1 Maccabees 4:26
King James VersionSource notes
“Now all the strangers that had escaped came and told Lysias what had happened:”
Context
23Then Judas returned to spoil the tents, where they got much gold, and silver, and blue silk, and purple of the sea, and great riches.
24After this they went home, and sung a song of thanksgiving, and praised the Lord in heaven: because it is good, because his mercy endureth forever.
25Thus Israel had a great deliverance that day.
26Now all the strangers that had escaped came and told Lysias what had happened:
27Who, when he heard thereof, was confounded and discouraged, because neither such things as he would were done unto Israel, nor such things as the king commanded him were come to pass.
28The next year therefore following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand choice men of foot, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.
29So they came into Idumea, and pitched their tents at Bethsura, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.
