2 Maccabees 7:38-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁸ But in me and in my brethren the wrath of the Almighty, which hath justly been brought upon all our nation, shall cease.

³⁹ Then the king being incensed with anger, raged against him more cruelly than all the rest, taking it grievously that he was mocked.

⁴⁰ So this man also died undefiled, wholly trusting in the Lord.
