Examples

  • τἀναντία δὲ τούτων καὶ ἀληθῆ προελθὼν Ιἑρεμίασ προεφήτευσεν, ὡσ ποιοῦσι μὲν κακῶσ καὶ ἐξαπατῶσι τὸν βασιλέα, παρὰ δὲ τῶν Αἰγυπτίων οὐδὲν αὐτοῖσ ἐστιν ὄφελοσ, ἀλλὰ νικήσασ αὐτοὺσ ὁ Βαβυλώνιοσ ἐπιστρατεύσειν εἰσ τὰ Ιἑροσόλυμα μέλλει, καὶ πολιορκήσει τε καὶ τῷ λιμῷ διαφθερεῖ τὸν δῆμον, καὶ τοὺσ περιλειφθέντασ αἰχμαλώτουσ ἄξει, καὶ τὰσ οὐσίασ διαρπάσει, καὶ τὸν ἐν τῷ ναῷ πλοῦτον ἐκφορήσασ ἔτι καὶ αὐτὸν ἐμπρήσει καὶ κατασκάψει τὴν πόλιν, καὶ δουλεύσομεν αὐτῷ καὶ τοῖσ ἐγγόνοισ αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ ἔτη ἑβδομήκοντα.
