And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody. 13But Simon pitched in Addus, over against the plain. 14And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother, Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him, 15Saying: We have detained thy brother, Jonathan, for the money that he owed in the king's account, by reason of the affairs which he had the management of. 16But now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him. 17Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him; nevertheless, he ordered the money and the children to be sent, lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said: 18Because he sent not the money and the children therefore is he lost. 19So he sent the children and the hundred talents and he lied, and did not let Jonathan go. 20And after this, Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went. 21And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals. 22And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night; but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad. 23And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there. 24And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.
