1 Maccabees 6:46 CPDV

⁴⁴  And he gave himself for the freedom of his people, and to obtain for himself a name in eternity.

⁴⁵  And he ran up to it boldly in the midst of the legion, killing on the right and on the left, and they fell down before him on this side and that.

⁴⁶  And he went between the feet of the elephant, and put himself under it, and he killed it. And it fell to the ground upon him, and he died there.

⁴⁷  And, seeing the strength of the king and the forcefulness of his army, they turned themselves away from them.

⁴⁸  But the king’s camp went up against them in Jerusalem. And the king’s camp took up a position near Judea and Mount Zion.
