3 Maccabees 2:2-4

Common English Bible

² “Lord, Lord, king of the heavens and master of all creation, holy among the holy ones, only ruler, almighty: Pay attention to us. We are being crushed by an evil and impure man, caught up in his own arrogance and power. ³ You are the creator of all things and the just master who rules over all. You judge those who act with violence and arrogance. ⁴ You destroyed those who did evil in the past, even giants. The giants trusted in their bodily strength and boldness, but you destroyed them in a great flood.
