1 Maccabees 11:9 In-Context

7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river called Eleutherus; then he returned to Jerusalem.

8 So King Ptolemy gained control of the coastal cities as far as Seleucia by the sea, and he kept devising evil designs against Alexander.

9 He sent envoys to Demetrius the king, saying, "Come, let us make a covenant with each other, and I will give you in marriage my daughter who was Alexander's wife, and you shall reign over your father's kingdom.

10 For I now regret that I gave him my daughter, for he has tried to kill me."

11 He threw blame on Alexander because he coveted his kingdom.
