1 Maccabees 7:15

¹³Now the Hasideans were the first among the children of Israel that sought peace of them:

¹⁴for said they, One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come with this army, and he will do us no wrong.

— 1 Maccabees 7:15 —

¹⁶Whereupon they believed him: howbeit he took of them threescore men, and slew them in one day, according to the words which he wrote,

¹⁷The flesh of thy saints have they cast out, and their blood have they shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.
