2 Maccabees 7:26-28

Wycliffe Bible

²⁶ Forsooth when he admonished her by many words, she promised him for to counsel her son.

²⁷ Therefore she bowed down to him, and scorned the cruel tyrant [or scorning the cruel tyrant], and said in (her) country voice (or in her country’s language), Son, have mercy on me, that bare thee in (my) womb (for) nine months, and gave (thee) milk by (or for) three years, and nourished or nursed (thee), and fully brought (thee) into this age.

²⁸ I ask, child, that thou behold to heaven and earth, and all things that be in them, and understand, that God made them (out) of nought, and the kind of men (or and mankind also).
