| 1 | And the king of Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom. | Et rex Aegypti congregavit exercitum, sicut arena quae est circa oram maris, et naves multas: et quaerebat obtinere regnum Alexandri dolo, et addere illud regno suo. | Καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου ἤθροισε δυνάμεις πολλὰς, ὡς τὴν ἄμμον τὴν περὶ τὸ χεῖλος τῆς θαλάσσης, καὶ πλοῖα πολλά· καὶ ἐζήτησε κατακρατῆσαι τῆς βασιλείας Ἀλεξάνδρου δόλῳ, καὶ προσθεῖναι αὐτὴν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὑτοῦ. |
| 2 | And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law. | Et exiit in Syriam verbis pacificis, et aperiebant ei civitates, et occurrebant ei: quia mandaverat Alexander rex exire ei obviam, eo quod socer suus esset. | Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς Συρίαν λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς, καὶ ἤνοιγον αὐτῷ οἱ ἀπὸ τῶν πόλεων, καὶ συνήντων αὐτῷ, ὅτι ἐντολὴ ἦν Ἀλεξάνδρου τοῦ βασιλέως συναντᾷν αὐτῷ, διὰ τὸ πενθερὸν αὐτοῦ εἶναι, |
| 3 | Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city. | Cum autem introiret civitatem Ptolemaeus, ponebat custodias militum in singulis civitatibus. | Ὡς δὲ εἰσεπορεύετο εἰς τὰς πόλεις Πτολεμαῖος, ἀπέτασσε τὰς δυνάμεις φρουρὰν ἐν ἑκάστῃ πόλει. |
| 4 | And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way. | Et ut appropiavit Azoto, ostenderunt ei templum Dagon succensum igni, et Azotum, et cetera eius demolita, et corpora proiecta, et eorum, qui caesi erant in bello, tumulos quos fecerant secus viam. | Ὡς δὲ ἤγγισεν Ἀζώτου, ἔδειξαν αὐτῷ τὸ ἱερὸν Δαγὼν ἐμπεπυρισμένον, καὶ Ἄζωτον, καὶ τὰ περιπόλια αὐτῆς καθῃρημένα, καὶ τὰ σώματα ἐῤῥιμμένα, καὶ τοὺς ἐμπεπυρισμένους οὓς ἐνεπύρισεν ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ· ἐποίησαν γὰρ θημωνίας αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ αὐτοῦ. |
| 5 | And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace. | Et narraverunt regi quia haec fecit Ionathas, ut invidiam facerent ei: et tacuit rex. | Καὶ διηγήσαντο τῷ βασιλεῖ ἃ ἐποίησεν Ἰωνάθαν, εἰς τὸ ψογῆσαι αὐτόν· καὶ ἐσίγησεν ὁ βασιλεύς. |
| 6 | And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there. | Et occurrit Ionathas regi in Ioppen cum gloria, et invicem se salutaverunt, et dormierunt illic. | Καὶ συνήντησεν Ἰωνάθαν τῷ βασιλεῖ εἰς Ἰόππην μετὰ δόξης, καὶ ἠσπάσαντο ἀλλήλους, καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν ἐκεῖ. |
| 7 | And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem. | Et abiit Ionathas cum rege usque ad fluvium qui vocatur Eleutherus: et reversus est in Ierusalem. | Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰωνάθαν μετὰ τοῦ βασιλέως ἕως τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ καλουμένου Ἐλευθέρου, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
| 8 | And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander. | Rex autem Ptolemaeus obtinuit dominium civitatum usque Seleuciam maritimam, et cogitabat in Alexandrum consilia mala. | Ὁ δὲ βασιλεὺς Πτολεμαῖος ἐκυρίευσε τῶν πόλεων τῆς παραλίας ἕως Σελευκίας τῆς παραθαλασσίας, καὶ διελογίζετο περὶ Ἀλεξάνδρου λογισμοὺς πονηρούς. |
| 9 | And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father. | Et misit legatos ad Demetrium, dicens: Veni, componamus inter nos pactum, et dabo tibi filiam meam, quam habet Alexander, et regnabis in regno patris tui: | Καὶ ἀπέστειλε πρέσβεις πρὸς Δημήτριον τὸν βασιλέα, λέγων, δεῦρο συνθώμεθα πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς διαθήκην, καὶ δώσω σοι τὴν θυγατέρα μου ἣν ἔχει Ἀλέξανδρος, καὶ βασιλεύσεις τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ πατρός σου. |
