4Rose up against him in battle: so he fled, and departed thence with great heaviness, and returned to Babylon. 5Moreover there came one who brought him tidings into Persia, that the armies, which went against the land of Judea, were put to flight: 6And that Lysias, who went forth first with a great power was driven away of the Jews; and that they were made strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten of the armies, whom they had destroyed: 7Also that they had pulled down the abomination, which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls, as before, and his city Bethsura. 8Now when the king heard these words, he was astonished and sore moved: whereupon he laid him down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not befallen him as he looked for. 9And there he continued many days: for his grief was ever more and more, and he made account that he should die. 10Wherefore he called for all his friends, and said unto them, The sleep is gone from mine eyes, and my heart faileth for very care.
