35 And Jonathan returned, and he called together the elders of the people, and he decided with them to build fortresses in Judea,
36 and to build up the walls in Jerusalem, and to raise a great height between the stronghold and the city, in order to separate it from the city, so that it would stand alone and would have neither buying, nor selling there.
37 And they came together to build up the city. And the wall that was over the brook, toward the rising of the sun, was fallen. And he repaired that which is called Chaphenatha.
38 And Simon rebuilt Adida in Shephelah, and he fortified it, and he set up gates and bars.
39 And so, when Trypho had decided to reign over Asia, and to assume the diadem, and to extend his hand against king Antiochus,
40 he was afraid, lest Jonathan might not permit him, but might fight against him. So he sought to seize him and to kill him. And he rose up and went to Bethshan.
41 And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and he came to Bethshan.
