2 Maccabees 12:3-5

Good News Translation

³ About this time, the people of Joppa did a cruel thing to the Jews of their city. They pretended to be friendly to the Jews and invited them and their families to go sailing with them on ships they had provided. ⁴ Since all the people of the town had decided to do this, the Jews suspected nothing and accepted the invitation out of a feeling of good will. But when they were out at sea, the people of Joppa drowned all two hundred of them.

⁵ As soon as Judas heard of this inhuman thing that had been done to those Jews, he informed his men.
