1 Maccabees 2:31 Context
29Then many that sought after iustice and iudgement, went downe into the wildernesse to dwell there. 30Both they and their children, and their wiues, and their cattell, because afflictions increased sore vpon them. 31Now when it was told the kings seruants, and the hoste that was at Ierusalem, in the citie of Dauid, that certaine men, who had broken the kings commandement, were gone downe into the secret places in the wildernesse. 32They pursued after them, a great number, and hauing ouertaken them, they camped against them, and made war against them on the Sabbath day. 33And they said vnto them, Let that which you haue done hitherto, suffice: Come foorth, and doe according to the commandement of the king, and you shall liue.
