Translation

Opposite thee, I will stand face-to-face with thee. "In the morning I will come and stand before thee."1 To say this [is] fitting for those who have lived like Elijah and endured misfortunes.2

Greek original · Adler’s text

Παραστήσομαι· ἐναντίον σοῦ, ἐνώπιόν σου στήσομαι. τὸ πρωῒ παραστήσομαί σοι. τοῦτο δὲ ἁρμόδιον λέγειν τοῖς κατὰ Ἠλίαν βεβιωκόσι καὶ παθῶν ὑπερανεστηκόσι.
