“Any kind of death is sweet for the sake of the godly way of life of our ancestors!” Then he said to the tyrant,
‘How sweet is any kind of death for the religion of our ancestors!’
“How sweet is any kind of death for our ancestral piety!”
“How sweet is any kind of death for the religion of our fathers!”
