The Rise of Antiochus Epiphanes
1 Maccabees 1
After the death of Alexander the Great and the division of his empire among his generals, Antiochus Epiphanes comes to the Greek throne, invades Egypt, and then turns on Jerusalem, plundering the temple of its gold, vessels, and treasures. He commands his whole kingdom to abandon their own laws, forbids sacrifice and the sabbath, sets up the abomination of desolation upon the altar, and puts to death those who keep the law or have their children circumcised.

BrentonAnd it happened, after that Alexander son of Philip, the Macedonian, who came out of the land of Chettiim, had smitten Darius king of the Persians and Medes, that he reigned in his stead, the first over Greece,
GreekΚΑΙ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ πατάξαι Ἀλέξανδρον τὸν Φιλίππου τὸν Μακεδόνα, ὃς ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τῆς γῆς Χεττειεὶμ, καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν Δαρεῖον βασιλέα Περσῶν καὶ Μήδων, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ πρότερος ἐπὶ τὴν Ἑλλάδα.
2
Brentonand made many wars, and won many strong holds, and slew the kings of the earth,
GreekΚαὶ συνεστήσατο πολέμους πολλοὺς, καὶ ἐκράτησεν ὀχυρωμάτων πολλῶν, καὶ ἔσφαξε βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς.
3
Brentonand went through to the ends of the earth, and took spoils of many nations, insomuch that the earth was quiet before him; whereupon he was exalted, and his heart was lifted up.
GreekΚαὶ διῆλθεν ἕως ἄκρων τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἔλαβε σκῦλα πλήθους ἐθνῶν· καὶ ἠσύχασεν ἡ γῆ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ· καὶ ὑψώθη, καὶ ἐπῄρθη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ.
4
BrentonAnd he gathered a mighty strong host, and ruled over countries, and nations, and kings, who became tributaries unto him.
GreekΚαὶ συνήγαγε δύναμιν ἰσχυρὰν σφόδρα, καὶ ἦρξε χωρῶν, καὶ ἐθνῶν, καὶ τυράννων, καὶ ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον.
5
BrentonAnd after these things he fell sick, and perceived that he should die.
GreekΚαὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν κοίτην, καὶ ἔγνω ὅτι ἀποθνήσκει.
6
BrentonWherefore he called his servants, such as were honourable, and had been brought up with him from his youth, and parted his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.
GreekΚαὶ ἐκάλεσε τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ τοὺς ἐνδόξους τοὺς συντρόφους αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ νεότητος, καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοῖς τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ ἔτι ζῶντος αὐτοῦ.
7
BrentonSo Alexander reigned twelve years, and then died.
GreekΚαὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἀλέξανδρος ἔτη δώδεκα, καὶ ἀπέθανε.
8
BrentonAnd his servants bare rule every one in his place.
GreekΚαὶ ἐπεκράτησαν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ἕκαστος ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ.
9
BrentonAnd after his death they all put crowns upon themselves; so did their sons after them many years: and evils were multiplied in the earth.
GreekΚαὶ ἐπέθεντο πάντες διαδήματα μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν αὐτὸν, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἔτη πολλὰ, καὶ ἐπλήθυναν κακὰ ἐν τῇ γῇ.
10
BrentonAnd there came out of them a wicked root, Antiochus surnamed Epiphanes, son of Antiochus the king, who had been an hostage at Rome, and he reigned in the hundred and thirty and seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.
GreekΚαὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ αὐτῶν ῥίζα ἁμαρτωλὸς Ἀντίοχος Ἐπιφανὴς, υἱὸς Ἀντιόχου βασιλέως, ὃς ἦν ὅμηρα ἐν τῇ Ῥώμῃ· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ἔτει ἑκατοστῷ καὶ τριακοστῷ καὶ ἑβδόμῳ βασιλείας Ἑλλήνων.
11
BrentonIn those days went there out of Israel wicked men, who persuaded many, saying, Let us go and make a covenant with the heathen that are round about us: for since we departed from them we have had much sorrow.
