15 and they crushed the Syrians' right wing. They pursued them as far as the foothills.
16 But when the Syrians on the left wing saw that their right wing had been crushed, they turned to attack Judas and his men from the rear.
17 The fighting became very fierce, and many on both sides were killed.
18 Finally Judas himself was killed. Then all his family fled.
19 Jonathan and Simon took their brother's body and buried it in the family tomb at Modein,
20 and there at the tomb they wept for him. All Israel mourned for him in great sorrow for many days. They said,
21 “It can't be true! The mighty hero and saviour of Israel has been killed!”
