| 1 | When Demetrius heard that Nicanor and his army had fallen in battle, he sent Bacchides and Alcimus into the land of Judah a second time, and with them the right wing of the army. | Death of Judas Maccabaeus. 1Mace.9.1-22 | Καὶ ἤκουσεν Δημήτριος ὅτι ἔπεσεν Νικάνωρ καὶ ἡ δύναμις αὐτοῦ ἐν πολέμῳ, καὶ προσέθετο τὸν Βακχίδην καὶ τὸν Ἄλκιμον ἐκ δευτέρου ἀποστεῖλαι εἰς γῆν Ιουδα καὶ τὸ δεξιὸν κέρας μετ' αὐτῶν. | |
| 2 | They went by the road which leads to Gilgal and encamped against Mesaloth in Arbela, and they took it and killed many people. | καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς Γαλγαλα καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ Μαισαλωθ τὴν ἐν Αρβηλοις καὶ προκατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ ἀπώλεσαν ψυχὰς ἀνθρώπων πολλάς. | ||
| 3 | In the first month of the one hundred and fifty-second year they encamped against Jerusalem; | καὶ τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ πρώτου ἔτους τοῦ δευτέρου καὶ πεντηκοστοῦ καὶ ἑκατοστοῦ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ· | ||
| 4 | then they marched off and went to Berea with twenty thousand foot soldiers and two thousand cavalry. | καὶ ἀπῆραν καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν εἰς Βερεαν ἐν εἴκοσι χιλιάσιν ἀνδρῶν καὶ δισχιλίᾳ ἵππῳ. | ||
| 5 | Now Judas was encamped in Elasa, and with him were three thousand picked men. | καὶ Ιουδας ἦν παρεμβεβληκὼς ἐν Ελασα, καὶ τρισχίλιοι ἄνδρες μετ' αὐτοῦ ἐκλεκτοί. | ||
| 6 | When they saw the huge number of the enemy forces, they were greatly frightened, and many slipped away from the camp, until no more than eight hundred of them were left. | καὶ εἶδον τὸ πλῆθος τῶν δυνάμεων ὅτι πολλοί εἰσιν, καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα· καὶ ἐξερρύησαν πολλοὶ ἀπὸ τῆς παρεμβολῆς, οὐ κατελείφθησαν ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀλλ' ἢ ὀκτακόσιοι ἄνδρες. | ||
| 7 | When Judas saw that his army had slipped away and the battle was imminent, he was crushed in spirit, for he had no time to assemble them. | καὶ εἶδεν Ιουδας ὅτι ἀπερρύη ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁ πόλεμος ἔθλιβεν αὐτόν, καὶ συνετρίβη τῇ καρδίᾳ, ὅτι οὐκ εἶχεν καιρὸν συναγαγεῖν αὐτούς, | ||
| 8 | He became faint, but he said to those who were left, "Let us rise and go up against our enemies. We may be able to fight them." | καὶ ἐξελύθη καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς καταλειφθεῖσιν Ἀναστῶμεν καὶ ἀναβῶμεν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὑπεναντίους ἡμῶν, ἐὰν ἄρα δυνώμεθα πολεμῆσαι πρὸς αὐτούς. | ||
| 9 | But they tried to dissuade him, saying, "We are not able. Let us rather save our own lives now, and let us come back with our brethren and fight them; we are too few." | καὶ ἀπέστρεφον αὐτὸν λέγοντες Οὐ μὴ δυνώμεθα, ἀλλ' ἢ σῴζωμεν τὰς ἑαυτῶν ψυχὰς τὸ νῦν, ἐπιστρέψωμεν καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἡμῶν καὶ πολεμήσωμεν πρὸς αὐτούς, ἡμεῖς δὲ ὀλίγοι. | ||
| 10 | But Judas said, "Far be it from us to do such a thing as to flee from them. If our time has come, let us die bravely for our brethren, and leave no cause to question our honour." | καὶ εἶπεν Ιουδας Μὴ γένοιτο ποιῆσαι τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο, φυγεῖν ἀπ' αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰ ἤγγικεν ὁ καιρὸς ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀποθάνωμεν ἐν ἀνδρείᾳ χάριν τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν καὶ μὴ καταλίπωμεν αἰτίαν τῇ δόξῃ ἡμῶν. | ||
| 11 | Then the army of Bacchides marched out from the camp and took its stand for the encounter. The cavalry was divided into two companies, and the slingers and the archers went ahead of the army, as did all the chief warriors. | καὶ ἀπῆρεν ἡ δύναμις ἀπὸ τῆς παρεμβολῆς καὶ ἔστησαν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἐμερίσθη ἡ ἵππος εἰς δύο μέρη, καὶ οἱ σφενδονῆται καὶ οἱ τοξόται προεπορεύοντο τῆς δυνάμεως, καὶ οἱ πρωταγωνισταὶ πάντες οἱ δυνατοί, Βακχίδης δὲ ἦν ἐν τῷ δεξιῷ κέρατι. | ||
