1 Maccabees 11:52 Context
50Graunt vs peace, and let the Iewes cease from assaulting vs and the citie. 51With that they cast away their weapons, and made peace, and the Iewes were honoured in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realme, and they returned to Ierusalem hauing great spoiles. 52So king Demetrius sate on the throne of his kingdome, and the land was quiet before him. 53Neuerthelesse hee dissembled in all that euer hee spake, and estranged himselfe from Ionathan, neither rewarded he him, according to the benefits which hee had receiued of him, but troubled him very sore. 54After this returned Tryphon, and with him the yong childe Antiochus, who reigned and was crowned.
