2 Maccabees 10:32-34

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³² But Timotheus fled into Gazara a strong hold, where Chereas was governor.

³³ Then Machabeus, and they that were with him, cheerfully laid siege to the fortress four days.

³⁴ But they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and cast forth abominable words.
