1 Maccabees 7:6-8
Revised Standard Version
6 And they brought to the king this accusation against the people: “Judas and his brothers have destroyed all your friends, and have driven us out of our land. 7 Now then send a man whom you trust; let him go and see all the ruin which Judas[a] has brought upon us and upon the land of the king, and let him punish them and all who help them.”
8 So the king chose Bac′chides, one of the king’s friends, governor of the province Beyond the River; he was a great man in the kingdom and was faithful to the king.
