The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians

Pharaoh and his army and all the rulers of Egypt, the chariots and their riders, were sunk in the Red Sea, and perished for no other cause than that their foolish hearts were hardened, after Unit signs and wonders had been wrought in the land of Egypt by God’s servant Moses.

The Master, brethren, is in need of nothing: he[*](Let the wrongdoers confess their sins) asks nothing of anyone, save that confession be made to him.

For David the chosen says:—I will confess to the Lord, and it shall please him more than a young calf that groweth horns and hoofs: let the poor see it and be glad.

And again he says Sacrifice to God a sacrifice of praise, and pay to the Highest thy vows; and call upon me in the day of thy affliction, and I will deliver thee and thou shalt glorify me.

For the sacrifice of God is a broken spirit.
