2 Maccabees 2:2-4

Wycliffe Bible

² And he gave to them the law, lest they forgot the behests (or the commandments) of the Lord; and that they should not err in (their) souls, [or understandings], seeing golden and silvern simulacra, and (the) ornaments or adornments of them.

³ And he said other such things, and admonished, that they should not remove the law from their hearts.

⁴ Soothly it was in that writing, how the prophet bade, by God’s answer made to him, that the tabernacle and the ark follow with them (or with him), till he went out into the hill in which Moses ascended, and saw the heritage of God.
