1 Maccabees 11:52-62

52 So King Demetrius sat on the throne of his kingdom, and the land was quiet before him.
53 But he broke his word about all that he had promised; he became estranged from Jonathan and did not repay the favors that Jonathan had done him, but treated him very harshly.
54 After this Trypho returned, and with him the young boy Antiochus who began to reign and put on the crown.
55 All the troops that Demetrius had discharged gathered around him; they fought against Demetrius, and he fled and was routed.
56 Trypho captured the elephants and gained control of Antioch.
57 Then the young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying, "I confirm you in the high priesthood and set you over the four districts and make you one of the king's Friends."
58 He also sent him gold plate and a table service, and granted him the right to drink from gold cups and dress in purple and wear a gold buckle.
59 He appointed Jonathan's brother Simon governor from the Ladder of Tyre to the borders of Egypt.
60 Then Jonathan set out and traveled beyond the river and among the towns, and all the army of Syria gathered to him as allies. When he came to Askalon, the people of the city met him and paid him honor.
61 From there he went to Gaza, but the people of Gaza shut him out. So he besieged it and burned its suburbs with fire and plundered them.
62 Then the people of Gaza pleaded with Jonathan, and he made peace with them, and took the sons of their rulers as hostages and sent them to Jerusalem. And he passed through the country as far as Damascus.
