(A psalm. Of David.) Listen, Lord, to my prayer; give my plea a hearing, as thou art ever faithful; listen, thou who lovest the right. (Psalms 142, 1)
the God to whom kings must look for victory, the God who has brought his servant David rescue. (Psalms 143, 10)
And as for David’s Keep, they enclosed it with high, strong walls, and strong towers besides, to serve them for a fortress; (1 Maccabees 1, 35)
But news of it reached Jerusalem, and the king’s men that were in David’s Keep; here were rebels lurking in the waste country, and drawing many over to their side. (1 Maccabees 2, 31)
David, for the tender heart of him, left a dynasty that fails not; (1 Maccabees 2, 57)
Nay, said Judas, nothing forbids great numbers should be at the mercy of small; what matter makes it to the God of heaven, few be his soldiers or many when he grants deliverance? (1 Maccabees 3, 18)
At the sight of their great numbers, this was Judas’ prayer: Blessed art thou, Saviour of Israel, who didst make use of thy servant David, a giant’s onset to overthrow! Victory thou didst give, over an invading army, to Saul’s son Jonathan and the squire that bore him company! (1 Maccabees 4, 30)
What should he do? Here were his troops fled in disorder, here was Judas in command of brave men, that would as soon have an honourable death as life itself. Back he went to Antioch, and there levied soldiers for a greater expedition yet against Judaea. (1 Maccabees 4, 35)
and so divided here and there among the troops. A thousand foot-soldiers were assigned to each, in coat of mail and helmet of bronze; with each went five hundred picked horsemen; (1 Maccabees 6, 35)
But Judas and his men closed with them, and gave battle; and of the king’s soldiers, there were six hundred that fell. (1 Maccabees 6, 42)
and his army, routed with a loss of five thousand men, must needs take refuge in the Keep of David.✻ (1 Maccabees 7, 32)
And never a town king Ptolemy entered, but he left a guard of soldiers there. (1 Maccabees 11, 3)
