28 And, in the following year, Lysias gathered together sixty thousand chosen men and five thousand horsemen, so that he might defeat them in warfare.
29 And they came into Judea, and they positioned their camp in Bethzur, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.
30 And they saw the strength of the army, and so he prayed, and he said: "Blessed are you, Savior of Israel, who crushed the assault of the powerful by the hand of your servant David, and who delivered up the camp of the foreigners into the hand of Jonathan, the son of Saul, and his armor bearer.
31 Enclose this army in the hand of your people Israel, and let them be confounded in their soldiers and their horsemen.
32 Strike them with dread, and melt away the boldness of their strength, and let them shudder in their grief.
33 Cast them down with the sword of those who love you, and let all who know your name praise you with hymns."
34 And they went forth to battle, and there fell from the army of Lysias five thousand men.
