2 Maccabees 12:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,

⁹ He came upon the Jamnites also by night, and set the haven on fire with the ships, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem two hundred and forty furlongs off.

¹⁰ And when they were now gone from thence nine furlongs, and were marching towards Timotheus, five thousand footmen and five hundred horsemen of the Arabians set upon them.
