3 Maccabees 2:18-20

Revised Standard Version

¹⁸ ‘We have trampled down the house of the sanctuary as offensive houses^[a] are trampled down.’ ¹⁹ Wipe away our sins and disperse our errors, and reveal your mercy at this hour. ²⁰ Speedily let your mercies overtake us, and put praises in the mouth of those who are downcast and broken in spirit, and give us peace.”
