Daniel 11:21-23

Good News Translation

The Evil King of Syria

²¹ The angel went on to explain: “The next king of Syria will be an evil man who has no right to be king, but he will come unexpectedly and seize power by trickery. ²² Anyone who opposes him, even God's High Priest, will be swept away and wiped out. ²³ By making treaties, he will deceive other nations, and he will grow stronger and stronger, even though he rules only a small nation.