| 10 | For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me. | poenitet enim me quod dederim illi filiam meam: quaesivit enim me occidere. | Μεταμεμέλημαι γὰρ δοὺς αὐτῷ τὴν θυγατέρα μου, ἐζήτησε γὰρ ἀποκτεῖναί με. |
| 11 | And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom. | Et vituperavit eum, propterea quod concupierat regnum eius. | Καὶ ἐψόγησεν αὐτὸν χάριν τοῦ ἐπιθυμῆσαι αὐτὸν τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ· |
| 12 | And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest. | Et abstulit filiam suam, et dedit eam Demetrio, et alienavit se ab Alexandro, et manifestae sunt inimicitiae eius. | Καὶ ἀφελόμενος αὐτοῦ τὴν θυγατέρα, ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν τῷ Δημητρίῳ, καὶ ἠλλοιώθη τοῦ Ἀλεξάνδρου, καὶ ἐφάνη ἡ ἔχθρα αὐτῶν. |
| 13 | And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia. | Et intravit Ptolemaeus Antiochiam, et imposuit duo diademata capiti suo, Aegypti et Asiae. | Καὶ εἰσῆλθε Πτολεμαῖος εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν, καὶ περιέθετο δύο διαδήματα περὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, τὸ τῆς Ἀσίας καὶ Αἰγύπτου. |
| 14 | Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled. | Alexander autem rex erat in Cilicia illis temporibus: quia rebellabant qui erant in locis illis. | Ἀλέξανδρος δὲ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἦν ἐν Κιλικίᾳ κατὰ τοὺς καιροὺς ἐκείνους, ὅτι ἀπεστάτουν οἱ ἀπὸ τῶν τόπων ἐκείνων. |
| 15 | And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight. | Et audivit Alexander, et venit ad eum in bellum: et produxit Ptolemaeus rex exercitum, et occurrit ei in manu valida, et fugavit eum. | Καὶ ἤκουσεν Ἀλέξανδρος, καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπʼ αὐτὸν πολέμῳ· καὶ ἐξήγαγε Πτολεμαῖος τὴν δύναμιν, καὶ ἀπήντησεν αὐτῷ ἐν χειρὶ ἰσχυρᾷ, καὶ ἐτροπώσατο αὐτόν. |
| 16 | And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted. | Et fugit Alexander in Arabiam, ut ibi protegeretur: rex autem Ptolemaeus exaltatus est. | Καὶ ἔφυγεν Ἀλέξανδρος εἰς τὴν Ἀραβίαν, τοῦ σκεπασθῆναι αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ· ὁ δὲ βασιλεὺς Πτολεμαῖος ὑψώθη. |
| 17 | And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander’s head, and sent it to Ptolemee. | Et abstulit Zabdiel Arabs caput Alexandri, et misit Ptolemaeo. | Καὶ ἀφειλε Ζαβδιὴλ ὁ Ἄραψ τὴν κεφαλὴν Ἀλεξάνδρου, καὶ ἀπέστειλε τῷ Πτολεμαίῳ. |
| 18 | And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp. | Et rex Ptolemaeus mortuus est in die tertia: et qui erant in munitionibus, perierunt ab his qui erant intra castra. | Καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Πτολεμαῖος ἀπέθανεν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ, καὶ οἱ ὄντες ἐν τοῖς ὀχυρώμασιν ἀπώλοντο ὑπὸ τῶν ἐν τοῖς ὀχυρώμασι. |
| 19 | And Demetrius reigned in the hundred and sixty-seventh year. | Et regnavit Demetrius anno centesimo sexagesimo septimo. | Καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Δημήτριος ἔτους ἑβδόμου καὶ ἑξηκοστοῦ καὶ ἑκατοστοῦ. |
| 20 | In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it. | In diebus illis congregavit Ionathas eos qui erant in Iudaea, ut expugnarent arcem quae est in Ierusalem: et fecerunt contra eam machinas multas. | Ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις συνήγαγεν Ἰωνάθαν τοὺς ἐκ τῆς Ἰουδαίας, τοῦ ἐκπολεμῆσαι τὴν ἄκραν τὴν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν μηχανὰς πολλάς. |
