3 And he passed through even to the ends of the earth. And he received the spoils of many nations. And the earth was silenced in his sight.
4 And he gathered together power, and an exceedingly strong army. And he was exalted, and his heart was lifted up.
5 And he captured the regions of nations and of sovereign leaders, and they became tributaries to him.
6 And after these things, he fell down on his bed, and he knew that he would die.
7 And he called his servants, nobles who were raised with him from his youth. And he divided his kingdom to them, while he was still alive.
8 And Alexander reigned twelve years, and then he died.
9 And his servants obtained his kingdom, each one in his place.
