2 Maccabees 7:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed.

¹⁸ After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us:

¹⁹ But do not think that thou shalt escape unpunished, for that thou attempted to fight against God.
