2 Maccabees 7:34-36

Common English Bible

³⁴ But you, unholy man, the most bloodstained of all people, don’t be so proud without having cause. Bloated by futile hope, you raise up your hand against the children of heaven. ³⁵ You haven’t at all escaped the judgment of the almighty God, who oversees all. ³⁶ Now our brothers, who endured pain for a short time, have been given eternal life under God’s covenant, but you will suffer the penalty of your arrogance by the righteous judgment of God.
