The king admitted the truth of this reasoning, and commended them. Full power was given them, without warrant or special commission, to destroy those who had transgressed the law of God boldly in every part of the king's dominions.
Greek · Brenton
Ὁ δὲ τἀληθὲς αὐτοὺς λέγειν παραδεξάμενος καὶ συναινέσας, ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἄδειαν πάντων, ὅπως τοὺς παραβεβηκότας τοῦ Θεοῦ τὸν νόμον ἐξολοθρεύσωσι κατὰ πάντα τὸν ὑπὸ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ τόπον μετὰ παῤῥησίας ἄνευ πάσης βασιλικῆς ἐξουσίας ἢ ἐπισκέψεως.
