1 Maccabees 11:51 Context
49So when they of the city saw, that the Iewes had got the city as they would, their courage was abated, wherefore they made supplication to the king, and cried, saying: 50Graunt vs peace, and let the Iewes cease from assaulting vs and the citie. 51With that they cast away their weapons, and made peace, and the Iewes were honoured in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realme, and they returned to Ierusalem hauing great spoiles. 52So king Demetrius sate on the throne of his kingdome, and the land was quiet before him. 53Neuerthelesse hee dissembled in all that euer hee spake, and estranged himselfe from Ionathan, neither rewarded he him, according to the benefits which hee had receiued of him, but troubled him very sore.
