ἵνα δὲ ταύτης τῆς ἡμετέρας νομοθεσίας καὶ τῆς καλοκἀγαθίας ὅρος πρὸς γνῶσιν πάντων ἐνεχθῆναι δυνηθῇ, ταῦτα τὰ ὑφʼ ἡμῶν γραφέντα πανταχοῦ προθεῖναι καὶ εἰς γνῶσιν πάντων ἀγαγεῖν ἀκόλουθόν ἐστιν, ὅπως ταύτης τῆς ἡμετέρας καλοκἀγαθίας ἡ νομοθεσία μηδένα λαθεῖν δυνηθῇ.”

English · Claude translation

And so that the terms of this our legislation and benevolence may be brought to the knowledge of all, it is fitting that what we have written be posted everywhere and brought to the knowledge of all, so that the legislation of this our benevolence may escape no one.”
