Conflicts to Come

11"And in the first year of Darius the Mede, I arose to be an encouragement and a protection for him.H259H8141H1867H4075H5977H2388H4581 2"And now I will tell you the truth. Behold, three more kings are going to arise in Persia. Then a fourth will gain far more riches than all [ of them;] as soon as he becomes strong through his riches, he will arouse the whole [empire] against the realm of Greece.H5046H571H5975H7969H4428H6539H7243H6239H6238H1419H2393H6239H5782H4438H3120 3"And a mighty king will arise, and he will rule with great authority and do as he pleases.H1368H4428H5975H4910H7227H4474H6213H7522 4"But as soon as he has arisen, his kingdom will be broken up and parceled out toward the four points of the compass, though not to his [own] descendants, nor according to his authority which he wielded; for his sovereignty will be uprooted and [given] to others besides them.H5975H4438H7665H2673H702H7307H8064H319H4915H4910H4438H5428H312 5"Then the king of the South will grow strong, along with [one] of his princes who will gain ascendancy over him and obtain dominion; his domain [will be] a great dominion [indeed].H4428H5045H2388H8269H2388H4910H4475H7227H4474 6"And after some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to carry out a peaceful arrangement. But she will not retain her position of power, nor will he remain with his power, but she will be given up, along with those who brought her in, and the one who sired her, as well as he who supported her in [those] times.H7093H8141H2266H4428H1323H5045H935H4428H6828H6213H4339H6113H3581H2220H5975H2220H5414H935H3205H2388H6256 7"But one of the descendants of her line will arise in his place, and he will come against [their] army and enter the fortress of the king of the North, and he will deal with them and display [great] strength.H5342H8328H5975H3653H935H2428H935H4581H4428H6828H6213H2388 8"And also their gods with their metal images [and] their precious vessels of silver and gold he will take into captivity to Egypt, and he on his part will refrain from [attacking] the king of the North for [some] years.H935H7628H4714H430H5257H2532H3627H3701H2091H5975H8141H4428H6828 9"Then the latter will enter the realm of the king of the South, but will return to his [own] land.H4428H5045H935H4438H7725H127 10"And his sons will mobilize and assemble a multitude of great forces; and one of them will keep on coming and overflow and pass through, that he may again wage war up to his [very] fortress.H1121H1624H622H1995H7227H2428H935H935H7857H5674H7725H1624H4581 11"And the king of the South will be enraged and go forth and fight with the king of the North. Then the latter will raise a great multitude, but [that] multitude will be given into the hand of the [former].H4428H5045H4843H3318H3898H4428H6828H5975H7227H1995H1995H5414H3027 12"When the multitude is carried away, his heart will be lifted up, and he will cause tens of thousands to fall; yet he will not prevail.H5375H1995H3824H7311H7311H5307H7239H5810 13"For the king of the North will again raise a greater multitude than the former, and after an interval of some years he will press on with a great army and much equipment.H4428H6828H7725H5975H1995H7227H7223H935H935H7093H6256H8141H1419H2428H7227H7399 14"Now in those times many will rise up against the king of the South; the violent ones among your people will also lift themselves up in order to fulfill the vision, but they will fall down.H6256H7227H5975H4428H5045H1121H6530H5971H5375H5975H2377H3782 15"Then the king of the North will come, cast up a siege mound, and capture a well-fortified city; and the forces of the South will not stand [their ground,] not even their choicest troops, for there will be no strength to make a stand.H4428H6828H935H8210H5550H3920H4013H5892H2220H5045H5975H4005H5971H3581H5975 16"But he who comes against him will do as he pleases, and no one will [be able to] withstand him; he will also stay [for a time] in the Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand.H935H6213H7522H5975H6440H5975H6643H776H3027H3617 17"And he will set his face to come with the power of his whole kingdom, bringing with him a proposal of peace which he will put into effect; he will also give him the daughter of women to ruin it. But she will not take a stand [for him] or be on his side.H7760H6440H935H8633H4438H3477H6213H5414H1323H802H7843H5975 18"Then he will turn his face to the coastlands and capture many. But a commander will put a stop to his scorn against him; moreover, he will repay him for his scorn.H7760H7725H6440H339H3920H7227H7101H2781H7673H1115H2781H7725 19"So he will turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall and be found no more.H7725H6440H4581H776H3782H5307H4672 20"Then in his place one will arise who will send an oppressor through the Jewel of [his] kingdom; yet within a few days he will be shattered, though neither in anger nor in battle.H5975H3653H5674H5065H1925H4438H259H3117H7665H639H4421 21"And in his place a despicable person will arise, on whom the honor of kingship has not been conferred, but he will come in a time of tranquility and seize the kingdom by intrigue.H3653H5975H959H5414H1935H4438H935H7962H2388H4438H2519 22"And the overflowing forces will be flooded away