1 Maccabees 9:43 Context
40Then Jonathan and they that were with him rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and made a slaughter of them in such sort, as many fell down dead, and the remnant fled into the mountain, and they took all their spoils. 41Thus was the marriage turned into mourning, and the noise of their melody into lamentation. 42So when they had avenged fully the blood of their brother, they turned again to the marsh of Jordan. 43Now when Bacchides heard hereof, he came on the sabbath day unto the banks of Jordan with a great power. 44Then Jonathan said to his company, Let us go up now and fight for our lives, for it standeth not with us to day, as in time past: 45For, behold, the battle is before us and behind us, and the water of Jordan on this side and that side, the marsh likewise and wood, neither is there place for us to turn aside. 46Wherefore cry ye now unto heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies.
