Daniel 11:22-24

New Catholic Bible

²² A powerful army shall be completely routed and crushed by him. Both it and the prince of the covenant^[a] will be destroyed.

²³ “After he enters into an alliance, he will act deceitfully, and by treacherous means he will rise to power with only a few supporters. ²⁴ Without advance warning he will invade the most prosperous provinces and do what his fathers or his grandfathers had never done, lavishing plunder, spoil, and riches among them, yet all the while devising plans against their strongholds, but only for a time.
