¹

Now when the nations round about heard that the altar was built, and the sanctuary renewed as before, it displeased them very much.

¹

И҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ оу҆слы́шаша ꙗ҆зы́цы ѡ҆́крестъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ созда́сѧ ѻ҆лта́рь и҆ ѡ҆бнови́сѧ ст҃ы́нѧ ꙗ҆́коже пре́жде, и҆ разгнѣ́вашасѧ ѕѣлѡ̀:

²

Wherefore they thought to destroy the generation of Jacob that was among them, and thereupon they began to slay and destroy the people.

²

и҆ совѣща́шасѧ погꙋби́ти ро́дъ і҆а́кѡвль, и҆̀же бѣ́хꙋ посредѣ̀ и҆́хъ, и҆ нача́ша оу҆бива́ти въ лю́дехъ и҆ и҆стреблѧ́ти.

³

Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea at Acrabattine, because they besieged Israel: and he gave them a great overthrow, and abated their courage, and took their spoils.

³

И҆ ра́товаше і҆ꙋ́да на сы́ны и҆са́ѵѡвы во і҆дꙋме́и, ꙗ҆́же во а҆кравати́нѣ, поне́же ѡ҆бсѣдѧ́хꙋ і҆и҃лѧ: и҆ поразѝ и҆̀хъ ꙗ҆́звою вели́кою, и҆ оу҆тѣснѝ и҆̀хъ, и҆ взѧ̀ коры̑сти и҆́хъ.

⁴

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

⁴

И҆ помѧнꙋ̀ ѕло́бꙋ сынѡ́въ веа́нихъ, и҆̀же бѣ́хꙋ лю́демъ въ сѣ́ть и҆ въ собла́знъ, во є҆́же лови́ти и҆̀мъ на пꙋте́хъ.

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 that were therein.

⁵

И҆ затвори́шасѧ ѿ негѡ̀ въ пѵ́ргѣхъ, и҆ настꙋпѝ на ни́хъ, и҆ проклѧ̀ и҆̀хъ, и҆ зажжѐ пѵ́рги и҆́хъ ѻ҆гне́мъ, со всѣ́ми ꙗ҆̀же въ ни́хъ бѧ́хꙋ.

⁶

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

⁶

И҆ про́йде на сы̑ны а҆ммѡ̑ни, и҆ ѡ҆брѣ́те рꙋ́кꙋ крѣ́пкꙋ и҆ лю́ди мнѡ́ги, и҆ тїмоѳе́а вожда̀ и҆́хъ.

⁷

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

⁷

И҆ соста́ви на ни́хъ бра̑ни мнѡ́ги, и҆ сотре́ни сꙋ́ть пред̾ лице́мъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ побѝ и҆̀хъ,

⁸

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

⁸

и҆ взѧ̀ і҆ази́ра и҆ дщє́ри є҆гѡ̀, и҆ возврати́сѧ во і҆ꙋде́ю.

⁹

Then the heathen that were at Galaad assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters, to destroy them: but they fled to the fortress of Dathema,

⁹

И҆ собра́шасѧ ꙗ҆зы́цы и҆̀же въ галааді́тїдѣ проти́вꙋ і҆и҃лтѧнѡмъ сꙋ́щымъ въ предѣ́лѣхъ и҆́хъ, да и҆збїю́тъ и҆̀хъ. и҆ побѣго́ша въ даѳе́мꙋ тверды́ню.

¹⁰

and sent letters unto Judas and his brethren, saying, The heathen that are round about us are assembled together against us to destroy us:

¹⁰

И҆ посла́ша писа́нїе ко і҆ꙋ́дѣ и҆ бра́тїи є҆гѡ̀, рекꙋ́ще: собра́шасѧ на ны̀ ꙗ҆зы́цы, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ на́съ, и҆зби́ти на́съ,

¹¹

and they are preparing to come and take the fortress where unto we are fled, Timotheus being captain of their host.

