| 11 And so, from then on, being led away from his heavy arrogance by the admonishment of a divine plague, he began to come to an understanding of himself, with his pains increasing through every moment. 12 And, when he could not even bear his own stench, he spoke in this way: “It is just to be subject to God, and a mortal should not consider himself equal to God.” 13 Then this wicked one prayed to the Lord, from whom, subsequently, there might be no mercy. 14 And the city, to which he was going in haste to pull it down to the ground and to make it a mass grave, he now wanted to make free. 15 And the Jews, whom he had said he certainly did not consider worthy even to be buried, but would deliver them to be torn apart by birds and wild beasts, and would exterminate them with their little ones, he now promised to make equal with the Athenians. 16 And even the holy temple, which before he had plundered, he would adorn with the best gifts, and increase the holy vessels, and pay out from his revenues the charges pertaining to the sacrifices. 17 Beyond these things, he would even become a Jew himself, and would travel through every place on earth and declare the power of God. |
