8For we through this ill-treatment and endurance shall bear off the rewards of virtue.
9But thou, for the wicked and despotic slaughter of us, shalt, from the Divine vengeance, endure eternal torture by fire.
— 4 Maccabees 9:10 —
11So that, at his bidding, the torturers brought forth the eldest of them, and tearing through his tunic, bound his hands and arms on each side with thongs.
12And when they had labored hard without effect in scourging him, they hurled him upon the wheel.