before him and shattered, and also the prince of the covenant.H2220H7858H7857H6440H7665H5057H1285 23"And after an alliance is made with him he will practice deception, and he will go up and gain power with a small [force of] people.H2266H6213H4820H5927H6105H4592H1471 24"In a time of tranquility he will enter the richest [parts] of the realm, and he will accomplish what his fathers never did, nor his ancestors; he will distribute plunder, booty, and possessions among them, and he will devise his schemes against strongholds, but [only] for a time.H935H7962H4924H4082H6213H1H6213H1H1H967H961H7998H7399H2803H4284H4013H6256 25"And he will stir up his strength and courage against the king of the South with a large army; so the king of the South will mobilize an extremely large and mighty army for war; but he will not stand, for schemes will be devised against him.H5782H3581H3824H4428H5045H1419H2428H4428H5045H1624H4421H3966H1419H6099H2428H5975H2803H4284 26"And those who eat his choice food will destroy him, and his army will overflow, but many will fall down slain.H398H6598H7665H2428H7857H7227H5307H2491 27"As for both kings, their hearts will be [intent] on evil, and they will speak lies [to each other] at the same table; but it will not succeed, for the end is still [to come] at the appointed time.H8147H4428H3824H4827H7451H1696H3577H259H7979H6743H7093H4150 28"Then he will return to his land with much plunder; but his heart will be [set] against the holy covenant, and he will take action and [then] return to his [own] land.H7725H776H1419H7399H3824H6944H1285H6213H7725H776 29"At the appointed time he will return and come into the South, but this last time it will not turn out the way it did before.H4150H7725H935H5045H7223H314 30"For ships of Kittim will come against him; therefore he will be disheartened, and will return and become enraged at the holy covenant and take action; so he will come back and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant.H6716H3794H935H3512H7725H2194H6944H1285H6213H7725H995H5800H6944H1285 31"And forces from him will arise, desecrate the sanctuary fortress, and do away with the regular sacrifice. And they will set up the abomination of desolation.H2220H5975H2490H4720H4581H5493H8548H5414H8251H8074 32"And by smooth [words] he will turn to godlessness those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but the people who know their God will display strength and take action.H7561H1285H2610H2514H5971H3045H430H2388H6213 33"And those who have insight among the people will give understanding to the many; yet they will fall by sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder, for [many] days.H7919H5971H995H7227H3782H2719H3852H7628H961H3117 34"Now when they fall they will be granted a little help, and many will join with them in hypocrisy.H3782H5826H4592H5828H7227H3867H2519 35"And some of those who have insight will fall, in order to refine, purge, and make them pure, until the end time; because [it is] still [to come] at the appointed time.H7919H3782H6884H1305H3835H6256H7093H4150 36"Then the king will do as he pleases, and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and will speak monstrous things against the God of gods; and he will prosper until the indignation is finished, for that which is decreed will be done.H4428H6213H7522H7311H1431H410H1696H6381H410H410H6743H2195H3615H2782H6213 37"And he will show no regard for the gods of his fathers or for the desire of women, nor will he show regard for any [other] god; for he will magnify himself above [them] all.H995H430H1H2532H802H995H433H1431 38"But instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor [him] with gold, silver, costly stones, and treasures.H3653H3513H433H4581H433H1H3045H3513H2091H3701H3368H68H2532 39"And he will take action against the strongest of fortresses with [ the help of] a foreign god; he will give great honor to those who acknowledge [him,] and he will cause them to rule over the many, and will parcel out land for a price.H6213H4581H4013H5236H433H5234H5234H7235H3519H4910H7227H2505H127H4242 40"And at the end time the king of the South will collide with him, and the king of the North will storm against him with chariots, with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter countries, overflow [them,] and pass through.H6256H7093H4428H5045H5055H4428H6828H8175H7393H6571H7227H591H935H776H7857H5674 41"He will also enter the Beautiful Land, and many [countries] will fall; but these will be rescued out of his hand: Edom, Moab and the foremost of the sons of Ammon.H935H6643H776H7227H3782H4422H3027H123H4124H7225H1121H5983 42"Then he will stretch out his hand against [other] countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape.H7971H3027H776H776H4714H6413 43"But he will gain control over the hidden treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and Libyans and Ethiopians [will follow] at his heels.H4910H4362H2091H3701H2532H4714H3864H3569H4703 44"But rumors from the East and from the North will disturb him, and he will go forth with great wrath to destroy and annihilate many.H8052H4217H6828H926H3318H1419H2534H8045H2763H7227 45"And he will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.H5193H168H643H3220H6643H6944H2022H935H7093H5826
