Βασιλεύς
εἴ τοι κρατοῦσι παῖδες Αἰγύπτου σέθεν
νόμῳ πόλεως , φάσκοντες ἐγγύτατα γένους
εἶναι , τίς ἂν τοῖσδ᾽ ἀντιωθῆναι θέλοι;
390
δεῖ τοί σε φεύγειν κατὰ νόμους τοὺς οἴκοθεν,
ὡς οὐκ ἔχουσιν κῦρος οὐδὲν ἀμφὶ σοῦ.

Βασιλεύς
δεῖ τοι βαθείας φροντίδος σωτηρίου,
δίκην κολυμβητῆρος , ἐς βυθὸν μολεῖν
δεδορκὸς ὄμμα , μηδ᾽ ἄγαν ᾠνωμένον,

αὐτοῖσί θ᾽ ἡμῖν ἐκτελευτήσει καλῶς,
καὶ μήτε δῆρις ῥυσίων ἐφάψεται
μήτ᾽ ἐν θεῶν ἕδραισιν ὧδ᾽ ἱδρυμένας
ἐκδόντες ὑμᾶς τὸν πανώλεθρον θεὸν
