1 Maccabees 3:20-24 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

20. With great presumption and lawlessness they come against us to destroy us and our wives and children and to despoil us;

21. but we are fighting for our lives and our laws.

22. He will crush them before us; so do not fear them.”

23. When he finished speaking, he rushed suddenly upon Seron and his army, who were crushed before him.

24. He pursued Seron down the descent of Beth-horon into the plain. About eight hundred of their men fell, and the rest fled to the land of the Philistines.
