Brenton 1851
O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy, and unto him whose strength faileth, that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things, and to him that despaireth, and hath lost patience!
Greek · Brenton
Ὦ θάνατε, καλόν σου τὸ κρίμα ἐστὶν ἀνθρώπῳ ἐπιδεομένῳ καὶ ἐλασσουμένῳ ἰσχύϊ, ἐσχατογήρῳ, καὶ περισπωμένῳ περὶ πάντων, καὶ ἀπειθοῦντι, καὶ ἀπολωλεκότι ὑπομονήν.
