1 Maccabees 9:58

58 Then all the ungodly men held a council, saying, "Behold, Jonathan and his company are at ease and dwell without care. Now therefore we will bring Bacchides hither, who shall take them all in one night."

1 Maccabees 9:58 In-Context

56 So Alcimus died at that time with great torment.

57 Now when Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead he returned to the king, whereupon the land of Judea was at rest two years.

58 Then all the ungodly men held a council, saying, "Behold, Jonathan and his company are at ease and dwell without care. Now therefore we will bring Bacchides hither, who shall take them all in one night."

59 So they went and consulted with him.

60 Then Bacchides removed and came with a great host, and sent letters privily to his adherents in Judea that they should take Jonathan and those who were with him; however they could not, because their counsel was known unto them.
