2 Maccabees 2:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ For he treated wisdom in a magnificent manner: and like a wise man, he offered the sacrifice of the dedication, and of the finishing of the temple.

¹⁰ And as Moses prayed to the Lord and fire came down from heaven, and consumed the holocaust: so Solomon also prayed, and fire came down from heaven and consumed the holocaust.

¹¹ And Moses said: Because the sin offering was not eaten, it was consumed.
