2 Maccabees 9:7

7 However he not at all ceased from his bragging, but still was filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews and commanding to hasten the journey. But it came to pass that he fell down from his chariot as it was carried violently, so that, having a sore fall, all the members of his body were much pained.

2 Maccabees 9:7 In-Context

5 But the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, smote him with an incurable and invisible plague. For as soon as he had spoken these words, a pain of the bowels that was remediless came upon him, and sore torments of the inner parts,

6 and that most justly; for he had tormented other men's bowels with many and strange torments.

7 However he not at all ceased from his bragging, but still was filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews and commanding to hasten the journey. But it came to pass that he fell down from his chariot as it was carried violently, so that, having a sore fall, all the members of his body were much pained.

8 And thus he, that a little before thought he could command the waves of the sea (so proud was he beyond the condition of man), and weigh the high mountains in a balance, was now cast on the ground and carried in a horse litter, showing forth unto all the manifest power of God.

9 So the worms rose up out of the body of this wicked man, and while he lived in sorrow and pain, his flesh fell away, and the filthiness of his smell was noisome to all his army.
