Greek Original:*tamieu/etai: dioikei=tai, a)pokru/ptei, fula/ttei. kai\ o(/ti swfro/nwn e)sti\n a)nqrw/pwn, o(/tan me\n eu)dokei=n pra/ttwsi, tamieu/esqai ta\s tu/xas: o(/tan d' ei)s tapeina\s kai\ fau/las e)/lqwsi, mhqe\n u(pome/nein a)genne/s.
Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at
Photius tau38 Theodoridis. The headword is present indicative middle (rather than passive, as the glossing shows), third person singular, of
tamieu/w (cf.
tau 62,
tau 63). Theodoridis is inclined to follow Naber in thinking it quoted from
Proverbs 29.11
LXX.

Dionysius of Halicarnassus,
Roman Antiquities 8.48.4 (but instead of the Suda's
eu)dokei=n pra/ttwsi, the text has
eu)= pra/ttein dokw=si "they seem to be well off").
