1 Maccabees 1:26-28

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁶     rulers and elders groaned,
young women and young men became faint,
    the beauty of the women faded.
²⁷ Every bridegroom took up the lament;
    she who sat in the bridal chamber was mourning.
²⁸ Even the land trembled for its inhabitants,
    and all the house of Jacob was clothed with shame.