| 21 | Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle. | Et abierunt quidam qui oderant gentem suam viri iniqui ad regem Demetrium, et renuntiaverunt ei quod Ionathas obsideret arcem. | Καὶ ἐπορεύθησάν τινες μισοῦντες τὸ ἔθνος αὐτῶν, ἄνδρες παράνομοι, πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν αὐτῷ ὅτι Ἰωνάθαν περικάθηται τὴν ἄκραν. |
| 22 | And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him. | Et ut audivit, iratus est: et statim venit ad Ptolemaidam, et scripsit Ionathae ne obsideret arcem, sed occurreret sibi ad colloquium festinato. | Καὶ ἀκούσας ὠργίσθη· ὡς δὲ ἤκουσεν, εὐθέως ἀναζεύξας ἦλθεν εἰς Πτολεμαΐδα, καὶ ἔγραψεν Ἰωνάθαν, τοῦ μὴ περικαθῆσθαι τῇ ἄκρᾳ, καὶ τοῦ ἀπαντῆσαι αὐτὸν αὐτῷ συνμίσγειν εἰς Πτολεμαΐδα τὴν ταχίστην. |
| 23 | But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger. | Ut audivit autem Ionathas, iussit obsidere: et elegit de senioribus Israël, et de sacerdotibus, et dedit se periculo. | Ὡς δὲ ἤκουσεν Ἰωνάθαν, ἐκέλευσε περικαθῆσθαι, καὶ ἐπέλεξε τῶν πρεσβυτέρων Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τῶν ἱερέων, καὶ ἔδωκεν ἑαυτὸν τῷ κινδύνῳ. |
| 24 | And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight. | Et accepit aurum, et argentum, et vestem, et alia xenia multa, et abiit ad regem Ptolemaidam: et invenit gratiam in conspectu eius, | Καὶ λαβὼν ἀργύριον, καὶ χρυσίον, καὶ ἱματισμὸν, καὶ ἕτερα ξένια πλείονα, ἐπορεύθη πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Πτολεμαΐδα, καὶ εὗρε χάριν ἑνώτιον αὐτοῦ. |
| 25 | And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him. | et interpellabant adversus eum quidam iniqui ex gente sua. | Καὶ ἐνετύγχανον κατʼ αὐτοῦ τινὲς ἄνομοι τῆς ἐκ τοῦ ἔθνους. |
| 26 | And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends. | Et fecit ei rex sicut fecerant ei qui ante eum fuerant: et exaltavit eum in conspectu omnium amicorum suorum, | Καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς καθὼς ἐποίησαν αὐτῷ οἱ πρὸ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὕψωσεν αὐτὸν ἐναντίον πάντων τῶν φίλων αὐτοῦ. |
| 27 | And he confirmed him in the high priesthood, and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends. | et statuit ei principatum sacerdotii, et quaecumque alia habuit prius pretiosa, et fecit eum principem amicorum. | Καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτῷ τὴν ἀρχιερωσύνην, καὶ ὅσα ἄλλα εἶχε τίμια τοπρότερον, καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν τῶν πρώτων φίλων ἡγεῖσθαι. |
| 28 | And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents. | Et postulavit Ionathas a rege ut immunem faceret Iudaeam, et tres toparchias, et Samariam et confines eius: et promisit ei talenta trecenta. | Καὶ ἠξίωσεν Ἰωνάθαν τὸν βασιλέα ποιῆσαι τὴν Ἰουδαίαν ἀφορολόγητον, καὶ τὰς τρεῖς τοπαρχίας, καὶ τὴν Σαμαρεῖτιν, καὶ ἐπηγγείλατο αὐτῷ τάλαντα τριακόσια. |
| 29 | And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect. | Et consensit rex: et scripsit Ionathae epistolas de his omnibus, hunc modum continentes: | Καὶ εὐδόκησεν ὁ βασιλεύς, καὶ ἔγραψε τῷ Ἰωνάθαν ἐπιστολὰς περὶ πάντων τούτων ἐχούσας τὸν τρόπον τοῦτον· |
| 30 | King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting. | Rex Demetrius fratri Ionathae salutem, et genti Iudaeorum. | Βασιλεὺς Δημήτριος Ἰωνάθαν τῷ ἀδελφῷ χαίρειν, καὶ ἔθνει Ἰουδαίων. |