GreekἘν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐξῆλθον ἐξ Ἰσραὴλ υἱοὶ παράνομοι, καὶ ἀνέπεισαν πολλοὺς, λέγοντες, πορευθῶμεν, καὶ διαθώμεθα διαθήκην μετὰ τῶν ἐθνῶν τῶν κύκλῳ ἡμῶν, ὅτι ἀφʼ ἧς ἐχωρίσθημεν ἀπʼ αὐτῶν, εὗρεν ἡμᾶς κακὰ πολλά.
12
BrentonSo this device pleased them well.
GreekΚαὶ ἠγαθύνθη ὁ λόγος ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτῶν.
13
BrentonThen certain of the people were so forward herein, that they went to the king, who gave them licence to do after the ordinances of the heathen:
GreekΚαὶ προεθυμήθησάν τινες ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν ποιῆσαι τὰ δικαιώματα τῶν ἐθνῶν.
14
Brentonwhereupon they built a place of exercise at Jerusalem according to the customs of the heathen:
GreekΚαὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν γυμνάσιον ἐν Ἱεροσολύμοις κατὰ τὰ νόμιμα τῶν ἐθνῶν.
15
Brentonand made themselves uncircumcised, and forsook the holy covenant, and joined themselves to the heathen, and were sold to do mischief.
GreekΚαὶ ἐποίησαν ἑαυτοῖς ἀκροβυστίας, καὶ ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ διαθήκης ἁγίας· καὶ ἐζεύχθησαν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ ἐπράθησαν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρόν.
16
BrentonNow when the kingdom was established before Antiochus, he thought to reign over Egypt, that he might have the dominion of two realms.
GreekΚαὶ ἡτοιμάσθη ἡ βασιλεία ἐναντίον Ἀντιόχου· καὶ ὑπέλαβε βασιλεῦσαι τῆς Αἰγύπτου, ὅπως βασιλεύσῃ ἐπὶ τὰς δύο βασιλείας.
17
BrentonWherefore he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots, and elephants, and horsemen, and a great navy,
GreekΚαὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Αἴγυπτον ἐν ὄχλῳ βαρεῖ, ἐν ἅρμασι, καὶ ἐν ἐλέφασι, καὶ ἐν ἱππεῦσι, καὶ ἐν στόλῳ μεγάλῳ.
18
Brentonand made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt: but Ptolemee was afraid of him, and fled; and many were wounded to death.
GreekΚαὶ συνεστήσατο πόλεμον πρὸς Πτολεμαῖον βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου· καὶ ἐνετράπη Πτολεμαῖος ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔφυγε· καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι πολλοί.
19
BrentonThus they got the strong cities in the land of Egypt, and he took the spoils thereof.
GreekΚαὶ κατελάβοντο τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυρὰς ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ· καὶ ἔλαβε τὰ σκῦλα γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
20
BrentonAnd after that Antiochus had smitten Egypt, he returned again in the hundred forty and third year, and went up against Israel and Jerusalem with a great multitude,
GreekΚαὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἀντιόχος μετὰ τὸ πατάξαι Αἴγυπτον ἐν τῷ ἑκατοστῷ καὶ τεσσαρακοστῷ καὶ τρίτῳ ἔτει· καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἀνέβη εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὄχλῳ βαρεῖ.
21
Brentonand entered proudly into the sanctuary, and took away the golden altar, and the candlestick of light, and all the vessels thereof,
GreekΚαὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸ ἁγίασμα ἐν ὑπερηφανείᾳ, καὶ ἔλαβε τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χρυσοῦν, καὶ τὴν λυχνίαν τοῦ φωτὸς, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς,
22
Brentonand the table of the shewbread, and the pouring vessels, and the vials, and the censers of gold, and the veil, and the crowns, and the golden ornaments that were before the temple, all which he pulled off.
Greekκαὶ τὴν τράπεζαν τῆς προθέσεως, καὶ τὰ σπονδεῖα, καὶ τὰς φιάλας, καὶ τὰς θυΐσκας τὰς χρυσᾶς, καὶ τὸ καταπέτασμα, καὶ τοὺς στεφάνους, καὶ τὸν κόσμον τὸν χρυσοῦν τὸν κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ, καὶ ἐλέπισε πάντα.
23
BrentonHe took also the silver and the gold, and the precious vessels: also he took the hidden treasures which he found.
