"Against Simon" (also known as "Reply to Simon") is a speech by Lysias, one of the "Canon of Ten" Attic orators. The speech, the third in the modern Lysianic corpus, concerns a case of "wounding with premeditation" or with the intention to commit murder. This offense was heard not in front of an ordinary court but instead by the council of the Areopagus where not only the litigants of the case but the witnesses as well had to swear to a special oath called the diomosia. In these proceedings, there was also an emphasis on citing only material that was specifically related to the case. Although it is not entirely clear how the Athenians differentiated between premeditated wounding and simple assault, scholars have suggested that the possession of a weapon could be a determining factor.

- Contro Simone (nota anche come "Risposta a Simone") è un'orazione di Lisia. Il discorso, il terzo nel moderno corpus lisiaco, riguarda un caso di "ferimento con premeditazione" o con l'intenzione di commettere omicidio. Questo delitto non fu discusso davanti a un tribunale ordinario, ma invece dal consiglio dell'Areopago dove non solo le parti in causa, ma anche i testimoni, dovevano prestare un giuramento speciale chiamato diomosia. In questi procedimenti, c'era anche un'enfasi sulla citazione solo del materiale che era specificamente correlato al caso. Sebbene non sia del tutto chiaro come gli ateniesi distinguessero tra ferimento premeditato e semplice aggressione, gli studiosi hanno suggerito che il possesso di un'arma potrebbe essere stato un fattore determinante.
