2 Maccabees 11:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ And when they were going forth together with a willing mind, there appeared at Jerusalem a horseman going before them in white clothing, with golden armour, shaking a spear.

⁹ Then they all together blessed the merciful Lord, and took great courage, being ready to break through not only men, but also the fiercest beasts, and walls of iron.

¹⁰ So they went on courageously, having a helper from Heaven, and the who shewed mercy to them.
