1 Maccabees 12:24-26

Wycliffe Bible

²⁴ And (then) Jonathan heard, that the princes of Demetrius went out with much host, over that (than) before, for to fight against him.

²⁵ And he went out from Jerusalem, and ran against them (or met them) in the country of Hamath; for he gave no space to them, for to enter into his country.

²⁶ And he sent espies into (or unto) the tents of them, and they (re)turned again, and told (him), that they ordained for to come over thither in (the) night.
