[170] But to prove that I am speaking the truth, please take this decree, and call Temenides and those who were my comrades in the expedition in the service of the city, and call Phocion, the general, not yet to plead for me,¹ if it please the jury, but as a witness who cannot speak falsely without exposing himself to the libellous attacks of my prosecutor.

[170] ὅτι δὲ ἀληθῆ λέγω, λαβέ μοι τοῦτο τὸ ψήφισμα, καὶ κάλει τὸν Τεμενίδην καὶ τοὺς συνεστρατευμένους μοι τὰς ὑπὲρ τῆς πόλεως στρατείας καὶ Φωκίωνα τὸν στρατηγόν, μήπω συνήγορον, ἂν¹ τούτοις συνδοκῇ, ἀλλʼ ὑπεύθυνον τῷ συκοφάντῃ μάρτυρα, ἐὰν ψεύδηται.
