Thanks... well, since this forum is full of people who were dead and came back to life, I think it is all right to resurrect dead threads

So, if I am to post the next, who wants to try... Ancient Greek...

(since it would have to be in another alphabet, I used transliteration; I am leaving out "H" which is in Ancient Greek written... well... another way and I think does not matter now and certainly does not play role in this quotation)

"De epi tou aionos nyn autos epebouleusen ten fthoran sou, imatismenos to prosopon tes filias, prin autos etoimos echein."

Happy deciphering

(if it would seem too hard to you, I might provide you with some hints, but we'll see if it would be necessary)
