Daniel 11:9-15

9He will invade the southern kingdom and return to his own country.

10“Then his sons will prepare for war. They will assemble a large number of forces so that they can overwhelm ⌞the enemy⌟ and pass through its land. They will return and wage war all the way to the stronghold.

11The southern king will be outraged. He will go to fight the northern king, who will raise a large army that will fall into the southern king’s hands.

12When that army is captured, the southern king will become conceited. Although he will dominate tens of thousands of people, he will not always be strong.

13“The northern king will return and raise an army larger than the first one. After a few years he will invade with a large army and a lot of equipment.

14In those times many people will rebel against the southern king, and violent men from your own people will rebel in keeping with this vision, but they will be defeated.

15Then the northern king will come, build dirt attack ramps, and capture a fortified city. The southern forces will not be able to withstand him. Even their best troops will not be strong enough.
