Αριστόβουλος δὲ ἐνέδρᾳ τὸ πολὺ τῆς στρατιᾶς διαφθαρῆναι λέγει, τῶν Σκυθῶν ἐν παραδείσῳ κρυφθέντων, οἳ ἐκ τοῦ ἀφανοῦς ἐπεγένοντο τοῖς Μακεδόσιν ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ ἔργῳ· ἵνα τὸν μὲν Φαρνούχην παραχωρεῖν τῆς ἡγεμονίας τοῖς ξυμπεμφθεῖσι Μακεδόσιν, ὡς οὐκ ἐμπείρως ἔχοντα ἔργων πολεμικῶν, ἀλλʼ ἐπὶ τῷ καθομιλῆσαι τοὺς βαρβάρους μᾶλλόν τι πρὸς Ἀλεξάνδρου ἢ ἐπὶ τῷ ἐν ταῖς μάχαις ἐξηγεῖσθαι ἐσταλμένον, τοὺς δὲ Μακεδόνας τε εἶναι καὶ ἑταίρους βασιλέως.
