2 Maccabees 12:17-19

Common English Bible

¹⁷ Withdrawing from there, they made a journey of ninety-four miles^[a] to Charax, to those Jews who are called Toubians. ¹⁸ They didn’t find Timothy in the area because he left the region without any success, except that he left behind one military force in a well-secured place. ¹⁹ But the Maccabee’s commanders Dositheus and Sosipater marched out and destroyed those Timothy left in the fortified place, killing more than ten thousand men.
