1 Maccabees 9:21

21 "How is the valiant man fallen, that delivered Israel!"

1 Maccabees 9:21 In-Context

19 Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulcher of his fathers in Modin.

20 Moreover they bewailed him, and all Israel made great lamentation for him and mourned many days, saying,

21 "How is the valiant man fallen, that delivered Israel!"

22 As for the other things concerning Judas and his wars, and the noble acts which he did and his greatness, they are not written, for they were very many.

23 Now after the death of Judas, the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the regions of Israel, and there arose up all such as wrought iniquity.
