For the dative construction as in Ephesians 5:19, Colossians 3:16, cf. from the LXX Judith 16:1(2) ᾄσατε τῷ κυρίῳ, and such passages as Philostr. Imag. i. xi. 780 Καΰστρῳ ταῦτα καὶ Ἴστρῳ ᾄσονται, Heliod. Aethiop. v. 15 ἐμβατήρια ᾄδ. Διονύσῳ (Nägeli, p. 42). For the passive see P Giss I. 99.8 (ii/iii A.D.) ὕμνοι μὲν ἄι [δονται ] γλώτ ̣τῃ ξενικῇ.
