    Liber II Machabaeorum

    2 Maccabees

    25

    Acceptisque a rege mandatis, venit, nihil quidem habens dignum sacerdotio: animos vero crudelis tyranni, et feræ beluæ iram gerens.

    So having received the king's mandate, he returned, bringing nothing worthy of the high priesthood: but having the mind of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast.

    Et accipe ab rege mandatos, veni, nihil quidem habente digna sacerdotio: animos vero crudeli de tyranno, et de fera de belua ira gere.
