for Zeus out of heaven was himself his defender, and promised him honour and glory, alone as he was among so many warriors.
αὐτὸς γάρ οἱ ἀπ' αἰθέρος ἦεν ἀμύντωρ Ζεύς , ὅς μιν πλεόνεσσι μετ' ἀνδράσι μοῦνον ἐόντα τίμα καὶ κύδαινε .
αὐτός γάρ ἕ ἀπό αἰθήρ εἰμί ἀμύντωρ Ζεύς , ὅς μιν πλείων μετά ἀνήρ μόνος εἰμί τιμάω καί κυδαίνω .