| 12 | Bacchides was on the right wing. Flanked by the two companies, the phalanx advanced to the sound of the trumpets; and the men with Judas also blew their trumpets. | καὶ ἤγγισεν ἡ φάλαγξ ἐκ τῶν δύο μερῶν καὶ ἐφώνουν ταῖς σάλπιγξιν, καὶ ἐσάλπισαν οἱ παρὰ Ιουδου καὶ αὐτοὶ ταῖς σάλπιγξιν· | ||
| 13 | The earth was shaken by the noise of the armies, and the battle raged from morning till evening. | καὶ ἐσαλεύθη ἡ γῆ ἀπὸ τῆς φωνῆς τῶν παρεμβολῶν, καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ πόλεμος συνημμένος ἀπὸ πρωίθεν ἕως ἑσπέρας. | ||
| 14 | Judas saw that Bacchides and the strength of his army were on the right; then all the stouthearted men went with him, | καὶ εἶδεν Ιουδας ὅτι Βακχίδης καὶ τὸ στερέωμα τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐν τοῖς δεξιοῖς, καὶ συνῆλθον αὐτῷ πάντες οἱ εὔψυχοι τῇ καρδίᾳ, | ||
| 15 | and they crushed the right wing, and he pursued them as far as Mount Azotus. | καὶ συνετρίβη τὸ δεξιὸν μέρος ἀπ' αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐδίωκεν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἕως Αζωτου ὄρους. | ||
| 16 | When those on the left wing saw that the right wing was crushed, they turned and followed close behind Judas and his men. | καὶ οἱ εἰς τὸ ἀριστερὸν κέρας εἶδον ὅτι συνετρίβη τὸ δεξιὸν κέρας, καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν κατὰ πόδας Ιουδου καὶ τῶν μετ' αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν ὄπισθεν. | ||
| 17 | The battle became desperate, and many on both sides were wounded and fell. | καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ὁ πόλεμος, καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι πολλοὶ ἐκ τούτων καὶ ἐκ τούτων, | ||
| 18 | Judas also fell, and the rest fled. | καὶ Ιουδας ἔπεσεν, καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ ἔφυγον. | ||
| 19 | Then Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother and buried him in the tomb of their fathers at Modein, | καὶ ἦρεν Ιωναθαν καὶ Σιμων Ιουδαν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτῶν καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ τάφῳ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν Μωδειν. | ||
| 20 | and wept for him. And all Israel made great lamentation for him; they mourned many days and said, | καὶ ἔκλαυσαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐκόψαντο αὐτὸν πᾶς Ισραηλ κοπετὸν μέγαν καὶ ἐπένθουν ἡμέρας πολλὰς καὶ εἶπον | ||
| 21 | "How is the mighty fallen, the saviour of Israel!" | Πῶς ἔπεσεν δυνατὸς σῴζων τὸν Ισραηλ. | ||
| 22 | Now the rest of the acts of Judas, and his wars and the brave deeds that he did, and his greatness, have not been recorded, for they were very many. | καὶ τὰ περισσὰ τῶν λόγων Ιουδου καὶ τῶν πολέμων καὶ τῶν ἀνδραγαθιῶν, ὧν ἐποίησεν, καὶ τῆς μεγαλωσύνης αὐτοῦ οὐ κατεγράφη· πολλὰ γὰρ ἦν σφόδρα. | ||
| 23 | After the death of Judas, the lawless emerged in all parts of Israel; all the doers of injustice appeared. | Jonathan succeeds Judas. 1Mace.9.23-31 | Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὴν τελευτὴν Ιουδου ἐξέκυψαν οἱ ἄνομοι ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ὁρίοις Ισραηλ, καὶ ἀνέτειλαν πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀδικίαν. | |
| 24 | In those days a very great famine occurred, and the country deserted with them to the enemy. | ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐγενήθη λιμὸς μέγας σφόδρα, καὶ αὐτομόλησεν ἡ χώρα μετ' αὐτῶν. | ||
| 25 | And Bacchides chose the ungodly and put them in charge of the country. | καὶ ἐξέλεξεν Βακχίδης τοὺς ἀσεβεῖς ἄνδρας καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτοὺς κυρίους τῆς χώρας. | ||
