If a god shall subdue the lordly suitors to me, I will bring you each a wife, and will give you possessions and a house built near my own,
εἴ χ' ὑπ' ἐμοί γε θεὸς δαμάσῃ μνηστῆρας ἀγαυούς , ἄξομαι ἀμφοτέροις ἀλόχους καὶ κτήματ' ὀπάσσω οἰκία τ' ἐγγὺς ἐμεῖο τετυγμένα ·
εἰ ἄν ὑπό ἐγώ γε θεός δαμάζω μνηστήρ ἀγαυός , ἄγω ἀμφότερος ἄλοχος καί κτῆμα ὀπάζω οἰκίον τε ἐγγύς ἐγώ τεύκω ·
