11As for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood up to support and strengthen him.H259H8141H1867H4075H5977H2388H4581 2"Now I will announce the truth to you. Three more kings shall arise in Persia. The fourth shall be far richer than all of them, and when he has become strong through his riches, he shall stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.H5046H571H5975H7969H4428H6539H7243H6239H6238H1419H2393H6239H5782H4438H3120 3Then a warrior king shall arise, who shall rule with great dominion and take action as he pleases.H1368H4428H5975H4910H7227H4474H6213H7522 4And while still rising in power, his kingdom shall be broken and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to the dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted and go to others besides these.H5975H4438H7665H2673H702H7307H8064H319H4915H4910H4438H5428H312 5"Then the king of the south shall grow strong, but one of his officers shall grow stronger than he and shall rule a realm greater than his own realm.H4428H5045H2388H8269H2388H4910H4475H7227H4474 6After some years they shall make an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to ratify the agreement. But she shall not retain her power, and his offspring shall not endure. She shall be given up, she and her attendants and her child and the one who supported her. "In those timesH7093H8141H2266H4428H1323H5045H935H4428H6828H6213H4339H6113H3581H2220H5975H2220H5414H935H3205H2388H6256 7a branch from her roots shall rise up in his place. He shall come against the army and enter the fortress of the king of the north, and he shall take action against them and prevail.H5342H8328H5975H3653H935H2428H935H4581H4428H6828H6213H2388 8Even their gods, with their idols and with their precious vessels of silver and gold, he shall carry off to Egypt as spoils of war. For some years he shall refrain from attacking the king of the north;H935H7628H4714H430H5257H2532H3627H3701H2091H5975H8141H4428H6828 9then the latter shall invade the realm of the king of the south, but will return to his own land.H4428H5045H935H4438H7725H127 10"His sons shall wage war and assemble a multitude of great forces, which shall advance like a flood and pass through, and again shall carry the war as far as his fortress.H1121H1624H622H1995H7227H2428H935H935H7857H5674H7725H1624H4581 11Moved with rage, the king of the south shall go out and do battle against the king of the north, who shall muster a great multitude, which shall, however, be defeated by his enemy.H4428H5045H4843H3318H3898H4428H6828H5975H7227H1995H1995H5414H3027 12When the multitude has been carried off, his heart shall be exalted, and he shall overthrow tens of thousands, but he shall not prevail.H5375H1995H3824H7311H7311H5307H7239H5810 13For the king of the north shall again raise a multitude, larger than the former, and after some years he shall advance with a great army and abundant supplies.H4428H6828H7725H5975H1995H7227H7223H935H935H7093H6256H8141H1419H2428H7227H7399 14"In those times many shall rise against the king of the south. The lawless among your own people shall lift themselves up in order to fulfill the vision, but they shall fail.H6256H7227H5975H4428H5045H1121H6530H5971H5375H5975H2377H3782 15Then the king of the north shall come and throw up siegeworks, and take a well-fortified city. And the forces of the south shall not stand, not even his picked troops, for there shall be no strength to resist.H4428H6828H935H8210H5550H3920H4013H5892H2220H5045H5975H4005H5971H3581H5975 16But he who comes against him shall take the actions he pleases, and no one shall withstand him. He shall take a position in the beautiful land, and all of it shall be in his power.H935H6213H7522H5975H6440H5975H6643H776H3027H3617 17He shall set his mind to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and he shall bring terms of peace and perform them. In order to destroy the kingdom, he shall give him a woman in marriage; but it shall not succeed or be to his advantage.H7760H6440H935H8633H4438H3477H6213H5414H1323H802H7843H5975 18Afterward he shall turn to the coastlands, and shall capture many. But a commander shall put an end to his insolence; indeed, he shall turn his insolence back upon him.H7760H7725H6440H339H3920H7227H7101H2781H7673H1115H2781H7725 19Then he shall turn back toward the fortresses of his own land, but he shall stumble and fall, and shall not be found.H7725H6440H4581H776H3782H5307H4672 20"Then shall arise in his place one who shall send an official for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he shall be broken, though not in anger or in battle.H5975H3653H5674H5065H1925H4438H259H3117H7665H639H4421 21In his place shall arise a contemptible person on whom royal majesty had not been conferred; he shall come in without warning and obtain the kingdom through intrigue.H3653H5975H959H5414H1935H4438H935H7962H2388H4438H2519 22Armies shall be utterly swept away and broken before him, and the prince of the covenant as