LXX 2 Macc 9:11

ἐνταῦθα οὗν ἤρξατο τὸ πολὺ τῆς ὑπερηφανίας λήγειν τεθραυσμένος, καὶ εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἔρχεσθαι θείᾳ μάστιγι, κατὰ στιγμὴν ἐπιτεινόμενος ταῖς ἀλγηδόσιν.

And by this means, being brought from his great pride, he began to come to the knowledge of himself, being admonished by the scourge of God, his pains increasing every moment.
