³⁰ Ships from Kittim will come against him, and he will be humbled.^[a]

Then he will turn and become furious against the holy covenant and take action. He will return and show favor to those who abandon the holy covenant.

⁴⁰ Then, at the time of the end, the King of the South will wage war against him, and the King of the North will storm out against him with chariots, horsemen, and many ships. He will enter countries like a flood and overflow them.
