37 Therefore Antiochus was heartily sorry and moved to pity, and wept because of the sober and modest behavior of him that was dead.

2 Maccabees 4:37 In-Context

35 For this cause not only the Jews, but many also of other nations, felt great indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of the man.

36 And when the king had come back from the places about Cilicia, the Jews who were in the city, and certain of the Greeks who abhorred the fact also, complained because Onias was slain without cause.

37 Therefore Antiochus was heartily sorry and moved to pity, and wept because of the sober and modest behavior of him that was dead.

38 And, being kindled with anger, forthwith he took away Andronicus' purple and rent off his clothes and, leading him through the whole city unto that very place where he had committed impiety against Onias, there slew he the cursed murderer. Thus the Lord rewarded him his punishment as he had deserved.

39 Now when many sacrileges had been committed in the city by Lysimachus with the consent of Menelaus, and the report thereof had spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, many vessels of gold being already carried away.
