Daniel 11:28-35

28 And he shall return to his land with great wealth, but his heart shall be set against the holy covenant. And he shall work his will and return to his own land.

29 “At the time appointed he shall return and come into the south, but it shall not be this time as it was before. 30 For ships of ^aKittim shall come against him, and he shall be afraid and withdraw, and shall turn back and ^bbe enraged and ^ctake action against the holy covenant. He shall turn back and pay attention to those who forsake the holy covenant. 31 Forces from him shall appear and ^dprofane the temple and fortress, and shall take away the regular burnt offering. And ^ethey shall set up the abomination that makes desolate. 32 He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. 33 ^fAnd the wise among the people shall make many understand, though for some days they shall stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plunder. 34 When they stumble, they shall receive a little help. And many shall join themselves to them with flattery, 35 and some of the wise shall stumble, so that they may be refined, ^gpurified, and ^hmade white, until ⁱthe time of the end, ^jfor it still awaits the appointed time.
