1 Maccabees 3:18–23

The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English VersionOther versions

18Unto whom Judas answered, rIt is no hard matter for many to be sshut up in the hands of a few; and with tthe God of heaven it is all one, rto deliver with a great multitude, or a small company: 19for the victory of battle standeth not in the multitude of a host; but strength cometh from heaven. 20They come against us in much pride and iniquity to destroy us, and our wives and children, and to spoil us: 21but we fight for our lives and our laws. 22Wherefore the Lord himself will overthrow them before our face: and as for you, be ye not afraid of them. 23Now as soon as he had left off speaking, he leapt suddenly upon them, and so Seron and his dhost was overthrown before him.
