Good News Translation

³² He appointed Lysias, an important man who had been granted the title
    Relative of the King, as governor to take care of the king's affairs in the whole territory between the Euphrates River and the Egyptian border. ³³ The king also made Lysias the guardian of his son Antiochus the Fifth until his own return. ³⁴ He put Lysias in charge of all the elephants and of half his army, and then gave him detailed instructions about what he wanted done, and in particular, what he wanted done with the inhabitants of Judea and Jerusalem.
