1 Maccabees 10:72

72 Ask and learn who I am, and the rest who take our part. And they shall tell thee that thy foot is not able to stand before our face; for thy fathers have been twice put to flight in their own land.

1 Maccabees 10:72 In-Context

70 "Thou alone liftest up thyself against us, and I am laughed to scorn for thy sake, and reproached. And why dost thou vaunt thy power against us in the mountains?

71 Now therefore, if thou trustest in thine own strength, come down to us into the plain field, and there let us try the matter together; for with me is the power of the cities.

72 Ask and learn who I am, and the rest who take our part. And they shall tell thee that thy foot is not able to stand before our face; for thy fathers have been twice put to flight in their own land.

73 Therefore now thou shalt not be able to abide the horsemen and so great a power in the plain, where is neither stone nor flint, nor place to flee unto."

74 So when Jonathan heard these words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind and, choosing ten thousand men, he went out of Jerusalem where Simon his brother met him to help him.
