2 Maccabees 12:7 CPDV

⁵  When Judas learned of the cruelty done to the men of his nation, he informed the men who were with him, and, having called upon God, the Just Judge,

⁶  he went against the executors of his brothers, and he even set the port on fire in the night; he burned the boats, but those who took refuge from the fire, he destroyed with the sword.

⁷  And when he had done these things in this way, he departed, as if he would return again to eradicate all those of Joppa.

⁸  But when he also realized those who were of Jamnia wanted to act in a similar way to the Jews living among them,

⁹  he went against those of Jamnia also by night, and he set the port on fire, along with the ships, so much so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem, two hundred and forty stadia away.
