Context
12Then the strangers lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming over against them.
13Wherefore they went out of the camp to battle; but they that were with Judas sounded their trumpets.
14So they joined battle, and the heathen being discomfited fled into the plain.
15Howbeit all the hindmost of them were slain with the sword: for they pursued them unto Gazera, and unto the plains of Idumea, and Azotus, and Jamnia, so that there were slain of them upon a three thousand men.
16This done, Judas returned again with his host from pursuing them,
17And said to the people, Be not greedy of the spoil inasmuch as there is a battle before us,
18And Gorgias and his host are here by us in the mountain: but stand ye now against our enemies, and overcome them, and after this ye may boldly take the spoils.