¹¹

и҆ гото́вѧтсѧ прїитѝ и҆ взѧ́ти тверды́ню, въ ню́же вбѣго́хомъ, и҆ тїмоѳе́й є҆́сть воево́да си́лъ и҆́хъ:

¹²

Come now therefore, and deliver us from their hands, for many of us are slain:

¹²

нн҃ѣ оу҆̀бо прише́дъ и҆зба́ви на́съ ѿ рꙋкѝ и҆́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ падѐ мно́жество ѿ на́съ:

¹³

yea, all our brethren that were in the places of Tobie are put to death: their wives and their children also they have carried away captives, and borne away their stuff; and they have destroyed there about a thousand men.

¹³

и҆ всѝ бра́тїѧ на̑ша сꙋ́щїи въ мѣ́стѣхъ тꙋві́инихъ оу҆бїе́ни сꙋ́ть, и҆ плѣни́ша же́нъ и҆́хъ и҆ ча̑дъ и҆́хъ и҆ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ и҆́хъ, и҆ погꙋби́ша та́мѡ ꙗ҆́кѡ ты́сѧщꙋ мꙋже́й.

¹⁴

While these letters were yet being read, behold, there came other messengers from Galilee with their clothes rent, who reported on this wise,

¹⁴

И҆ є҆щѐ писа̑нїѧ чтѧ́хꙋсѧ, и҆ сѐ, и҆ні́и вѣ̑стницы прїидо́ша ѿ галїле́и въ раздра́ныхъ ри́захъ, возвѣща́юще по словесє́мъ си̑мъ, рекꙋ́ще:

¹⁵

saying that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyrus, and Sidon, and all Galilee of the Gentiles, were assembled together against them to consume us.

¹⁵

собра́шасѧ на на́съ ѿ птолемаі́ды и҆ тѵ́ра, и҆ сїдѡ́на и҆ всеѧ̀ галїле́и и҆ноплемє́нникъ, є҆́же и҆скорени́ти на́съ.

¹⁶

Now when Judas and the people heard these words, there assembled a great congregation together, to consult what they should do for their brethren, that were in trouble, and assaulted of them.

¹⁶

Є҆гда́ же оу҆слы́ша і҆ꙋ́да и҆ лю́дїе словеса̀ сїѧ̑, собра́сѧ собо́ръ вели́къ оу҆совѣ́товати, что̀ сотворѧ́тъ бра́тїѧмъ свои̑мъ сꙋ́щымъ въ ско́рби и҆ вою́ємымъ ѿ ни́хъ.

¹⁷

Then said Judas unto Simon his brother, Choose thee out men, and go and deliver thy brethren that are in Galilee, for I and Jonathan my brother will go into the country of Galaad.

¹⁷

И҆ речѐ і҆ꙋ́да сі́мѡнꙋ и҆ бра́тꙋ своемꙋ̀: и҆зберѝ себѣ̀ мꙋ́жы и҆ и҆дѝ, и҆ и҆зба́ви бра́тїю твою̀ сꙋ́щꙋю въ галїле́и: а҆́зъ же и҆ бра́тъ мо́й і҆ѡнаѳа́нъ по́йдемъ въ галааді́тъ.

¹⁸

So he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias, captains of the people, with the remnant of the host in Judea to keep it.

¹⁸

И҆ ѡ҆ста́ви і҆ѡ́сифа сы́на заха́рїина и҆ а҆за́рїю воевѡ́ды лю́демъ съ про́чими вѡ́ины во і҆ꙋде́и на хране́нїе,

¹⁹

Unto whom he gave commandment, saying, Take ye the charge of this people, and see that ye make not war against the heathen until the time that we come again.

¹⁹

и҆ заповѣ́да и҆̀мъ, глаго́лѧ: прилѣжи́те лю́демъ си̑мъ и҆ не сотвори́те бра́ни на ꙗ҆зы́ки, до́ндеже мы̀ возврати́мсѧ.

²⁰

Now unto Simon were given three thousand men to go into Galilee, and unto Judas eight thousand men for the country of Galaad.

²⁰

И҆ ѿдѣли́ша сі́мѡнꙋ мꙋже́й трѝ ты́сѧщы, да и҆́детъ въ галїле́ю, і҆ꙋ́дѣ же ѻ҆́смь ты́сѧщъ мꙋже́й въ галааді́тъ.

²¹

Then went Simon into Galilee, where he fought many battles with the heathen, so that the heathen were discomfited by him.

