Daniel 11:37-45
37He will show no regard for the 1gods of his fathers or for the desire of women, nor will he show regard for any other god; for he will magnify himself above them all. 38But 2instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor him with gold, silver, costly stones and treasures. 39He will take action against the strongest of fortresses with the help of a foreign god; he will give great honor to 3those who acknowledge him and will cause them to rule over the many, and will parcel out land for a price.
40“At the 4end time the 5king of the South will collide with him, and the 6king of the North will 7storm against him with chariots, with horsemen and with many ships; and he will enter countries, 8overflow them and pass through. 41He will also enter the 910Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall; but these will be rescued out of his hand: Edom, 11Moab and the foremost of the sons of 12Ammon. 42Then he will stretch out his hand against other countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape. 43But he will 13gain control over the hidden treasures of gold and silver and over all the precious things of Egypt; and 14Libyans and 15Ethiopians will follow at his 16heels. 44But rumors from the East and from the North will disturb him, and he will go forth with great wrath to destroy and 17annihilate many. 45He will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful 18Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
