iver him this young Antiochus,
that he might reign in his father's stead: he told him therefore
all that Demetrius had done, and how his men of war were at
enmity with him, and there he remained a long season.

1 Mac 11:41
In the mean time Jonathan sent unto king Demetrius, that he
would cast those of the tower out of Jerusalem, and those also
in the fortresses: for they fought against Israel.

1 Mac 11:42
So Demetrius sent unto Jonathan, saying, I will not only do
this for thee and thy people, but I will greatly honour thee and
thy nation, if opportunity serve.

1 Mac 11:43
Now therefore thou shalt do well, if thou send me men to help
me; for all my forces are gone from me.

1 Mac 11:44
Upon this Jonathan sent him three thousand strong men unto
Antioch: and when they came to the king, the king was very glad
