“What is it that I am asking? For you not to keep silent if ever I sin as a human being or dismiss without concern my situation, leaving me unschooled in better ways. Instead, correct and reform me in a loving way.… Do not put me beyond your care.”
Diodorus of Tarsus, 4th c. — COMMENTARY ON PSALM 27
