4 Maccabees 11:4

4 Enemy of moral character! Enemy of the human race! For what crime are you destroying us in this way?

4 Maccabees 11:4 In-Context

2 "I'm not about to refuse to be tortured for the sake of moral character, you tyrant!
3 I've come forward of my own free will so that by killing me, you will receive even more severe punishment at the hands of God's justice for more crimes!
4 Enemy of moral character! Enemy of the human race! For what crime are you destroying us in this way?
5 For honoring the creator of all things and living according to his moral Law?
6 Such things deserve honor, not torture!"
