LXX 2 Macc 8:9 Ancient Greek Septuagint (Swete) — 2 Maccabees
ὁ δὲ ταχέως προχειρισάμενος Νικάνορα τὸν τοῦ Πατρόκλου, τῶν πρώτων φίλων, ἀπέστειλεν, ὑποτάξας πανφύλων ἔθνη οὐκ ἐλάττους τῶν δισμυρίων, τὸ πᾶν τῆς Ἰουδαίας ἐξᾶραι γένος συνέστησαν δὲ αὐτῷ καὶ Γοργίαν ἄνδρα στρατηγὸν καὶ εὖ πολεμικαῖς χρείαις ἔχοντα πεῖραν.
And he with all speed sent Nicanor, the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than twenty thousand armed men of different nations, to root out the whole race of the Jews, joining also with him Gorgias, a good soldier, and of great experience in matters of war.
English: Douay-Rheims (translated from the Vulgate; Greek/Latin numbering)
