4 Maccabees 6:17-19
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
17 ‘Never may we, the children of Abraham,[a] think so basely that out of cowardice we feign a role unbecoming to us! 18 For it would be irrational if, having lived in accordance with truth up to old age and having maintained in accordance with law the reputation of such a life, we should now change our course 19 and ourselves become a pattern of impiety to the young by setting them an example in the eating of defiling food.
