3Moreover Demetrius sent letters unto Jonathan with loving words, so as he magnified him. 4For said he, Let us first make peace with him, before he join with Alexander against us: 5Else he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brethren and his people. 6Wherefore he gave him authority to gather together an host, and to provide weapons, that he might aid him in battle: he commanded also that the hostages that were in the tower should be delivered him. 7Then came Jonathan to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the audience of all the people, and of them that were in the tower: 8Who were sore afraid, when they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an host. 9Whereupon they of the tower delivered their hostages unto Jonathan, and he delivered them unto their parents.
