9 her glorious vessels have been carried into captivity. Her babes have been killed in her streets, her youths by the sword of the foe.

1 Maccabees 2:9 In-Context

7 and said, "Alas! Why was I born to see this, the ruin of my people, the ruin of the holy city, and to dwell there when it was given over to the enemy, the sanctuary given over to aliens?

8 Her temple has become like a man without honor;

9 her glorious vessels have been carried into captivity. Her babes have been killed in her streets, her youths by the sword of the foe.

10 What nation has not inherited her palaces and has not seized her spoils?

11 All her adornment has been taken away; no longer free, she has become a slave.
