1 Maccabees 5:2-4

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

² and they determined to destroy the descendants of Jacob who lived among them. So they began to kill and destroy among the people. ³ But Judas made war on the descendants of Esau in Idumea, at Akrabattene, because they kept lying in wait for Israel. He dealt them a heavy blow and humbled them and despoiled them.^{(A) 4} He also remembered the wickedness of the sons of Baean, who were a trap and a snare to the people and ambushed them on the highways.
