Brenton’s Septuagint (1851), English

In the same hour the word was fulfilled upon Nabuchodonosor: and he was driven forth from men, and he ate grass as an ox, and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven, until his hairs were grown like lions' hairs , and his nails as birds' claws .

Septuagint (Brenton’s Greek, 1851)

Αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ ὁ λόγος συνετελέσθη ἐπὶ Ναβουχοδονόσορ, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐξεδιώχθη, καὶ χόρτον ὡς βοῦς ἤσθιε, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς δρόσου τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ἐβάφη, ἕως αἱ τρίχες αὐτοῦ ὡς λεόντων ἐμεγαλύνθησαν, καὶ οἱ ὄνυχες αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁρνέων.
