2 Maccabees 8:30-32

Common English Bible

³⁰ In close combat with the supporters of Timothy and Bacchides, they killed more than twenty thousand men and easily took control over some high fortresses. The war spoils that they took they divided equally between themselves and those suffering torture: the orphans, the widows, and also the elderly. ³¹ They carefully placed the captured armor all together in strategic places, but the rest of the spoils they carried into Jerusalem. ³² They killed the commander of Timothy’s troops, a most ungodly man who had caused grief to many Jews.
