1 Maccabees 10:62-64

New Catholic Bible

⁶² Rather, he issued orders that Jonathan should be divested of his own garments and be clothed in royal purple, and this was done. ⁶³ The king then seated him at his side and said to his officers, “Accompany him to the center of the city and proclaim that no one is to bring charges against him on any matter or to make trouble for him in any way.”

⁶⁴ When his accusers observed the honor that was paid to him in this proclamation and saw him clothed in his purple robe, they all fled.
