2 Maccabees 2:16

¹⁴In like manner also Judas gathered together all those things that were lost by reason of the war we had, and they remain with us,

¹⁵Wherefore if ye have need thereof, send some to fetch them unto you.

— 2 Maccabees 2:16 —

¹⁷We hope also, that the God, that delivered all his people, and gave them all an heritage, and the kingdom, and the priesthood, and the sanctuary,

¹⁸As he promised in the law, will shortly have mercy upon us, and gather us together out of every land under heaven into the holy place: for he hath delivered us out of great troubles, and hath purified the place.
