2 Maccabees 8:24-26

Wycliffe Bible

²⁴ And for the Almighty was made (the) helper to (or of) them, they slew over nine thousand of men; forsooth they constrained the more part of Nicanor’s host, made feeble by wounds, for to flee.

²⁵ Forsooth when the riches [or the monies] of them, that came to (or for) the buying of them, were taken up, on each side they pursued them; but they (re)turned again, closed (al)together by an hour;

²⁶ for why it was before (the) sabbath, for which cause they lasted not (in) pursuing (them).
