61 For they did not listen to Judas and his brothers, supposing that they should act boldly.
62 But these were not of the offspring of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.
63 And the men of Judah were magnified greatly in the sight of all Israel and of all the nations where their name was heard.
64 And the people gathered to them with favorable acclamations.
65 And so Judas and his brothers went out and assailed the sons of Esau, in the land that is toward the south, and he struck Hebron and her sister cities, and he burned its walls and the towers all around it with fire.
66 And he moved his camp to go into the land of the foreigners, and he traveled through Samaria.
67 In that day, some priests fell in battle. Since they desired to act boldly, they went out, without counsel, into the battle.