²¹

И҆ и҆́де сі́мѡнъ въ галїле́ю и҆ соста́ви бра̑ни мнѡ́ги на ꙗ҆зы́ки, и҆ сотро́шасѧ ꙗ҆зы́цы ѿ лица̀ є҆гѡ̀,

²²

And he pursued them unto the gate of Ptolemais; and there were slain of the heathen about three thousand men, whose spoils he took.

²²

и҆ погна̀ в̾слѣ́дъ и҆́хъ да́же до вра́тъ птолемаі́ды: и҆ падо́ша ѿ ꙗ҆зы̑къ ꙗ҆́кѡ трѝ ты́сѧщы мꙋже́й, и҆ взѧ̀ кѡры́сти и҆́хъ,

²³

And those that were in Galilee, and in Arbattis, with their wives and their children, and all that they had, took he away with him, and brought them into Judea with great joy.

²³

и҆ поѧ́тъ сꙋ́щихъ въ галїле́и и҆ во а҆рватті́сѣхъ съ жена́ми и҆ ча̑ды, и҆ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка бѧ́хꙋ и҆̀мъ, и҆ приведѐ во і҆ꙋде́ю съ весе́лїемъ ве́лїимъ.

²⁴

Judas Maccabeus also and his brother Jonathan went over Jordan, and travelled three days' journey in the wilderness,

²⁴

И҆ і҆ꙋ́да маккаве́й и҆ і҆ѡнаѳа́нъ бра́тъ є҆гѡ̀ преидо́ша і҆ѻрда́нъ, и҆ и҆до́ша пꙋ́ть трїе́хъ дні́й въ пꙋсты́ни,

²⁵

where they met with the Nabathites, who came unto them in a peaceable manner, and told them every thing that had happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad:

²⁵

и҆ срѣто́ша навате́євъ, и҆ прїѧ́ша и҆̀хъ ми́рнѡ, и҆ повѣ́даша и҆̀мъ всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же слꙋчи́шасѧ бра́тїи и҆́хъ въ галааді́тїдѣ,

²⁶

and how that many of them were shut up in Bosora, and Bosor, and Alema, Casphor, Maked, and Carnaim; all these cities are strong and great:

²⁶

и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ мно́зи ѿ ни́хъ заключе́ни сꙋ́ть въ восо́рѣ и҆ восо́ръ, во а҆лемі́сѣхъ, хасфѡ́рѣ, маке́дѣ и҆ карнаі́нѣ: сі́и всѝ гра́ди тве́рди и҆ вели́цы:

²⁷

and that they were shut up in the rest of the cities of the country of Galaad, and that against to morrow they had appointed to bring their host against the forts, and to take them, and to destroy them all in one day.

²⁷

и҆ въ про́чїихъ градѣ́хъ галааді́тїды сꙋ́ть затворе́ни, и҆ во оу҆́трїе стро́ѧтсѧ ѡ҆полчи́тисѧ на тверды̑ни и҆ ꙗ҆́ти и҆ и҆зби́ти всѣ́хъ си́хъ во є҆ди́нъ де́нь.

²⁸

Hereupon Judas and his host turned suddenly by the way of the wilderness unto Bosora; and when he had won the city, he slew all the males with the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burned the city with fire.

²⁸

И҆ возврати́сѧ і҆ꙋ́да и҆ вѡ́и є҆гѡ̀ въ пꙋ́ть въ пꙋсты́ню въ восо́ръ внеза́пꙋ: и҆ взѧ̀ гра́дъ, и҆ оу҆бѝ всѧ́къ мꙋ́жескъ по́лъ оу҆сты̑ меча̀, и҆ взѧ̀ всѧ̑ коры̑сти и҆́хъ, и҆ сожжѐ є҆го̀ ѻ҆гне́мъ:

²⁹

From whence he removed by night, and went till he came to the fortress.

²⁹

и҆ воста̀ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ но́щїю и҆ и҆́де да́же до тверды́ни.

³⁰

And betimes in the morning they looked up, and, behold, there was an innumerable people bearing ladders and other engines of war, to take the fortress: for they assaulted them.

