τούτου ἐλθεῖν δυνάμεθα
'Lead us on, then,' he said, 'from the Scriptures, so that we too may be persuaded by you. For that He was to suffer and to be led as a sheep, we know; but show us also that He was to be crucified and to die so shamefully and dishonorably by the death accursed in the law—for we cannot even bring ourselves to the thought of this.'
他說：「那麼，請你從聖經引導我們，好叫我們也被你說服。因為祂要受苦、要像羊被牽去，這我們知道；但請你也向我們證明，祂要被釘十字架，並要藉著律法所咒詛的那種死，這樣可恥、這樣羞辱地死去——因為我們連想都不敢往這上面想。」
3-90:2
Οἶσθα , ἔφην , ὅτι ὅσα εἶπον καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ προφῆται , ὡς καὶ ὡμολογήθη ὑμῖν , παραβολαῖς καὶ τύποις ἀπεκάλυψαν , ὡς μὴ ῥᾳδίως τὰ πλεῖστα ὑπὸ πάντων νοηθῆναι , κρύπτοντες τὴν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἀλήθειαν , ὡς καὶ πονέσαι τοὺς ζητοῦντας εὑρεῖν καὶ μαθεῖν . Οἱ δὲ ἔφησαν· Καὶ ὡμολογήθη ἡμῖν
'You know,' I said, 'that all that the prophets said and did—as has also been acknowledged by you—they revealed in parables and types, so that most of these things might not easily be understood by all, hiding the truth in them, so that those who seek to find and learn might have to labor.' And they said: 'This too has been acknowledged by us.'
我說：「你們知道，先知所說所行的一切——正如你們也已承認的——他們都是用比喻和預表來啟示的，使大多數的事不容易被眾人明白，將其中的真理隱藏起來，好叫那些尋求要找著、要學習的人必須勞苦。」他們說：「這一點我們也承認了。」
3-90:3
Ἀκούοις ἂν οὖν , φημί , τὸ μετὰ τοῦτο . Μωσῆς γὰρ πρῶτος ἐξέφανεν αὐτοῦ ταύτην τὴν δοκοῦσαν κατάραν δι ὧν ἐποίησε σημείων . Τίνων τούτων , ἔφη , λέγεις
'You would then hear,' I said, 'what comes next. For Moses was the first to make manifest this seeming curse of His by the signs which he did.' 'Of which of these,' he said, 'are you speaking?'
我說：「那麼，請聽接下來的話。因為摩西是第一個藉著他所行的神蹟，將祂這看似咒詛的事顯明出來的人。」他說：「你說的是這些神蹟中的哪一件？」
3-90:4
Ὅτε ὁ λαός , φημί , ἐπολέμει τῷ Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ ὁ τοῦ Ναυῆ υἱός , ὁ ἐπονομασθεὶς τῷ Ἰησοῦ ὀνόματι , τῆς μάχης ἦρχεν , αὐτὸς Μωσῆς ηὔχετο τῷ θεῷ τὰς χεῖρας ἑκατέρως ἐκπετάσας , Ὢρ δὲ καὶ Ἀαρὼν ὑπεβάσταζον αὐτὰς πανῆμαρ , ἵνα μὴ κοπωθέντος αὐτοῦ χαλασθῶσιν . Εἰ γὰρ ἐνεδεδώκει τι τοῦ σχήματος τούτου τοῦ τὸν σταυρὸν μιμουμένου , ὡς γέγραπται ἐν ταῖς Μωσέως γραφαῖς ὁ λαὸς ἡττᾶτο· εἰ δὲ ἐν τῇ τάξει ἔμενε ταύτῃ , Ἀμαλὴκ ἐνικᾶτο τοσοῦτον , καὶ ἰσχύων διὰ τοῦ σταυροῦ ἴσχυεν
'When the people,' I said, 'were warring against Amalek, and the son of Nun—who was surnamed by the name of Jesus—was leading the battle, Moses himself prayed to God, stretching out his hands on both sides, while Hur and Aaron held them up all day long, lest they should drop when he grew weary. For if he relaxed at all from this figure that imitates the cross, as it is written in the writings of Moses, the people were defeated; but if he remained in this posture, Amalek was overcome to that degree, and being strong, he prevailed through the cross.'
我說：「當百姓與亞瑪力人爭戰、嫩的兒子（就是那以耶穌之名為別名的）率領作戰時，摩西自己向神禱告，兩邊伸開雙手，戶珥和亞倫整日扶著他的手，免得他疲乏時手垂下來。因為他若稍微鬆懈這個模仿十字架的姿勢，正如摩西的著作所記，百姓就敗了；但他若保持這姿勢，亞瑪力人就照樣被勝過——他得勝，是藉著十字架得勝。」
3-90:5
Οὐ γάρ , ὅτι οὕτως ηὔχετο Μωσῆς , διὰ τοῦτο κρείττων ὁ λαὸς ἐγίνετο , ἀλλ ὅτι , ὲν ἀρχῇ τῆς μάχης τοῦ ὀνόματος τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ὄντος , αὐτὸς τὸ σημεῖον τοῦ σταυροῦ ἐποίει . Τίς γὰρ οὐκ ἐπίσταται ὑμῶν , ὅτι μάλιστα μὲν ἡ μετὰ οἴκτου καὶ δακρύων εὐχὴ μειλίσσεται τὸν θεὸν καὶ ἡ ἐν πρηνεῖ κατακλίσει καὶ ἐν γόνασιν ὀκλάσαντός τινος ; Τοῦτον δὲ τὸν τρόπον ἐπὶ λίθου καθεζόμενος οὔτε αὐτὸς ηὔξατο οὔτε ἄλλος ὕστερον . Ἔχει δὲ καὶ ὁ λίθος σύμβολον , ὡς ἀπέδειξα , πρὸς τὸν Χριστόν
'For it was not because Moses prayed in this way that the people became victorious, but because, while the name of Jesus was at the head of the battle, he himself made the sign of the cross. For who among you does not know that the prayer offered with lamentation and tears, and with a prostrate posture or on bended knees, most of all appeases God? Yet in this manner—seated upon a stone—neither did he himself pray, nor any other afterward. And the stone too has a symbol pointing to Christ, as I have shown.'
「百姓得勝，並不是因為摩西這樣禱告，乃是因為當耶穌的名作為爭戰的首領時，他自己作了十字架的記號。你們中間誰不知道，那帶著哀慟與眼淚、俯伏在地或屈膝跪下所獻的禱告，最能感動神呢？然而摩西這樣坐在石頭上，他自己沒有這樣禱告，後來也沒有別人這樣禱告。而那石頭也有指向基督的表記，正如我所表明的。」
