Translation

[Meaning] it is necessary to believe.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Πιστέον· δεῖ πιστεύειν.

Betacode
*piste/on: dei= pisteu/ein. 

Notes

  1. No equivalent entry in other lexica. The only attestation before Byzantine times is one instance in Galen, perhaps a misspelling (De curandi ratione per venae sectionem Kühn 11.309.13). The classical form is peiste/on (pi 1479).
