52After this went they ouer Iordan, into the great plaine before Bethsan. 53And Iudas gathered together those that came behind, and exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Iudea. 54So they went vp to mount Sion with ioy and gladnesse, where they offered burnt offerings, because not one of them were slaine, vntill they had returned in peace. 55Now what time as Iudas and Ionathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais, 56Ioseph the sonne of Zacharias, and Azarias, captaines of the garisons, heard of the valiant actes and warlike deeds which they had done.
