§33.34.1secundum Isthmia Quinctius et decem legati legationes regum gentiumque audivere. §33.34.2primi omnium regis Antiochi vocati legati sunt.
After the Isthmian games, Quinctius and the ten commissioners heard the embassies of kings and nations. First of all, the ambassadors of King Antiochus were called.
iis eadem fere, quae Romae egerant, verba sine fide rerum iactantibus nihil iam perplexe, §33.34.3ut ante, cum dubiae res incolumi Philippo erant, sed aperte denuntiatum ut excederet Asiae urbibus, quae Philippi aut Ptolomaei regum fuissent, abstineret liberis civitatibus neu quam lacesseret armis: et in pace et in libertate esse debere omnis ubique Graecas urbes. §33.34.4ante omnia denuntiatum, ne in Europam aut ipse transiret aut copias traiceret. §33.34.5dimissis regis legatis conventus civitatum gentiumque est haberi coeptus; eoque maturius peragebatur, quod decreta decem legatorum in civitates nominatim pronuntiabantur. §33.34.6Orestis — Macedonum ea gens est —, quod primi ab rege defecissent suae leges redditae.
To them, as they were bandying about almost the same words without any sincerity of action as they had done at Rome, it was announced, no longer in an obscure manner, as before, when affairs were uncertain while Philip was unharmed, but openly, that he must withdraw from the cities of Asia which had belonged to King Philip or King Ptolemy, and abstain from the free states, and not attack any of them with arms; and that all Greek cities everywhere ought to be both in peace and in liberty. Above all, it was declared that neither he himself should cross into Europe nor should he transport forces there. When the king's ambassadors had been dismissed, the assembly of states and nations began to be held; and it was transacted the more speedily because the decrees of the ten commissioners were pronounced to the states by name. To the Orestae—this is a nation of Macedonians—their own laws were restored because they had been the first to revolt from the king.
Magnetes et Perrhaebi et Dolopes liberi quoque pronuntiati. §33.34.7Thessalorum genti praeter libertatem concessam Achaei Phthiotae dati Thebis Phthioticis et Pharsalo excepta.
The Magnetes, Perrhaebians, and Dolopians were also pronounced free. To the nation of the Thessalians, besides the liberty granted to them, the Achaeans of Phthiotis were given, except for Phthiotic Thebes and Pharsalus.
Aetolos de Pharsalo et Leucade postulantes, ut ex foedere sibi restituerentur, ad senatum reiecerunt. §33.34.8Phocenses Locrensesque, sicut ante fuerant, adiecta decreti auctoritate iis contribuerunt. §33.34.9Corinthus et Triphylia et Heraea — Peloponnesi et ipsa urbs est — reddita Achaeis. §33.34.10Oreum et Eretriam decem legati Eumeni regi, Attali filio, dabant dissentiente Quinctio; ea una res in arbitrium senatus reiecta est; senatus libertatem his civitatibus dedit Carysto adiecta. §33.34.11Pleurato Lychnidus et Parthini dati;
As for the Aetolians, who demanded that Pharsalus and Leucas should be restored to them according to the treaty, they referred them to the senate. The Phocians and Locrians, just as they had been before, were annexed to them, with the authority of the decree added thereto. Corinth, Triphylia, and Heraea—which is itself also a city of Peloponnesus—were restored to the Achaeans. The ten commissioners were for giving Oreus and Eretria to King Eumenes, the son of Attalus, while Quinctius dissented; this single matter was referred to the decision of the senate, and the senate gave liberty to these cities, adding Carystus as well. To Pleuratus, Lychnidus and the Parthini were given; both of these nations of Illyrians had been under the dominion of Philip.
Illyriorum utraque gens sub dicione Philippi fuerant. Amynandrum tenere iusserunt castella, quae per belli tempus Philippo capta ademisset.
They ordered Amynander to keep the strongholds which he had taken from Philip during the time of the war.
