1 Maccabees 6:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ So king Antiochus died there in the year one hundred and forty-nine.

¹⁷ And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus his son to reign, whom he brought up young: and he called his name Eupator.

¹⁸ Now they that were in the castle, had shut up the Israelites round about the holy places: and they were continually seeking their hurt, and to strengthen the Gentiles.
