Adler number: upsilon,73

Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A threat by those who are waiting and bidding [someone] to open [the door].[1]

Greek Original:
*(ue/: a)peilh\ braduno/ntwn kai\ a)noignu/nai keleuo/ntwn. kai\ ga\r *(/uen, a)nti\ tou= e)/brexen.
Notes:
[1] Tentatively identified by Adler as proverbial; in any event, obscure. The headword, as accented, is attested only as the vocative of ui(o/s ("son"), not obviously what is intended here. Something is probably missing.
[2] Imperfect of u(/ei "it rains," cf. upsilon 121, upsilon 126, upsilon 127. Likewise or similarly in other lexica (references at Photius upsilon29 Theodoridis); quoted from Homer, Iliad 12.25.
