In context
11Impious tyrant, and most blasphemous man, wert thou not ashamed, having received prosperity and a kingdom from God, to slay His servants, and to rack the doers of godliness?
12Wherefore the divine vengeance is reserving thee for eternal fire and torments, which shall cling to thee for all time.
— 4 Maccabees 12:13 —
14But they, bravely dying, fulfilled their religion toward God.
15But thou shalt groan according to thy deserts for having slain without cause the champions of virtue.
