1 Maccabees 10:59-61

Good News Translation

⁵⁹ King Alexander wrote asking Jonathan to come to meet him. ⁶⁰ So Jonathan, in a show of splendor, went to Ptolemais and met the two kings. He presented them with gifts of silver and gold, and he also gave many gifts to the high officials who had accompanied them. Everyone was favorably impressed with him. ⁶¹ At the same time some traitorous Jews who wanted to make trouble for Jonathan made accusations against him, but King Alexander paid no attention to them.
