1 Maccabees 15:25-27

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

Antiochus VII Threatens Simon

²⁵ King Antiochus besieged Dor for the second time, continually throwing his forces against it and making engines of war; and he shut Trypho up and kept him from going out or in. ²⁶ And Simon sent to Antiochus^[a] two thousand picked troops, to fight for him, and silver and gold and a large amount of military equipment. ²⁷ But he refused to receive them, and broke all the agreements he formerly had made with Simon, and became estranged from him.
