1 Maccabees 14:13-15

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ There was none left in the land to fight against them: kings were discomfited in those days.

¹⁴ And he strengthened all those of his people that were brought low, and he sought the law, and took away every unjust and wicked man.

¹⁵ He glorified the sanctuary, and multiplied the vessels of the holy places.
