Daniel 11:10-19

10“And his sons will mobilize and assemble a multitude of great forces; and one of them will keep on coming and 1overflow and pass through, so that he may 2again wage war up to his fortress. 11And the 3king of the South will be enraged and go out and fight 4with the king of the North. Then the latter will raise a great multitude, but that multitude will be handed over to 5the former. 12When the multitude is carried away, his heart will 6be haughty, and he will cause tens of thousands to fall; yet he will not prevail. 13For the king of the North will again raise a greater multitude than the former, and 7after an 8interval of some years he will 9press 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 raise themselves up to fulfill the vision, but they will 10fall down. 15Then the king of the North will come, pile up an 11assault ramp, and capture a well-fortified city; and the forces of the South will not stand their ground, not even 12their choicest troops, for there will be no strength to make a stand. 16But he who comes against him will 13do as he pleases, and 14no one will be able to withstand him; he will also stay for a time in the 1516Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand. 17And he will 17set his 18mind on coming with the power of his entire kingdom, 19bringing with him 20a 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 21on his side. 18Then he will turn his face to the 22coastlands and capture many. But a commander will put a stop to his taunting against him; moreover, he will 23repay him for his taunting. 19So he will turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will 24stumble and fall and not be 25found.
