ὁ οὖν Ζεὺς καὶ οἱ ἄλλοι θεοὶ ἐβουλεύοντο ὅτι χρὴ αὐτοὺς ποιῆσαι , καὶ ἠπόρουν · 11
οὔτε γὰρ ὅπως ἀποκτείναιεν εἶχον καὶ ὥσπερ τοὺς γίγαντας κεραυνώσαντες τὸ γένος ἀφανίσαιεν—αἱ τιμαὶ γὰρ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἱερὰ τὰ παρὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἠφανίζετο οὔτε ὅπως ἐῷεν ἀσελγαίνειν .
οὔτε γὰρ ὅπως ἀποκτείναιεν εἶχον καὶ ὥσπερ τοὺς γίγαντας κεραυνώσαντες τὸ γένος ἀφανίσαιεν—αἱ τιμαὶ γὰρ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἱερὰ τὰ παρὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἠφανίζετο οὔτε ὅπως ἐῷεν ἀσελγαίνειν .
Thereat
Zeus
and
the
other
gods
debated
what
they
should
do
,
and
were
perplexed
:
for
they
felt
they
could
not
slay
them
like
the
Giants
,
whom
they
had
abolished
root
and
branch
with
strokes
of
thunder—it
would
be
only
abolishing
the
honors
and
observances
they
had
from
men
;
nor
yet
could
they
endure
such
sinful
rioting
.
