2 Maccabees

2 Maccabees 14:9

ἕκαστα δὲ τούτων ἐπεγνωκὼς σύ, βασιλεῦ, καὶ τῆς χώρας καὶ τοῦ περιισταμένου γένους ἡμῶν προνοήθητι καθ’ ἣν ἔχεις πρὸς ἅπαντας εὐαπάντητον φιλανθρωπίαν.
King James Version (KJV)

Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, be careful for the country, and our nation, which is pressed on every side, according to the clemency that thou readily shewest unto all.

Modern English

Therefore, O king, now that you know all this, please look after the country and our nation, hard pressed on every side, in keeping with the kindness you readily show to everyone.
