Burn what remains
And the night is taken of the present world, and the day of the one to come, as the same apostle bears witness, saying: "The night has advanced, and the day has drawn near." (Romans 13:12)
Greek
[ἡ νὺξ δὲ] ἐπὶ τοῦ ἐνεστῶτος [κόσμο]υ λαμβάνεται, ἡ δὲ ἡ[μέρα ἐ]πὶ μέλλοντος, ὡς ὁ αὐ[τὸς ἀπ]όστολος μαρτυρεῖ λέγων· ["Ἡ νὺξ] προέκοψεν, ἡ δὲ ἡμέρα [ἤγγικε]ν".
