Translation:
Of this [there are] 11 meanings.[1]
"The wise man must always be the same, in sharp pains, in the loss of a child, or in serious illnesses". Such was Apollonius of Tyana.[2]
And [there is] a proverb: "for the dice of Zeus always fall well."[3]
Fittingly equivalent to: the dice of Zeus always [fall] to the six.[4]
In reference to those who are fortunate deservedly and in everything. But some [say] in reference to those being deservedly punished.

Notes:
See also alpha 606.
[1] Etym. Magn. 31.24 says 12.
[2] Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 1.8.1 -- but referring to his teacher Apollonius of Chalcedon, not to the one from Tyana (alpha 3420).
[3] Sophocles fr. 809; cf. Zenobius 2.44, Diogenianus 1.58; Tosi [see under alpha 378] no.116.
[4] So the transmitted text, but it should probably read 'triple six'; cf. omicroniota 106, tau 1005.
