František Marek ()

10Potom hned vstoupiv na lodí s učedlníky svými, přeplavil se do krajin Dalmanutských. 11I vyšli farizeové a počali se s ním hádati, hledajíce od něho znamení s nebe, pokoušejíce ho. 12A on vzdech duchem svým, dí: Co pokolení toto znamení hledá? Amen pravím vám: nebude dáno znamení pokolení tomuto. 13A opustiv je, vstoupil zase na lodí, a plavil se přes moře.
Mk 8, 10 – 13
(6630, Biblí svatá, podle kral. vydání 1579-1593, Kutná Hora 1940, NZ, s. 45.)

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (-5 - +65)

Epistula LXXVIII.
Toto contra ille pugnet animo; vincetur, si cesserit, vincet, si se contra dolorem suum intenderit. Nunc hoc plerique faciunt, adtrahunt in se ruinam, cui obstandum est. Istud quod premit, quod inpendet, quod urget, si subducere te coeperis, sequetur et gravius incumbet; si contra steteris et obniti volueris, repelletur. …
[Let such a man fight against them with all his might: if he once gives way, he will be vanquished; but if he strives against his sufferings, he will conquer. As it is, however, what most men do is to drag down upon their own heads a falling ruin which they ought to try to support. If you begin to withdraw your support from that which thrusts toward you and totters and is ready to plunge, it will follow you and lean more heavily upon you; but if you hold your ground and make up your mind to push against it, it will be forced back. …]

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (60)

Itaque dum incipit esse mentis tuae, interim hoc consilio sapientium utere, ut magis ad rem existimes pertinere, quis, quam quid acceperit.
(6307, Ad Lucilium epistulae morales I, Cambridge Mass. + London1979, LIX, p. 132.)
Therefore, while you are beginning to call your mind your own, meantime apply this maxim of the wise: consider that it is more important who receives a thing, than what it is he receives.
(tamtéž, str. 131, překlad: Richard M. Gummere.)

Jan ()

28I řekli jemu: Jakéž pak ty znamení činíš, abychom viděli a věřili tobě? Co děláš? 31Otcové naši jedli mannu na poušti, jakož psáno jest : Chléb s nebe dal jim jísti. 32Tedy řekl Ježíš : Amen, amen pravím vám : Ne Mojžíš dal vám chléb s nebe, ale Otec můj vám dává ten chléb s nebe pravý. 33Nebo chléb Boží ten jest, kterýž sstupuje s nebe a dává život světu.
