Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
αὐλίζομαι. ΟΟΛ5 730? (111,8.6.) ὥστε αὐλίσζασθα]ι [αὐτόθι ἐν ἡ]μ[έ]pats δυσί(ν). We may note Didache 115, where it is laid down that a wayfaring apostle, on leaving any house where he has been entertained, is to take nothing with him except bread ἕως οὗ αὐλισθῇ, “until he reach his (next night’s) lodging’: cf. the expressive use in LXX Ps 298 τὸ ἑσπέρας αὐλισθήσεται κλαυθμός, “ weeping may come in to lodge (like a passing stranger) at even.’’ In Prezsigke 1579, a bracelet of Byzantine date, we find LXX Ps go! as an amulet, with αὐλισθίσεται:: there are no variants except of spelling.
