1 Maccabees 2:35-37

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁵ And they made haste to give them battle.

³⁶ But they answered them not, neither did they cast a stone at them, nor stopped up the secret places,

³⁷ Saying: Let us all die in our innocency: and heaven and earth shall be witnesses for us, that you put us to death wrongfully.