| 26 | They sought and searched for the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance on them and made sport of them. | καὶ ἐξεζήτουν καὶ ἠρεύνων τοὺς φίλους Ιουδου καὶ ἦγον αὐτοὺς πρὸς Βακχίδην, καὶ ἐξεδίκα αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐνέπαιζεν αὐτοῖς. | ||
| 27 | Thus there was great distress in Israel, such as had not been since the time that prophets ceased to appear among them. | καὶ ἐγένετο θλῖψις μεγάλη ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ, ἥτις οὐκ ἐγένετο ἀφ' ἧς ἡμέρας οὐκ ὤφθη προφήτης αὐτοῖς. | ||
| 28 | Then all the friends of Judas assembled and said to Jonathan, | καὶ ἠθροίσθησαν πάντες οἱ φίλοι Ιουδου καὶ εἶπον τῷ Ιωναθαν | ||
| 29 | "Since the death of your brother Judas there has been no one like him to go against our enemies and Bacchides, and to deal with those of our nation who hate us. | Ἀφ οὗ ὁ ἀδελφός σου Ιουδας τετελεύτηκεν, καὶ ἀνὴρ ὅμοιος αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐξελθεῖν καὶ εἰσελθεῖν πρὸς τοὺς ἐχθροὺς καὶ Βακχίδην καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐχθραίνουσιν τοῦ ἔθνους ἡμῶν· | ||
| 30 | So now we have chosen you today to take his place as our ruler and leader, to fight our battle." | νῦν οὖν σὲ ᾑρετισάμεθα σήμερον τοῦ εἶναι ἀντ αὐτοῦ ἡμῖν εἰς ἄρχοντα καὶ ἡγούμενον τοῦ πολεμῆσαι τὸν πόλεμον ἡμῶν. | ||
| 31 | And Jonathan at that time accepted the leadership and took the place of Judas his brother. | καὶ ἐπεδέξατο Ιωναθαν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ τὴν ἥγησιν καὶ ἀνέστη ἀντὶ Ιουδου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ. | ||
| 32 | When Bacchides learned of this, he tried to kill him. | The campaigns of Jonathan. 1Mace.9.32-73 | Καὶ ἔγνω Βακχίδης καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι. | |
| 33 | But Jonathan and Simon his brother and all who were with him heard of it, and they fled into the wilderness of Tekoa and camped by the water of the pool of Asphar. | καὶ ἔγνω Ιωναθαν καὶ Σιμων ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντες οἱ μετ' αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔφυγον εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Θεκωε καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ τὸ ὕδωρ λάκκου Ασφαρ. | ||
| 34 | Bacchides found this out on the sabbath day, and he with all his army crossed the Jordan. | καὶ ἔγνω Βακχίδης τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων καὶ ἦλθεν αὐτὸς καὶ πᾶν τὸ στράτευμα αὐτοῦ πέραν τοῦ Ιορδάνου. - | ||
| 35 | And Jonathan sent his brother as leader of the multitude and begged the Nabateans, who were his friends, for permission to store with them the great amount of baggage which they had. | καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἡγούμενον τοῦ ὄχλου καὶ παρεκάλεσεν τοὺς Ναβαταίους φίλους αὐτοῦ τοῦ παραθέσθαι αὐτοῖς τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτῶν τὴν πολλήν. | ||
| 36 | But the sons of Jambri from Medeba came out and seized John and all that he had, and departed with it. | καὶ ἐξῆλθον οἱ υἱοὶ Ιαμβρι οἱ ἐκ Μηδαβα καὶ συνέλαβον Ιωαννην καὶ πάντα, ὅσα εἶχεν, καὶ ἀπῆλθον ἔχοντες. | ||
| 37 | After these things it was reported to Jonathan and Simon his brother, "The sons of Jambri are celebrating a great wedding, and are conducting the bride, a daughter of one of the great nobles of Canaan, from Nadabath with a large escort." | μετὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους ἀπήγγειλαν Ιωναθαν καὶ Σιμωνι τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ ὅτι Υἱοὶ Ιαμβρι ποιοῦσιν γάμον μέγαν καὶ ἄγουσιν τὴν νύμφην ἀπὸ Ναδαβαθ, θυγατέρα ἑνὸς τῶν μεγάλων μεγιστάνων Χανααν, μετὰ παραπομπῆς μεγάλης. | ||
