8
And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.
9
And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.
10
For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.
11
And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.
12
And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.
13
And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.
14
Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.
15
And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.
16
And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.
17
And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.
18
And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp.
