Translation
Confiscation is taking and keeping things which belong to others; and when we do not give alms, we are punished in the same way as those who who are confiscating.

Εὐποιία. ὅτι ἀποστέρησίς ἐστι τὸ τὰ ἀλλοτρία λαβόντας κατέχειν, καὶ ὅταν ἐλεημοσύνην μὴ παρασχῶμεν, ἐν ἴσῳ τοῖς ἀποστεροῦσι κολαζόμεθα.
