meaning of θριαμβεύω in 2 Cor 2:14

More Songs in Ancient Greek: O Come All Ye Faithful
Inspired especially by Louis, my goal right now is to translate more songs into Greek. Perhaps get a whole Christmas album together? Here's a rough draft of O Come All Ye Faithful: O Come All Ye Faithful Joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem. Come and behold Him, Born the King of ...

Re: Freely available recordings by native Greeks
Pella Ikonomaki has some available at librivox.org. http://librivox.org/newcatalog/people_public.php?peopleid=2754 Does anyone know much about the text that she uses? Her James recording says that it is from the Stephanos 1550 version. I googled it and couldn't find much background information on i...
