1 Maccabees 11:63-70
-
63 Now when Jonathan heard that Demetrius' princes were come to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great power, purposing to remove him out of the country,
-
64 He went to meet them, and left Simon his brother in the country.
-
65 Then Simon encamped against Bethsura and fought against it a long season, and shut it up:
-
66 But they desired to have peace with him, which he granted them, and then put them out from thence, and took the city, and set a garrison in it.
-
67 As for Jonathan and his host, they pitched at the water of Gennesar, from whence betimes in the morning they gat them to the plain of Nasor.
-
68 And, behold, the host of strangers met them in the plain, who, having laid men in ambush for him in the mountains, came themselves over against him.
-
69 So when they that lay in ambush rose out of their places and joined battle, all that were of Jonathan's side fled;
-
70 Insomuch as there was not one of them left, except Mattathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, the captains of the host.
