1 Maccabees 9:40-42

New Catholic Bible

⁴⁰ The Jews sprang on them from their place of ambush and began to slay them. Many fell wounded, and the rest fled toward the mountain; and the Jews gathered up all their spoil. ⁴¹ Thus the wedding was turned into mourning and the sound of their music into lamentation.^{[a] 42} Having thereby gained revenge for the blood of their brother, the Jews returned to the marshes of the Jordan.
