LXX 2 Macc 8:26 Ancient Greek
Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
ἦν γὰρ ἡ πρὸ τοῦ σαββάτου δίκη, δι᾿ ἣν αἰτίαν οὐκ ἐμακροτόνησαν κατατρέχοντες αὐτούς.
But they came back for want of time: for it was the day before the sabbath: and therefore they did not continue the pursuit.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
