1 Maccabees 1:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms.

¹⁸ And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships:

¹⁹ And he made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt, but Ptolemee was afraid at his presence, and fled, and many were wounded unto death.
