4 Maccabees 10:14-16

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁴ But he said to them, ‘You do not have a fire hot enough to make me play the coward. ¹⁵ No—by the blessed death of my brothers, by the eternal destruction of the tyrant, and by the everlasting life of the pious, I will not renounce our noble family ties. ¹⁶ Contrive tortures, tyrant, so that you may learn from them that I am a brother to those who have just now been tortured.’
