IV Maccabees 17:1-6

1 And some of the spearbearers said, that when she herself was about to be seized for the purpose of being put to death, she threw herself upon the pile, rather than they should touch her person.
2 O thou mother, who together with seven children didst destroy the violence of the tyrant, and render void his wicked intentions, and exhibit the nobleness of faith!
3 For thou, as an house bravely built upon the pillar of thy children, didst bear without swaying, the shock of tortures.
4 Be of good cheer, therefore, O holy-minded mother! holding the firm hope of your steadfastness with God.
5 Not so gracious does the moon appear with the stars in heaven, as thou art established honourable before God, and fixed in the firmament with thy sons who thou didst illuminate with religion to the stars.
6 For thy bearing of children was after the fashion of a child of Abraham.
