40Howbeit, he was afraid that Ionathan would not suffer him, and that he would fight against him, wherefore he sought a way, howe to take Ionathan, that he might kill him. So he remoued, and came to Bethsan. 41Then Ionathan went out to meet him with fourtie thousand men, chosen for the battell, and came to Bethsan. 42Now when Tryphon saw that Ionathan came with so great a force, hee durst not stretch his hande against him, 43But receiued him honourably, and cōmended him vnto all his friends, and gaue him gifts, and commaunded his men of warre to be as obedient vnto him, as to himselfe. 44Unto Ionathan also hee said, Why hast thou put all this people to so great trouble, seeing there is no warre betwixt vs?