| 31 | We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it. | Exemplum epistolae, quam scripsimus Lastheni parenti nostro de vobis, misimus ad vos ut sciretis: | Τὸ ἀντίγραφον τῆς ἐπιστολῆς ἧς ἐγράψαμεν Λασθένει τῷ συγγενεῖ ἡμῶν περὶ ὑμῶν, γεγράφαμεν καὶ πρὸς ὑμᾶς. ὅπως εἰδῆτε. |
| 32 | King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting. | Rex Demetrius Lastheni parenti salutem. | Βασιλεὺς Δημήτριος Λασθένει τῷ πατρὶ χαίρειν. |
| 33 | We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us. | Genti Iudaeorum amicis nostris, et conservantibus quae iusta sunt apud nos, decrevimus benefacere propter benignitatem ipsorum, quam erga nos habent. | Τῷ ἔθνει τῶν Ἰουδαίων φίλοις ἡμῶν καὶ συντηροῦσι τὰ πρὸς ἡμᾶς δίκαια ἐκρίναμεν ἀγαθοποιῆσαι, χάριν τῆς ἑξ αὐτῶν εὐνοίας πρὸς ἡμᾶς. |
| 34 | We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees. | Statuimus ergo illis omnes fines Iudaeae, et tres civitates, Lydan, et Ramathan, quae additae sunt Iudaeae ex Samaria, et omnes confines earum, sequestrari omnibus sacrificantibus in Ierosolymis pro his quae ab eis prius accipiebat rex per singulos annos, et pro fructibus terrae et pomorum. | Ἑστάκαμεν οὖν αὐτοῖς τὰ τε ὅρια τῆς Ἰουδαίας, καὶ τοὺς τρεῖς νομοὺς, Ἀφαίρεμα, καὶ Λύδδαν, καὶ Ῥαμαθὲμ, αἵτινες προσετέθησαν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ ἀπὸ τῆς Σαμαρείτιδος, καὶ πάντα τὰ συγκυροῦντα αὐτοῖς πᾶσι τοῖς θυσιάζουσιν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα, ἀντὶ τῶν βασιλικῶν ὧν ἐλάμβανεν ὁ βασιλεὺς παρʼ αὐτῶν τοπρότερον κατʼ ἐνιαυτὸν ἀπὸ τῶν γεννημάτων τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀκροδρύων. |
| 35 | And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us. | Et alia quae ad nos pertinebant decimarum et tributorum ex hoc tempore, remittimus eis: et areas salinarum, et coronas, quae nobis deferebantur, | Καὶ τὰ ἄλλα τὰ ἀνήκοντα ἡμῖν ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν τῶν δεκατῶν, καὶ τῶν τελῶν τῶν ἀνηκόντων ἡμῖν, καὶ τὰς τοῦ ἁλὸς λίμνας, καὶ τοὺς ἀνήκοντας ἡμῖν στεφάνους, πάντα ἐπαρκῶς παρίεμεν αὐτοῖς. |
| 36 | We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever. | omnia ipsis concedimus: et nihil horum irritum erit, ex hoc, et in omne tempus. | Καὶ οὐκ ἀθετηθήσεται οὐδὲ ἓν τούτων ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ εἰς τὸν ἅπαντα χρόνον. |
| 37 | Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place. | Nunc ergo curate facere horum exemplum, et detur Ionathae, et ponatur in monte sancto, in loco celebri. | Νῦν οὖν ἐπιμέλεσθε τοῦ ποιῆσαι τούτων ἀντίγραφον· καὶ δοθήτω Ἰωνάθαν, καὶ τεθήτω ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ἁγίῳ ἐν τόπῳ ἐπισήμῳ. |
| 38 | And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him. | Et videns Demetrius rex quod siluit terra in conspectu suo, et nihil ei resistit, dimisit totum exercitum suum, unumquemque in locum suum, excepto peregrino exercitu, quem contraxit ab insulis gentium: et inimici erant ei omnes exercitus patrum eius. | Καὶ εἶδε Δημήτριος ὁ βασιλεὺς ὅτι ἡσύχασεν ἡ γῆ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐδὲν αὐτῷ ἀνθειστήκει, καὶ ἀπέλυσε πάσας τὰς δύναμεις αὐτοῦ ἕκαστον εἰς τὸν ἴδιον τόπον, πλὴν τῶν ξένων δυνάμεων ὧν ἐξενολόγησεν ἀπὸ τῶν νήσων τῶν ἐθνῶν· καὶ ἤχθραναν αὐτῷ πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ. |
