4 Maccabees 13:10

⁸For having arranged a holy choir of piety, they encouraged one another, saying,

⁹Brothers, may we die brotherly for the law. Let us imitate the three young men in Assyria who despised the equally afflicting furnace.

— 4 Maccabees 13:10 —

¹¹And one said, Courage, brother; and another, Nobly endure.

¹²And another, Remember of what stock ye are; and by the hand of what father Isaac endured to be slain for the sake of piety.
