Prevod

A bull pursued by a lion took refuge in a cave where some wild goats lived. As they struck and butted him, the bull said, “I put up with this not because I fear you, but because I fear the one standing outside the cave.” So it is that many, for fear of those stronger than themselves, endure insults from those who are weaker.

Izvirnik

Ταῦρος διωκόμενος ὑπὸ λέοντος κατέφυγεν εἰς σπήλαιον, ἐν ᾧ ἧσαν αἶγες ἄγριαι· τυπτόμενος δὲ ὑπʼ αὐτῶν ὁ ταῦρος καὶ κερατιζόμενος ἔφη· ,,οὐχ ὑμᾶς φοβούμενος ἀνέχομαι, ἀλλὰ τὸν πρὸ τοῦ σπηλαίου ἑστῶτα.“

Οὕτω πολλοὶ διὰ φόβον τῶν κρειττόνων τὰς ἐκ τῶν ἡττόνων ὕβρεις ὑπομένουσιν.
