2 Maccabees 1:27-29

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁷ Gather together our scattered people, deliver them that are slaves to the Gentiles, and look upon them that are despised and abhorred: that the Gentiles may know that thou art our God.

²⁸ Punish them that oppress us, and that treat us injuriously with pride.

²⁹ Establish thy people in thy holy place, as Moses hath spoken.
