Daniel 11:38-45

38But 1instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor him with gold, silver, precious stones, and treasures. 39And he will take action against the strongest of fortresses with the help of a foreign god; he will give great honor to 2those who acknowledge him and will make them rulers over the many, and will parcel out land for a price.

40“And at the 3end time the 4king of the South will wage war with him, and the 5king of the North will 6storm against him with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter countries, 7overflow them, and pass through. 41He will also enter the 89Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall; but these will be rescued out of his hand: Edom, 10Moab, and the foremost of the sons of 11Ammon. 42Then he will reach out with his hand against other countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape. 43But he will 12gain control over the hidden treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and 13Libyans and 14Ethiopians will follow at his 15heels. 44But rumors from the East and from the North will terrify him, and he will go out with great wrath to eliminate and 16annihilate many. 45And he will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful 17Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
