Brenton 1851
Yet even his own officers, when they saw this, joined the Jews in an appeal to Him who has all power, to aid in the present crisis, and not wink at such overweening lawlessness.
Greek · Brenton
Ταῦτʼ οὖν καὶ οἱ περὶ αὐτὸν ὄντες θεωροῦντες, ἐτράπησαν εἰς τὸ σὺν τοῖς ἡμετέροις ἐπικαλεῖσθαι τὸν πᾶν κράτος ἔχοντα, τοῖς παροῦσιν ἐπαμῦναι, μὴ περιδόντα τὴν ἄνομον καὶ ὑπερήφανον πρᾶξιν.
