Κοιλάδα κλαυθμῶνος· ἐν ᾧ φανεὶς ἄγγελος τὴν τοῦ λαοῦ ἤλεγξε παρανομίαν καὶ εἰς κλαυθμὸν τὸ πλῆθος ἐκίνησε. κυρίως δὲ καὶ ἀληθῶς ὁ παρὼν βίος.

Notes
- Derived from Theodoret (PG 80.1541b) on Psalm 83 LXX (84 KJV), where the headword phrase appears. Manuscripts of the Septuagint vary between having the word for 'valley' in the accusative (as here, and cf. kappa 2537) and in the dative.
