1 Maccabees 7:15-17
Common English Bible
15 Alcimus spoke peaceably to them and made a pledge to them: “We won’t seek to injure you or your friends.” 16 So they trusted him. But he seized sixty of them and killed them in one day. This was in keeping with the written word:
17 The flesh of your faithful ones…
and their blood they poured out
all around Jerusalem;
there was no one to bury them.[a]
