W kontekście
21Machabeus considering the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretching out his hands to heaven, called upon the Lord, that worketh wonders, who giveth victory to them that are worthy, not according to the power of their arms, but according as it seemeth good to him.
22And in his prayer he said after this manner: Thou, O Lord, who didst send thy angel in the time of Ezechias king of Juda, and didst kill a hundred and eighty-five thousand of the army of Sennacherib:
23Send now also, O Lord of heaven, thy good angel before us, for the fear and dread of the greatness of thy arm,
24That they may be afraid, who come with blasphemy against thy holy people. And thus he concluded his prayer.
25But Nicanor, and they that were with him came forward, with trumpets and songs.
