τοὺς δ᾽ ἀπαμειβόμενος προσέφη ἑκάεργος Ἀπόλλων:
‘475ξεῖνοι, τοὶ Κνωσὸν πολυδένδρεον ἀμφενεμεσθε
τὸ πρίν, ἀτὰρ νῦν οὐκ ἔθ᾽ ὑπότροποι αὖτις ἔσεσθε
ἔς τε πόλιν ἐρατὴν καὶ δώματα καλὰ ἕκαστος
ἔς τε φίλας ἀλόχους: ἀλλ᾽ ἐνθάδε πίονα νηὸν
ἕξετ᾽ ἐμὸν πολλοῖσι τετιμένον ἀνθρώποισιν. 
Apollo reveals himself and orders the men to be his servants in the temple
474-479 Then far-working Apollo answered then and said: Strangers
who once dwelt about wooded Cnossos but now shall return no more each to
his loved city and fair house and dear wife; here shall you keep my rich
temple that is honoured by many men. 
εἰμὶ δ᾽ ἐγὼ Διὸς υἱός, Ἀπόλλων δ᾽ εὔχομαι εἶναι:
ὑμέας δ᾽ ἤγαγον ἐνθάδ᾽ ὑπὲρ μέγα λαῖμα θαλάσσης,
οὔ τι κακὰ φρονέων, ἀλλ᾽ ἐνθάδε πίονα νηὸν
ἕξετ᾽ ἐμὸν πᾶσιν μάλα τίμιον ἀνθρώποισι,
βουλάς τ᾽ ἀθανάτων εἰδήσετε, τῶν ἰότητι
αἰεὶ τιμήσεσθε διαμπερὲς ἤματα πάντα.
ἀλλ᾽ ἄγεθ᾽, ὡς ἂν ἐγὼ εἴπω, πείθεσθε τάχιστα: 
480-486 I am the son of Zeus; Apollo is my
name: but you I brought here over the wide gulf of the sea, meaning
you no hurt; nay, here you shall keep my rich temple that is greatly
honoured among men, and you shall know the plans of the deathless gods,
and by their will you shall be honoured continually for all time. And
now come, make haste and do as I say.