³⁰

И҆ бы́сть пред̾ заре́ю, и҆ воздвиго́ша ѻ҆́чи своѝ, и҆ сѐ, лю́дїе мно́зи, и҆̀мже не бѣ̀ числа̀, несꙋ́ще лѣ̑ствицы и҆ миха̑ны взѧ́ти тверды́ню, и҆ ра́товахꙋ и҆̀хъ.

³¹

When Judas therefore saw that the battle was begun, and that the cry of the city went up to heaven, with trumpets, and a great sound,

³¹

И҆ ви́дѣ і҆ꙋ́да, ꙗ҆́кѡ нача́сѧ бра́нь, и҆ во́пль гра́да взы́де да́же до небесѐ трꙋба́ми и҆ гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ,

³²

he said unto his host, Fight this day for your brethren.

³²

и҆ речѐ мꙋжє́мъ си́лы: бі́йтесѧ дне́сь за бра́тїю ва́шꙋ.

³³

So he went forth behind them in three companies, who sounded their trumpets, and cried with prayer.

³³

И҆ и҆зы́де тремѧ̀ нача́лы созадѝ и҆́хъ: и҆ вострꙋби́ша трꙋба́ми и҆ возопи́ша въ моли́твѣ.

³⁴

Then the host of Timotheus, knowing that it was Maccabeus, fled from him: wherefore he smote them with a great slaughter; so that there were killed of them that day about eight thousand men.

³⁴

И҆ позна̀ по́лкъ тїмоѳе́овъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ маккаве́й є҆́сть, и҆ ѿбѣжа̀ ѿ лица̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ побѝ и҆̀хъ ꙗ҆́звою ве́лїею, и҆ падо́ша ѿ ни́хъ въ де́нь ѡ҆́нъ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́смь ты́сѧщъ мꙋже́й.

³⁵

This done, Judas turned aside to Maspha; and after he had assaulted it, he took it, and slew all the males therein, and received the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.

³⁵

И҆ ѡ҆брати́сѧ (і҆ꙋ́да) въ масфꙋ̀ и҆ повоева̀ ю҆̀ и҆ взѧ̀ ю҆̀, и҆ оу҆бѝ ве́сь мꙋ́жескъ по́лъ є҆ѧ̀ и҆ взѧ̀ коры̑сти є҆ѧ̀, и҆ сожжѐ ю҆̀ ѻ҆гне́мъ:

³⁶

From thence went he, and took Casphon, Maged, Bosor, and the other cities of the country of Galaad.

³⁶

ѿтꙋ́дꙋ по́йде и҆ взѧ̀ хасфѡ́ръ, маке́дъ и҆ восо́ръ и҆ про́чыѧ гра́ды галааді́тїды.

³⁷

After these things gathered Timotheus another host, and encamped against Raphon beyond the brook.

³⁷

И҆ по си́хъ словесѣ́хъ собра̀ тїмоѳе́й по́лкъ и҆́нъ и҆ ѡ҆полчи́сѧ къ лицꙋ̀ рафѡ́на ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ пото́ка.

³⁸

So Judas sent men to espy the host, who brought him word, saying, All the heathen that be round about us are assembled unto them, even a very great host.

³⁸

И҆ посла̀ і҆ꙋ́да соглѧ́дати по́лкъ. и҆ возвѣсти́ша є҆мꙋ̀ глаго́люще: со́брани сꙋ́ть къ немꙋ̀ всѝ ꙗ҆зы́цы, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ на́съ, си́ла ве́лїѧ ѕѣлѡ̀:

³⁹

He hath also hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the brook, ready to come and fight against thee. Upon this Judas went to meet them.

³⁹

и҆ а҆ра́влѧнъ наѧ́ша въ по́мощь себѣ̀, и҆ ѡ҆полча́ютсѧ ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ пото́ка, гото́ви прїитѝ на тѧ̀ на бра́нь. и҆ и҆́де і҆ꙋ́да во срѣ́тенїе и҆́хъ.

⁴⁰

Then Timotheus said unto the captains of his host, When Judas and his host come near the brook, if he pass over first unto us, we shall not be able to withstand him; for he will mightily prevail against us:

⁴⁰

И҆ речѐ тїмоѳе́й нача́лникѡмъ во́євъ свои́хъ: є҆гда̀ прибли́житсѧ і҆ꙋ́да и҆ по́лкъ є҆гѡ̀ къ пото́кꙋ водно́мꙋ, а҆́ще прїи́детъ къ на́мъ пре́жде, не мо́жемъ постоѧ́ти проти́вꙋ є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ могі́й возмо́жетъ проти́вꙋ на́съ:

⁴¹

but if he be afraid, and camp beyond the river, we shall go over unto him, and prevail against him.

