LXX 2 Macc 4:21 Ancient Greek
Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
Ἀποσταλέντος δέ εἰς Αἴγυπτον Ἀπολλωνίου τοῦ Μενεσθέως διὰ τὰ πρωτοκλήσια ξοῦ Φιλομήτορος βασιλέως, μεταλαβὼν Ἀντίοχος ἀλλότριον αὐτὸν τῶν αὐτοῦ γεγονότων πραγμάτων, τῆς καθʼ αὐτὸν ἀσφαλίας ἐφρόντιζεν· ὅθεν εἰς Ἰόππην παραγενόμενος. κατήντησεν εἰς Ἰεροσόλυμα.
Now when Apollonius, the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem.
