Canon 11 |
|
Πάντας τοὺς πένητας καὶ δεομένους ἐπικουρίας, μετὰ δοκιμασίας, ἐπιστολίοις εἴτουν εἰρηνικοῖς ἐκκλησιαστικοῖς μονοῖς ὡρίσαμεν ὁδεύειν, καὶ μὴ συστατικοῖς, διὰ τὸ τὰς συστατικὰς ἐπιστολὰς προσήκειν τοῖς οὖσιν ἐν ὑπολήψει μόνοις παρέχεσθαι προσώποις. |

Omnes pauperes, et auxilio indigentes, cum probatione, sive cum pacificis ecclesiasticis litteris solis iter facere definimus, non cum commendatitiis, quia commendatitias litteras iis solis personis quae in aliquam suspicionem venerunt praeberi oportet. |

Τὸ τῆς συνωμοσίας ἢ φρατρίας ἔγκλημα καὶ παρὰ τῶν ἔξω νόμων πάντη κεκώλυται· πολλῷ δὴ μᾶλλον ἐν τῇ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦτο γίνεσθαι ἀπαγορεύειν προσήκει. Εἴ τινες τοίνυν κληρικοὶ ἢ μονάζοντες εὑρεθεῖεν, ἢ συνομνύμενοι ἢ φρατριάζοντες, ἢ κατασκευὰς τυρεύοντες ἐπισκόποις ἢ συγκληρικοῖς, ἐκπιπτέτωσαν πάντη τοῦ οἰκείου βαθμοῦ. |

Conjurationis vel sodalitatis crimen externis etiam legibus omnino prohibitum est: multo magis in Ecclesia Dei hoc fieri prohibere oportet. Si qui ergo clerici vel monachi inventi fuerint, vel conjurantes, vel sodalitates facientes, vel insidias struentes episcopis, aut conclericis, proprio gradu omnino excidant. |
