1 Maccabees 11:8-10

Common English Bible

⁸ So King Ptolemy gained control of the coastal cities as far as Seleucia by the sea. He kept devising evil plans against Alexander. ⁹ He sent envoys to King Demetrius to say, “Come, let’s make an agreement with each other. I’ll give you my daughter to marry, Alexander’s wife. Then you will rule over your father’s kingdom. ¹⁰ I now regret having given him my daughter since he tried to kill me.”
