1 Maccabees 2:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 What nation has not taken its share of her realm,
and laid its hand on her spoils?
11 All her adornment has been taken away.
Once free, she has become a slave.
12 We see our sanctuary laid waste,
our beauty, our glory.
The Gentiles have defiled them!