| 38 | And they remembered the blood of John their brother, and went up and hid under cover of the mountain. | καὶ ἐμνήσθησαν τοῦ αἵματος Ιωαννου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ ἐκρύβησαν ὑπὸ τὴν σκέπην τοῦ ὄρους. | ||
| 39 | They raised their eyes and looked, and saw a tumultuous procession with much baggage; and the bridegroom came out with his friends and his brothers to meet them with tambourines and musicians and many weapons. | καὶ ἦραν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ θροῦς καὶ ἀποσκευὴ πολλή, καὶ ὁ νυμφίος ἐξῆλθεν καὶ οἱ φίλοι αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῶν μετὰ τυμπάνων καὶ μουσικῶν καὶ ὅπλων πολλῶν. | ||
| 40 | Then they rushed upon them from the ambush and began killing them. Many were wounded and fell, and the rest fled to the mountain; and they took all their goods. | καὶ ἐξανέστησαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἐνέδρου καὶ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς, καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι πολλοί, καὶ οἱ ἐπίλοιποι ἔφυγον εἰς τὸ ὄρος· καὶ ἔλαβον πάντα τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῶν. | ||
| 41 | Thus the wedding was turned into mourning and the voice of their musicians into a funeral dirge. | καὶ μετεστράφη ὁ γάμος εἰς πένθος καὶ φωνὴ μουσικῶν αὐτῶν εἰς θρῆνον. | ||
| 42 | And when they had fully avenged the blood of their brother, they returned to the marshes of the Jordan. | καὶ ἐξεδίκησαν τὴν ἐκδίκησιν αἵματος ἀδελφοῦ αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν εἰς τὸ ἕλος τοῦ Ιορδάνου. - | ||
| 43 | When Bacchides heard of this, he came with a large force on the sabbath day to the banks of the Jordan. | καὶ ἤκουσεν Βακχίδης καὶ ἦλθεν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων ἕως τῶν κρηπίδων τοῦ Ιορδάνου ἐν δυνάμει πολλῇ. | ||
| 44 | And Jonathan said to those with him, "Let us rise up now and fight for our lives, for today things are not as they were before. | καὶ εἶπεν Ιωναθαν τοῖς παρ' αὐτοῦ Ἀναστῶμεν δὴ καὶ πολεμήσωμεν περὶ τῶν ψυχῶν ἡμῶν, οὐ γάρ ἐστιν σήμερον ὡς ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν· | ||
| 45 | For look! the battle is in front of us and behind us; the water of the Jordan is on this side and on that, with marsh and thicket; there is no place to turn. | ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ πόλεμος ἐξ ἐναντίας καὶ ἐξόπισθεν ἡμῶν, τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ τοῦ Ιορδάνου ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν καὶ ἕλος καὶ δρυμός, οὐκ ἔστιν τόπος τοῦ ἐκκλῖναι· | ||
| 46 | Cry out now to Heaven that you may be delivered from the hands of our enemies." | νῦν οὖν κεκράξατε εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν, ὅπως διασωθῆτε ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν ἐχθρῶν ἡμῶν. | ||
| 47 | So the battle began, and Jonathan stretched out his hand to strike Bacchides, but he eluded him and went to the rear. | καὶ συνῆψεν ὁ πόλεμος· καὶ ἐξέτεινεν Ιωναθαν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ πατάξαι τὸν Βακχίδην, καὶ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω. | ||
| 48 | Then Jonathan and the men with him leaped into the Jordan and swam across to the other side, and the enemy did not cross the Jordan to attack them. | καὶ ἐνεπήδησεν Ιωναθαν καὶ οἱ μετ' αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν Ιορδάνην καὶ διεκολύμβησαν εἰς τὸ πέραν, καὶ οὐ διέβησαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς τὸν Ιορδάνην. | ||
| 49 | And about one thousand of Bacchides' men fell that day. | ἔπεσον δὲ παρὰ Βακχίδου τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἰς χιλίους ἄνδρας. | ||
