LXX 2 Macc 6:21 Ancient Greek Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
οἱ δὲ πρὸς τῷ παρανόμῳ σπλαγχνισμῷ τεταγμένοι διὰ τὴν ἐκ τῶν παλαιῶν χρόνων πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα γνῶσιν ἀπολαμβάνοντες αὐτὸν κατʼ ἰδίαν ἐνεκάλουν, ἐνεγκόντα κρέα, οἷς καθῆκον αὐτῷ χρᾶσθαι, δι᾿ αὐτοῦ παρασκευασθέντα, ὑποκρῖναι δὲ ὡς ἐσθίοντα τὰ ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως τεταγμένα τῶν ἀπὸ τῆς θυσίας κρεῶν,
But they that stood by, being moved with wicked pity, for the old friendship they had with the man, taking him aside, desired that flesh might be brought which it was lawful for him to eat, that he might make as if he had eaten, as the king had commanded, of the flesh of the sacrifice:
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
