6And at the end of some years they will make an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a peace treaty, but she will not retain her position of power,k and his offspringl will not endure, and she will be given up, she and her attendants and her child supporting her, in those times.m 7And a branch from her rootsn will rise up in his place, and he will come against the army and he will enter the stronghold of the king of the north and he will take action against them and he will prevail. 8And also their gods with their idols and with the precious vessels,o silver and gold he will take to Egypt into captivity, and for years he will leave the king of the north alone.p 9And then heq will come into the kingdom of the king of the south, but he will return to his land.

10“But his sons will wage war and they will gather a multitude of great forces and he will advance with great force,r and he will overflow like a flood and he will pass through and he will return, and they will wage war up to his fortress. 11And the king of the south will become furious, and he will go and he will battle against him, against the king of the north; and he will muster a great multitude, and the multitude will be given into his hand. 12When the multitude is carried off, his heart will be exalted and he will overthrow tens of thousands,s but he will not prevail. 13And the king of the north will again raise a multitude, greater than the former, and at the end of some yearst he will surely come with a great army and with great supplies.u

14“And in these times many will rise up against the king of the south, and the violent ones of your peoplev will lift themselves to fulfillw the vision, but they will fall. 15And the king of the north will come, and he will throw up siege rampsx and capture a city of fortifications and the military forces of the south and his choice troopsy will not stand, forz there is no strength left to resist.
