1 Maccabees 1:20-22
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Persecution of the Jews
20 After subduing Egypt, Antiochus returned in the one hundred and forty-third year.[a] He went up against Israel and came to Jerusalem with a strong force. 21 He arrogantly entered the sanctuary and took the golden altar, the lampstand for the light, and all its utensils. 22 He took also the table for the bread of the Presence, the cups for drink-offerings, the bowls, the golden censers, the curtain, the crowns, and the gold decoration on the front of the temple; he stripped it all off.
