Translation
Meaning [he] brought a charge of false witness. But rarely it can also apply to bringing a charge of murder, as Antiphon [sc. illustrates].1 But in the active voice e)pe/skhyen ["commanded"] means he/she enjoined.2 As to "I command" meaning I appeal to some god in what I say, in effect I conjure, see Andocides and Lysias.3
Also [sc. attested is] '[he] denounced', [meaning he] harmed.
