1 Maccabees 3:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 He searched out and pursued those who broke the law;
he burned those who troubled his people.(A)
6 Lawbreakers shrank back for fear of him;
all the evildoers were confounded;
and deliverance prospered by his hand.(B)
7 He embittered many kings,
but he made Jacob glad by his deeds,
and his memory is blessed forever.
