33 After this went Nicanor vp to mount Sion, and there came out of the Sanctuarie certaine of the priestes, and certaine of the elders of the people to salute him peaceably, and to shewe him the burnt sacrifice that was offred for the king.
34 But he mocked them, and laughed at them, and abused them shamefully, and spake proudly,
35 And swore in his wrath, saying, vnlesse Iudas and his hoste be now deliuered into my hands, if euer I come againe in safetie, I will burne vp this house: and with that he went out in a great rage.
36 Then the priests entred in, and stood before the altar, and the Temple, weeping, and saying,
37 Thou O Lord didst choose this house, to be called by thy Name, and to be a house of prayer and petition for thy people.
38 Be auenged of this man and his hoste, and let them fall by the sword: Remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer.
