1 Maccabees 14:9-13
-
9 The ancient men sat all in the streets, communing together of good things, and the young men put on glorious and warlike apparel.
-
10 He provided victuals for the cities, and set in them all manner of munition, so that his honourable name was renowned unto the end of the world.
-
11 He made peace in the land, and Israel rejoiced with great joy:
-
12 For every man sat under his vine and his fig tree, and there was none to fray them:
-
13 Neither was there any left in the land to fight against them: yea, the kings themselves were overthrown in those days.
