Greek Original:
Θαλπόμενοι: ἐξαπατώμενοι. Ἰώσηπος: τοὺς δὲ ὑποθαλπομένους ἐλπίδι συγγνώμης, εἰ παρακρατηθεῖεν, ἐπιλελῆσθαι τῶν ἰδίων τολμημάτων.
Note:
Josephus, Jewish War 4.221 (a speech in indirect discourse: web address 1). For the headword verb cf. theta 27, theta 33; the Suda wrongly quotes the Josephus passage with a compound (hypo-) form of it.
