1 Maccabees 15:25-27

Good News Translation

Antiochus the Seventh Breaks with Simon

²⁵ King Antiochus laid siege to Dor for a second time, keeping it under constant attack. He built siege platforms, and his blockade kept Trypho and his men from going in or out. ²⁶ Simon sent 2,000 well-trained soldiers to help Antiochus, as well as silver and gold and a great deal of equipment. ²⁷ But Antiochus refused to accept them, canceled all the previous agreements that he had made with Simon, and became his enemy.
