Translation help: δοῦλον ἒπεμψα ὡς τοὺς παῖδας διώξοντα.

Can someone translate:

δοῦλον ἒπεμψα ὡς τοὺς παῖδας διώξοντα.

Is this:

  1. I sent the slave in order to chase the children

or

  1. I sent the slave in order to do something to the about-to-be-chased children?

or another… Thanks!

Nevermind, its case 1, I forgot that slave is accusative, διώξοντα is the singular accusative future participle, sorry guys!!

Note: “a slave” and “my children” (unless some other specific group of children have already been referenced).
