Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁴ And they wrote a copy thereof to Simon the high priest, and to the people of the Jews.

²⁵ But king Antiochus moved his camp to Dora the second time, assaulting it continually, and making engines: and shut up Tryphon, that he could not go out.

²⁶ And Simon sent to him two thousand chosen men to aid him, silver also, and gold, and abundance of furniture.
