But a king of the south, will become strong, even from among his rulers, - and will prevail against him, and have authority, a great authority, shall his authority be.

And, at the end of years, they will league together, yea, the daughter of the king of the south, will go in unto the king of the north, to make peace, but she shall not retain strength of arm, neither shall he stand, nor his arm, but she shall be delivered up - she herself, and they who brought her in, and he who begat her, and he that strengthened her in the times.

But one will stand up from the sprout of her roots, in his stead, - and he will enter the army, and enter into a fortress of the king of the north, and deal with them and shew himself strong;

Then the king of the north will advance against the empire of the king of the south, but will withdraw to his own land.

But, his sons, will rouse themselves to war, and gather together a multitude of large armies, but he will come on and on, and overflow and pass through, - and will return and wage war, up to his fortress.

Then will the king of the south, be enraged, and go forth and fight with him, with the king of the north, - and will raise a great multitude, but the multitude, will be delivered, into his hand.

And, when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart, will he uplifted, - and he will cause tens of thousands to fall, but will not conquer.

And, in those times, many, will rise against the king of the south, - and, the sons of the oppressors of thy people, will exalt themselves to confirm the vision, but will be overthrown.

So the king of the north will come, and put up earthworks and take a well-armed town: and the forces of the king of the south will make an attempt to keep their position, even the best of his army, but they will not have strength to do so.

But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.

Then will he set his face to enter, with the might of all his kingdom, and, equitable terms with him, will make, - and, a daughter of women, will he give him to corrupt her, but she will not remain, nor, his, shall she become.

Then will he turn his face to the Coastlands, and will capture many, - but a commander, will bring to an end, his reproach against himself, that, his reproach, return not unto him.

Therefore will he turn his face towards the fortresses of his land, - but he shall stagger and fall, and shall not be found.

Then will rise up in his stead, one causing an exactor to pass through the ornament of the kingdom, - but, in a few days, shall he be broken in pieces, not with anger, nor in battle.

Then will rise up in his stead, one despised, and they will not lay upon him the dignity of the kingdom, - but he will come in unexpectedly, and strengthen the kingdom by flatteries;

In a time of prosperity for the most productive areas of the province he will come and accomplish what neither his fathers nor their fathers accomplished. He will distribute loot, spoils, and property to his followers, and he will devise plans against fortified cities, but not for long.

Then will he stir up his strength and his heart, against the king of the south, with a great army, and, the king of the south, will wage war, with a great and exceedingly mighty army, - but will make no stand, for they will devise against him plots;

Those who eat his choice food will destroy him, and his army will overflow, but many will fall down slain.

Now, as for the two kings, their heart, will be set on acting wickedly, and, at one table, will they speak, falsehood, - but it shall not succeed, for yet is the end for an appointed time.

Then he will return to his land with much plunder; but his heart will be set against the holy covenant, and he will take action and then return to his own land.

At the appointed time, will he again enter the south, - but it shall not be like the former, nor like the latter.

And, them who are ready to deal lawlessly with a covenant, will he make impious by flatteries, - but, the people who know their God, will be strong and act with effect.

And those who are wise among the people will be the teachers of the mass of the people: but they will come to their downfall by the sword and by the flame, being made prisoners and undergoing loss for a long time.

but, when they are brought low, they shall be helped with a little help, - and many, will join themselves unto them, by flatteries;

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, and pleasant things.

“At the time of the end, the king of the South will engage him in battle, but the king of the North will storm against him with chariots, horsemen, and many ships. He will invade countries and sweep through them like a flood.

yea he will enter the beautiful land, and, many lands , shall be laid low, - but, these, shall be delivered out of his hand, Edom and Moab, and the first portion of the sons of Ammon;

Then he will stretch out his hand against other countries, but Egypt will not be among the ones which escape.

But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

but, tidings, will terrify him, out of the east, and out of the north, - therefore will he go forth with great fury, to destroy and to devote many;

and will plant his palace-home between the seas, towards the beautiful holy mountain, but shall come to his end, with none to help him.

"At that time Michael, the great prince who watches over your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress unlike any other from the nation's beginning up to that time. But at that time your own people, all those whose names are found written in the book, will escape.

and, many of the sleepers in the dusty ground, shall awake, - these, shall be to age-abiding life, but, those, to reproach, and age-abiding abhorrence;

But the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavenly expanse. And those bringing many to righteousness will be like the stars forever and ever.

But, thou, Daniel, close up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end, - many will run to and fro, and knowledge, shall abound.

And, I, heard, but could not understand, - so I said, O my lord! what shall be the issue of these things?

Many, will purify themselves and be made white and be refined, but the lawless, will act lawlessly, and none of the lawless, shall understand, - but, they who make wise, shall understand;

But, thou, go thy way to the end, - and thou shalt rest, and shalt rise to thy lot at the end of the days.
