1 Maccabees 10:59-61

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵⁹ And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.

⁶⁰ And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.

⁶¹ And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.
