[Meaning] they undertook, they took up. "Not wanting to join forces with those who were in effect campaigning against him, they bore the war."¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ὑπεδέξαντο· ἐνεχειρήσαντο, ἀνελάβοντο. οἷς μὴ βουληθέντες ὡς κατ' αὐτοῦ στρατευομένοις συμμαχεῖν, τὸν πόλεμον ὑπεδέξαντο.

Notes (1)

The headword -- aorist indicative middle, third person plural, of the verb u(pode/xomai -- is presumably extracted from the quotation given; see again at upsilon 181.
