1 Maccabees 12:34-36

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁴ (For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius,) and he put a garrison there to keep it.

³⁵ And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people, and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea,

³⁶ And to build up walls in Jerusalem, and raise a mount between the castle and the city, to separate it from the city, that so it might have no communication, and that they might neither buy nor sell.
