2macc 12:34
King James Version
“And it happened that in their fighting together a few of the Jews were slain.”
Context
31They gave them thanks, desiring them to be friendly still unto them: and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks approaching.
32And after the feast, called Pentecost, they went forth against Gorgias the governor of Idumea,
33Who came out with three thousand men of foot and four hundred horsemen.
34And it happened that in their fighting together a few of the Jews were slain.
35At which time Dositheus, one of Bacenor’s company, who was on horseback, and a strong man, was still upon Gorgias, and taking hold of his coat drew him by force; and when he would have taken that cursed man alive, a horseman of Thracia coming upon him smote off his shoulder, so that Gorgias fled unto Marisa.
36Now when they that were with Gorgias had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord, that he would shew himself to be their helper and leader of the battle.
37And with that he began in his own language, and sung psalms with a loud voice, and rushing unawares upon Gorgias’ men, he put them to flight.
