1 Maccabees 5:6 In-Context

4 Also he remembered the injury of the children of Baean, who had been a snare and an offense unto the people, in that they lay in wait for them on the ways.

5 He shut them up therefore in the towers, and encamped against them, and destroyed them utterly, and burned the towers of that place with fire, and all who were therein.

6 Afterward he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power and many people, with Timothy their captain.

7 So he fought many battles with them, till at length they were discomfited before him; and he smote them.

8 And when he had taken Jazer, with the towns belonging thereto, he returned into Judea.
