Open translation for this passage
ἐπὶ τούτου βασιλεύοντος στρατόν σφισι πολέμιον λέγουσιν ἐς τὴν χώραν τότε ἐλθεῖν πρῶτον, τὰ πρὸ τοῦ πάντα τὸν χρόνον διατελέσασιν ἐν εἰρήνῃ.
The genitive absolute ἐπὶ τούτου βασιλεύοντος sets the time; λέγουσιν governs an infinitival report with στρατόν πολέμιον as the accusative subject of ἐλθεῖν. The final participle διατελέσασιν is dative plural, agreeing with implicit σφισι and taking τὰ ... πάντα τὸν χρόνον as an adverbial temporal expression; exact attachment of τὰ πρὸ τοῦ is somewhat elliptical.

αἰτία δὲ ἥδε· Ἀντιόπης ἐν Ἕλλησι τῆς Νυκτέως ὄνομα ἦν ἐπὶ κάλλει, καί οἱ καὶ φήμη προσῆν Ἀσωποῦ θυγατέρα, ὃς τὴν Θηβαΐδα καὶ Πλαταιίδα ὁρίζει, καὶ οὐ Νυκτέως εἶναι.
The sentence has two coordinated clauses: ὄνομα ἦν and φήμη προσῆν, with Ἀντιόπης ... τῆς Νυκτέως an elliptical genitive relation; ὃς refers to Ἀσωπός, and εἶναι is an infinitival complement coordinated with the preceding content. The attachment of Ἀσωποῦ θυγατέρα is interpretively somewhat uncertain but is treated as a predicate accusative with φήμη προσῆν.
