Judith 3

KING JAMES BIBLE	LXX
1 So they sent ambassadors unto him to treat of peace, saying,	1 και απεστειλαν προς αυτον αγγελους λογοις ειρηνικοις λεγοντες
2 Behold, we the servants of Nabuchodonosor the great king lie before thee; use us as shall be good in thy sight.	2 ιδου ημεις οι παιδες ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεως μεγαλου παρακειμεθα ενωπιον σου χρησαι ημιν καθως αρεστον εστιν τω προσωπω σου
3 Behold, our houses, and all our places, and all our fields of wheat, and flocks, and herds, and all the lodges of our tents lie before thy face; use them as it pleaseth thee.	3 ιδου αι επαυλεις ημων και πας τοπος ημων και παν πεδιον πυρων και τα ποιμνια και τα βουκολια και πασαι αι μανδραι των σκηνων ημων παρακεινται προ προσωπου σου χρησαι καθο αν αρεσκη σοι
4 Behold, even our cities and the inhabitants thereof are thy servants; come and deal with them as seemeth good unto thee.	4 ιδου και αι πολεις ημων και οι κατοικουντες εν αυταις δουλοι σοι εισιν ελθων απαντησον αυταις ως εστιν αγαθον εν οφθαλμοις σου
5 So the men came to Holofernes, and declared unto him after this manner.	5 και παρεγενοντο οι ανδρες προς ολοφερνην και απηγγειλαν αυτω κατα τα ρηματα ταυτα
6 Then came he down toward the sea coast, both he and his army, and set garrisons in the high cities, and took out of them chosen men for aid.	6 και κατεβη επι την παραλιαν αυτος και η δυναμις αυτου και εφρουρωσε τας πολεις τας υψηλας και ελαβεν εξ αυτων εις συμμαχιαν ανδρας επιλεκτους
7 So they and all the country round about received them with garlands, with dances, and with timbrels.	7 και εδεξαντο αυτον αυτοι και πασα η περιχωρος αυτων μετα στεφανων και χορων και τυμπανων
8 Yet he did cast down their frontiers, and cut down their groves: for he had decreed to destroy all the gods of the land, that all nations should worship Nabuchodonosor only, and that all tongues and tribes should call upon him as god.	8 και κατεσκαψεν παντα τα ορια αυτων και τα αλση αυτων εξεκοψεν και ην δεδομενον αυτω εξολεθρευσαι παντας τους θεους της γης οπως αυτω μονω τω ναβουχοδονοσορ λατρευσωσι παντα τα εθνη και πασαι αι γλωσσαι και αι φυλαι αυτων επικαλεσωνται αυτον εις θεον
9 Also he came over against Esdraelon near unto Judea, over against the great strait of Judea.	9 και ηλθεν κατα προσωπον εσδρηλων πλησιον της δωταιας η εστιν απεναντι του πριονος του μεγαλου της ιουδαιας
10 And he pitched between Geba and Scythopolis, and there he tarried a whole month, that he might gather together all the carriages of his army.	10 και κατεστρατοπεδευσαν ανα μεσον γαιβαι και σκυθων πολεως και ην εκει μηνα ημερων εις το συλλεξαι πασαν την απαρτιαν της δυναμεως αυτου
