muito claro
οὐκοῦν περιφανῶς ἐπιδεικνύω ὑμῖν καὶ αὐτοὺς τοὺς οἰκείους Νεαίρας ταυτησὶ καταμαρτυρήσαντας αὐτὴν ξένην εἶναι, Στέφανόν τε τουτονὶ τὸν ἔχοντα ταύτην νυνὶ καὶ συνοικοῦντ’ αὐτῇ καὶ Φράστορα τὸν λαβόντα τὴν θυγατέρα.
Therefore I clearly demonstrate to you that the very members of Neaira’s own family have furnished proof that she is an alien, both Stephanos here who has her
now and is living with her and Phrastor who married her daughter.
ὁ μὲν γὰρ Στέφανος καταμαρτυρεῖ Νεαίρας διὰ τὸ⁀μὴ⁀ἐθελῆσαι ἀγωνίσασθαι ὑπὲρ τῆς θυγατρὸς περὶ τῆς προικός, …
For Stephanos bears witness against Neaira because he was not willing to go to court on behalf
of her daughter about her dowry, …
[ὁ μὲν γὰρ Στέφανος καταμαρτυρεῖ Νεαίρας …] Φράστωρ δὲ μαρτυρεῖ ἐκβαλεῖν τε τὴν θυγατέρα τὴν Νεαίρας ταυτησὶ καὶ οὐκ ἀποδοῦναι τὴν προῖκα, …
[For Stephanos bears witness against Neaira…] and Phrastor bears witness that he divorced the daughter of this Neaira and did not give back the dowry, …
ἔπειτα δὲ [ὁ Φράστωρ] αὐτὸς ὑπὸ Νεαίρας καὶ Φανοῦς πεισθῆναι, διὰ τὴν ἀσθένειαν καὶ τὸ⁀ἄπαις⁀εἶναι καὶ τὴν ἔχθραν τὴν πρὸς τοὺς οἰκείους, ἀναλαβεῖν τὸ παιδίον καὶ υἱὸν ποιήσασθαι, …
and then [Phrastor] was himself persuaded by Neaira and Phano, on account of his sickness and childlessness and his hatred of his relations, to take back the child and to make him his son,
[Φράστωρ] αὐτὸς δὲ εἰσαγαγεῖν τὸν παῖδα εἰς τοὺς γεννήτας, ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ὀμόσαι τὸν υἱὸν ἐξ ἀστῆς γυναικὸς εἶναι·
and he [Phrastor] himself introduced the boy to the members of the clan, but did not swear that he
was the son of a citizen woman,
ὕστερον δὲ γῆμαι γυναῖκα ἀστὴν κατὰ τὸν νόμον.
and that he later married a citizen wife according to the law.
αὗται δὲ αἱ πράξεις, περιφανεῖς οὖσαι, μεγάλας μαρτυρίας διδόασιν, ὅτι ᾔδεσαν ξένην οὖσαν τὴν Νέαιραν ταυτηνί.
These actions are perfectly clear and form great proofs that they knew that this Neaira was an alien.
εἰ γὰρ ἀστή ἦν Νέαιρα, οὐκ ἂν ἐξεπέμφθη ἡ Φανώ. Φανὼ γὰρ ἀστὴ ἂν ἦν.
For if Neaira had been a citizen, Phano would not
have been sent away. For Phano would have been a citizen.
καὶ δὴ καί, εἰ Φανὼ ἀστὴ ἦν, οἱ γεννῆται οὐκ ἂν ἀπεψηφίσαντο τοῦ παιδὸς αὐτῆς.
And furthermore, if Phano had been a citizen, the clan members would not have voted against her son.
διὰ οὖν τὸ⁀μὴ⁀ἐθέλειν ὀμόσαι τὸν Φράστορα καὶ τὸ⌈ τοὺς γεννήτας τοῦ παιδὸς ⌉ἀποψηφίσασθαι, Στέφανος δῆλός ἐστιν ἀδικῶν καὶ ἀσεβῶν εἴς τε τὴν πόλιν καὶ τοὺς θεούς.
Because of the fact that Phrastor was not willing to swear an oath, and because the members of the clan voted against the boy, Stephanos is clearly committing
an injustice towards the city and irreverence towards the gods.
