1 Maccabees 9:21

21 "How is the mighty fallen, the savior of Israel!"

1 Maccabees 9:21 In-Context

19 Then Jonathan and Simon took their brother Judas and buried him in the tomb of their ancestors at Modein,

20 and wept for him. All Israel made great lamentation for him; they mourned many days and said,

21 "How is the mighty fallen, the savior of Israel!"

22 Now the rest of the acts of Judas, and his wars and the brave deeds that he did, and his greatness, have not been recorded, but they were very many.

23 After the death of Judas, the renegades emerged in all parts of Israel; all the wrongdoers reappeared.
