Nevertheless Jonathan, when he heard this, commanded to besiege it still: and he chose certain of the elders of Israel and the priests, and put himself in peril;
24
And took silver and gold, and raiment, and divers presents besides, and went to Ptolemais unto the king, where he found favour in his sight.
25
And though certain ungodly men of the people had made complaints against him,
26
Yet the king entreated him as his predecessors had done before, and promoted him in the sight of all his friends,
27
And confirmed him in the high priesthood, and in all the honours that he had before, and gave him preeminence among his chief friends.
