1Eodem tempore, Antiochus secundam profectionem paravit in Ægyptum. Visions of battle. 2Mace.5.1-4
2Contigit autem per universam Jerosolymorum civitatem videri diebus quadraginta per aëra equites discurrentes, auratas stolas habentes et hastis, quasi cohortes armatos:  
3et cursus equorum per ordines digestos, et congressiones fieri cominus, et scutorum motus, et galeatorum multitudinem gladiis districtis, et telorum jactus, et aureorum armorum splendorem, omnisque generis loricarum.  
4Quapropter omnes rogabant in bonum monstra converti.  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
