1 Maccabees 9:38 In-Context

36 But the family of Jambri from Medeba came out and captured John and everything he had. And they left with it.
37 After this Jonathan and his brother Simon were told, "The family of Jambri is celebrating a great wedding. They are bringing the bride, a daughter of one of the great officials of Canaan, from Nadabath with a large escort."
38 Remembering how their brother John had been killed, they went out and hid under cover of the mountain.
39 They looked out and saw a rowdy procession with a large amount of baggage. The bridegroom came out with his friends and his brothers to meet them with tambourines, musicians, and many weapons.
40 Then those who were with Jonathan ambushed them and began killing them. They wounded and killed many. The rest fled to the mountain, and the Jews took all their goods.
