1 Maccabees 9:48

48 Then Jonathan and those who were with him leaped into the Jordan and swam over unto the farther bank; however the other passed not over the Jordan unto them.

1 Maccabees 9:48 In-Context

46 Therefore cry ye now unto heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies."
47 With that they joined in battle; and Jonathan stretched forth his hand to smite Bacchides, but he turned back from him.
48 Then Jonathan and those who were with him leaped into the Jordan and swam over unto the farther bank; however the other passed not over the Jordan unto them.
49 So there were slain on Bacchides' side that day about a thousand men.
50 Afterwards Bacchides returned to Jerusalem and repaired the strong cites in Judea: the fort in Jericho, and Emmaus, and Beth-horon, and Bethel, and Timnath, Pharathon, and Tephon; these did he strengthen with high walls, with gates and with bars.
