1 Maccabees 13:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.

²¹ And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals.

²² And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.
