4 Maccabees 5:36-38
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
36 You, O king,[a] shall not defile the honourable mouth of my old age, nor my long life lived lawfully. 37 My ancestors will receive me as pure, as one who does not fear your violence even to death. 38 You may tyrannize the ungodly, but you shall not dominate my religious principles, either by words or through deeds.’
