1 Maccabees 4:45-47
Revised Standard Version
45 And they thought it best to tear it down, lest it bring reproach upon them, for the Gentiles had defiled it. So they tore down the altar, 46 and stored the stones in a convenient place on the temple hill until there should come a prophet to tell what to do with them. 47 Then they took unhewn[a] stones, as the law directs, and built a new altar like the former one.
