7 Jerusalem and the Temple shall be free of taxation. All the weapons that you have manufactured and the defences you have built and now occupy shall remain yours.
8 In addition, all debts now owed to the royal treasury, or which may in the future fall due, are permanently cancelled.
9 As soon as I have regained control of my kingdom, I will confer upon you, your nation, and the Temple such great honours that the glory of your country will be evident to the whole world.”
10 In the year 174 Antiochus invaded the land of his ancestors. Most of the soldiers came over to his side, so that there were very few left with Trypho.
11 Trypho, pursued by Antiochus, fled to the coastal city of Dor,
12 realizing that he was in a desperate situation, now that all his troops had deserted him.
13 Then Antiochus laid siege to Dor with 120,000 well-trained soldiers and 8,000 cavalry.
