Demons And Souls


Μὴ παραδῷς με, φησὶν, εἰς ψυχὰς θλιβόντων με· ψυχαὶ γὰρ τῶν δαιμόνων τὰ ἀνόσια πάθη, ὦν εὐκτέον δυσθῆναι.

Ἅγιος Νειλος, Βιβλιον Πρῶτον, Ἐπιστολὴ ΡΟΗ''  Λιμενιῳ Μονακῳ

'Do not hand me over to souls that trouble me,' he says. 1 For the souls of demons are afflicted with impiety, that to be free from is what one should pray for.

Saint Nilus of Sinai, Book 1, Letter 178 to Limenius the Monk

1 Ps 26.12
