Same or similar entry elsewhere: see the references at 
Photius lambda390 Theodoridis. The headword is third person singular, present indicative, of the rare verb 
loimeu/omai. It would seem to be quoted from somewhere, but more probably it is 
mis-quoted from 
Proverbs 19.19 
LXX, which has the corresponding subjunctive, 
loimeu/htai; cf. 
Hesychius s.v.
[1] Tentatively attributed by Adler to an ancient 
Life of Pythagoras. For 'bad mixture' cf. under 
nu 495. For the term 
katastasis see 
kappa 788 -- but for the sense of it used here, see LSJ s.v., II.2.
