or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting: he that giveth, let him do it with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.

He who has the power of comforting, let him do so; he who gives, let him give freely; he who has the power of ruling, let him do it with a serious mind; he who has mercy on others, let it be with joy.

ειτε προτρεπει τις, εις την προτροπην· ο μεταδιδων, ας μεταδιδη εν απλοτητι, ο προισταμενος ας προισταται μετ' επιμελειας, ο ελεων ας ελεη εν ιλαροτητι.

Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
