1 Maccabees 15:10-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ In the year one hundred and seventy-four Antiochus entered into the land of his fathers, and all the forces assembled to him, so that few were left with Tryphon.

¹¹ And king Antiochus pursued after him, and he fled along by the sea coast and came to Dora.

¹² For he perceived that evils were gathered together upon him, and his troops had forsaken him.

¹³ And Antiochus camped above Dora with a hundred and twenty thousand men of war, and eight thousand horsemen:

¹⁴ And he invested the city, and the ships drew near by sea: and they annoyed the city by land, and by sea, and suffered none to come in, or to go out.
