History of the Church 1:331-32.

¹ Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you concerning the ApocryphaThere are many things contained therein that are true, and it is mostly translated correctly;

² There are many things contained therein that are not true, which are interpolations by the hands of men.

³ Verily, I say unto you, that it is not needful that the Apocrypha should be translated.

⁴ Therefore, whoso readeth it, let him understand, for the Spirit manifesteth truth;

⁵ And whoso is enlightened by the Spirit shall obtain benefit therefrom;

⁶ And whoso receiveth not by the Spirit, cannot be benefited. Therefore it is not needful that it should be translated. Amen.
