Daniel 11:30-39

30For shipsH6716 of 12KittimH3794 will comeH935 against him; therefore he will be disheartenedH3512 and will returnH7725 and becomeH2194 enragedH2194 at the holyH6944 covenantH1285 and takeH6213 actionH6213; so he will comeH7725 backH7725 and showH995 regardH995 for those who forsakeH5800 the holyH6944 covenantH1285. 31ForcesH2220 from him will ariseH5975, 3desecrateH2490 the sanctuaryH4720 fortressH4581, and doH5493 awayH5493 with the regularH8548 sacrificeH8548. And they will setH5414 up the 4abominationH8251 5of desolationH8074. 32By 6smoothH2514 words he will 7turnH2610 to godlessnessH2610 those who actH7561 wickedlyH7561 toward the covenantH1285, but the peopleH5971 who knowH3045 their GodH430 will displayH2388 8strengthH2388 and takeH6213 actionH6213. 33910Those who haveH7919 insightH7919 among the peopleH5971 will giveH995 understandingH995 to the manyH7227; yet they will 11fallH3782 by swordH2719 and by flameH3852, by captivityH7628 and by plunderH961 for many daysH3117. 34Now when they fallH3782 they will be grantedH5826 a littleH4592 helpH5828, and manyH7227 will 12joinH3867 with them in 13hypocrisyH2519. 35SomeH4480 of 14those who haveH7919 insightH7919 will fallH3782, in order to 15refineH6884, 16purgeH1305 and makeH3835 them 1718pureH3835 untilH5704 the 19endH7093 timeH6256; becauseH3588 it is stillH5750 to come at the appointedH4150 timeH4150.

36“Then the kingH4428 will 20doH6213 as he pleasesH7522, and he will exaltH7311 and 21magnifyH1431 himself aboveH5921 everyH3605 godH410 and will 22speakH1696 23monstrousH6381 thingsH6381 againstH5921 the 24GodH410 of godsH410; and he will prosperH6743 untilH5704 the 25indignationH2195 is finishedH3615, for that which is 26decreedH2782 will be doneH6213. 37He will showH995 noH3808 regardH995 for the 27godsH430 of his fathersH1 or for the desireH2532 of womenH802, norH3808 will he showH995 regardH995 for anyH3605 other godH433; for he will magnifyH1431 himself aboveH5921 them allH3605. 38But 28insteadH5921H3653 he will honorH3513 a godH433 of fortressesH4581, a godH433 whomH834 his fathersH1 did not knowH3045; he will honorH3513 him with goldH2091, silverH3701, costlyH3368 stonesH68 and treasuresH2536. 39He will takeH6213 actionH6213 against the strongestH4581 of fortressesH4581 with the help of a foreignH5236 godH433; he will giveH7235 greatH7235 honorH3519 to 29those whoH834 acknowledgeH5234 him and will cause them to ruleH4910 over the manyH7227, and will parcelH2505 out landH127 for a priceH4242.
