Daniel 11:27–35

27 And both these kings’ †hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: tfor yet the end shall be at the time appointed. 28 Then shall he return into his land uwith great riches; and vhis heart shall be against wthe holy covenant; xand he shall do exploits, and return to his own land. 29 *tAt the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be yas the former, or as the latter. 30 †For the zships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation vagainst wthe holy covenant: xso shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with athem that forsake wthe holy covenant. 31 And arms shall stand on his part, and bthey shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and cshall take away the daily sacrifice, and dthey shall place the abomination that ||maketh desolate. 32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he ||ecorrupt fby flatteries: but the people that do know their God gshall be strong, and do exploits. 33 And hthey that understand among the people shall instruct many: iyet they shall kfall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 34 Now when they kshall fall, they shall be lholpen mwith a little help: but many shall cleave to them nwith flatteries. 35 And some of hthem of understanding kshall fall, oto try ||them, and opto purge, and oqto make them white, even to rthe time of the end: sbecause it is yet for a time appointed.
