1 Maccabees 13:2-4

Wycliffe Bible

² and saw that the people was in trembling and dread, he went up to Jerusalem, and gathered the people;

³ and admonished, and said, Ye know, how great things I, and my brethren, and the house of my father, have done, for (the) laws, and for (the) holy things (or and for the Temple), (the) battles, and what manner anguishes we saw.

⁴ For love, [or For grace, or cause], of these things all my brethren perished for Israel, and I alone am left.
