Saint Ignatius of Antioch (30-107)

Epistle to the Magnesians

Shorter Version

Translated by Alexander Roberts and James Donaldson

Chapter 12


May I enjoy you in all respects, if indeed I be worthy! For though I am bound, I am not worthy to be compared to any of you that are at liberty. I know that ye are not puffed up, for ye have Jesus Christ in yourselves. And all the more when I commend you, I know that ye cherish modesty of spirit; as it is written, “The righteous man is his own accuser.”
