Part of Speech: Verb, Noun
Explanation: The word "ΛΗΣΑΙ" appears to be a misspelling or a truncated form of several different Koine Greek words, given the provided context. It could be an infinitive form of the verb "ΛΑΛΕΩ" (to speak/say), which would be "ΛΑΛΗΣΑΙ". It could also be an infinitive form of the verb "ΩΦΕΛΕΩ" (to help/benefit), which would be "ΩΦΕΛΗΣΑΙ". Finally, it could be a dative or genitive form of the noun "ΥΠΟΛΗΝΙΟΝ" (winepress/vat), which would be "ΥΠΟΛΗΝΙΩ" or "ΥΠΟΛΗΝΙΟΥ" respectively, but the provided text shows "ΥΠΟΛΗΝΙΟ" which is likely a nominative/accusative singular. Given the examples, it is most likely a misspelling of "ΛΑΛΗΣΑΙ" or "ΩΦΕΛΗΣΑΙ".
