1 Maccabees 1:34–36

³⁴And they put therein a sinful nation, wicked men, and fortified themselves therein. ³⁵They stored it also with armour and victuals, and when they had gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem, they laid them up there, and so they became a sore snare: ³⁶For it was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil adversary to Israel.
