Open translation for this passage
Λαμψακηνῶν τὰ βασιλέως τοῦ Περσῶν φρονησάντων ἢ καὶ αἰτίαν φρονῆσαι λαβόντων, ὁ Ἀλέξανδρος ἅτε ὑπερζέων ἐς αὐτοὺς τῇ ὀργῇ κακῶν ἠπείλει τὰ μέγιστα ἐργάσασθαι·
Genitive absolute at the opening: the Lampsacenes are understood as having adopted Persian sympathies or having taken a reason to do so; ἅτε with the causal participle ὑπερζέων explains Alexander's anger, and ἠπείλει governs the infinitive ἐργάσασθαι with τὰ μέγιστα as an accusative of extent/result.
