1 Maccabees 12:13-15

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ But we have had many troubles and wars on every side, and the kings that are round about us, have fought against us.

¹⁴ But we would not be troublesome to you, nor the rest of our allies and friends in these wars.

¹⁵ For we have had help from heaven, and we have been delivered, and our enemies are humbled.
