51 The rebels threw down their arms and surrendered. The king and everyone in his kingdom now had great respect for the Jews, who returned to Jerusalem with a great deal of loot.
52 Demetrius was firmly established as king, and the country was at peace under his rule,
53 but he broke all his promises and turned against Jonathan. He did not reward him for his loyal service, but instead continued to harass him.
54 Some time later, Trypho returned with the young boy Antiochus and crowned him king.
55 All the soldiers that Demetrius had dismissed then came to the support of the young king. They defeated Demetrius, and he fled.
