Daniel 11:29-39

[29] At the time appointed  he shall return,  and come  toward the south;  but it shall not be as the former,  or as the latter.  [30] For the ships  of Chittim  shall come  against him: therefore he shall be grieved,  and return,  and have indignation  against the holy  covenant:  so shall he do;  he shall even return,  and have intelligence  with them that forsake  the holy  covenant.  [31] And arms  shall stand  on his part, and they shall pollute  the sanctuary  of strength,  and shall take away  the daily  sacrifice, and they shall place  the abomination  that maketh desolate.  [32] And such as do wickedly  against the covenant  shall he corrupt  by flatteries:  but the people  that do know  their God  shall be strong,  and do  [33] And 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.  [34] Now when they shall fall,  they shall be holpen  with a little  help:  but many  shall cleave  to them with flatteries.  [35] And 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.  [36] And the king  shall do  according to his will;  and he shall exalt  himself, and magnify  himself above every god,  and shall speak  marvellous things  against the God  and shall prosper  till the indignation  be accomplished:  for that that is determined  shall be done.  [37] Neither shall he regard  the God  of his fathers,  nor the desire  of women,  nor regard  any god:  for he shall magnify  [38] But in his estate  shall he honour  the God  of forces:  and a god  whom his fathers  knew  not shall he honour  with gold,  and silver,  and with precious  stones,  [39] Thus shall he do  in the most strong  holds  with a strange  god,  whom he shall acknowledge  and increase  with glory:  and he shall cause them to rule  over many,  and shall divide  the land  for gain.
