17 And Judas said to Simon his brother, Choose you out men, and go and deliver your brethren that are in Galilee, but I and Jonathan my brother will go into the land of Gilead.
18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias, as leaders of the people, with the remnant of the host, in Judaea, for to keep it.
19 And he gave commandment to them, saying, Take you⌃ the charge of this people, and fight no battle with the Gentiles until that we come again.
20 And to Simon were divided three thousand men to go into Galilee, but to Judas eight thousand men to go into the land of Gilead.
21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the Gentiles, and the Gentiles were discomfited before him.
22 And he pursued them to the gate of Ptolemais; and there fell of the Gentiles about three thousand men, and he took their spoils.
23 And they took to them those that were in Galilee, and in Arbatta, with their wives and their children, and all that they had, and brought them into Judaea with great gladness.
