Θείομεν· ἐμβαλοῦμεν.

Betacode

*qei/omen: e)mbalou=men.

cf. Etymologicum Magnum 449.32; also Hesychius theta194, where the gloss is poihsw=men.
The headword is aorist subjunctive active, epic first person plural, of ti/qhmi. It occurs four times in Homer, and is probably quoted here from Iliad 23.486 (cf. Latte on Hesychius).
For the gloss see also epsilon 1322.
