LXX 2 Macc 5:27 Ancient Greek
Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
Ἰούδας δὲ ὁ καὶ Μακκαβαῖος, δέκατός που γενηθεὶς καὶ ἀναχωρήσας, ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν θηρίων τρόπον διέζη σὺν τοῖς μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ τὴν χορτώδη τροφὴν σιτούμενοι διετέλουν, πρὸς τὸ μὴ μετασχεῖν τοῦ μολυσμοῦ.
But Judas Machabeus, who was the tenth, had withdrawn himself into a desert place, and there lived amongst wild beasts in the mountains with his company: and they continued feeding on herbs, that they might not be partakers of the pollution.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
