Summary: Pray to be found in love.

## Greek text

τίς ἱκανὸς ἐν αὐτῇ εὑρεθῆναι, εἰ μὴ οὓς ἂν καταξιώσῃ ὁ θεός; δεώμεθα οὖν καὶ αἰτώμεθα ἀπὸ τοῦ ἐλέους αὐτοῦ, ἵνα ἐν ἀγάπῃ εὑρεθῶμεν δίχα προσκλίσεως ἀνθρωπίνης, ἄμωμοι.

## English translation (Claude)

Who is worthy to be found in it, except those whom God counts worthy? Let us therefore beg and pray from his mercy that we may be found in love, without human partisanship, blameless.
