Tlepolemus, your sire truly destroyed sacred Ilios through the folly of the lordly man, Laomedon, who chid with harsh words him that had done him good service, and rendered him not the mares for the sake of which he had come from afar.
Τληπόλεμ' ἤτοι κεῖνος ἀπώλεσεν Ἴλιον ἱρὴν ἀνέρος ἀφραδίῃσιν ἀγαυοῦ Λαομέδοντος , ὅς ῥά μιν εὖ ἕρξαντα κακῷ ἠνίπαπε μύθῳ , οὐ δ' ἀπέδωχ' ἵππους , ὧν εἵνεκα τηλόθεν ἦλθε .
Τληπόλεμος ἤτοι κεῖνος ἀπόλλυμι Ἴλιος ἱρός ἀνήρ ἀφραδία ἀγαυός Λαομέδων , ὅς ἄρα μιν εὖ ἔρδω κακός ἐνίπτω μῦθος , οὐ δέ ἀποδίδωμι ἵππος , ὅς ἕνεκα τηλόθεν ἔρχομαι .
