Greek text · Lake, LCL 24:108

Ὑπακούσωμεν οὖν τῷ παναγίῳ καὶ ἐνδόξῳ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ φυγόντες τὰς προειρημένας διὰ τῆς σοφίας τοῖς ἀπειθοῦσιν ἀπειλάς, ἵνα κατασκηνώσωμεν πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τὸ ὁσιώτατον τῆς μεγαλωσύνης αὐτοῦ ὄνομα.

English · Claude translation

Let us therefore obey his all-holy and glorious name, escaping the threats spoken by Wisdom against the disobedient, so that we may dwell in confidence in the most holy name of his majesty.
