4 Maccabees 18:10

⁸No destroyer of the desert, or ravisher of the plain, injured me; nor did the destructive, deceitful, snake, make spoil of my chaste virginity; and I remained with my husband during the period of my prime.

⁹And these my children, having arrived at maturity, their father died: blessed was he! for having sought out a life of fertility in children, he was not grieved with a period of loss of children.

— 4 Maccabees 18:10 —

¹¹He used to read to you the slaying of Abel by Cain, and the offering up of Isaac, and the imprisonment of Joseph.

¹²And he used to tell you of the zealous Phinehas; and informed you of Hananiah and Azariah, and Mishael in the fire.
