Previous Section Next Chapter

Türkçe

Sinodlar ve konseyler eklesiyastik meseleler dışında hiçbir konuyu ele alamaz veya karara bağlayamazlar ve bazı olağanüstü durumlarda mütevazı bir talep ya da sivil yargıç tarafından istirham edilmeleri halinde vicdanı tatmin etmek adına tavsiyede bulunulmadıkça, toplumu ilgilendiren sivil meselelere karışamazlar.

English

Synods and councils are to handle or conclude nothing but that which is ecclesiastical: and are not to intermeddle with civil affairs which concern the commonwealth, unless by way of humble petition in cases extraordinary; or by way of advice, for satisfaction of conscience, if they be thereunto required by the civil magistrate.