| 39 | Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander’s party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander. | Tryphon autem erat quidam partium Alexandri prius: et vidit quoniam omnis exercitus murmurabat contra Demetrium, et ivit ad Emalchuel Arabem, qui nutriebat Antiochum filium Alexandri: | Τρύφων δὲ ἦν τῶν παρὰ Ἀλεξάνδρου τοπρότερον, καὶ εἶδεν ὅτι πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις καταγογγύζουσι τοῦ Δημητρίου, καὶ ἐπορεύθη πρὸς Εἰμαλκουαὶ τὸν Ἄραβα, ὃς ἔτρεφε τὸν Ἀντίοχον τὸ παιδάριον τὸ τοῦ Ἀλεξάνδρου· |
| 40 | And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father’s place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days. | et assidebat ei, ut traderet eum ipsi, ut regnaret loco patris sui: et enuntiavit ei quanta fecit Demetrius, et inimicitias exercituum eius adversus illum. Et mansit ibi diebus multis. | καὶ προσήδρευεν αὐτῷ, ὅπως παραδοῖ αὐτὸν αὐτῷ, ὅπως βασιλεύσῃ ἀντὶ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ ὅσα συνετέλεσε Δημήτριος, καὶ τὴν ἔχθραν ἣν ἐχθραίνουσιν αὐτῷ αἱ δυνάμεις αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐκεῖ ἡμέρας πολλάς. |
| 41 | And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel. | Et misit Ionathas ad Demetrium regem, ut eiiceret eos qui in arce erant in Ierusalem, et qui in praesidiis erant: quia impugnabant Israël. | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωνάθαν πρὸς Δημήτριον τὸν βασιλέα, ἵνα ἐκβάλῃ τοὺς ἐκ τῆς ἄκρας ἐξ Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ τοὺς ἐν τοῖς ὀχυρώμασιν, ἦσαν γὰρ πολεμοῦντες τὸν Ἰσραήλ. |
| 42 | And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve. | Et misit Demetrius ad Ionathan, dicens: Non haec tantum faciam tibi, et genti tuae, sed gloria illustrabo te, et gentem tuam, cum fuerit opportunum. | Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Δημήτριος πρὸς Ἰωνάθαν, λέγων, οὐ μόνον ταῦτα ποιήσω σοι καὶ τῷ ἔθνει σου, ἀλλὰ δόξῃ δοξάσω σε καὶ τὸ ἔθνος σου, ἐὰν εὐκαιρίας τύχω. |
| 43 | Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me. | Nunc ergo recte feceris, si miseris in auxilium mihi viros: quia discessit omnis exercitus meus. | Νῦν οὖν ὀρθῶς ποιήσεις ἀποστείλας μοι ἄνδρας οἳ συμμαχήσουσιν, ὅτι ἀπέστησαν πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις μου. |
| 44 | And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming. | Et misit ei Ionathas tria millia virorum fortium Antiochiam: et venerunt ad regem, et delectatus est rex in adventu eorum. | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωνάθαν ἄνδρας τρισχιλίους δυνατοὺς ἰσχύϊ αὐτῷ εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν, καὶ ἤλθοσαν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ εὐφράνθη ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ τῇ ἐφόδῳ αὐτῶν. |
| 45 | And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king. | Et convenerunt qui erant de civitate, centum viginti millia virorum, et volebant interficere regem. | Καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν οἱ ἐκ τῆς πόλεως εἰς μέσον τῆς πόλεως εἰς ἀνδρῶν δώδεκα μυριάδας, καὶ ἠβούλοντο ἀνελεῖν τὸν βασιλέα. |
| 46 | And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight. | Et fugit rex in aulam: et occupaverunt qui erant de civitate, itinera civitatis, et coeperunt pugnare. | Καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁ βασιλεὺς εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν, καὶ κατελάβοντο οἱ ἐκ τῆς πόλεως τὰς διόδους τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἤρξαντο πολεμεῖν. |
