1 Maccabees 4:16 In-Context

14 And they joined battle: and the Gentiles were routed, and fled into the plain.
15 But all the hindmost of them fell by the sword, and they pursued them as far as Gezeron, and even to the plains of Idumea, and of Azotus, and of Jamnia: and there fell of them to the number of three thousand men.
16 And Judas returned again with his army that followed him,
17 And he said to the people: Be not greedy of the spoils: for there is war before us:
18 And Gorgias and his army are near us in the mountain: but stand ye now against our enemies, and overthrow them, and you shall take the spoils afterwards with safety.
