2 Maccabees 7:29-31
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
29 Do not fear this butcher, but prove worthy of your brothers. Accept death, so that in God’s mercy I may get you back again along with your brothers.’
30 While she was still speaking, the young man said, ‘What are you[a] waiting for? I will not obey the king’s command, but I obey the command of the law that was given to our ancestors through Moses. 31 But you,[b] who have contrived all sorts of evil against the Hebrews, will certainly not escape the hands of God.