| 47 | And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city. | Et vocavit rex Iudaeos in auxilium, et convenerunt omnes simul ad eum, et dispersi sunt omnes per civitatem: | Καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τοὺς Ἰουδαίους ἐπὶ βοήθειαν, καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν πάντες ἅμα· καὶ διεσπάρησαν ἐν τῇ πόλει πάντες ἅμα· καὶ ἀπέκτειναν ἐν τῇ πόλει τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἰς μυριάδας δέκα. |
| 48 | And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king. | et occiderunt in illa die centum millia hominum, et succenderunt civitatem, et ceperunt spolia multa in die illa, et liberaverunt regem. | Καὶ ἐνεπύρισαν τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἐλάβοσαν σκῦλα πολλὰ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, καὶ ἔσωσαν τὸν βασιλέα. |
| 49 | And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying: | Et viderunt qui erant de civitate, quod obtinuissent Iudaei civitatem sicut volebant: et infirmati sunt mente sua, et clamaverunt ad regem cum precibus, dicentes: | Καὶ ἴδον οἱ ἀπὸ τῆς πόλεως ὅτι κατεκράτησαν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι τῆς πόλεως, ὡς ἠβούλοντο, καὶ ἠσθένησαν ταῖς διανοίαις αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐκέκραξαν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα μετὰ δεήσεως, λέγοντες, |
| 50 | Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us, and the city. | Da nobis dextras, et cessent Iudaei oppugnare nos, et civitatem. | δὸς ἡμῖν δεξιὰς, καὶ παυσάσθωσαν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι πολεμοῦντες ἡμᾶς καὶ τὴν πόλιν. |
| 51 | And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils. | Et proiecerunt arma sua, et fecerunt pacem, et glorificati sunt Iudaei in conspectu regis, et in conspectu omnium qui erant in regno eius, et nominati sunt in regno: et regressi sunt in Ierusalem habentes spolia multa. | Καὶ ἔῤῥιψαν τὰ ὅπλα, καὶ ἐποίησαν εἰρήνην· καὶ ἐδοξάσθησαν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι ἐναντίον τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἐνώπιον πάντων τῶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἔχοντες σκῦλα πολλά. |
| 52 | So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him. | Et sedit Demetrius rex in sede regni sui: et siluit terra in conspectu eius. | Καὶ ἐκάθισε Δημήτριος ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ θρόνου τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡσύχασεν ἡ γῆ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ. |
| 53 | And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble. | Et mentitus est omnia quaecumque dixit, et abalienavit se a Ionatha, et non retribuit ei secundum beneficia quae sibi tribuerat, et vexabat eum valde. | Καὶ ἐψεύσατο πάντα ὅσα εἶπε, καὶ ἠλλοτριώθη τῷ Ἰωνάθαν, καὶ οὐκ ἀνταπέδωκε κατὰ τὰς εὐνοίας ἃς ἀνταπέδωκεν αὐτῷ, καὶ ἔθλιβεν αὐτὸν σφόδρα. |
| 54 | And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem. | Post haec autem reversus est Tryphon, et Antiochus cum eo puer adolescens, et regnavit, et imposuit sibi diadema. | Μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα ἀπέστρεψε Τρύφων καὶ Ἀντίοχος μετʼ αὐτοῦ παιδάριον νεώτερον· καὶ ἐβασίλευσε καὶ ἐπέθετο διάδημα. |
| 55 | And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled. | Et congregati sunt ad eum omnes exercitus, quos disperserat Demetrius, et pugnaverunt contra eum: et fugit, et terga vertit. | Καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις ἃς ἀπεσκόρπισε Δημήτριος, καὶ ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ ἔφυγε καὶ ἐτροπώθη. |
