1 Maccabees 4:33-35

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³³ Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee: and let all that know thy name, praise thee with hymns.

³⁴ And they joined battle: and there fell of the army of Lysias five thousand men.

³⁵ And when Lysias saw that his men were put to flight, and how bold the Jews were, and that they were ready either to live, or to die manfully, he went to Antioch, and chose soldiers, that they might come again into Judea with greater numbers.
