2 Maccabees 8:33-35

New Catholic Bible

³³ During the victory celebrations in their ancestral city, they burned those who had set fire to the sacred gates, including Callisthenes, who had taken refuge in a tiny house. Thus he received due recompense for his sacrilegious deeds.

³⁴ Flight and Testimony of Nicanor.^[a] The accursed Nicanor, who villainously had brought along a thousand merchants to buy the Jewish captives, ³⁵ having been humbled with the help of the Lord by those whom he regarded as worthless, threw off his magnificent garments and fled across the country, unaccompanied, like a runaway slave, until he reached Antioch. His major accomplishment had been to oversee the destruction of his own army.
