GRK

Και ειπεν ο Αζαηλ, Δια τι κλαιεις, κυριε μου; Ο δε απεκριθη, Διοτι εξευρω οσα κακα θελεις καμει εις τους υιους Ισραηλ· τα οχυρωματα αυτων θελεις παραδωσει εις πυρ, και τους νεους αυτων θελεις αποκτεινει εν ρομφαια, και τα νηπια αυτων θελεις συντριψει, και τας εγκυμονουσας αυτων θελεις διασχισει.
