LXX 2 Macc 15:17

Παρακληθέντες δὲ τοῖς Ἰούδου λόγοις πάνυ καλοῖς καὶ δυναμένοις ἐπʼ ἀρετὴν παρορμῆσαι καὶ ψυχὰς νέων ἐπανδρῶσαι, διέγνωσαν μὴ στρατεύεσθαι, γενναίως δὲ ἐνφέρεσθαι, καὶ μετὰ πάσης εὐανδρείας ἐμπλακέντες κρῖναι τὰ πράγματα, διὰ τὸ καὶ τὴν πόλιν καὶ τὰ ἅγια καὶ τὸ ἱερὸν κινδυνεύειν.

Thus being exhorted with the words of Judas, which were very good, and proper to stir up the courage, and strengthen the hearts of the young men, they resolved to fight, and to set upon them manfully: that valour might decide the matter, because the holy city, and the temple were in danger.
