1 Maccabees 6:26 Context
24For which cause they of our nation besiege the towre, and are alienated from vs: Moreouer as many of vs as they could light on, they slew, and spoiled our inheritance. 25Neither haue they stretched out their hand against vs only, but also against all their borders. 26And behold this day are they besieging the towre at Ierusalem to take it: the Sanctuary also, and Bethsura haue they fortified. 27Wherefore if thou doest not preuent them quickly, they wil doe greater things then these, neither shalt thou be able to rule them. 28Now when the king heard this, he was angry, and gathered together all his friends, and the captaines of his armie, and those that had charge of the horse.
