- καὶ νῦν ἐγὼ μόνος εἰμὶ τῷ πατρὶ, καὶ φοβοῦμαι μὴ εἰσελθὼν ἀποθάνω καθὼς καὶ οἱ πρότεροι, ὅτι δαιμόνιον φιλεῖ αὐτὴν, ὃ οὐκ ἀδικεῖ οὐδένα πλὴν τῶν προσαγόντων αὐτῇ· καὶ νῦν ἐγὼ φοβοῦμαι μὴ ἀποθάνω, καὶ κατάξω τὴν ζωὴν τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ τῆς μητρός μου μετʼ ὀδύνης ἐπʼ ἐμοὶ εἰς τὸν τάφον αὐτῶν, καὶ υἱὸς ἕτερος οὐκ ὑπάρχει αὐτοῖς ὃς θάψει αὐτούς.
