Daniel 11:13-19

13For the king of the North will again raise a greater multitude than the former, and 1after an 2interval of some years he will 3press on with a great army and much equipment.

14“Now in those times many will rise up against the king of the South; the violent ones among your people will also lift themselves up in order to fulfill the vision, but they will 4fall down. 15Then the king of the North will come, cast up a 5siege ramp and capture a well-fortified city; and the forces of the South will not stand their ground, not even 6their choicest troops, for there will be no strength to make a stand. 16But he who comes against him will 7do as he pleases, and 8no one will be able to withstand him; he will also stay for a time in the 910Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand. 17He will 11set his face to come with the power of his whole kingdom, 12bringing with him 13a proposal of peace which he will put into effect; he will also give him the daughter of women to ruin it. But she will not take a stand for him or be 14on his side. 18Then he will turn his face to the 15coastlands and capture many. But a commander will put a stop to his scorn against him; moreover, he will 16repay him for his scorn. 19So he will turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will 17stumble and fall and be 18found no more.
