1 Maccabees 6:57-59

Wycliffe Bible

⁵⁷ Lysias hast(en)ed for to go, and said to the king, and (the) dukes of the host, We fail each day, and little meat (or food) is (left) to (or for) us, and the place which we besiege, is strong, and it falleth to us for to ordain of the realm.

⁵⁸ Therefore now give we right hands to these men, and make we peace with them, and with all the folk of them;

⁵⁹ and ordain we to them, (so) that they go in lawful things as before; for why for the lawful things of them which we despised, they be wroth [or soothly for the lawful things of them they be wroth], and have done all these things.
