1 Maccabees 2:41-43

Wycliffe Bible

⁴¹ And they thought in that day, and said, Each man whoever cometh to us in battle, in the day of sabbaths, fight we against him, and die we not all, as our brethren be dead in (the) privy places. [And they thought in that day, saying, Each man whoever shall come to us in battle, in day of sabbaths, fight we against him, and die we not all, as our brethren be dead in privy places.]

⁴² Then the synagogue of (the) Jews, strong in mights of Israel, was gathered to them. Every willful man in the law,

⁴³ and all that fled from evils, were added to them, and they were made to them to steadfastness.
