Translation
"I myself think this man is made cowardly by his conscience, since he is not being just towards the emperor; he fears what he would deserve to have happen to him, as if he were already suffering these things."1
Greek original · Adler’s text
Δίκαιος· δοκῶ δὲ ἐγὼ τοῦτον δειλιᾶν τῷ ξυνειδέναι, οὐ δίκαιος ὢν περὶ βασιλέα· ὧν ἐπάξιος τυχεῖν ἦν, ταῦτα ὡς καὶ πεισόμενος ἤδη δειμαίνει.
