32 About five hundred of Nicanor's soldiers died. The rest fled into David's City.

1 Maccabees 7:32 In-Context

30 Judas found out that Nicanor had come to him with treacherous intentions. He was afraid of him and wouldn't meet with Nicanor again.
31 When Nicanor learned that his plan had been discovered, he went out to meet Judas in battle near Caphar-salama.
32 About five hundred of Nicanor's soldiers died. The rest fled into David's City.
33 After these events, Nicanor went up to Mount Zion. Some priests from the sanctuary and some of the elders of the people came out to greet him peacefully. They pointed out to him the entirely burned offering that was being offered on behalf of the king.
34 But he mocked, ridiculed, and defiled them, and spoke in an arrogant way.
