1 Maccabees 3:21

21 But we are fighting for our lives and for our laws.

1 Maccabees 3:21 In-Context

19 It's not the size of the army that brings victory in battle, because strength comes from heaven.

20 They're coming against us with a lot of pride and evil. They want to destroy us, along with our wives and children. They want to ruin us.

21 But we are fighting for our lives and for our laws.

22 The heavenly one himself will crush them before us. Don't be afraid of them."

23 After Judas said these words, his soldiers rushed suddenly against Seron's army, and they crushed them.
