1 Maccabees 13:38-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁸ For all that we have decreed in your favour, shall stand in force. The strong holds that you have built, shall be your own.

³⁹ And as for any oversight or fault committed unto this day, we forgive it, and the crown which you owed: and if any other thing were taxed in Jerusalem, now let it not be taxed.

⁴⁰ And if any of you be fit to be enrolled among ours, let them be enrolled, and let there be peace between us.