well.H2220H7858H7857H6440H7665H5057H1285 23And after an alliance is made with him, he shall act deceitfully and become strong with a small party.H2266H6213H4820H5927H6105H4592H1471 24Without warning he shall come into the richest parts of the province and do what none of his predecessors had ever done, lavishing plunder, spoil, and wealth on them. He shall devise plans against strongholds, but only for a time.H935H7962H4924H4082H6213H1H6213H1H1H967H961H7998H7399H2803H4284H4013H6256 25He shall stir up his power and determination against the king of the south with a great army, and the king of the south shall wage war with a much greater and stronger army. But he shall not succeed, for plots shall be devised against himH5782H3581H3824H4428H5045H1419H2428H4428H5045H1624H4421H3966H1419H6099H2428H5975H2803H4284 26by those who eat of the royal rations. They shall break him, his army shall be swept away, and many shall fall slain.H398H6598H7665H2428H7857H7227H5307H2491 27The two kings, their minds bent on evil, shall sit at one table and exchange lies. But it shall not succeed, for there remains an end at the time appointed.H8147H4428H3824H4827H7451H1696H3577H259H7979H6743H7093H4150 28He shall return to his land with great wealth, but his heart shall be set against the holy covenant. He shall work his will, and return to his own land.H7725H776H1419H7399H3824H6944H1285H6213H7725H776 29"At the time appointed he shall return and come into the south, but this time it shall not be as it was before.H4150H7725H935H5045H7223H314 30For ships of Kittim shall come against him, and he shall lose heart and withdraw. He shall be enraged and take action against the holy covenant. He shall turn back and pay heed to those who forsake the holy covenant.H6716H3794H935H3512H7725H2194H6944H1285H6213H7725H995H5800H6944H1285 31Forces sent by him shall occupy and profane the temple and fortress. They shall abolish the regular burnt offering and set up the abomination that makes desolate.H2220H5975H2490H4720H4581H5493H8548H5414H8251H8074 32He shall seduce with intrigue those who violate the covenant; but the people who are loyal to their God shall stand firm and take action.H7561H1285H2610H2514H5971H3045H430H2388H6213 33The wise among the people shall give understanding to many; for some days, however, they shall fall by sword and flame, and suffer captivity and plunder.H7919H5971H995H7227H3782H2719H3852H7628H961H3117 34When they fall victim, they shall receive a little help, and many shall join them insincerely.H3782H5826H4592H5828H7227H3867H2519 35Some of the wise shall fall, so that they may be refined, purified, and cleansed, until the time of the end, for there is still an interval until the time appointed.H7919H3782H6884H1305H3835H6256H7093H4150 36"The king shall act as he pleases. He shall exalt himself and consider himself greater than any god, and shall speak horrendous things against the God of gods. He shall prosper until the period of wrath is completed, for what is determined shall be done.H4428H6213H7522H7311H1431H410H1696H6381H410H410H6743H2195H3615H2782H6213 37He shall pay no respect to the gods of his ancestors, or to the one beloved by women; he shall pay no respect to any other god, for he shall consider himself greater than all.H995H430H1H2532H802H995H433H1431 38He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these; a god whom his ancestors did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts.H3653H3513H433H4581H433H1H3045H3513H2091H3701H3368H68H2532 39He shall deal with the strongest fortresses by the help of a foreign god. Those who acknowledge him he shall make more wealthy, and shall appoint them as rulers over many, and shall distribute the land for a price.H6213H4581H4013H5236H433H5234H5234H7235H3519H4910H7227H2505H127H4242

The Time of the End

40"At the time of the end the king of the south shall attack him. But the king of the north shall rush upon him like a whirlwind, with chariots and horsemen, and with many ships. He shall advance against countries and pass through like a flood.H6256H7093H4428H5045H5055H4428H6828H8175H7393H6571H7227H591H935H776H7857H5674 41He shall come into the beautiful land, and tens of thousands shall fall victim, but Edom and Moab and the main part of the Ammonites shall escape from his power.H935H6643H776H7227H3782H4422H3027H123H4124H7225H1121H5983 42He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.H7971H3027H776H776H4714H6413 43He shall become ruler of the treasures of gold and of silver, and all the riches of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall follow in his train.H4910H4362H2091H3701H2532H4714H3864H3569H4703 44But reports from the east and the north shall alarm him, and he shall go out with great fury to bring ruin and complete destruction to many.H8052H4217H6828H926H3318H1419H2534H8045H2763H7227 45He shall pitch his palatial tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with no one to help him.H5193H168H643H3220H6643H6944H2022H935H7093H5826
