And he commanded {the strongest men of the guards} who [were] in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and to throw [them] into the furnace of blazing fire.

And a branch from her roots will rise up [in] his place, and he will come against the army and he will enter the stronghold of the king of the north and he will take action against them and he will prevail.

And the king of the north will again raise a multitude, greater than the former, and {at the end of some years} he will surely come with great army and with great supplies.

And he will stir up his power and his heart against the king of the south and {with a much greater and stronger army}; but he will not succeed, for they will devise plans against him.

And those who eat of his royal rations will break him and his army will be overwhelmed, and many will fall, slain.
