36:1
Videte vocationem vestram, fratres charissimi (1 Cor. I, 26). Venire ad eremum summa perfectio est; non perfecte in eremo vivere, summa damnatio est. Quid prodest, si in loco quies teneatur, et inquietudo in corde vers tur ? Si in habitatione silentium si, etc.
至親愛的弟兄們，看你們的蒙召（哥林多前書一26）。來到曠野乃是至高的成全；在曠野中不完全地度日卻是至深的沉淪。倘若一處之中保持了安靜，而不安卻在心中翻攪，這有何益處呢？倘若在住所中有靜默，云云。
Behold your calling, most beloved brethren (1 Cor. 1:26). To come to the desert is the highest perfection; not to live perfectly in the desert is the highest damnation. What does it profit, if quiet be kept in a place, while restlessness is turned about within the heart? If there be silence in the dwelling, and so forth.
