Daniel 11:33-35

New Century Version

³³ “Those who are wise will help the others understand what is happening. But they will be killed with swords, or burned, or taken captive, or robbed of their homes and possessions. These things will continue for many days. ³⁴ When the wise ones are suffering, they will get a little help, but many who join the wise ones will not help them in their time of need. ³⁵ Some of the wise ones will be killed. But the hard times must come so they can be made stronger and purer and without faults until the time of the end comes. Then, at the right time, the end will come.
