2 Maccabees 10:29-31

Good News Translation

²⁹ When the fighting was at its worst, the enemy saw five handsome men riding on horses with gold bridles and leading the Jewish forces. ³⁰ These five men surrounded Judas, protecting him with their own armor and showering the enemy with arrows and thunderbolts. The enemy forces then became so confused and bewildered that they broke ranks, and the Jews cut them to pieces, ³¹ slaughtering 20,500 infantry and 600 cavalry.
