6And calling vpon God the righteous iudge, he came against those murtherers of his brethren, & burnt the hauen by night, and set the boats on fire, and those that fled thither, he slew. 7And when the towne was shut vp, he went backward, as if he would returne to root out all them of the citie of Ioppe. 8But when he heard that þe Iamnites were minded to doe in like maner vnto the Iewes þt dwelt among them, 9He came vpon the Iamnites also by night, and set fire on the hauen, & the nauy, so that the light of the fire was seene at Ierusalem, two hundred and fortie furlongs off. 10Now when they were gone from thence nine furlongs in their iourney toward Timotheus, no fewer then fiue thousand men on foote, & fiue hundred horse men of the Arabians, set vpon him.
