2 Maccabees

2 Maccabees 7:29

μὴ φοβηθῇς τὸν δήμιον τοῦτον, ἀλλὰ τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἄξιος γενόμενος ἐπίδεξαι τὸν θάνατον, ἵνα ἐν τῷ ἐλέει σὺν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς σου κομίσωμαί σε.
King James Version (KJV)

Fear not this tormentor, but, being worthy of thy brethren, take thy death, that I may receive thee again in mercy with thy brethren.

Modern English

Do not be afraid of this executioner, but prove yourself worthy of your brothers and accept death, so that in God's mercy I may receive you back again together with them.
