4 Maccabees 15:6-8 Common English Bible (CEB)

6. And this mother of seven loved her children more than any other mother. Through seven pregnancies, she planted profound love toward them within herself.

7. She was forced to have sympathy for each one through the multiple pains of giving birth.

8. Yet she ignored her concern for her children’s temporary safety because of her respect for God.
