1 Maccabees 1:24 In-Context

22 the table for the bread offered to the Lord, the cups and bowls, the gold fire pans, the curtain, and the crowns. He also stripped all the gold from the front of the Temple
23 and carried off the silver and gold and everything else of value, including all the treasures that he could find stored there.
24 Then he took it all to his own country. He had also murdered many people and boasted arrogantly about it.
25 There was great mourning everywhere in the land of Israel.
26 Rulers and leaders groaned in sorrow. Young men and young women grew weak. The beauty of our women faded.
