1 Maccabees 11:42
41. In the mean time Jonathan sent unto king Demetrius, that he would cast those of the tower out of Jerusalem, and those also in the fortresses: for they fought against Israel.42. So Demetrius sent unto Jonathan, saying, I will not only do this for thee and thy people, but I will greatly honour thee and thy nation, if opportunity serve.43. Now therefore thou shalt do well, if thou send me men to help me; for all my forces are gone from me.
