1 Maccabees 1:49-51

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴⁹ And he commanded the holy places to be profaned, and the holy people of Israel.

⁵⁰ And he commanded altars to be built, and temples, and idols, and swine's flesh to be immolated, and unclean beasts.

⁵¹ And that they should leave their children uncircumcised, and let their souls be defiled with all uncleannesses, and abominations, to the end that they should forget the law, and should change all the justifications of God.
