1 Maccabees 11:68-72
-
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.
-
71 Then Jonathan rent his clothes, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed.
-
72 Afterwards turning again to battle, he put them to flight, and so they ran away.