| 50 | Bacchides then returned to Jerusalem and built strong cities in Judea: the fortress in Jericho, and Emmaus, and Beth-horon, and Bethel, and Timnath, and Pharathon, and Tephon, with high walls and gates and bars. | καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν πόλεις ὀχυρὰς ἐν τῇ Ιουδαίᾳ, τὸ ὀχύρωμα τὸ ἐν Ιεριχω καὶ τὴν Αμμαους καὶ τὴν Βαιθωρων καὶ τὴν Βαιθηλ καὶ τὴν Θαμναθα Φαραθων καὶ τὴν Τεφων, ἐν τείχεσιν ὑψηλοῖς καὶ πύλαις καὶ μοχλοῖς· | ||
| 51 | And he placed garrisons in them to harass Israel. | καὶ ἔθετο φρουρὰν ἐν αὐτοῖς τοῦ ἐχθραίνειν τῷ Ισραηλ. | ||
| 52 | He also fortified the city of Beth-zur, and Gazara, and the citadel, and in them he put troops and stores of food. | καὶ ὠχύρωσεν τὴν πόλιν τὴν Βαιθσουραν καὶ Γαζαρα καὶ τὴν ἄκραν καὶ ἔθετο ἐν αὐταῖς δυνάμεις καὶ παραθέσεις βρωμάτων. | ||
| 53 | And he took the sons of the leading men of the land as hostages and put them under guard in the citadel at Jerusalem. | καὶ ἔλαβεν τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἡγουμένων τῆς χώρας ὅμηρα καὶ ἔθετο αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἄκρᾳ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἐν φυλακῇ. | ||
| 54 | In the one hundred and fifty-third year, in the second month, Alcimus gave orders to tear down the wall of the inner court of the sanctuary. He tore down the work of the prophets! | Καὶ ἐν ἔτει τρίτῳ καὶ πεντηκοστῷ καὶ ἑκατοστῷ τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἐπέταξεν Ἄλκιμος καθαιρεῖν τὸ τεῖχος τῆς αὐλῆς τῶν ἁγίων τῆς ἐσωτέρας· καὶ καθεῖλεν τὰ ἔργα τῶν προφητῶν καὶ ἐνήρξατο τοῦ καθαιρεῖν. | ||
| 55 | But he only began to tear it down, for at that time Alcimus was stricken and his work was hindered; his mouth was stopped and he was paralysed, so that he could no longer say a word or give commands concerning his house. | ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐπλήγη Ἄλκιμος, καὶ ἐνεποδίσθη τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπεφράγη τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ, καὶ παρελύθη καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο ἔτι λαλῆσαι λόγον καὶ ἐντείλασθαι περὶ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ. | ||
| 56 | And Alcimus died at that time in great agony. | καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἄλκιμος ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ μετὰ βασάνου μεγάλης. | ||
| 57 | When Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead, he returned to the king, and the land of Judah had rest for two years. | καὶ εἶδεν Βακχίδης ὅτι ἀπέθανεν Ἄλκιμος, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα. καὶ ἡσύχασεν ἡ γῆ Ιουδα ἔτη δύο. | ||
| 58 | Then all the lawless plotted and said, "See! Jonathan and his men are living in quiet and confidence. So now let us bring Bacchides back, and he will capture them all in one night." | Καὶ ἐβουλεύσαντο πάντες οἱ ἄνομοι λέγοντες Ἰδοὺ Ιωναθαν καὶ οἱ παρ' αὐτοῦ ἐν ἡσυχίᾳ κατοικοῦσιν πεποιθότες· νῦν οὖν ἀνάξομεν τὸν Βακχίδην, καὶ συλλήμψεται αὐτοὺς πάντας ἐν νυκτὶ μιᾷ. | ||
| 59 | And they went and consulted with him. | καὶ πορευθέντες συνεβουλεύσαντο αὐτῷ. | ||
| 60 | He started to come with a large force, and secretly sent letters to all his allies in Judea, telling them to seize Jonathan and his men; but they were unable to do it, because their plan became known. | καὶ ἀπῆρεν τοῦ ἐλθεῖν μετὰ δυνάμεως πολλῆς καὶ ἀπέστειλεν λάθρᾳ ἐπιστολὰς πᾶσιν τοῖς συμμάχοις αὐτοῦ τοῖς ἐν τῇ Ιουδαίᾳ, ὅπως συλλάβωσιν τὸν Ιωναθαν καὶ τοὺς μετ' αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο, ὅτι ἐγνώσθη ἡ βουλὴ αὐτῶν. | ||
| 61 | And Jonathan's men seized about fifty of the men of the country who were leaders in this treachery, and killed them. | καὶ συνέλαβον ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῆς χώρας τῶν ἀρχηγῶν τῆς κακίας εἰς πεντήκοντα ἄνδρας καὶ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς. | ||
