1 Maccabees 10:47

καὶ εὐδόκησαν ἐν Ἀλεξάνδρῳ, ὅτι αὐτὸς ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς ἀρχηγὸς λόγων εἰρηνικῶν, καὶ συνεμάχουν αὐτῷ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
King James Version (KJV)

But with Alexander they were well pleased, because he was the first that entreated of true peace with them, and they were confederate with him always.

Modern English

They were pleased with Alexander instead, since he was the first to offer them genuine peace, and they remained his allies from then on.
