[Dysart]

Curse translation:

Come to me, you who are in the earth, chthonic daemon, you who rule and bind, Abrasax; come, Hecate, three-form queen, Ereschigal; come to me, king Pluto, by your great name Yesemmigadon; come to me, chthonic Earth and chthonic Hermes and Pluto and queen Persephone.

I strike and strike down and nail down the tongue, the eyes, the wrath, the ire, the anger, the procrastination, the opposition of Iennys, whom the womb bore, so that he in no way oppose, so that he say or perform nothing adverse to Kyrilla, whom the womb bore, but rather that Iennys, whom the womb bore, be subject to her. Lady Phersephoneia, fulfi ll this perfect spell. (magical signs and letters)

[Hardraade]

Curse on Lenny.

The linked title details that the tablet was discovered in Jerusalem.

So there are still people around who can read cursive.

[DManA]

I’d wish for a million gold coins. Then wouldn’t old Iennys be jealous.

[HereInTheHeartland]

“May Obamacare be part of you and your household” is what the curse was translated to read.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

May your children vote Democrat.

[Ezekiel]

Found in a wrecked Roman villa, the 'magical tablet' is thought to have been created by a magician. The curse, written in Greek, which calls for help from six gods to punish a man called Iennys, is believed to play a role in a bitter legal dispute and was ordered by a woman named Kyrilla...

AND >>>

A translation of the ancient script reads: 'I strike and strike down and nail down the tongue, the eyes, the wrath, the ire, the anger, the procrastination, the opposition of Iennys.'

She asks the gods to make sure that Iennys is 'in no way oppose, so that he say or perform nothing adverse to Kyrilla...but rather that Iennys, whom the womb bore, be subject to her'.

Must have been a popular name for Democrats 'back in the day'...

2 Timothy 3:8-9

1 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

I’ve been cursed my whole life and I learned to use it against others by becoming their friends.