⁴¹

а҆́ще же оу҆страши́тсѧ и҆ ѡ҆полчи́тсѧ ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ рѣкѝ, пре́йдемъ къ немꙋ̀ и҆ возмо́жемъ проти́вꙋ є҆гѡ̀.

⁴²

Now when Judas came near the brook, he caused the scribes of the people to remain by the brook: unto whom he gave commandment, saying, Suffer no man to remain in the camp, but let all come to the battle.

⁴²

Є҆гда́ же прибли́жисѧ і҆ꙋ́да къ пото́кꙋ водно́мꙋ, поста́ви кни́жники люді́й при пото́цѣ и҆ повелѣ̀ и҆̀мъ глаго́лѧ: не ѡ҆ставлѧ́йте всѧ́каго человѣ́ка ѡ҆ста́тисѧ въ полцѣ̀, но да грѧдꙋ́тъ всѝ на бра́нь.

⁴³

So he went first over unto them, and all the people after him: then all the heathen, being discomfited before him, cast away their weapons, and fled unto the temple that was at Carnaim.

⁴³

И҆ пре́йде на ни́хъ пре́жде, и҆ всѝ лю́дїе в̾слѣ́дъ є҆гѡ̀. и҆ сотре́ни сꙋ́ть всѝ ꙗ҆зы́цы пред̾ лице́мъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ поверго́ша ѻ҆рꙋ̑жїѧ своѧ̑, и҆ бѣжа́ша въ ка́пище, є҆́же къ карнаі́нѣ.

⁴⁴

But they took the city, and burned the temple with all that were therein. Thus was Carnaim subdued, neither could they stand any longer before Judas.

⁴⁴

И҆ взѧ́ша гра́дъ, и҆ ка́пище сожго́ша ѻ҆гне́мъ со всѣ́ми, ꙗ҆̀же въ не́мъ: и҆ побѣжде́нъ бы́сть карнаі́нъ и҆ не возмо́же ктомꙋ̀ ста́ти проти́вꙋ лица̀ і҆ꙋ́дина.

⁴⁵

Then Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the country of Galaad, from the least unto the greatest, even their wives, and their children, and their stuff, a very great host, to the end they might come into the land of Judea.

⁴⁵

И҆ собра̀ і҆ꙋ́да всѣ́хъ і҆и҃лтѧнъ, и҆̀же бѣ́хꙋ въ галааді́тїдѣ, ѿ ма́ла да́же до вели́ка, и҆ жєны̀ и҆́хъ и҆ ча̑да и҆́хъ и҆ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ, по́лкъ вели́къ ѕѣлѡ̀, прїитѝ въ зе́млю і҆ꙋ́динꙋ.

⁴⁶

Now when they came unto Ephron (this was a great city in the way as they should go, very well fortified) they could not turn from it, either on the right hand or the left, but must needs pass through the midst of it.

⁴⁶

И҆ прїидо́ша да́же до є҆фрѡ́на, и҆ се́й гра́дъ ве́лїй на вхо́дѣ тве́рдъ ѕѣлѡ̀: и҆ не бѣ̀ оу҆клони́тисѧ ѿ негѡ̀ на де́сно и҆лѝ шꙋ́ее, но то́кмѡ сквозѣ̀ є҆го̀ проитѝ.

⁴⁷

Then they of the city shut them out, and stopped up the gates with stones.

⁴⁷

И҆ заключи́шасѧ, и҆̀же бѧ́хꙋ въ гра́дѣ, и҆ загради́ша врата̀ ка́менїемъ. и҆ посла̀ къ ни̑мъ і҆ꙋ́да со словесы̀ ми́рными, глаго́лѧ:

⁴⁸

Whereupon Judas sent unto them in peaceable manner, saying, Let us pass through your land to go into our own country, and none shall do you any hurt; we will only pass through on foot: howbeit they would not open unto him.

