[68] ταῦτα φρονῶν ἐξετασθήσομαι μηδὲν ὑποστέλλων μηδὲ συγκρύπτων φωρὸς τρόπον, ἀλλὰ τὸ συνειδὸς αὐγάζων ὡς ἐν ἡλίῳ
καὶ φωτί· φῶς γὰρ ἡ ἀλήθεια· φοβηθήσομαι δ’ οὐδὲν ὧν ἂν ἐπανατείνηται, κἂν θάνατον ἀπειλῇ· θανάτου γὰρ ἐμοὶ κακὸν ἀργαλεώτερον ¹ ὑπόκρισις. ἣν ὑπομενῶ τοῦ χάριν;

Translations (1)

On the Life of a Man occupied with Affairs of State, or on Joseph First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, volume 2. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1854.) — 68 focus

[68] And while I cherish these sentiments I shall be open to examination, concealing nothing, and not hiding any thing like a thief, but keeping my conscience clear as in the light of the sun and of day; for the truth is the light. And I shall fear none of the evils with which they menace me, not even if they threaten me with death; for hypocrisy is in my eyes a more grievous evil than death.
