1 Maccabees 4:57-59

Wycliffe Bible

⁵⁷ And they adorned the face of the temple with golden crowns, and small shields; and hallowed (the) gates, and (the) little houses, either (the) small cells, and putted (on)to them gates (or doors).

⁵⁸ And full great gladness was made in the people, and the shame (or the reproof) of (the) heathen men was turned away.

⁵⁹ And Judas ordained, and his brethren, and all the church (or all the congregation) of Israel, that the day of hallowing of the altar be done in his (or its) times, from year into year, by eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month Kislev, that is, December, with gladness and joy.