| 56 | And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch. | Et accepit Tryphon bestias, et obtinuit Antiochiam. | Καὶ ἔλαβε Τρύφων τὰ θηρία, καὶ κατεκράτησεν Ἀντιοχείας |
| 57 | And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king’s friends. | Et scripsit Antiochus adolescens Ionathae, dicens: Constituo tibi sacerdotium, et constituo te super quatuor civitates, ut sis de amicis regis. | Καὶ ἔγραψεν Ἀντίοχος ὁ νεώτερος τῷ Ἰωνάθαν, λέγων. ἵστημί σοι τὴν ἀρχιερωσύνην, καὶ καθίστημί σε ἐπὶ τῶν τεσσάρων νομῶν, καὶ εἶναί σε τῶν φίλων τοῦ βασιλέως. |
| 58 | And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle: | Et misit illi vasa aurea in ministerium, et dedit ei potestatem bibendi in auro, et esse in purpura, et habere fibulam auream: | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτῷ χρυσώματα καὶ διακονίαν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν πίνειν ἐν χρυσώμασι, καὶ εἶναι ἐν πορφύρᾳ, καὶ ἔχειν πόρπην χρυσῆν. |
| 59 | And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt. | et Simonem fratrem eius constituit ducem a terminis Tyri usque ad fines Aegypti. | Καὶ Σίμωνα τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ κατέστησε στρατηγὸν ἀπὸ τῆς κλίμακος Τύρου ἕως τῶν ὁρίων Αἰγύπτου. |
| 60 | Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city. | Et exiit Ionathas, et perambulabat trans flumen civitates: et congregatus est ad eum omnis exercitus Syriae in auxilium, et venit Ascalonem, et occurrerunt ei honorifice de civitate. | Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἰωνάθαν, καὶ διεπορεύετο πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ, καὶ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι, καὶ ἠθροίσθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις Συρίας εἰς συμμαχίαν, καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ἀσκάλωνα, καὶ ἀπήντησαν αὐτῷ οἱ ἐκ τῆς πόλεως ἐνδόξως. |
| 61 | And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils. | Et abiit inde Gazam: et concluserunt se qui erant Gazae: et obsedit eam, et succendit quae erant in circuitu civitatis, et praedatus est ea. | Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Γάζαν, καὶ ἀπέκλεισαν οἱ ἀπὸ Γάζης, καὶ περιεκάθισε περὶ αὐτὴν, καὶ ἐνεπύρισε τὰ περιπόλια αὐτῆς πυρὶ, καὶ ἐσκύλευσεν αὐτά. |
| 62 | And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus. | Et rogaverunt Gazenses Ionathan, et dedit illis dexteram: et accepit filios eorum obsides, et misit illos in Ierusalem: et perambulavit regionem usque Damascum. | Καὶ ἠξίωσαν οἱ ἀπὸ Γάζης τὸν Ἰωνάθαν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς δεξιάς, καὶ ἔλαβε τοὺς υἱοὺς ἀρχόντων αὐτῶν εἰς ὅμηρα, καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ διῆλθε τὴν χώραν ἕως Δαμασκοῦ. |
| 63 | And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom: | Et audivit Ionathas quod praevaricati sunt principes Demetrii in Cades, quae est in Galilaea, cum exercitu multo, volentes eum removere a negotio regni: | Καὶ ἤκουσεν Ἰωνάθαν ὅτι παρῆσαν οἱ ἄρχοντες Δημητρίου εἰς Κάδης τὴν ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ, μετὰ δυνάμεως πολλῆς, βουλόμενοι μεταστῆσαι αὐτὸν τῆς χρείας. |
| 64 | And he went against them: but left his brother Simon in the country. | et occurrit illis: fratrem autem suum Simonem reliquit intra provinciam. | Καὶ συνήντησεν αὐτοῖς, τὸν δὲ ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ Σίμωνα κατέλιπεν ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ. |
