Dialogue with Trypho 117.1 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 2:198–200

Πάσας οὖν διὰ τοῦ ὀνόματος τούτου θυσίας, ἃς παρέδωκεν Ἰησοῦς ὁ Χριστὸς γίνεσθαι, τουτέστιν ἐπὶ τῇ εὐχαριστίᾳ τοῦ ἄρτου καὶ τοῦ ποτηρίου, τὰς ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ τῆς γῆς γινομένας ὑπὸ τῶν χριστιανῶν, προλαβὼν ὁ θεὸς μαρτυρεῖ εὐαρέστους ὑπάρχειν αὐτῷ· τὰς δὲ ὑφʼ ὑμῶν καὶ διʼ ἐκείνων ὑμῶν τῶν ἱερέων γινομένας ἀπαναίνεται, λέγων· Καὶ τὰς θυσίας ὑμῶν οὐ προσδέξομαι ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν· διότι ἀπὸ ἀνατολῆς ἡλίου ἕως δυσμῶν τὸ ὄνομά μου δεδόξασται, λέγει, ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, ὑμεῖς δὲ βεβηλοῦτε αὐτό.

English · Claude translation

“God, then, testifies beforehand that all the sacrifices offered through this name, which Jesus the Christ handed down to be done, that is, in the Eucharist of the bread and the cup, which are made in every place of the earth by the Christians, are pleasing to him; but he rejects those made by you and through those priests of yours, saying: ‘And I will not accept your sacrifices from your hands; for from the rising of the sun to its setting my name has been glorified,’ he says, ‘among the nations, but you profane it.’