⁴⁸

про́йдемъ по землѝ ва́шей, є҆́же ѿитѝ въ зе́млю на́шꙋ, и҆ никто́же ва́съ и҆з̾ѡби́дитъ, то́кмѡ нога́ми про́йдемъ. и҆ не восхотѣ́ша ѿве́рсти є҆мꙋ̀.

⁴⁹

Wherefore Judas commanded a proclamation to be made throughout the host, that every man should pitch his tent in the place where he was.

⁴⁹

И҆ повелѣ̀ і҆ꙋ́да проповѣ́дати въ полцѣ̀ ѡ҆полчи́тисѧ коемꙋ́ждо, въ не́мже кто̀ є҆́сть мѣ́стѣ.

⁵⁰

So the soldiers pitched, and assaulted the city all that day and all that night, till at the length the city was delivered into his hands:

⁵⁰

И҆ ѡ҆полчи́шасѧ мꙋ́жїе си́лы и҆ ра́товаша гра́дъ то́й ве́сь де́нь и҆ всю̀ но́щь. и҆ предаде́сѧ гра́дъ въ рꙋ́ки є҆гѡ̀.

⁵¹

who then slew all the males with the edge of the sword, and rased the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through the city over them that were slain.

⁵¹

И҆ побѝ всѧ́къ мꙋ́жескъ по́лъ оу҆сты̑ меча̀ и҆ и҆скоренѝ є҆го̀, и҆ взѧ̀ коры̑сти є҆гѡ̀ и҆ про́йде сквозѣ̀ гра́дъ по оу҆бїє́нымъ.

⁵²

After this went they over Jordan into the great plain before Bethsan.

⁵²

И҆ преидо́ша і҆ѻрда́нъ въ по́ле вели́кое проти́вꙋ лицꙋ̀ веѳса́на.

⁵³

And Judas gathered together those that came behind, and exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Judea.

⁵³

И҆ бѣ̀ і҆ꙋ́да собира́ѧ да́льнѣйшихъ и҆ оу҆вѣща́ваше люді́й по всемꙋ̀ пꙋтѝ, до́ндеже прїи́дꙋтъ въ зе́млю і҆ꙋ́динꙋ.

⁵⁴

So they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, where they offered burnt offerings, because not one of them was slain until they had returned in peace.

⁵⁴

И҆ взыдо́ша на го́рꙋ сїѡ́нъ съ весе́лїемъ и҆ ра́достїю и҆ принесо́ша всесожжє́нїѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не падѐ ѿ ни́хъ ни є҆ди́нъ, до́ндеже возврати́шасѧ въ ми́рѣ.

⁵⁵

Now what time as Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,

⁵⁵

И҆ во дни̑, въ нѧ́же бы́сть і҆ꙋ́да и҆ і҆ѡнаѳа́нъ въ галаа́дѣ, и҆ сі́мѡнъ бра́тъ є҆гѡ̀ въ галїле́и проти́вꙋ лицꙋ̀ птолемаі́ды,

⁵⁶

Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias, captains of the garrisons, heard of the valiant acts and warlike deeds which they had done.

⁵⁶

слы́ша і҆ѡ́сифъ заха́рїинъ сы́нъ и҆ а҆за́рїа, нача̑лницы си́лы, ѡ҆ ве́щехъ благосодѣ́ѧнныхъ и҆ ѡ҆ бра́нехъ, ꙗ҆̀же сотвори́ша,

⁵⁷

Wherefore they said, Let us also get us a name, and go fight against the heathen that are round about us.

⁵⁷

и҆ рѣ́ша: сотвори́мъ и҆ мы̀ себѣ̀ и҆́мѧ и҆ по́йдемъ ра́товати на ꙗ҆зы́ки, и҆̀же ѡ҆́крестъ на́съ.

⁵⁸

So when they had given charge unto the garrison that was with them, they went toward Jamnia.

⁵⁸

И҆ возвѣсти́ша сꙋ́щымъ ѿ си́лы ꙗ҆́же съ ни́ми и҆ и҆до́ша на і҆амні́ю.

⁵⁹

Then came Gorgias and his men out of the city to fight against them.

