1 Maccabees 1:37DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 37 of 67
"And laid them up there: and they became a great snare."
In context
35And they built the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them:
36And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour, and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem;
37And laid them up there: and they became a great snare.
38And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil devil in Israel.
39And they shed innocent blood round about the sanctuary, and defiled the holy place.
