Translation

[Meaning him] curing, tending. "Healing sickly [human nature]."¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀλθαίνοντα· ἰώμενον, θεραπεύοντα. νοσοῦσαν ἀλθαίνοντα.

Betacode

*)alqai/nonta: i)w/menon, qerapeu/onta. nosou=san a)lqai/nonta.

Notes (1)

The headword -- present participle, masculine accusative singular, of the verb a)lqai/nw -- is presumably extracted from the quotation given.
1Metrical quotation more fully in the Etymologicum Simeonis (nosou=san a)lqai/nonta th\n brotw=n fu/sin), where it is attributed to John of Damascus.
