1 Maccabees 3:51 In-Context

49 They also brought out the priestly garments as well as early produce and tenth-part gifts. They stirred up nazirites, who had completed the duration of their solomn promises.

50 Then they cried aloud to heaven: "What should we do with these people? Where should we take them?

51 Your sanctuary is trampled and degraded. Your priests mourn in humiliation.

52 The Gentiles are gathered here against us, planning to destroy us. You know what they are plotting.

53 How will we be able to withstand them if you don't help us?"
