1 Maccabees 3:21

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

1 Maccabees 3:21 In-Context

19 Victory in battle does not depend on who has the largest army; it is the Lord's power that determines the outcome.

20 Our enemies are coming against us with great violence, intending to plunder our possessions and kill our wives and children.

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

22 When we attack, the Lord will crush our enemies, so don't be afraid of them."

23 As soon as Judas had finished speaking, he and his men made a sudden attack against Seron and his army and crushed them.
