15Then Maccabeus consented to all that Lysias desired, being carefull of the common good; and whatsoeuer Maccabeus wrote vnto Lysias concerning the Iewes, the king granted it. 16For there were letters written vnto the Iewes from Lysias, to this effect: Lysias vnto the people of the Iewes, sendeth greeting. 17Iohn and Absalon, who were sent from you, deliuered me the petition subscribed, and made request for the performance of the contents thereof. 18Therefore what things soeuer were meet to be reported to the king, I haue declared them, and he hath granted as much as might be. 19If then you wil keepe your selues loyall to the state, hereafter also will I endeuour to be a meanes of your good.