GreekΚαὶ ἔλαβε τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ τὸ χρυσίον, καὶ τὰ σκεύη τὰ ἐπιθυμητά· καὶ ἔλαβε τοὺς θησαυροὺς τοὺς ἀποκρύφους οὓς εὗρε.
24
BrentonAnd when he had taken all away, he went into his own land, having made a great massacre, and spoken very proudly.
GreekΚαὶ λαβὼν πάντα ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐποίησε φονοκτονίαν, καὶ ἐλάλησεν ὑπερηφανείαν μεγάλην.
25
BrentonTherefore there was great mourning in Israel, in every place where they were;
GreekΚαὶ ἐγένετο πένθος μέγα ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ αὐτῶν.
26
Brentonso that the princes and elders mourned, the virgins and young men were made feeble, and the beauty of women was changed.
GreekΚαὶ ἐστέναξαν ἄρχοντες καὶ πρεσβύτεροι, παρθένοι καὶ νεανίσκοι ἠσθένησαν, καὶ τὸ κάλλος τῶν γυναικῶν ἠλλοιώθη.
27
BrentonEvery bridegroom took up lamentation, and she that sat in the marriage chamber was in heaviness.
GreekΠᾶς νυμφίος ἀνέλαβε θρῆνον, καὶ καθημένη ἐν παστῷ ἐγένετο ἐν πένθει.
28
BrentonThe land also was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.
GreekΚαὶ ἐσείσθη ἡ γῆ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας αὐτήν· καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος Ἰακὼβ ἐνεδύσατο αἰσχύνην.
29
BrentonAnd after two years fully expired, the king sent his chief collector of tribute unto the cities of Juda, who came unto Jerusalem with a great multitude,
GreekΚαὶ μετὰ δύο ἔτη ἡμερῶν ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἄρχοντα φορολογίας εἰς τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα· καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὄχλῳ βαρεῖ.
30
Brentonand spake peaceable words unto them, but all was deceit: for when they had given him credence, he fell suddenly upon the city, and smote it very sore, and destroyed much people of Israel.
GreekΚαὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς λόγους εἰρηνικοὺς ἐν δόλῳ· καὶ ἐνεπίστευσαν αὐτῷ· καὶ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ἐξάπινα, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὴν πληγὴν μεγάλην, καὶ ἀπώλεσε λαὸν πολὺν ἐξ Ἰσραήλ.
31
BrentonAnd when he had taken the spoils of the city, he set it on fire, and pulled down the houses and walls thereof on every side.
GreekΚαὶ ἔλαβε τὰ σκῦλα τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν αὐτὴν πυρὶ, καὶ καθεῖλε τοὺς οἴκους αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ τείχη αὐτῆς κύκλῳ.
32
BrentonBut the women and children took they captive, and possessed the cattle.
GreekΚαὶ ᾐχμαλώτευσαν τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ τὰ τέκνα, καὶ τὰ κτήνη ἐκληρονόμησαν.
33
BrentonThen builded they the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with mighty towers, and made it a stronghold for them.
GreekΚαὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν τὴν πόλιν Δαυὶδ τείχει μεγάλῳ καὶ ἰσχυρῷ, πύργοις ὀχυροῖς, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς ἄκραν.
34
BrentonAnd they put therein a sinful nation, wicked men, and fortified themselves therein.
Greekκαὶ ἔθηκαν ἐκεῖ ἔθνος ἁμαρτωλὸν, ἄνδρας παρανόμους, καὶ ἐνίσχυσαν ἐν αὐτῇ.
35
BrentonThey stored it also with armour and victuals, and when they had gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem, they laid them up there, and so they became a sore snare:
GreekΚαὶ παρέθεντο ὅπλα καὶ τροφὰς, καὶ συναγαγόντες τὰ σκῦλα Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἀπέθεντο ἐκεῖ· καὶ ἐγένοντο εἰς μεγάλην παγίδα.
36
Brentonfor it was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil adversary to Israel.
GreekΚαὶ ἐγένετο εἰς ἔνεδρον τῷ ἁγιάσματι, καὶ εἰς διάβολον πονηρὸν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ διαπαντός.
37
BrentonThus they shed innocent blood on every side of the sanctuary, and defiled it:
GreekΚαὶ ἐξέχεαν αἷμα ἀθῷον κύκλῳ τοῦ ἁγιάσματος, καὶ ἐμόλυναν τὸ ἁγίασμα.
