Daniel 11:13-20

13For the kingH4428 of the NorthH6828 will againH7725 raiseH5975 a greaterH7227 multitudeH1995 thanH4480 the formerH7223, and 1afterH7093 an 2intervalH6256 ofH6256 someH6256 yearsH8141 he will 3pressH935 on with a greatH1419 armyH2428 and muchH7227 equipmentH7399.

14“Now in thoseH1992 timesH6256 manyH7227 will riseH5975 up againstH5921 the kingH4428 of the SouthH5045; the violentH6530 onesH1121 among your peopleH5971 will also raiseH5375 themselves upH5375 to fulfillH5975 the visionH2377, but they will 4fallH3782 downH3782. 15Then the kingH4428 of the NorthH6828 will comeH935, pileH8210 upH8210 an 5assaultH5550 rampH5550, and captureH3920 a well-fortifiedH4013 cityH5892; and the forcesH2220 of the SouthH5045 will not standH5975 their ground, not even 6their choicestH4005 troopsH5971, for thereH369 willH369 beH369 noH369 strengthH3581 to makeH5975 aH5975 standH5975. 16But he who comesH935 againstH413 him will 7doH6213 as he pleasesH7522, and 8noH369 oneH369 will be able to withstandH6440H5975 him; he will also stayH5975 for a time in the 910BeautifulH6643 LandH776, with destructionH3617 in his handH3027. 17And he will 11setH7760 his 12mindH6440 on comingH935 with the powerH8633 of his entireH3605 kingdomH4438, 13bringing with him 14a proposalH3476 ofH3476 peaceH3476 which he will putH6213 intoH6213 effectH6213; he will also giveH5414 him the daughterH1323 of womenH802 to ruinH7843 it. But she will not takeH5975 aH5975 standH5975 for him or be 15on his side. 18Then he will turnH7725 his faceH6440 to the 16coastlandsH339 and captureH3920 manyH7227. But a commanderH7101 will putH7673 aH7673 stopH7673 toH7673 his tauntingH2781 against him; moreoverH1115, he will 17repayH7725 him for his tauntingH2781. 19So he will turnH7725 his faceH6440 toward the fortressesH4581 of his own landH776, but he will 18stumbleH3782 and fallH5307 and not be 19foundH4672.

20“Then in his placeH3653 one will ariseH5975 who will 20allow an 21oppressorH5065 to passH5674 throughH5674 the 22JewelH1925 of his kingdomH4438; yet within a fewH259 daysH3117 he will be brokenH7665, though not in angerH639 norH3808 in battleH4421.
