Maurice's citation of Tertullian led me to the original text in Tacitus, 
Histories, V.9.  This translation is by Church and Brodribb; sorry, but I 
don't have the Latin text of the Histories in my library:

"Cneius Pompeius was the first of our countrymen to subdue the Jews.  
Availing himself of the right of conquest, he entered the temple.  Thus it 
became commonly known that the place stood empty with no similitude of gods 
within, and that the shrine had nothing to reveal.  The walls of Jerusalem 
were destroyed, the templle was left standing."
