1 Maccabees 5:21-23

Good News Translation

²¹ Simon went into Galilee and fought many battles with the Gentiles. He defeated them ²² and pursued them all the way to the city of Ptolemais, killing about 3,000 of them, and taking the loot. ²³ Then he took the Jews who were in Galilee and Arbatta, with their wives, their children, and all they owned, and brought them back to Judea with him. There was great rejoicing.
