2 Maccabees 8:24 Context
21Thus when he had made them bold with these words, and ready to die for the law and the country, he divided his army into four parts; 22And joined with himself his own brethren, leaders of each band, to wit Simon, and Joseph, and Jonathan, giving each one fifteen hundred men. 23Also he appointed Eleazar to read the holy book: and when he had given them this watchword, The help of God; himself leading the first band, 24And by the help of the Almighty they slew above nine thousand of their enemies, and wounded and maimed the most part of Nicanor's host, and so put all to flight; 25And took their money that came to buy them, and pursued them far: but lacking time they returned: 26For it was the day before the sabbath, and therefore they would no longer pursue them. 27So when they had gathered their armour together, and spoiled their enemies, they occupied themselves about the sabbath, yielding exceeding praise and thanks to the Lord, who had preserved them unto that day, which was the beginning of mercy distilling upon them.
