4 Maccabees 10:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ Then they broke his fingers, arms, legs, and elbows. ⁷ In spite of this, they weren’t strong enough to break his will, so they put away their tools and tore off his scalp the way the Scythians do it—they used their fingernails. ⁸ Then they dragged him to the wheel. As they were pulling his spine apart, he saw his own flesh falling off his bones and his blood pouring out.