38
Brentoninsomuch that the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled because of them: whereupon the city was made an habitation of strangers, and became strange to those that were born in her; and her own children left her.
GreekΚαὶ ἔφυγον οἱ κάτοικοι Ἱερουσαλὴμ διʼ αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐγένετο κατοικία ἀλλοτρίων· καὶ ἐγένετο ἀλλοτρία τοῖς γεννήμασιν αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς ἐγκατέλιπον αὐτήν.
39
BrentonHer sanctuary was laid waste like a wilderness, her feasts were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honour into contempt.
GreekΤὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτῆς ἠρημώθη ὡς ἔρημος, αἱ ἑορταὶ αὐτῆς ἐστράφησαν εἰς πένθος, τὰ σάββατα αὐτῆς εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν, ἡ τιμὴ αὐτῆς εἱς ἐξουδένωσιν.
40
BrentonAs had been her glory, so was her dishonour increased, and her excellency was turned into mourning.
GreekΚατὰ τὴν δόξαν αὐτῆς ἐπληθύνθη ἡ ἀτιμία αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτῆς ἐστράφη εἰς πένθος.
41
BrentonMoreover king Antiochus wrote to his whole kingdom, that all should be one people,
GreekΚαὶ ἔγραψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀντίοχος πάσῃ τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ εἶναι πάντας λαὸν ἕνα,
42
Brentonand every one should leave his laws: so all the heathen agreed according to the commandment of the king.
Greekκαὶ ἐγκαταλιπεῖν ἕκαστον τὰ νόμιμα αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐπεδέξατο πάντα τὰ ἔθνη κατὰ τὸν λόγον τοῦ βασιλέως.
43
BrentonYea, many also of the Israelites consented to his religion, and sacrificed unto idols, and profaned the sabbath.
GreekΚαὶ πολλοὶ ἀπὸ Ἰσραὴλ εὐδόκησαν τῇ λατρείᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔθυσαν τοῖς εἰδώλοις, καὶ ἐβεβήλωσαν τὸ σάββατον.
44
BrentonFor the king had sent letters by messengers unto Jerusalem and the cities of Juda, that they should follow the strange laws of the land,
GreekΚαὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς βιβλία ἐν χειρὶ ἀγγέλων εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα, πορευθῆναι ὀπίσω νομίμων ἀλλοτρίων τῆς γῆς,
45
Brentonand forbid burnt offerings, and sacrifice, and drink offerings, in the temple; and that they should profane the sabbaths and festival days:
Greekκαὶ κωλῦσαι ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ θυσίαν καὶ σπονδὴν ἐκ τοῦ ἁγιάσματος, καὶ βεβηλῶσαι σάββατα καὶ ἑορτὰς,
46
Brentonand pollute the sanctuary and holy people:
Greekκαὶ μιᾶναι ἁγίασμα καὶ ἁγίους·
47
Brentonset up altars, and groves, and chapels of idols, and sacrifice swine's flesh, and unclean beasts:
Greekοἰκοδομῆσαι βωμοὺς, καὶ τεμένη, καὶ εἰδωλεῖα, καὶ θύειν ὕεια, καὶ κτήνη κοινὰ,
48
Brentonthat they should also leave their children uncircumcised, and make their souls abominable with all manner of uncleanness and profanation:
Greekκαὶ ἀφιέναι τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν ἀπεριτμήτους, βδελύξαι τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν ἐν παντὶ ἀκαθάρτῳ καὶ βεβηλώσει,
49
Brentonto the end they might forget the law, and change all the ordinances.
Greekὥστε ἐπιλαθέσθαι τοῦ νόμου, καὶ ἀλλάξαι πάντα τὰ δικαιώματα.
50
BrentonAnd whosoever would not do according to the commandment of the king, he said, he should die.
GreekΚαὶ ὃς ἂν μὴ ποιήσῃ κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦ βασιλέως, ἀποθανεῖται.
51
BrentonIn the selfsame manner wrote he to his whole kingdom, and appointed overseers over all the people, commanding the cities of Juda to sacrifice, city by city.
GreekΚατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους ἔγραψε πάσῃ τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐπισκόπους ἐπὶ πάντα τὸν λαόν· καὶ ἐνετείλατο ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα θυσιάζειν κατὰ πόλιν καὶ πόλιν.
52
BrentonThen many of the people were gathered unto them, to wit, every one that forsook the law; and so they committed evils in the land;
GreekΚαὶ συνηθροίσθησαν ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ πρὸς αὐτοὺς πολλοὶ, πᾶς ὁ ἐγκαταλιπὼν τὸν νόμον· καὶ ἐποιησαν κακὰ ἐν τῇ γῇ.
53
Brentonand drove the Israelites into secret places, even wheresoever they could flee for succour.
GreekΚαὶ ἔθεντο τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν κρύφοις ἐν παντὶ φυγαδευτηρίῳ αὐτῶν.
54
BrentonNow the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred forty and fifth year, they set up the abomination of desolation upon the altar, and builded idol altars throughout the cities of Juda on every side;
GreekΚαὶ τῇ πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ Χασελεῦ, τῷ πέμπτῳ καὶ τεσσαρακοστῷ καὶ ἑκατοστῷ ἔτει, ᾠκοδόμησαν βδέλυγμα ἐρημώσεως ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον, καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν Ἰούδα κύκλῳ ᾠκοδόμησαν βωμούς.
55
Brentonand burnt incense at the doors of their houses, and in the streets.
GreekΚαὶ ἐπὶ τῶν θυρῶν τῶν οἰκιῶν, καὶ ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις ἐθυμίων.
56
BrentonAnd when they had rent in pieces the books of the law which they found, they burnt them with fire.
GreekΚαὶ τὰ βιβλία τοῦ νόμου ἃ εὗρον, ἐνεπύρισαν πυρὶ κατασχίσαντες.
57
BrentonAnd wheresoever was found with any the book of the testament, or if any consented to the law, the king's commandment was, that they should put him to death.
GreekΚαὶ ὅπου εὑρίσκετο παρά τινι βιβλίον διαθήκης, καὶ εἴ τις συνευδόκει τῷ νόμῳ, τὸ σύγκριμα τοῦ βασιλέως ἐθανάτου αὐτόν.
58
BrentonThus did they by their authority unto the Israelites every month, to as many as were found in the cities.
GreekἘν ἰσχύϊ αὐτῶν ἐποίουν οὕτως τῷ Ἰσραὴλ τοῖς εὑρισκομένοις ἐν παντὶ μηνὶ καὶ μηνὶ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι.
59
BrentonNow the five and twentieth day of the month they did sacrifice upon the idol altar, which was upon the altar of God.
GreekΚαὶ τῇ πέμπτῃ καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνὸς θυσιάζοντες ἐπὶ τὸν βωμὸν ὃς ἦν ἐπὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου.
60
BrentonAt which time according to the commandment they put to death certain women, that had caused their children to be circumcised.
GreekΚαὶ τὰς γυναῖκας τὰς περιτετμηκυίας τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν ἐθανάτωσαν, κατὰ τὸ πρόσταγμα.
61
BrentonAnd they hanged the infants about their necks, and rifled their houses, and slew them that had circumcised them.
GreekΚαὶ ἐκρέμασαν τὰ βρέφη ἐκ τῶν τραχήλων αὐτῶν, καὶ τοὺς οἴκους αὐτῶν προενόμευσαν, καὶ τοὺς περιτετμηκότας αὐτοὺς ἐθανάτωσαν.
62
BrentonHowbeit many in Israel were fully resolved and confirmed in themselves not to eat any unclean thing.
GreekΚαὶ πολλοὶ ἐν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκραταιώθησαν, καὶ ὠχυρώθησαν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς τοῦ μὴ φαγεῖν κοινά.
63
BrentonWherefore they chose rather to die, that they might not be defiled with meats, and that they might not profane the holy covenant: so then they died.
GreekΚαὶ ἐπελέξαντο ἀποθανεῖν, ἵνα μὴ μιανθῶσι τοῖς βρώμασι, καὶ μὴ βεβηλώσωσι διαθήκην ἁγίαν· καὶ ἀπέθανον.
64
BrentonAnd there was very great wrath upon Israel.
GreekΚαὶ ἐγένετο ὀργὴ μεγάλη ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ σφόδρα.
