1 Maccabees 8:5-7
Common English Bible
5 They crushed in battle and conquered Philip and King Perseus of the Macedonians,[a] as well as others who rose up against them. 6 They also defeated Antiochus the Great, king of Asia, who went to fight against them with one hundred twenty elephants, with cavalry, chariots, and a very large army. They crushed him, 7 but they took him alive. They declared that he, and those who succeeded him, should pay a heavy fine and turn over hostages as well as some of their best territories.
