1 Maccabees 6:11 Context
9And there hee continued many dayes: for his griefe was euer more and more, and he made account that he should die. 10Wherefore he called for all his friends, and said vnto them, The sleepe is gone from mine eyes, and my heart faileth for very care. 11And I thought with my selfe: Into what tribulation am I come, and how great a flood [of miserie] is it wherein now I am? for I was bountifull, and beloued in my power. 12But now I remember the euils that I did at Ierusalem, and that I tooke all the vessels of gold and siluer that were therein, and sent to destroy the inhabitants of Iudea without a cause. 13I perceiue therefore that for this cause these troubles are come vpon me, and behold I perish through great griefe in a strange land.
