1 Maccabees 5:32-34

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³² and he said to the men of his forces, “Fight today for your kindred!” ³³ Then he came up behind them in three companies, who sounded their trumpets and cried aloud in prayer. ³⁴ And when the army of Timothy realized that it was Maccabeus, they fled before him, and he dealt them a heavy blow. As many as eight thousand of them fell that day.
