4 Maccabees 12:12-14

Common English Bible

¹² For these actions, justice is waiting for you with a stronger and everlasting fire and torture, from which you will never, ever be released! ¹³ As a human being weren’t you ashamed? You are a wild animal! You cut out the tongues and abuse and torture people who have feelings just like you and who are made of the same flesh and blood as you. ¹⁴ By dying honorably, they fulfilled their religious duty to God. You, however, will howl bitterly for killing without reason these champions of the godly way of life.”
