    Liber II Machabaeorum

    2 Maccabees

    2

    Intraverat enim in eam quæ dicitur Persepolis, et tentavit expoliare templum, et civitatem opprimere: sed multitudine ad arma concurrente, in fugam versi sunt: et ita contigit ut Antiochus post fugam turpiter rediret.

    For he had entered into the city called Persepolis, and attempted to rob the temple, and to oppress the city, but the multitude running together to arms, put them to flight: and so it fell out that Antiochus being put to flight, returned with disgrace.

    Intra nam in illa que dic Persepolos, et tenta expolia templo, et civitate opprime: sed multitudine ad armas concurre, in fuga verte es: et ita continge ut Antiocho post fuga turpiter reveni.
