3 Maccabees 3:27

27 But whoever shelters any of the Jews, from an elderly person to a child to nursing infants, will be tortured, household and all, with the most horrible punishments.

3 Maccabees 3:27 In-Context

25 We have given an order that as soon as this letter arrives, you are immediately to send to us those Jews who live among you, together with their wives and children, to suffer a certain and shameful death appropriate for enemies. Treat them harshly and abusively, and bind them on all sides in iron chains.
26 We are sure that, when these people have all been punished, the affairs of our state will be established more securely and in a more excellent condition for the future.
27 But whoever shelters any of the Jews, from an elderly person to a child to nursing infants, will be tortured, household and all, with the most horrible punishments.
28 But the one who is willing to give information will receive the property of the person falling under judgment. They will also be given two thousand drachmen from the royal treasury, and will be rewarded with their freedom.
29 But every place, without exception, where a Jew is discovered to be sheltered, will be laid waste and burned with fire. It will become utterly useless to every living creature for all time.
