2 Maccabees 10:29-31

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁹ But when they were in the heat of the engagement there appeared to the enemies from heaven five men upon horses, comely with golden bridles, conducting the Jews:

³⁰ Two of whom took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe: but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble.

³¹ And there were slain twenty thousand five hundred, and six hundred horsemen.
