31And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas near Capharsalama.
32And there fell of Nicanor’s army almost five thousand men, and they fled into the city of David.
33And after this Nicanor went up into mount Sion: and some of the priests and the people came out to salute him peaceably, and to shew him the holocausts that were offered for the king.
34But he mocked them and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly,
35And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage.
