Open translation for this passage
χρόνῳ δὲ ὕστερον ἄλλα τε ἐχρήσθη σφίσιν ἐκ Δωδώνης, ὁποῖα δρῶντες ἱλάσεσθαι τὴν θεὸν ἔμελλον, καὶ ἄγαλμα ἐποιήσαντο Ἀθηνᾶς ἔχον τραῦμα ἐπὶ τοῦ μηροῦ.
The main difficulty is the nested clause γύρω ὁποῖα δρῶντες ἱλάσεσθαι τὴν θεὸν ἔμελλον, where ὁποῖα is best taken as an accusative neuter plural introducing/anticipating the content of the actions rather than a straightforward argument of ἔμελλον.
