1 Maccabees 16:13

13 Therefore his heart being lifted up, he thought to get the country for himself, and thereupon consulted deceitfully against Simon and his sons to destroy them.

1 Maccabees 16:13 In-Context

11 Moreover on the plain of Jericho was Ptolemy the son of Abubus made captain, and he had abundance of silver and gold;
12 for he was the high priest's son-in-law.
13 Therefore his heart being lifted up, he thought to get the country for himself, and thereupon consulted deceitfully against Simon and his sons to destroy them.
14 Now Simon was visiting the cities that were in the country, and taking care for the ministration of them. At that time he came down himself to Jericho with his sons, Mattathias and Judas, in the hundred threescore and seventeenth year, in the eleventh month, called Shebat,
15 where the son of Abubus, receiving them deceitfully into a little stronghold called Dok, which he had built, made them a great banquet; however he had men hidden there.
