1 Maccabees 14:12-14

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹² All the people sat under their own vines and fig trees,
    and there was none to make them afraid.
¹³ No one was left in the land to fight them,
    and the kings were crushed in those days.
¹⁴ He gave help to all the humble among his people;
    he sought out the law,
    and did away with all the renegades and outlaws.
