2 Maccabees 7:36 Context
33And though the living Lord be angry with us a little while for our chastening and correction, yet shall he be at one again with his servants. 34But thou, O godless man, and of all other most wicked, be not lifted up without a cause, nor puffed up with uncertain hopes, lifting up thy hand against the servants of God: 35For thou hast not yet escaped the judgment of Almighty God, who seeth all things. 36For our brethren, who now have suffered a short pain, are dead under God's covenant of everlasting life: but thou, through the judgment of God, shalt receive just punishment for thy pride. 37But I, as my brethren, offer up my body and life for the laws of our fathers, beseeching God that he would speedily be merciful unto our nation; and that thou by torments and plagues mayest confess, that he alone is God; 38And that in me and my brethren the wrath of the Almighty, which is justly brought upon our nation, may cease. 39Than the king' being in a rage, handed him worse than all the rest, and took it grievously that he was mocked.
