Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.

¹⁸ And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:

¹⁹ And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.
