King James Version
“And they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and uttered wicked words.”
Context
31And there were slain of footmen twenty thousand and five hundred, and six hundred horsemen.
32As for Timotheus himself, he fled into a very strong hold, called Gawra, where Chereas was governor.
33But they that were with Maccabeus laid siege against the fortress courageously four days.
34And they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and uttered wicked words.
35Nevertheless upon the fifth day early twenty young men of Maccabeus’ company, inflamed with anger because of the blasphemies, assaulted the wall manly, and with a fierce courage killed all that they met withal.
36Others likewise ascending after them, whiles they were busied with them that were within, burnt the towers, and kindling fires burnt the blasphemers alive; and others broke open the gates, and, having received in the rest of the army, took the city,
37And killed Timotheus, that was hid in a certain pit, and Chereas his brother, with Apollophanes.
