LXX 2 Macc 10:4 Ancient Greek
Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
ταῦτα δὲ ποιήσαντες, ἡξίωσαν τὸν κύριον πεσόντες ἐπὶ κοιλίαν, μηκέτι παραπεσεῖν τοιούτοις κακοῖς, ἀλλʼ ἐάν ποτε καὶ ἁμάρτωσιν, ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ μετὰ ἐπιεικείας, μὴ βλασφήμοις καὶ βαρβάροις ἔθνεσιν παραδίδοσθαι
And when they had done these things, they besought the Lord, lying prostrate on the ground, that they might no more fall into such evils; but if they should at any time sin, that they might be chastised by him more gently, and not be delivered up to barbarians and blasphemous men.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
