2 Maccabees 15:31 Context
29Then they made a great shout, and a noise, praising the Almighty in their owne language: 30And Iudas, who was euer the chiefe defender of the citizens both in body, and minde, and who continued his loue towards his countrymen all his life, commanded to strike off Nicanors head, and his hand, with his shoulder, & bring them to Ierusalem. 31So when he was there, and had called them of his nation together, and set the priests before the altar, he sent for them that were of the Towre, 32And shewed them vile Nicanors head, and the hand of that blasphemer, which with proud brags he had stretched out against the holy Temple of the Almightie. 33And when he had cut out the tongue of that vngodly Nicanor, he commanded that they should giue it by pieces vnto the foules, and hang vp the reward of his madnesse before the Temple.
