καὶ ὑπεδέξατο αὐτοὺς ὁ τοῦ Ἀβούβου εἰς τὸ ὀχυρωμάτιον τὸ καλούμενον Δὼκ μετὰ δόλου, ὃ ᾠκοδόμησεν, καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτοῖς πότον μέγαν· καὶ ἐνέκρυψεν ἐκεῖ ἄνδρας.
καὶ ὅτε ἐμεθύσθη Σίμων καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ, ἐξανέστη Πτολεμαῖος καὶ οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλάβοσαν τὰ ὅπλα αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπεισήλθοσαν τῷ Σίμωνι εἰς τὸ συμπόσιον, καὶ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καί τινας τῶν παιδαρίων αὐτοῦ.
καὶ ἐποίησεν ἀθείαν μεγάλην, καὶ ἀνταπέδωκεν κακὰ ἀντὶ ἀγαθῶν.
καὶ ἔγραψεν ταῦτα Πτολεμαῖος. καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τῷ βασιλεῖ ὅπως ἀποστείλῃ αὐτῷ δυνάμεις εἰς βοήθειαν, καὶ παραδῷ τὴν Χώραν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς πόλεις.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἑτέρους εἰς Γάζαρα ἆραι τὸν Ἰωάννην, καὶ τοῖς χιλιάρχοις ἀπέστειλεν ἐπιστολὰς παραγενέσθαι πρὸς αὐτόν, ὅπως δῷ αὐτοῖς ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον καὶ δόματα.
