2 Maccabees 1:27-29

New Catholic Bible

²⁷ Gather together our dispersed people, set free those who have been enslaved by the Gentiles, look with favor on those who are despised and detested, and let the Gentiles realize that you are our God. ²⁸ Punish those who oppress us and treat us with arrogance. ²⁹ Plant your people in your holy place, as Moses promised.”
