Translation
[Used] with a dative, but also with an accusative. "[...] and to worship you, the sun of righteousness."1
Greek original · Adler’s text
Προσκυνεῖ· δοτικῇ, καὶ αἰτιατικῇ δέ. καὶ σὲ προσκυνεῖν τὸν ἥλιον τῆς δικαιοσύνης.

Notes (1)
- The headword -- present indicative active, third person singular, of
proskune/w (see also pi 2747) -- is normally construed with a dative object. The quotation given demonstrates the syntactical assertion that it can also be construed with an accusative object. - 1Quotation not identified by Adler but identifiable via the TLG as coming from a troparion (hymn) for the Feast of the Nativity; it alludes to Malachi 3:20 LXX, where the phrase 'sun of righteousness' appears. ↩
