2 Maccabees 13:17 Context

¹⁵And hauing giuen the watchword to them that were about him, Uictory is of God; with the most valiant and choice yong men, he went in into the kings tent by night, & slewe in the campe about foure thousand men, and the chiefest of the Elephants, with all that were vpon him. ¹⁶And at last they filled the campe with feare and tumult, and departed with good successe. ¹⁷This was done in the breake of the day, because the protection of the Lord did helpe him. ¹⁸Now when the king had taken a taste of the manlinesse of the Iewes, hee went about to take the holds by policie, ¹⁹And marched towards Bethsura, which was a strōghold of þ^e Iews, but he was put to flight, failed, & lost of his men.
