1 Maccabees 4:16

16 This done, Judas returned again with his host from pursuing them

1 Maccabees 4:16 In-Context

14 So they joined in battle; and the heathen, being discomfited, fled into the plain.
15 However all the hindmost of them were slain with the sword; for they pursued them unto Gazara, and unto the plains of Idumea, and Azotus, and Jamnia, so that there were slain of them some three thousand men.
16 This done, Judas returned again with his host from pursuing them
17 and said to the people, "Be not greedy for the spoils, inasmuch as there is a battle before us,
18 and Gorgias and his host are here by us in the mountain. But stand ye now against your enemies and overcome them, and after this ye may boldly take the spoils."
