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!”
22 The other deeds of Judas, his battles, his courageous acts, and his great achievements, were too many to write down.
23 After the death of Judas, the lawless traitors began to reappear everywhere in Judea, and all the wicked people returned.
