1 Maccabees 6:12

12 But now I recall the wrongs I did in Jerusalem. I seized all its silver and gold equipment. I ordered the destruction of the inhabitants of Judah without good reason.

1 Maccabees 6:12 In-Context

10 He called his closest political advisors and said to them, "Sleep has left my eyes. I'm depressed from worrying.
11 I say to myself, What distress I've come to! What a great flood I've now been plunged into! Once I was kind and was loved in my power.
12 But now I recall the wrongs I did in Jerusalem. I seized all its silver and gold equipment. I ordered the destruction of the inhabitants of Judah without good reason.
13 I know it's because of all this that these misfortunes have come on me. I'm here, dying of bitter disappointment, in a foreign land."
14 Then he called for one of his advisors named Philip and made him ruler over all of his kingdom.
