Daniel 11:29-35

29“At the appointed time he will return and come into the South, but 1this last time it will not turn out the way it did before. 30For ships of 23Kittim will come against him; therefore he will be disheartened and will return and become enraged at the holy covenant and take action; so he will come back and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant. 31Forces from him will arise, 4desecrate the sanctuary fortress, and do away with the regular sacrifice. And they will set up the 5abomination 6of desolation. 32By 7smooth words he will 8turn to godlessness those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but the people who know their God will display 9strength and take action. 331011Those who have insight among the people will give understanding to the many; yet they will 12fall by sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for many days. 34Now when they fall they will be granted a little help, and many will 13join with them in 14hypocrisy. 35Some of 15those who have insight will fall, in order to 16refine, 17purge and make them 1819pure until the 20end time; because it is still to come at the appointed time.
