And when a strong fight occurred, and, by the help of God, it ceased favorably, the remainder of the Arabians who were overcome petitioned Judas to give them a pledge, promising to give him pastures and to assist him in other things in the future. (2 Maccabees 12, 11)
Then Judas, thinking that they truly might be useful in many ways, promised peace. And after receiving the pledge of his right hand, they withdrew to their tents. (2 Maccabees 12, 12)
In truth, those who were inside, trusting in the strength of the walls and in the preparations of rations, acted irresponsibly, and they challenged Judas with evil words and blaspheming, as well as by speaking what is not lawful. (2 Maccabees 12, 14)

But when Timothy learned of the arrival of Judas, he sent ahead the women, and the children, and the remainder of the preparations, into a fortress, which is called Carnion. For it was impregnable and difficult to access because of the narrowness of the places. (2 Maccabees 12, 21)
And when the first cohort of Judas had appeared, the enemies were struck with fear by the presence of God, who beholds all things, and they were turned to flight, one over another, to such an extent that they were being knocked over by one another and were being wounded with the strokes of their own swords. (2 Maccabees 12, 22)
But Judas pursued them vehemently, punishing the profane and striking down thirty thousand of their men. (2 Maccabees 12, 23)
Then Judas departed to Carnion, where he slew twenty-five thousand. (2 Maccabees 12, 26)
