1 Maccabees 8:11

11 They also destroyed or made slaves of other kingdoms, the islands, and everyone who had ever fought against them.

1 Maccabees 8:11 In-Context

9 When the Greeks made plans to attack and destroy them,

10 the Romans learned of the plans and sent a general to fight against them. The Romans killed many of the Greeks, took their wives and children captive, plundered their possessions, occupied their land, tore down their fortresses, and made them slaves, as they are today.

11 They also destroyed or made slaves of other kingdoms, the islands, and everyone who had ever fought against them.

12 But they maintained their friendship with their allies and those who relied on them for protection. They conquered kings near and far, and everyone who heard of their reputation was afraid of them.

13 They helped some men to become kings, while they deposed others; they had become a world power.
