2 Maccabees 8:33-35

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³³ And when they kept the feast of the victory at Jerusalem, they burnt Callisthenes, that had set fire to the holy gates, who had taken refuge in a certain house, rendering to him a worthy reward for his impieties:

³⁴ But as for that most wicked man Nicanor, who had brought a thousand merchants to the sale of the Jews,

³⁵ Being through the help of the Lord brought down by them, of whom he had made no account, laying; aside his garment of glory, fleeing through the midland country, he came alone to Antioch, being rendered very unhappy by the destruction of his army.
