Guard this piety; let no heretic strip the Trinity
With this, O emperor, your pious power is walled about — keep it inviolate for us. Let no heretic, slipping into the Church, take away any one of the Trinity and leave what remains dishonored.
Greek
Ταύτῃ τειχίζεται, βασιλεῦ, τὸ τῆς εὐσεβείας σου κράτος· ταύτην ἡμῖν ἄσυλον διαφύλαττε. Μηδεὶς αἱρετικὸς, ὑποδὺς τὴν Ἐκκλησίαν, ἕν τι τῆς Τριάδος ἀφαιρείτω, καταλιμπάνων τὸ λειπόμενον ἄτιμον.
