1 Maccabees 6:51-53
Revised Standard Version
51 Then he encamped before the sanctuary for many days. He set up siege towers, engines of war to throw fire and stones, machines to shoot arrows, and catapults. 52 The Jews[a] also made engines of war to match theirs, and fought for many days. 53 But they had no food in storage,[b] because it was the seventh year; those who found safety in Judea from the Gentiles had consumed the last of the stores.