| 62 | Then Jonathan with his men, and Simon, withdrew to Bethbasi in the wilderness; he rebuilt the parts of it that had been demolished, and they fortified it. | καὶ ἐξεχώρησεν Ιωναθαν καὶ Σιμων καὶ οἱ μετ' αὐτοῦ εἰς Βαιθβασι τὴν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν τὰ καθῃρημένα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐστερέωσαν αὐτήν. | ||
| 63 | When Bacchides learned of this, he assembled all his forces, and sent orders to the men of Judea. | καὶ ἔγνω Βακχίδης καὶ συνήγαγεν πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος αὐτοῦ καὶ τοῖς ἐκ τῆς Ιουδαίας παρήγγειλεν· | ||
| 64 | Then he came and encamped against Bethbasi; he fought against it for many days and made machines of war. | καὶ ἐλθὼν παρενέβαλεν ἐπὶ Βαιθβασι καὶ ἐπολέμησεν αὐτὴν ἡμέρας πολλὰς καὶ ἐποίησεν μηχανάς. | ||
| 65 | But Jonathan left Simon his brother in the city, while he went out into the country; and he went with only a few men. | καὶ ἀπέλιπεν Ιωναθαν Σιμωνα τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς τὴν χώραν καὶ ἦλθεν ἐν ἀριθμῷ. | ||
| 66 | He struck down Odomera and his brothers and the sons of Phasiron in their tents. | καὶ ἐπάταξεν Οδομηρα καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Φασιρων ἐν τῷ σκηνώματι αὐτῶν, καὶ ἤρξαντο τύπτειν καὶ ἀνέβαινον ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν. | ||
| 67 | Then he began to attack and went into battle with his forces; and Simon and his men sallied out from the city and set fire to the machines of war. | καὶ Σιμων καὶ οἱ μετ' αὐτοῦ ἐξῆλθον ἐκ τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἐνεπύρισαν τὰς μηχανάς· | ||
| 68 | They fought with Bacchides, and he was crushed by them. They distressed him greatly, for his plan and his expedition had been in vain. | καὶ ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς τὸν Βακχίδην, καὶ συνετρίβη ὑπ' αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔθλιβον αὐτὸν σφόδρα, ὅτι ἦν ἡ βουλὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ ἔφοδος αὐτοῦ κενή. | ||
| 69 | So he was greatly enraged at the lawless men who had counseled him to come into the country, and he killed many of them. Then he decided to depart to his own land. | καὶ ὠργίσθη ἐν θυμῷ τοῖς ἀνδράσιν τοῖς ἀνόμοις τοῖς συμβουλεύσασιν αὐτῷ ἐλθεῖν εἰς τὴν χώραν καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν ἐξ αὐτῶν πολλοὺς καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο τοῦ ἀπελθεῖν εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ. | ||
| 70 | When Jonathan learned of this, he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him and obtain release of the captives. | καὶ ἐπέγνω Ιωναθαν καὶ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν πρέσβεις τοῦ συνθέσθαι πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰρήνην καὶ ἀποδοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν. | ||
| 71 | He agreed, and did as he said; and he swore to Jonathan that he would not try to harm him as long as he lived. | καὶ ἐπεδέξατο καὶ ἐποίησεν κατὰ τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ μὴ ἐκζητῆσαι αὐτῷ κακὸν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ· | ||
| 72 | He restored to him the captives whom he had formerly taken from the land of Judah; then he turned and departed to his own land, and came no more into their territory. | καὶ ἀπέδωκεν αὐτῷ τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν, ἣν ᾐχμαλώτευσεν τὸ πρότερον ἐκ γῆς Ιουδα, καὶ ἀποστρέψας ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ προσέθετο ἔτι ἐλθεῖν εἰς τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν. | ||
| 73 | Thus the sword ceased from Israel. And Jonathan dwelt in Michmash. And Jonathan began to judge the people, and he destroyed the ungodly out of Israel. | καὶ κατέπαυσεν ῥομφαία ἐξ Ισραηλ· καὶ ᾤκησεν Ιωναθαν ἐν Μαχμας, καὶ ἤρξατο Ιωναθαν κρίνειν τὸν λαὸν καὶ ἠφάνισεν τοὺς ἀσεβεῖς ἐξ Ισραηλ. | ||
