Daniel 11:32-35

32And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits .1 33And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 34Now when they shall fall, they shall be helped with a little help: but many shall join with them with flatteries. 35And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.2
