Greek text · Archambault 2:12–14

Καὶ ὁ Τρύφων εἶπεν· Ὅτι μὲν οὖν καὶ τοιαῦτα καὶ τοσαῦτα ἱκανὰ δυσωπῆσαί ἐστι, σύμφημί σοι· ὅτι δὲ ἀπαιτῶ σε τὸν λόγον, ὅν πολλάκις προεβάλλου, ἀποδεῖξαι, εἰδέναι σε βούλομαι. Περαίωσον οὖν καὶ αὐτὸν ἡμῖν, ἵνα ἴδωμεν καὶ ὡς ἐκεῖνον εἰς χριστὸν τοῦτον τὸν ὑμέτερον ἀποδεικνύεις εἰρῆσθαι· ἡμεῖς γὰρ εἰς Ἐζεκίαν αὐτὸν λέγομεν πεπροφητεῦσθαι.

English · Claude translation

And Trypho said, “I agree with you that such and so many things are enough to shame us; but I want you to know that I ask you to prove the passage which you have often put forward. Complete that for us too, so that we may see how you prove that it was spoken of this Christ of yours; for we say it was prophesied of Hezekiah.”
