42Now when Tryphon saw Jonathan came with so great a force, he durst not stretch his hand against him; 43But received him honourably, and commended him unto all his friends, and gave him gifts, and commanded his men of war to be as obedient unto him, as to himself. 44Unto Jonathan also he said, Why hast thou brought all this people to so great trouble, seeing there is no war betwixt us? 45Therefore send them now home again, and choose a few men to wait on thee, and come thou with me to Ptolemais, for I will give it thee, and the rest of the strong holds and forces, and all that have any charge: as for me, I will return and depart: for this is the cause of my coming. 46So Jonathan believing him did as he bade him, and sent away his host, who went into the land of Judea. 47And with himself he retained but three thousand men, of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him. 48Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates and took him, and all them that came with him they slew with the sword.
