1 Maccabees 2:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ “Her temple has become like a prison without honor,
⁹     her glorious vessels have been carried off as booty.
Her infants have been slaughtered in the streets,
    her young men slain by the sword of the enemy.
¹⁰ What nation has not usurped a share of her sovereignty
    and carried off her possessions as plunder?
