To the Same Person.
If you wish to pay no penalty either here or there [in this life or the next], call yourself to account. For if we judged ourselves, we would not be judged. [cf. 1 Corinthians 11:31]
Εἰ βούλει μήτε ἐνταῦθα μήτε ἐκεῖ δοῦναι δίκην, ἀπαίτησον ἑαυτὸν εὐθύνας. Εἰ γὰρ ἑαυτοὺς ἐκρίνομεν, οὐκ ἂν ἐκρινόμεθα.
