4 Maccabees 9:11-13

Common English Bible

¹¹ He gave the word, and the soldiers brought the oldest brother forward. They tore off his clothing and tied his arms and hands on each side with leather straps. ¹² The soldiers beat him with whips until they were completely tired out, without accomplishing anything. So they tied him to the wheel. ¹³ They stretched the honorable young man around this instrument until all his limbs were pulled out of joint.
