3 Maccabees 5:23-25
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
23 Then, as soon as the cock had crowed in the early morning, Hermon, having equipped[a] the animals, began to move them along in the great colonnade. 24 The crowds of the city had been assembled for this most pitiful spectacle and they were eagerly waiting for daybreak. 25 But the Jews, at their last gasp—since the time had run out—stretched their hands towards heaven and with most tearful supplication and mournful dirges implored the supreme God[b] to help them again at once.
