LXX 2 Macc 4:19 Ancient Greek
Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
ἀπέστειλεν Ἰάσων ὁ μιερὸς θεωροὺς ὡς ἀπὸ Ἰεροσολύμων Ἀντιοχέας παρακομίζοντας ἀργυρίου δραχμὰς τριακοσίους εἰς τὴν τοῦ Ἡρακλέους θυσίαν, ἃς καὶ ἠξίωσαν οἱ παρακομίζοντες μὴ χρῆσθαι εἰς θυσίαν,
The wicked Jason sent from Jerusalem sinful men, to carry three hundred didrachmas of silver for the sacrifice of Hercules; but the bearers thereof desired it might not be bestowed on the sacrifices, because it was not necessary, but might be deputed for other charges.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
