Context of Daniel 11:43

41He will march into the Beautiful Land. He will kill many thousands of the people there. But these people will escape from his power: the people of Edom and Moab, and the leaders of Ammon. 42He will have power over many countries. The country of Egypt will not escape. He will take away from Egypt the gold, silver and other valuable things. The people of Libya and Ethiopia will be under his power. 44But he will become afraid when he hears news from the east and the north. It will cause him to be very angry. He will go with his army to destroy many people. 45He will put up his royal tents between the seas, at the holy mountain. But he will die there and nobody will help him.’
