Brenton 1851
And now, O lord the king, this is that which I require, and which I desire of thee, and this is the princely liberality proceeding from thyself: I desire therefore that thou make good the vow, the performance whereof with thine own mouth thou hast vowed to the King of heaven.
Greek · Brenton
Καὶ νῦν τοῦτό ἐστιν ὅ σε ἀξιῶ, κύριε βασιλεῦ, καὶ ὃ αἰτοῦμαί σε, καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν, ἡ μεγαλωσύνη ἡ παρὰ σοῦ· δέομαι οὖν ἵνα ποιήσῃς τὴν εὐχὴν, ἣν ηὔξω τῷ βασιλεῖ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, ποιῆσαι ἐκ στόματός σου.
