In context

28Thus him, that lately came with a great train and with all his guard into the said treasury, they carried out, being unable to help himself with his weapons: and manifestly they acknowledged the power of God:

29for he by the hand of God was cast down, and lay speechless without all hope of life.

2 Maccabees 3:30
