2 Maccabees 7:17

Listen to 2 Maccabees 7:17
17 But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed.

2 Maccabees 7:17 In-Context

15 And when they had brought the fifth, they tormented him. But he looking upon the king,
16 Said: Whereas thou hast power among men, though thou art corruptible, thou dost what thou wilt: but think not that our nation is forsaken by God.
17 But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed.
18 After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us:
19 But do not think that thou s escape unpunished, for that thou attempted to fight against God.
