1 Maccabees 9:37-39

New Catholic Bible

³⁷ Some time afterward the news was reported to Jonathan and his brother Simon: “The sons of Jambri are celebrating a great wedding, and with a large retinue they are escorting from Nadabath the daughter of one of the great nobles of Canaan.” ³⁸ Remembering how their brother John had been slain, they went up and hid themselves under the cover of a mountain.

³⁹ As they kept watch, they observed a tumultuous procession come into sight carrying a great amount of baggage. The bridegroom came forth, escorted by his fully armed friends and his kindred, to welcome the bridal party with tambourines and musicians.
