2 Maccabees 15:33-35

New Catholic Bible

³³ He cut out the tongue of the godless Nicanor and swore that he would feed it piecemeal to the birds and hang up the rewards of his folly opposite the temple. ³⁴ On hearing this, everyone looked to heaven and blessed the Lord for the manifestation of his divine power, saying, “Blessed be he who has preserved his own place from defilement.”

³⁵ Judas hung Nicanor’s head from the citadel, a clear and evident sign to everyone of the help of the Lord.
