1 Maccabees 4:8-10

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸ But Judas said to those who were with him, “Do not fear their numbers or be afraid when they charge. ⁹ Remember how our ancestors were saved at the Red Sea, when Pharaoh with his forces pursued them. ¹⁰ And now, let us cry to Heaven, to see whether he will favor us and remember his covenant with our ancestors and crush this army before us today.
