4 Maccabees 10:5-7
Revised Standard Version
5 Enraged by the man’s boldness, they disjointed his hands and feet with their instruments, dismembering him by prying his limbs from their sockets, 6 and breaking his fingers and arms and legs and elbows. 7 Since they were not able in any way to break his spirit,[a] they abandoned the instruments[b] and scalped him with their fingernails in Scyth′ian fashion.
