2 Maccabees 8:3
2. And they called upon the Lord, that he would look upon the people that was trodden down of all; and also pity the temple profaned of ungodly men;3. And that he would have compassion upon the city, sore defaced, and ready to be made even with the ground; and hear the blood that cried unto him,4. And remember the wicked slaughter of harmless infants, and the blasphemies committed against his name; and that he would shew his hatred against the wicked.
