IV Maccabees 10:10-20

10 We, O accursed tyrant, suffer this for the sake of Divine education and virtue.
11 But thou, for thine impiety and blood-shedding, shalt endure indissoluble torments.
12 And thus having died worthily of his brethren, they dragged forward the fourth, saying,
13 Do not thou share the madness of thy brethren: but give regard to the king, and save thyself.
14 But he said to them, You have not a fire so scorching as to make me play the coward.
15 By the blessed death of my brethren, and the eternal punishment of the tyrant, and the glorious life of the pious, I will not repudiate the noble brotherhood.
16 Invent, O tyrant, tortures; that you may learn, even through them, that I am the brother of those tormented before.
17 When he had said this, the blood-thirsty, and murderous, and unhallowed Antiochus ordered his tongue to be cut out.
18 But he said, Even if you take away the organ of speech, yet God hears the silent.
19 Behold, my tongue is extended, cut it off; for not for that halt thou extirpate our reasoning.
20 Gladly do we lose our limbs in behalf of God.
