Daniel 11:15–20

¹⁵Then the king of the North will come, build up a siege ramp,^b and capture a well-fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their select troops will not be able to resist. ¹⁶The king of the North who comes against him will do whatever he wants,^c and no one can oppose him. He will establish himself in the beautiful land^Ed with total destruction in his hand. ¹⁷He will resolve^e to come with the force of his whole kingdom and will reach an agreement with him.^F He will give him a daughter in marriage^G to destroy it,^H but she will not stand with him or support him. ¹⁸Then he will turn his attention to the coasts and islands^If and capture many. But a commander will put an end to his taunting; instead, he will turn his taunts against him.^{g 19}He will turn his attention back to the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble, fall,^h and be no more.ⁱ

²⁰“In his place one will arise who will send out a tax collector^j for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he will be broken, though not in anger^J or in battle.