| 65 | And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up. | Et applicuit Simon ad Bethsuram, et expugnabat eam diebus multis, et conclusit eos. | Καὶ παρενέβαλε Σίμων ἐπὶ Βαιθσούρα, καὶ ἐπολέμει αὐτὴν ἡμέρας πολλὰς, καὶ συνέκλεισεν αὐτήν. |
| 66 | And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it. | Et postulaverunt ab eo dextras accipere, et dedit illis: et eiecit eos inde, et cepit civitatem, et posuit in ea praesidium. | Καὶ ἠξίωσαν αὐτὸν τοῦ δεξιὰς λαβεῖν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἐξέβαλεν αὐτοὺς ἐκεῖθεν, καὶ κατελάβετο τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἔθετο ἐπʼ αὐτῇ φρουράν. |
| 67 | And Jonathan, and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor. | Et Ionathas et castra eius applicuerunt ad aquam Genesar, et ante lucem vigilaverunt in campo Asor: | Καὶ Ἰωνάθαν καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ τὸ ὕδωρ Γεννησάρ, καὶ ὤρθρισαν τοπρωῒ εἰς τὸ πεδίον Νασώρ. |
| 68 | And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them. | et ecce castra alienigenarum occurrebant in campo, et tendebant ei insidias in montibus: ipse autem occurrit ex adverso. | Καὶ ἰδοὺ παρεμβολὴ ἀλλοφύλων ἀπήντα αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ, καὶ ἐξέβαλον ἔνεδρον ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν, αὐτοὶ δὲ ἀπήντησαν ἐξεναντίας. |
| 69 | And they that lay in ambush arose out of their places, and joined battle. | Insidiae vero exsurrexerunt de locis suis, et commiserunt praelium. | Τὰ δὲ ἔνεδρα ἐξανέστησαν ἐκ τῶν τόπων αὐτῶν, καὶ συνῆψαν πόλεμον· καὶ ἔφυγον οἱ παρὰ Ἰωνάθαν πάντες, |
| 70 | And all that were on Jonathan’s side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army. | Et fugerunt qui erant ex parte Ionathae omnes, et nemo relictus est ex eis, nisi Mathathias filius Absolomi, et Iudas filius Calphi, princeps militiae exercitus. | οὐδὲ εἷς κατελείφθη ἀπʼ αὐτῶν, πλὴν Ματταθίας ὁ τοῦ Ἀβεσσαλώμου, καὶ Ἰούδας ὁ τοῦ Χαλφί, ἄρχοντες τῆς στρατιᾶς τῶν δυνάμεων. |
| 71 | And Jonathan rent his garments, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed. | Et scidit Ionathas vestimenta sua, et posuit terram in capite suo, et oravit. | Καὶ διέῤῥηξεν Ἰωνάθαν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπέθηκε γῆν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ προσηύξατο. |
| 72 | And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought. | Et reversus est Ionathas ad eos in praelium, et convertit eos in fugam, et pugnaverunt. | Καὶ ὑπέστρεψε πρὸς αὐτοὺς πολέμῳ, καὶ ἐτροπώσατο αὐτούς, καὶ ἔφυγον. |
| 73 | And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither. | Et viderunt qui fugiebant partis illius, et reversi sunt ad eum, et insequebantur cum eo omnes usque Cades ad castra sua, et pervenerunt usque illuc: | Καὶ ἴδον οἱ φεύγοντες οἱ παρʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ ἐδίωκον μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἕως Κάδης ἕως της παρεμβολῆς αὐτῶν, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐκεῖ. |
| 74 | And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem. | et ceciderunt de alienigenis in die illa tria millia virorum: et reversus est Ionathas in Ierusalem. | Καὶ ἔπεσον ἐκ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων ἐν τῇ ἡμέρα ἐκείνῃ εἰς ἄνδρας τρισχιλίους· καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰωνάθαν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
