LXX 2 Macc 5:21 Ancient Greek Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
Ὁ οὖν Ἀντίοχος ὀκτακόσια πρὸς τοῖς χιλίοις ἀπενεγκάμενος ἐκ τοῦ ἱεροῦ τάλαντα θᾶττον εἰς τὴν Ἀντιοχίαν ἐχωρίσθη, οἰόμενος ἀπὸ τῆς ὑπερηφανίας τὴν μέν γῆν πλωτὴν καὶ τὸ πέλαγος πορευτὸν θέσθαι, διὰ τὸν μετεωρισμὸν τῆς καρδίας.
So when Antiochus had taken away out of the temple a thousand and eight hundred talents, he went back in all haste to Antioch, thinking through pride that he might now make the land navigable, and the sea passable on foot: such was the haughtiness of his mind.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
