2 Maccabees 14:37-39

Wycliffe Bible

³⁷ Forsooth Razis, one of the elder men of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor; and Razis was a man, (a) lover of the city, and well-hearing (or and well heard of)/and well-praising (or and highly praised), that for affection, or love, was called (the) father of (the) Jews.

³⁸ This man many times held purpose of continence in Judea [or in Jewry], and was appeased (or was satisfied) for to betake body and soul for perseverance, or lasting.

³⁹ Forsooth Nicanor would show the hatred, that he had against (the) Jews, and sent five hundred knights, for to take him. [Forsooth Nicanor, willing for to show the hate, that he had against Jews, sent five hundred knights, for to take him.]
