1 Maccabees 14:12-14

New Catholic Bible

¹² All the people sat under their own vines and fig trees,
    and there was no one to make them afraid.
¹³ No one was left in the land to attack them;
    the kings in those days had been crushed.
¹⁴ He gave help to the lowly among his people
    and was zealous for the law,
    suppressing all the lawless and the wicked.
