48Then gathered king Alexander great forces, and camped over against Demetrius. 49And after the two kings had joined battle, Demetrius' host fled: but Alexander followed after him, and prevailed against them. 50And he continued the battle very sore until the sun went down: and that day was Demetrius slain. 51Afterward Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt with a message to this effect: 52Forasmuch as I am come again to my realm, and am set in the throne of my progenitors, and have gotten the dominion, and overthrown Demetrius, and recovered our country; 53For after I had joined battle with him, both he and his host was discomfited by us, so that we sit in the throne of his kingdom: 54Now therefore let us make a league of amity together, and give me now thy daughter to wife: and I will be thy son in law, and will give both thee and her as according to thy dignity.
