3 Maccabees 6:14

14 The entire multitude of infants and their parents is begging you with tears.

3 Maccabees 6:14 In-Context

12 But you, who have all might and all power, eternal one, look upon us now. Have mercy on us who, by the senseless arrogance of lawless people, are being deprived of life as if we were traitors.
13 Let the Gentiles tremble in fear today at your matchless power, honored one, you who possess the power to rescue the people of Jacob.
14 The entire multitude of infants and their parents is begging you with tears.
15 Let it be shown to all the Gentiles that you are with us, Lord, and you haven't turned your face away from us. But just as you have said, "Not even when they were in the land of their enemies did I neglect them," so bring it to pass, Lord.
16 Now as Eleazar was concluding his prayer, the king arrived at the racecourse with the beasts and all the arrogance of his power.
