2 Maccabees 9:4

2 Maccabees · Old Testament · Chapter 9

“And swelling with anger, he thought to revenge upon the Jews the injury done by them that had put him to flight. And therefore he commanded his chariot to be driven, without stopping in his journey, the judgment of heaven urging him forward, because he had spoken so proudly, that he would come to Jerusalem, and make it a common burying place of the Jews.”2 Maccabees 9:4
