The Septuagint is a Greek Translation of the Old Testament. It was primarily translated into Greek for the Jews in Alexandria who were fluent in Greek but not in Hebrew.
Septuagint means seventy and is a reference to the 70 scholars who performed the translation work.
Here you will find PDF links to Oxford University Press‘ translations of the Septuagint into English. Collectively, they are known as the New English Translation of the Septuagint (NETS)*.
