The Septuagint was also produced miraculously when the king locked 72 talmidei chachomim each into separate rooms and commanded them each to translate Tanach on their own. He planned on mocking them when they finished by saying, look you all translated your Torah differently. When they all completed they realized all of them miraculously translated the entire Torah, word-for-word, exactly the same via ruach kodesh. They even all similarly modified a pusek what could have sounded like mocking the kings daughter. And changed the order of the first pusek to not sound like a god named “Bereishus” created Elokim.