⁵⁹

И҆ и҆зы́де горгі́а и҆з̾ гра́да и҆ мꙋ́жїе є҆гѡ̀ во срѣ́тенїе и҆̀мъ на бра́нь.

⁶⁰

And so it was, that Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there were slain that day of the people of Israel about two thousand men.

⁶⁰

И҆ побѣжде́нъ бы́сть і҆ѡ́сифъ и҆ а҆за́рїа, и҆ гна́ни бы́ша да́же до предѣ̑лъ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ: и҆ падо́ша въ де́нь ѡ҆́нъ ѿ люді́й і҆и҃левыхъ ꙗ҆́кѡ двѣ̀ ты́сѧщы мꙋже́й. и҆ бы́сть ꙗ҆́зва вели́ка въ лю́дехъ і҆и҃левыхъ,

⁶¹

Thus was there a great overthrow among the children of Israel, because they were not obedient unto Judas and his brethren, but thought to do some valiant act.

⁶¹

поне́же не послꙋ́шаша і҆ꙋ́ды и҆ бра́тїй є҆гѡ̀, мнѧ́щесѧ хра́бри бы́ти:

⁶²

Moreover these men came not of the seed of those, by whose hand deliverance was given unto Israel.

⁶²

ті́и же не бѧ́хꙋ ѿ сѣ́мене мꙋже́й ѻ҆́нѣхъ, и҆́миже даде́сѧ спасе́нїе і҆и҃лю рꙋко́ю и҆́хъ.

⁶³

Howbeit the man Judas and his brethren were greatly renowned in the sight of all Israel, and of all the heathen, wheresoever their name was heard of:

⁶³

И҆ мꙋ́жъ і҆ꙋ́да и҆ бра́тїѧ є҆гѡ̀ просла́вишасѧ ѕѣлѡ̀ пред̾ всѣ́мъ і҆и҃лемъ и҆ ꙗ҆зы̑ки всѣ́ми, и҆дѣ́же слы́шашесѧ и҆́мѧ и҆́хъ.

⁶⁴

insomuch as the people assembled unto them with joyful acclamations.

⁶⁴

И҆ совокꙋпи́шасѧ къ ни̑мъ бла́го глаго́лющїи.

⁶⁵

Afterward went Judas forth with his brethren, and fought against the children of Esau in the land toward the south, where he smote Hebron, and the towns thereof, and pulled down the fortress of it, and burned the towers thereof round about.

⁶⁵

И҆ и҆зы́де і҆ꙋ́да и҆ бра́тїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ра́товахꙋ сынѡ́въ и҆са́ѵлихъ въ землѝ ꙗ҆́же къ ю҆́гꙋ, и҆ поразѝ хеврѡ́на и҆ дщє́ри є҆гѡ̀, и҆ разорѝ тверды̑ни є҆гѡ̀, и҆ столпы̀ є҆гѡ̀ пожжѐ ѡ҆́крестъ.

⁶⁶

From thence he removed to go into the land of the Philistines, and passed through Samaria.

⁶⁶

И҆ воздви́жесѧ и҆тѝ въ зе́млю и҆ноплеме́нникѡвъ и҆ прохожда́ше самарі́ю.

⁶⁷

At that time certain priests, desirous to shew their valour, were slain in battle, for that they went out to fight unadvisedly.

⁶⁷

Въ де́нь ѡ҆́нъ падо́ша свѧще́нницы на бра́ни, хотѧ́щїи хра́брѣе бы́ти, внегда̀ и҆зы́ти и҆̀мъ на бра́нь без̾ совѣ́та (є҆гѡ̀).

⁶⁸

So Judas turned to Azotus in the land of the Philistines, and when he had pulled down their altars, and burned their carved images with fire, and spoiled their cities, he returned into the land of Judea.

⁶⁸

И҆ оу҆клони́сѧ і҆ꙋ́да во а҆зѡ́тъ въ зе́млю и҆ноплеме́нникѡвъ, и҆ разорѝ ка̑пища и҆́хъ, и҆ и҆зваѧ̑нїѧ богѡ́въ и҆́хъ сожжѐ ѻ҆гне́мъ, и҆ взѧ̀ кѡры́сти ѿ градѡ́въ, и҆ возврати́сѧ въ зе́млю і҆ꙋ́динꙋ.
