2 Maccabees 4:47-49

Wycliffe Bible

⁴⁷ and (he) assoiled (or absolved) from (the) crimes Menelaus, guilty truly of all the malice [or And he assoiled (or absolved) Menelaus, guilty truly of crimes, of all the malice]. Forsooth he damned or condemned by death these wretches, which should be deemed innocents, yea, if they had led cause with (the) Scythians.

⁴⁸ Therefore soon they gave unjust pain to them, that pursued (the) cause for the city, and [for the] people, and (for the) holy vessels.

⁴⁹ Wherefore and (the) men of Tyre were wroth, and were most liberal with the burying of them.
