1 Maccabees 11:46-48

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴⁶ And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.

⁴⁷ And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.

⁴⁸ And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.
