1 Maccabees 9:54-56
Revised Standard Version
54 In the one hundred and fifty-third year,[a] in the second month, Al′cimus gave orders to tear down the wall of the inner court of the sanctuary. He tore down the work of the prophets! 55 But he only began to tear it down, for at that time Al′cimus was stricken and his work was hindered; his mouth was stopped and he was paralyzed, so that he could no longer say a word or give commands concerning his house. 56 And Al′cimus died at that time in great agony.
